I met a woman from Moldova. We have the same birthday and she is a woman's fashion designer/model like my soon to be x-wife. I'm going to meet her in April sometime. That's about all the info for now. |
Good to see your moving on. Hope your meeting goes well, nothing like a bit of excitement to get your spirits up

She says she is comfortable with me and wants to take me on a tour of her city and maybe a tour of Kiev or a different city. She knows I'm married and getting a divorce. She accepts that and everything about me. As you say ET, I will be more cautious this time. |

You'll be OK. |

Why can't Europe just admit 110v 60Hz is better and switch already. |

You will learn a great deal about her by the way she goes about this. It's your money and you have the right to say no if you consider her decision or guidence incorrect. Again, you will learn a great deal by her reaction. Wait a few days before doing this, because your relationship is far from established yet. BTW If she is the type of Moldovan/Russian woman shopper I know, she will hunt for the best deal, and I mean HUNT. Clue, wear comfortable shoes because you'll do some walking.|

I'll be in the capital, Kishinev, so I'm sure my neck will be sore from turning it too much and my body a little bruised from my girl hitting me!

Yes this girl is quite attractive. I like eyes and this girl is all eyes ... BIG blue ones!!! I'll be in the capital, Kishinev, so I'm sure my neck will be sore from turning it too much and my body a little bruised from my girl hitting me!
|
LOL it is a very plasant way though to get neck ache and bruises 
|
The Kiev thing was really my thing. I told her the cities I would like to see and Kiev was one of them. She says she doesn't want me to be bored because there isn't much to do in her city. She also likes to travel and has never been to Kiev. |
I am experiencing the very same just now and I can tell you it feels wonderful 
| I'm sure she is a good shopper because she lives paycheck to paycheck and sometimes I think she runs out of money before the month ends. She raised a son by herself and the father ran off many years ago. Doesn't know if he is alive or dead or where he is. Many single mother's have it rough in my country so I'm sure it's 10 times as bad in the FSU. I have a lot of respect for single mothers that can create a good home with good children. |

I'll leave March 20th and meet her the next day. I'll be back May 7. We are also flying to Kiev for a week to do some sight seeing between the 26th and the 3rd. She really enjoyed the Women's Day Roses I sent. |

But I am prepared for craziness if it happens. I hope it won't , but if it does i'll just move on to something or someone else. If my trip this time turns out negative I will really be surprised. But I have been surprised before! We'll see! GTR, just go with the flow. You are allready kind of an expert in this stuff. You know what to do, that I know! |
