I spoke with people from Cheboksary, all told me - it's ok with payment and work in ouer sity.Every second have a mobile phone.Tineger's all have a mobile phone,so if she dont have, her frend's have 100%.
sorry, that's another possible flag raised. Yeah, those things happen, same like grannies getting sick, people needing operations, fridges breaking down and whatever else, but these things are more often abused also.
Now then, IF she's unreal - and it really looks like that - she will KNOW you're affected by your feelings, or as you put it the intrigue is killing you. Telling you she won't ask you for money when telling she's got none anymore is almost asking, don't you agree?
So - wait! See what happens, sit back and relax. If you'd love someone you surely would make a plan and get hold of her mail? She will too, and when she does she should find an urgent message asking for her home-address and 'a' telephone number in her flat-block for you to phone to. As simple as that, nothing more.
Odds are she won't answer that Socal, but patience always pays.
Have no doubt that she will find your message(s) sooner or later, and by judging what she'll send back you can take the next step.
Not now, and certainly not by sending her anything, and such would arrive after New Year in any case. So relax, and have a great party!
Hey Beyond Thunderdome, you're right shit does happen, hopefully it's legit. For now I'm getting ready to head Sydney, Australia on New Years for 5 days. There's a big Russian community there. So what I will do is pick up a calling card for her. It will be cheaper there with the exchange rate. I can call the USA 400 minutes for 10 ausd....about 8.70 usd. So my investment will be small, but hopefully it will pay dividends. Of course, since I just found out about the purse snatching, I'll be sensitive to a point.....but I gotta get some answers. 22 days of her e-mailing me.....says something to me.....this gal is hot with a capital "H". I've seen some gorgeous women all over the world, but what make this tough is the lack of contact. At least in other countries you meet them in person in pubs, bar or the dance scene.....but the internet scene is a different animal. Again, I'm going to hammer home about the need for a street address for flowers to cheer her up.....that's a good one! Just in case she really got her purse snatched......also, like Stranger said, if she doesn't have a phone SOMEBODY SHE KNOWS HAS TO HAVE ONE, RIGHT? and as Scott just said, she'll probably keep writing to me as nothing has happened AND avoiding my question once again. BUT, I'll give her couple of more tries and that is it. I'll hit her with the I'm sorry 'bout purse snatching, but.......I need to know.....blah, blah, blah. Then if she pulls what Scott thinks she will.....then I'll just have to move on and start writing to the girls on this site. Whaddya think? Late, Socalboy
My wife comes from Cheboksary and i have traveled this route.
If you have any questions or i can help you with anything e-mail direct and i shall do my best to help. I shall be returning there myself shortly.
Hey Southern, when are you planning to go? Hopefully for me mid-February I will venture there. If you're leaving soon....maybe I should have you check on this girl I'm interested in. As you can tell by my forum entries, I'm having a tough time reading this gal. The one thing that is constant....is her writing to me for 23 straight days. So in some respects there's a fair amount of loyalty.....but certainly also a fair amount of red flags. Let me know when you're heading out.....
Hey Bob, I've already looked into flights to Cheboksary. Hopefully I'll be going in Mid-February. Moscow has three airports, but only one them serves Cheboksary. (VKO), Vnukuvo Airport has two flights a day to Cheboksary (CSY). There's one at 9:30 am and 6:25 pm. It served by the country airline, Aeroflot. Depending on when you are going....go to OAG.Com.....(official airline guide)It's the bible for the traveling industry. It tells you how you van get anywhere in the world. Also, you can take a train from Moscow, 12 hours for about 40 usd. Earlier in this forum I was told that. The guys on the forum as you know are very helpful. Late, Socalboy
what I think? I think you must have a ball down under, and not worry about your mail for some days. I'd tell her that too, after all you won't be home, but you will expect to find the requested details upon your return.
In fact Socal, if you find that she has been mailing you but not what you asked for - I'd forget her.
Have fun, enjoy the X-rated kangaroo-juice, and good luck.
I received a letter from a lady in Ekaterinburg about monthly money issues yesterday. It was interesting. We were talking about a story she told me about some poor guy who got ripped off. Anyway, I said $150 was plenty to live off in FSU. She took me to task over this with very specific examples. Therefore all this stuff I am reading about $10 a week is a lot of money there and $50 is a months wages I have to argue with. BTW this lady and I are not romantically involved we are just friends, I have the romance covered elsewhere, there is no axe to grind here just genuine input from her.
Socalboy,
Thanks for the info. I am planning on the week after Easter. Let me know how things turn out with your flight arrangments. This is all so scary. What airline will you be flying? Bob
Hey Thunderdome, Yeah, I am looking forward to the New Year, especially down under. It's been raining a lot lately here so I'm looking forward to summertime and heading to the beaches. I'll be wearing my darkest sunglasses to stare at all of the beautiful Aussie breast. Right?......So, anyhow, I woke up this morning and received a two sentence letter from my Cheboksary babe, saying she has no money for the internet cafe to write me everyday.....but also to wish me a Happy New Year. Of course last night when I wrote her, I was "Mr. Sympathic", I really was....ask if she was hurt?, did she file a police report?, were there other witnesses? Then I said to her I liked to cheer her up with a bouquet of flowers, BUT I need her street address, florist cannot deliver to a p.o. box....again, she failed to give me her street address. Also, AGAIN I asked for a phone number I could call her at....Grandparents, Aunts,Uncles or girlfriends. Since she has no money I could do that and make the time change arrangements. This gal just does'nt want to give that shit up! To back up a little, maybe a week and a half ago. I forgot to mention to you guys that I talk about the "getting scammed" by her. I mentioned some of my friends....."the forum dudes", got scammed and I wasn't going to cough up any money until after we met....in her country. So she knows not to "go there". Again, her note was two sentences, shortest ever from her. So, I'll just let things slide until I get back to the USA. I'm curious, Since I've been on the FORUM, I haven't read many success stories, I guess I have to get caught up on some back forum discussions. So, anyhow.....I'm going to a great NEW YEAR'S tonight. I'll be good because I don't want to go to Sydney tomorrow night with a hangover!!! Happy New Year Mates, g'daye.......Socalboy
Hey Bob, If things work out.....I'll go to London on United.....then I've got plenty of choices to Moscow....British Airways, Delta and Aeroflot, the Russian carrier.....they are my last choice. From Moscow to Cheboksary.....it's a Russian Commuter airline. Don't know what the name of it is.....could be Aeroflot express....lol.......anyhow, I'm looking for a trip in mid-february. Late, Socalboy........ps, it is scary!
I suppose it depends on who you ask hence who's talking. I know of a doctor in Spb who makes $50, and obviously cannot live on that. A second job proves more lucrative, and in fact this money is for her to live on.
I'm sure in Moscow $50 cannot be rented for let alone be lived on, but more rural this amount is a monthly salary for someone doing some admin work.
Ekaterinburg too is not a small city hence I'm not surprised at all that there also one's personal monthly 'turnover' is higher.
Interesting relationship you've got with her - how did you do that?
I'd send her a two-liner also, just before you leave:
" Honey, when I return from my trip on X January I only expect you to have sent me your personal details in full - nothing else ;-) If I won't find that then this is my last mail to you. "
Hi :) The whole travelling part has become like an nightmare for me.. lol.. I have become very selective about the girls and where they live. Is there a huge airport in their city? How far from a big city? trains, buses? In a way I don't wan't to meet a citygirl, but for now it seems a whole lot easier. Cheboksary? Jeeeeezeeeezzzzz... I had this girl I wrote to there, Anna Kolesnikova (scammer that almost got me..), it is almost easier to go there by horse than with public transportation... I say to myself: Be realistic! If you find a girl out there, she might wanna go home some times to visit family.. Do you want a whole day in a plane and then 17 hours trainride to see your mother in law? I don't think so... At least I don't..
Hey Norwegian, couldn't agree with you more. That's what is bothering about this situtation. So many connections just to get to Moscow......then you have to change airports in Moscow to connect to Cheboksary.....or take a 12 hour train ride to there. For me it's a moot point because I'm not writing the girl from Cheboksary anymore. I won't give any money to someone I've never met before. So forum dudes beware of Olga, 24 years old from Cheboksary, #1103653119, from the city-of-brides.com.......thanks to super slueth Scott! Late, Socalboy
Socal
I am in the same area of the country you are. Areoflot has direct flights from LA to Moscow
for less than $700. I know you have ended communication with Olga so this info would be for future consideration.
