Beemer18 - thanks for taking time to answer the 3 questions I originally asked , much appreciated mate
Yeah , you are right , if , initially I am only going over to visit her for the 1st time , who cares what they think of the English...lol
Is it doomed..I asked that question because I think relationships with people who live around the corner or in the same town/city or country are hard enough...in another country especially an Eastern European one may be a step too far
Sax,
One last thing, relationship are hard wherever you are at, even around the corner. My feeling is these girls, at a great distance seem more willing to become a partner than girls around the corner. They seem to know more about what they want in life than girl next door(at least in USA). I would put more emphasis on where you are going than where you have been.
beemer - yes , you could be right there . She does seem to want to know the ins and outs (so to speak) and every detail of my life to date..I wonder why ..lol
Of course , I would much prefer to keep a few personal details from her...like why is a guy looking on the Internet in the first place.?
As I say , as to where I am going..I cannot ever see myself living in Moldova so I guess I will have to try and use all the persuasive powers at my disposal and even then , this may not be enough !
kingarthur , look I am English mate not Scottish , I do not think there is any chance of me wearing a kilt...I was thinking more about wearing a James Bond style Tuxedo...lol
Always giving the impression , I have money even if I don't !!
Cheers
Sax,
The details give girls the thought of how serious or truthful you are. Should not be a problem if you tell the truth. If she asks you why you are on internet tell her the truth.....I could not find someone to share my life with at home, so I decided to search the world for my partner....... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!!!
Actually, it is the truth but it does sound rather nice I must say. Girls seem to love it!!!!
You also should not even have one thought about living in Moldova, be upfront on looking for a partner to bring home. Let her decide what she is going to do!! Good luck
I must put you all right on this one, if you are English you need a visa, it costs about 60 euros and you get it from the airport. There is an Embassy in England so if needed you can get it from there.
I am English have been in and out of Moldova for 14 years, the people are good and the country o.k My Moldovan woman of 13 years loves my country and her own. When i was first in Moldova there was no other westerners so to be one was a big attraction. Now 25% of Moldovans live in other countrys so they have many choices. They lovthe English (well the girls do) because we know how to look after them. Their own men at best beat them.
Papillon - Thanks for taking the time to reply , much appreciated mate.
It seems there is a lot of confusion both on this forum and in general about whether I need a visa or not to enter Moldova , I guess I will have to ring the Embassy as you suggest and be on the phone for hours waiting for an answer...lol
I am pleased to hear that the Moldovan people and the women , in particular , like the English guys because I am a good guy.., my only problem is that I like everything to go my way (don't we all)
My major concern is trying to persuade the girl to leave her country and move to mine !!
Cheers
PS Papillon was a fantastic film with Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen....:-)
What a film not named after me I will say but I relate to it. I will tell you again you need a visa we are English and do not get a feebe like the Yanks its 60 euros, I was in Moldova a few weeks ago with my kids and nothing has changed. Down load the form from www.moldova.org fill it in on the plain, you do not need photo just your hard earned cash. If you are a nice guy collect some of the uneaten food from the plain and give it to the beggers when they come up to your car window at traffic lights. I have been doing this for years and its ok. As for living in Moldova why not? Answer that if you can. I have been going there for 14 years must be one of the first and its home, yes I am English (not British like some would like to tell me)but there is something about the place and at the end of the day if its love you are looking for its not important where you live.
Papillon , you have just put me off going mate , beggers coming up to car windows - the very thought !
You are correct when you say about love though , I guess if you find true love , it does not matter where you live
My problem is that I am yet to find it ....
Sorry you feel that way, about going. You will also find many other places that you must cross off your I must go one day list as there are beggers all over the world. Last time I was in London there were beggers on every street. I could tell you many other interesting thinks about Moldova but as your not going now.
This reply is for Saxophone. I am a Moldavian young lady who was in the situation you are describing. I suggest that if you are looking for a solemate, you go and see your girl!!!!!!!!!!! Moldovan people have values that other nations don't value so much. That is why my American husband came to Moldova 5 times during one year to be with me. We have a wonderful relationship. We are married for over a year now. Moldovan people aren't so desperate to leave the country as you were saying. No, they don't wanna leave. They have to leave. As for your girl, if you guys fall madly in love with each other, she will move to England, as I did moving to USA with my husband. I will tell you the truth, we are contemplating moving to an eastern european country in the future.
As for visa, there is an ambasador at the Airport who gives you the visa before exiting the customs. My husband always applied for a visa at the Moldovian Embassy in USA, which I am sure should be in England, too. Maybe you should find one in England and they can answer all your questions.
If you want to marry with her you must visit her and her family. First of all you must contact with her about your feelings and visit. after receiving reply you decision will be open.
