Last night I noticed that my fiance had washed one of my nice dress shirts for work.  I told her that she didn't need to wash those, that I took them to the cleaners to have them washed and pressed.  She told me that no, she wanted to do them at home.  I told her that I really didn't want her to have to take the time to wash and iron  them all and she straightened me out real fast- "You are my man!  It is very intimate thing for woman to do for her man, to iron shirts just for him.  I want to do it and you need to let me do it!".  

Guess she told me what for! LOL!  Gotta love it!  
And I finally got her to go clothes shopping with my cousin today..  I had certainly bought her a few things but she really felt like she had enough clothes at this point (not hardly!).  When was the last time I had to ASK a woman to go get herself some clothes??  Uh.... NEVER?  I feel like I have died and gone to heaven! LOL!

Things continue to go incredibly well..  The kidlet continues to do just great in school etc..  Haven't had much time to post.. this family thang (which is pretty new to me) is pretty consuming, in a good way!

Later,
Oscar

I believe in March..  They have been settling in nicely, both she and her son.  We have finished with meeting all the family, buying wardrobes, getting vaccinations, getting him fully into school, etc..  Things are calming down and we are finding lots of time to talk about our future.. Of course we talked about all these things for months while waiting for her to get here but as many realize, doing so mostly through phone and email is quite different than doing so in person..  It's becoming quite comfortable for all of us, and that is what I personally wanted for them both- to really feel comfortable, grounded and ready after such a big change in their lives.

Oscar,

I know we haven't seen eye-to-eye on everything, but please take this advice to heart.  If you have been this happy with how things are going the past 6 weeks/2 months, go ahead and set a date--or if you are doing a civil ceremony, go ahead and get married.  While she may not tell you about it, there is a tremendous stress that builds up as the 90-day limit approaches and no wedding has taken place, even if everything is going great.

Maybe this question would help:  If you had a fight next week, would you see it as part of a normal life together, or a reason to rethink everything you both have done so far?  In our case, we had some whoppers in the couple of weeks before the wedding (we both had kids getting used to us and each other), but we went through with it and are extremely happy with how everything has worked out.

Good luck, whatever you choose...

Steve M.

No offence taken at all.  All legitimate questions..  I promised myself that I would use most of the 90 days for both our sakes, no matter how good we feel about things.  I personally feel guys should avail themselves of most of this time to really do their homework.  Yes, most of the "homework" should have been done already but again, long distance is a far cry from in person.  We do talk about it often and I do not believe she feels the stress you suggest although I guess it's possible I'm not seeing it.  You have to remember, she also felt it would be wise to use most of our time together before marrying and I really respect her for that.  Things are flowing very nicely and I think the timing is going very well.

Thanx for well-wishing..  ;-)

...and double your chances of not forgetting either your anniversary or International women's day.

Of course, the consequences of forgetting both could be dire...

Oscar,
Sounds like you found a keeper.  Get used to the treatment because it only gets better.  Last night I crashed and burned at a very early hour due to a bout of brontcitis.  Lena was in to check on me constantly to make sure I was resting comfortably.  A few hours later she woke me with a cup of hot tea and a piece of cake she baked.  She actually fed me the cake bite by bite.  Once you go "Russian" there aint no going back to American women.  LOL.

Don't get people's hopes up so much.  Their reality may vary.  For us guys in the USA, we know how hard it would be to get an American woman to do that.  Next to impossible.

The lady that I met in Prague after many calls and e-mails, (unfortunately it did not work out) was very at tentative to me in a way that AW just are not interested.

For example, she saw that my shoes had some mud on them. She picked them up and cleaned them. One night were going to go out for dinner and I did not have a shirt that was ironed, no ironing board in the room,  -- when I put on a shirt that was somewhat wrinkled, she said "no no people will think that I am a bad woman for not taking better care of you."  She quickly went through my wardrobe and found a sweater for me to wear.

What ever I wanted to do was fine with her relative to sightseeing etc. And, when we went out for dinner, she wanted me to order for her - to take charge and her to follow my lead.

When we would get ready to go out for the night, she would not uncommonly comb my hair the way she wanted it, lovingly saying " My little boy" as she combed to her liking. She loved doing things for me. I would rather comb my own hair but, she was so cute how she did it, I would not object and let her have her way.

When she would be attentive to me, I found myself wanting to take care of her also. I find that AW are so far from this perspective. They are more into a "you owe me mode - which tends to not want you to take as good a care of them in the long run.

To me, this is one of the most wonderful aspects of how these women can be. Of course there will be exceptions as DavidSD experienced. That is life.

Bubba,
I live to make you guys understand "what is possible".  I know I am damm lucky, but you can be too.  I don't care what method you choose to use, just use it.  If you don't succed (at finding the right girl) use it again and again until you do find her.  Not every woman in the FSU is a "keeper", but there are great opportunities to find one there.  I know I did.  She would be a "dream wife" at half the beauty and twice the age!

(Please do not take what I wrote as directed at you in particular, just a general type statement)(The best I could get my exwife (AW) to do when I was sick, was to leave me alone)
