Again, no rational man will walk into (marry into) a situation where he has paired himself up with a scammer or a gold-digger, yet men often discover that to be the very fact only too late. May you be one of the fortunate men who never finds himself in that unintended situation. FSULover Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/12/2010 8:44:58 PM   Jetmba, two comments: 1) I did meet girls who were gold-diggers and/or scammers, reason why I said that they are easy to spot. Genuine girls related to me in a very different way ... or maybe I was just lucky :-) 2) I do not have an opulent lifestyle. The hotel points and airline miles that I use for free vacations are a perk from my hard work and the nuisance of having to travel for work. My wife knows our financial limits, reason why she never did, and seldom asks me for any money. The only thing she asked for recently was to pay for a hair salon (second time in six months together). I even invited her shopping for new clothes and her answer was that she does not need new clothes ... until she can pay for it herself jetmba. Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/12/2010 10:00:45 PM   FSULover: Just as an aside... I once spent a week with an FSU lady and she didn't ask me for anything. I knew she did n't have much money, so as the week concluded I asked her if I could take her shopping. We went to her favorite clothing store and on my insistance I asked her to find something that she liked. She seemed put off by the request and pointed somethings out only vaguely. Just as quickly she(me following) exited the store. I asked her why she hadn't been more specific and pciked out any thing specifically as it was my intention to buy her some things. She seemed surprised and (incredulous as a matter of fact) and asked me why I would want to do that? I told her it was because I could, that I enjoyed the week I spent with her and that I knew she had a very small salary. She told me that she would save her money, what little she had, and that she would eventually buy the clothes she wanted. Reluctantly, she accompanied me back into the store where I made some selections as best I could based on the limited information that she had given me. She was shy (and proud) but seemed very appreciative and thankful. And shortly after I returned to the US she requested $28,000 to buy an apartment (this was in 2004) and to pay for schooling.

You know we've never met, but I am SURE you're not that type! Nothing to do with your income at all, I'm actually convinced you'd surprise many here, but it just does not 'suit' you Jet, just my 2c's. Neither, and for precisely the same reasons, does it Nasfan, another old hand here. The 3 (or 4, Nas?) of us should genuinely make a plan to travel Europe, by bike, I suggest a BMW tourer. I know for a fact Nas will laugh at this 'task', however I'm unsure about you Jet - got a license at least? If not pls just get one, zero rocket science involved. You will love it, like LOVE it, and then we can start organizing this trip before we get senile, old, demented and get Altzheimer.... what were we talking about again eh? ;-) Keep me informed Gents, time for action in this respect. The closk's ticking whilst we're sitting, hardly of use to any of us. Compare that to the, sorry, THE trip of a lifetime? Thunderdome Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/13/2010 6:10:57 PM   Oleg/Olga, I know this Q has passed here before - but what about an 'Edit'-button? Even if only valid for say 1 hour, to allow clumsy farts (like me, indeed) to correct their speling erors? Would be nice to have, really ;-) durak Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/14/2010 11:31:35 AM   jetmba, Loved your story from 2004! I hope it will be illuminating, for those who want to simplify human nature. jetmba. Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/14/2010 2:23:21 PM   Thanks Durak - of course I never gave her gave her the $28,000. Or any other money after that. But surprisingly she and I have remained friends over the years. Thunder: No, I didn't say that I lived an opulent lifestyle - I merely pointed out that it is best not to give that impression to a lady (unless one DOES lead an opulent lifestyle) as the lady is likely to be swayed by it. It would be great to ride across Ukraine as we have long talked about - you and I and nasfan - but its pretty difficult to find the time. Right now I am not even able to get sufficirent time to spend with the ladies in Ukraine I would like to see again. I am HOPING to change that situation - but we will have to see if it works out. durak Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/14/2010 3:01:14 PM   jet, I identify with the time issue :( Wanted to spend some quality time during the winter, insanity at work made it impossible. ______________________________________________ It seems to me that many of the men want to divide FSU women into "good girls" and "bad girls". To my mind, people are not comic-book characters. Sure, there plenty of women near either end -- but much of humanity occupies a middle ground. Anyway, I know about myself that I sometimes do sh*tty things, but I try to be a good man. I suspect that the one industrial-strength gold-digger of my experience is also hoping to find a loving husband, though the way she's going about it isn't likely to work for her. I also suspect that some of the much-maligned women in failed marriages sincerely wanted to make a go of it, and were heavily disappointed by the way things turned out when they reached "the promised land." ragingbull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/14/2010 5:57:57 PM   "I suspect that the one industrial-strength gold-digger of my experience is also hoping to find a loving husband, though the way she's going about it isn't likely to work for her." She wasn't industrial strength, but I met one. Thunderdome Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/15/2010 4:50:14 PM   OK Jet, bear with me here. I'll tell you - and the Nasfans too of course - what MY idea is. We all land there where we can hire a bike, and it will be somewhere Netherlands/Germany/Belgium like, simply because they're available there. From there we will head there where we agree to go to, beforehand of course, but say this will be Ukraine. The purpose of this journey is to arrive however maybe (hopefully) not by the shortest distance, we plan ahead what we'll do en route. Once there - we split up! The Nas's will visit those who they want to see, you do ditto, and I'll see some sights too or will tour the country (likely actually). Once all are done we re-group for the route back, I presume the shortest one this time, Autobahn quite likely. We hand back the bikes, have one last eve out & head all home then. As I said, my idea, open to any other suggestions. That's a journey across a large part of Europe, however the distance is actually not that large - pls google it, you'll be pleasantly surprised. Cost-wise you'll also be surprised, quite affordable really - and keep in mind that I'll be the (only) one looking at a miserable exchange rate here. Now then Jet, if you want to tie this in with an existing contact/lead/relation then fine, of course. But, what about doing this just for the hell of it? M&M & me will do it on that basis anyway. The trip remains the same, I'd say an adventure which will show you a good part of Europe in a way you'll never see it again, take my word for that. Any Slavic country will be new territory for me, the rest I've been to & can help me with the lingo. Now, whatever your comments, this CANNOT be a bad idea ;-) U2 got my mail-addy. I suggest summer of 2011, which leaves planning time enough as well as financial planning time too. Rag'n'Bull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/15/2010 5:15:14 PM   Don't try landing in Europe at the moment! The airspaces of UK, Scandinavia, Netherlands and Belgium, at the last count, are all closed, German airspace might still be open but the problem is heading East so may come to affect those travelling to/from western FSU. And I'm supposed to be flying to The Netherlands on Saturday ..... fingers crossed :) RodanTsunami Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/17/2010 7:22:33 AM   For anyone planning a trip, do not go until the "Global Warming" extortionists have resolved this "Crisis" by suing Mother Earth. You will become stranded with no hotel room near any Euopean airport available. Send me money and I will give you absolution from your "Carbon-Ash Footprint", then you can travel worry free, without guilt, knowing you have done something and you are on the correct side of the issue. Whatever the heck it is. I keep forgetting which crisis it is. Regardless send money, my fraternity brothers are hurting and no crisis should see a sundown without a transfer of money. At least I am doing something about it.

How dare they do this to their fellow Europeans? Kirkland Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/18/2010 5:36:40 PM   I was supposed to be flying to Spain on friday. But I'm sitting here smiling at the ranting going on with the other posts. I really must try to find something better to do with my unplanned spare time. Rag'n'Bull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 4/18/2010 5:44:03 PM   Well I never made it to The Netherlands yesterday so I had a good night out in Old South Wales instead!
