I have decided that I cannot go through this entire process.
There are too many hurdles to overcome; the language barrier, the cultural differences, the expense, to name just a few.

I swore that after my ex-wife abandoned us, I would never have a relationship with another American girl. I was acting rashly and thought that Russia held the answer. Oh well, live and learn!





One other thing.....









HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY!




I hope no is offended (See "My wife left me" thread You are all great folks and have been a tremendous help!

Ha ha ha, thats pretty good! I just finished reading your PM and I was like WTF? Good one

lol..lol... good one

You got me on that one. I have seen your posts and its obviously you care very much for your fiance.

In every joke there is always a little bit of truth.

Heh! And here I was gettin' ready to give my "don't be so rash man, remembering to keep your shoes off the bed gets easier with time!" speech!

My guess would be that the truth would be the part highlighted above

Sure.. Like yours?

LMAO!

Has anyone started a tread of why American men choose foreign brides? And the guys haveto be 100% honest!

This has been discussed to death here. And i think the general consensus is that if you ask ten guys on the russian forum you get ten different answers.

Personally, i always get in trouble for eating "chipses" on the bed.

Being a 75 year-old man, it was getting more and more expensive for me to find 16 year-old girls willing to do what we called back in the Great War "rolling in the hay." Excuse my profanity, please. Turns out that importing a foreign bride only costs the price of the visa, a forged birth certificate, and a small fee to the human traffickers.

But that's just me.

Sorry Irish, not even for a second! This is one guy that can't be fooled today. My mother did a good job of that 49 years ago!

Ohhhhhh....



Happy Birthday my friend!

49 years ago......today? No way! An April Fool's Day birthday? That explains alot!

Happy Birthday!

Thanks Kirk! It was so cool, Alla send me 4 eCards right at the stroke of midnight! I'm really missing her today. Last year was my first Russian style birthday and I loved it!

Everything for a reason, Don!

Mags started a birthday thread for me if wish to bestow greetings, maybe we should leave Irish44's thread for him. Oh wait... Has that ever stopped us before!

Happy Birthday!!

Thanks Irish!

I agree eekee. I used an agency as most of us did. Here is one of the first profiles I saw, and it sealed the deal for me!

Ohhh baby, Ol'ga's for me! I'll fight you for her Irish. I'm cancelling our K-1 and starting over!

To Irish: GOOD ONE! First April Fools joke on me so far.

To: Kazan: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Have a vodka on me. Forty-nine...you're just a kid!

Sir Connery II, I do still feel like one, but... I have a feeling I don't exactly conceal that very well nor do I try!

Hey some guys may like girls like that?

No need to fight boys. Seems to me there's more than enough to go around.

You suck! I was all upset for you.

Nah, you don't suck, you have a wonderful and timely sense of humor, something that must be maintained through the madness of immigration. Myself, that photo of Olga was the reason I got divorced and married a slim beautiful russian girl, coupled with the fact that I fell hopelessly in love with her. Great April Fools joke. Now if you only had the Tiger's headgear, oh that is for birthday boys only!

Jeez.. I thought I wasn't going to accomplish anything today!

Well.. since everyone else thought it was OK, you are in the minority. I don't understand something.. how long were you upset? I calculated that it takes about 2 seconds to scroll down the page and see the punchline.

Thanks for the input. I was very upset after reading her blistering, hateful, and upsetting comment. It seems that some of the non-Russian group folks, who post here (all are welcome by the way) seem to have thin skins, no sense of humor, or both.

I am still so upset over this scathing comment that I might have to hoist two beers today.. one for Kazan's Birthday and one for my hurt feelings!

Oh how I miss my future father-in-laws cry... "ПИВО!"

As a member of the Pitcairn Islands filers community, I take grave exception to that statement! I'm off to the Pitcairn Island forum now, and we shall return en masse to express our outrage and to demand an apology!

And oh yes, happy birthday DJefree. We may be outraged, but we Pitcairn Island filers are known for our politeness.

I read an article about Pitcairn Island... It was disturbing, to say the least.

How's adjusting to the culture, Mox?

I thank the Pitcairn Island Forum for their kindness. And to all Pitcairnites, all 50 persons, give or take a few, of which 6 are the families of the pastor and schoolteacher from abroad!

I meant no insult. As I said, "SOME" of the non-Russian group folks. I would like to append that to "With the exception of inhabitants of Pitcairn Island, Easter Island, The Isle of Wight, and some parts of New Jersey. You have my apologies!

It's going GREAT! I'm currently learning Pitcairnese. It's an easy language to learn, but difficult to communicate in, as it's composed entirely of adverbs. No nouns or verbs or anything else, just adverbs. Also there is only one tense, the "past defective future imperative" tense. The alphabet has 72 characters, all identical.

I'm a little annoyed at "Pleasantly," my fiancee, right now. I keep trying to get her to go get her police certificate but because their language has no nouns all she knows is that she needs "quickly."


Thank you. What we lack with all the inbreeding and "the wheel" (we're *this* close to solving that particular problem! We just need to invent the noun first...), we more than make up for in kindly.

You had me laughing out loud on that one, Mox!!!!! Shades of Monty Python

I just noticed on that profile for "Olga" (who is Ukrainian but wearing a Brazilian-themed bikini or whatever that was) at the bottom it says her match should be "Loving. Energetic..... GOOD APPETITE!!!!"

Now that's what I'm talking about!

I'm impressed with your computer software that translates only adverbs into this full grammar email. Your computer programmers...inbreds and all, are quite impressive!

Yeah Slim, I thought you would notice that. However, I think Olga is very high maintenance.
Unless you have discount cards for Krispy Kreme, McDonalds, KFC, and many others her monthly maintenance cost could be in the four figure range.
Not to mention how much her Ballet lessons must cost!

How is it being the only adult man on the island not in jail? You must have a very busy life there!

Well, as the locals would say...]]]]]]]], which means "happily!"

As far as I can tell you were just a sucker for believing it. See my thread for more information.

And as far as I can tell, you're a sucker for believing Jomo was serious. See your thread for more information.

Who is Jomo? Kenya's former president?
