Read this board must have his head examined...  Some bring up some real ridiculous issues that get bounced around like crazy while we might understand the point of view I don't think the RW would.  Great way to start uncalled for problems.  But for the RW reading here now...  Most of the time we are just learning and do not always mean what we say...lol

Just wait till you are married...my wife showed me some of the Russian web sites, the amount of men and women posting advice for the fiance visa process is incredible.
I did not see any flame wars but lots of joking and "bad" advice..

One thing all of you guys that are not married yet will find out just how much "propoganda" and misinformation your new wife believes that is true...I could tell stories that could fill a book..of conversations my wife and I have had...such as: the USA has never landed a man on the moon...it was a Russian! including a dead cosmonaut still on the moon...and she showed me the internet sites that describe it in detail!

My favorite: there is a alian space station on the dark side of the moon...and the Russian government knows all about it!

I am not making this stuff up...there are actual Russian web pages with all of this ..er, propoganda..

Ryan, there are some beautiful ladies there. How many ladies you going to see in Kyrgyzstan? One, maybe two?  

Ryan, if this is where you are going to go, concentrate ONLY on this region. Work, look, find, write 20 to 25 ladies who really interest you. Get your letters hand delivered or sent via registered mail, one or the other. With work, hopefully you will be able to find 6 to 8 sincere ladies who have a real interest in you. I would hate to think you would make this trip and see fewer ladies.

Wish you the best.

Your right I’m only writing one right now.  I’m sorry Jack; I just can’t see going to see 6 to 8 after writing to 20 to 25.   I just can’t see doing it.  I like to write to one and make sure she knows she is special.  They plan their whole life around me being there when I say I am going to be there.  They take me into their house and let me stay with them and let me experience all that they do.  I really get a feel for what they are like, what they look like when they wake up and all that jazz.  The other way is just so not me.  I know your way is the right way, I know it is stupid to just see one girl but that’s me.  I have this agency and I talked with this woman that run it.  I told her that if I do not see chemistry in this one girl I am writing to that is from her agency that I wanted her to play the match making game and set me up.  (She claims she has done this before lot like you do for people).

Ok I promise, I just have to do it this way one more time.  If I don’t make it I’m going on a tour with you for sure.  No backing out…  I wish I lived in a country where my mother could have just fixed me up and be done with all this crap…lol NOT…

Ryan there is nothing wrong with you having wonderful feelings about this one lady, but just stop and look and consider the whole picture.

What, if after meeting you, this lady realizes she does not have the feelings for you needed to be hr future husband?

What, if after meeting her, you realize this women does not project the feelings you were hoping, dreaming for, in your future wife?

What, if after both of you meet you realize the other is neat and cool and likeable, but the stong, over-whelming chemistry needed for a lifetime relationship is just not there.

You must know that there is a good possiability that one of these factors could happen Ryan.

Why, no let me rephrase that, "WHY would you wait until you get half way around the world and HOPE that there might be another woman in this ladies catalog that you will fall in love with". This is a little crazy Ryan. You know, this is something that other guy who used to post here last year by the name of Ryan would do!

Ryan, whatever city or region this special woman lives, you need to be looking now for other ladies of interest in this same city or region! You are going to hope that in this other agencies database of what, maybe 100 women, that you will like one of these women! Let's see, of these 100 women, they range from 19 to 48. You will rule out the ladies from 19 to 22 (I think) and you will rule out the ladies from 31 to 48. So you, as a young man himself, now you are hoping of the remaining 29 ladies from age 23 to 30 that there is one in here you will like. And your going to travel half-way around the world hoping to fall in love with this one, but if not, maybe 1 or 2 of the 6 ladies you picked out will have an interest in you. Just pure Bullsh!t Ryan! You should take control, you should lessen the chance of luck by you finding another 4 or 5 ladies in this city that you are attracted to and that these ladies are also interested in you. It is called work Ryan! You want to better your chances of success, then go to work, but don't put all your hope and dreams into ONLY this one woman you first e-mailed 6 weeks ago.  

Are you thirsty yet Ryan?
Why do I ask you say? Well, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

My friend went to kazicstan to meet a woman-total scammer. Luckily he had an agency there to set him up with a few dates. He actaully did meet a great women who just happen to come a long distance to meet him-because of the agency. So, for guys who are lucky enough to be informed-at lease have some phone numbers in case you guys actaully do just not 'fit'.

Jacl, could you give us the gist of the scam on the board without revealing names etc.

Thanks

This guy, who I know and believe to be very reliable, says he paid for flowers to be delivered to two differnt individuals with photos to be taken.  The photos were never taken and sent to him as agreed to, although he paid for this, and the flowers to be delivered to the intended recipients did not happen. In addition this agency was telling him various things that didn't add up, some about a lady he had previously met (they did not know he had previously visited her), and he knew some of the things they were telling him was not correct.

Sounds minor in the nature of $ loss, but the more I hear about scams out there the happier I am.  Thanks Jack.
