It is the right thing to do for both of you mate, I very much hope she is the one for you.
When writing to more than one how can anyone possibly keep it interesting and most important of all, not screw up and say something relevant to one of the other girls by mistake !!!
I certainly couldnt juggle the lives and families and every day information of more than one woman, and be sure never to drop a round hairy one !!
And in answer to your topic titale,
If you think you are in love, then its time to make her your number one girl, at least until your thoughts are proved wrong !! Otherwise you most certainly are Not in love :o))
I wasn't with it earlier, I did know...I must be getting old :)
I've just got a TXT of a girly friend of mine who's just got back from her holidays and been wondering what the cheeky flirt has been up to whilst she's been away. I gave her the low down on 'the one' with pics/profile and even SHE'S blown away, enough to turn her a l*sbi*n. I've been "instructed" to learn Russian which I was doing anyway. Her first impression as with most westerners is that they're all heavy built shot-putters in leotards! lol
Thanks for the advice tim, I think you are right, I have had no waord since the job application letter.:)
There are gilrs out there, who write much nicer letters and one's that have read your letters carefully, due to their detailed response. I am lucky to be meeting one in Holland next week, One invited me to Kiev after about 6 letters, should I be concerned guys?
I've had offers to visit within 6 letters too and it hasn't concerned me but I won't jump just because I've been asked. It's likely just a test from them to see if you're serious about visiting than simply being a pen pal which in itself is nice. I like to take my time to make sure that I am making the best decision of the choices available and that probably took me a month to figure out before I was certain. If your instinct says everything is okay, then it most likely is IMO. Good luck with the trip, you're certainly moving quick.
"Her first impression as with most westerners is that they're all heavy built shot-putters in leotards!" So long as the majority think like that, it leaves all those gorgeous gilrs for us mate :o))))
Trad, you certainly work fast mate :o))
Between the 9th and the 10th you gained 2 girlies !!!
9/3/4 " Myself dma, there are three fantastic women I am corresponding,"
10/3/4
" Me too, but I have 5 fantastic women on the go and can't make a choice,"
You havnt got 10 by now ave you mate ? ;o)))
Hope all goes well in Holland for you mate :o))) But please take care and keep in touch with us all eh ?
There are lots of net cafes there, so if you need us, you know you can find us :o))
As I have said in other posts, I try to get there and meet the girl I am dedicated to writing to as soon as possible, I dont think months of writing letters is really conducive to actually knowing anyone, better to meet them face to face, and after all if it was the girl down the road you wouldnt write to her for months before you dated her !! You would ask her out for dinner and see how it went from there. Thats eaxctly what I do, but I fly to the FSU to do it.
If I could be with Natash now I would be, (but this house sale has grounded me for a week or two more yet) I started writing to her end of Jan' so that gives you my idea of when 2 people should meet, asap as far as Im concerned, and fortunatly for me Im in a position to work this way coz I work for myself. Of cousre I appreciate that not everyone is that fortunate, but I strongly recommend not leeving it too long or you may miss the boat, and someone else might beat you to meeting the girl of your dreams. It would be a shame to lose her for the sake of a weekof work and few hundred quid flight, yes ?
I hear what you're saying Tim and completely agree but the key point is often flexibility for many where they don't have short term flexibility. What's stopping you from leaving your house affairs to someone else to resolve whilst you jump on the plane for a week? Can't signatures and various agreements be faxed? Sometimes, we just can't physically drop everything we're obligated to although having said that, for the woman of your/my dreams the issue would be rather moot and everything would be dropped. It's an exciting time either way and, yes, one that shouldn't be dragged out.
So from the point of the first letter to meeting, you think it'll be about 10 weeks before you meet Natasha? I am probably looking at the same time-frame, 10 - 12 weeks all being well, and I am now getting my head stuck into learning the lingo which also gives enough time for both of us to familiarize ourselves with customs/language etc, so when we meet we're better prepared when together than rush headstrong into the unknown and struggle.
Right now we are both thoroughly enjoying the bond that has occured in the last 2 weeks and building upon it. My heart skips a beat when I get her letters, losing breath momentarily. It only adds to the anticipation and desire to see each other and so long as you're clear about the situation, it's easier to manage and get into perspective. I had to resurrect this thread as I've just had my second phone call with **** <I'm not giving a name out with you vultures about. lol>, 2 1/2 half hours of sheer heavenly delight with my sweetheart that to not be able to talk to her would be unimaginable - I don't know how you can't do this. If we get stuck or misunderstand each other, we have to blow the other a kiss, that's a fair bit of kissing 150 minutes! Needless to say that tonight's exercise involved learning parts of the body in Russian and that is where I should stop writing... :)
If you misunderstand anything I write, just blow me a kiss! ;-)
As soon as the exchange of contracts is done mate Im there !!!
Just want to be certain I dont get backed out on at the last minute !!
Completion can wait until I get back :o))
I think yes mate, about 10 weeks, and if you think about it thats a lot of time to wait for a first date !!! Even if that first date is 3000 miles away !!
Of course Del' I alreday have a lot of lingo from pst trips and being married to a Russian lady, so I have that small advantage.
I could call Natasha mate, but I think she would be scared and find it harder over the phone as her English is only about a 3, its cool, I have no problem with it the way it is, and very soon we shall be face to face and talk then, a lot :o)))
Yes I think you are getting into the realms of "Too much information" !!!
> she would be scared and find it harder over the phone
lol. I think I know what you mean.
my girl aka **** has a rating of 4 but I'd give her a 7. Her confidence and personality shine through the difficulties that inevitably do occur from time to time but that's disguised and quickly passed by with the game of blowing a kiss. It can be quite intoxicating.
Del:
just asked Inna how she was rated about her english ablilties and she after I explained the scale she has told me about a 3 too,but quickly added that after our meeting she felt a lot more confident,in using english.
Needless to say since she's been here her command of english has grown in leaps and bounds.
Think she'll be teaching me soon!!!
Guys, my Russian abilities dont impress me, but I feel far more confident when Im there, immersed in it, and I learn much faster too.
Most people dont big themsleves up about their abilities at these sort of things, and most Russians I have spoken too speak far better English than they think they do, and I have been told many times that my Russian is better than I think it is, so its all relative :o))
