idea in life. Neither, is throwing money helter-skelter. Somewhere along the line, there is a balance between each extreme. That balance is arrived at with one's brain and heart and hopefully some lifes experience. Good & bad. Hopefully a little wisdom has been learned. In any case neither the helter-skelter nor the cheap guy ain't gonna be having a positive relationship with anybody. In short time, any woman sees the guy is a fool.

Udderwise, how are you doin'???

...Throwin it around is no good also but one man's helter- skelter is another's chump change, it's all relative. I think it may be best viewed it thru the eyes of the receiver's economy and lifestyle. Udderwise, (smile) me thinks yer comments are dead nuts on.

Doing fine. Workin again after a slight medical issue. (Darn Feds, always afraid we're gonna just keel over and slump in the belts). All else is OK, may be goin to the FSU with a pal who asked me to hold his hand if I can convince my housemate it's not a big game expedition. (lol, I keep sayin no but sometimes I'm not sure meself ;-)

How bout you? Not around here too often lately...any progress?

Money is a very relative thing...and a funny thing too. Thank goodness I can always throw a few away on what I may consider..."a good cause". But, a little brains---goes a very long way. Peace. Tim

lets assume that a man's fiance IS living a life of distress. Let us also assume this man loves this fiance. Let us finally assume that this man is living very well in the Golden world of USofA. Does it seem like this man is righteaous to leave the woman he loves in dire straits for 3-12 months while he is sitting fat? This is merely a rhetorical question. But this was my mindset going in. If I was going to get this woman involved in me and I wanted my new 'family' to be without problems it started at the time I proposed. Again that is my mentality. Maybe when your girls get heree they may also think that you do not deserve any 'extras'.............the goose and gander metaphor.

Well, it would have to occur to me that if a guy meets a woman who is in "complete distress", is she truly interested in me or in what I can provide for her situation?? That's a tough question. I certainly met women there who just really wanted out of their situations. For good reason I was not terribly interested in them. But I think it's obviously a personal choice and I think Tim is right in that each situation is different and each needs consideration. If I meet a woman who isn't working and doesn't care that she isn't working and wants and expects me to foot her bills, I am certainly not inclined to do that. If I meet a woman who is working and doing her best and has a legit problem that comes up, would I be willing to help? Sure.. I'm probably a bit jaded having met so many women in the first category there..

IF YOU ARE WAITING FOR 'YOUR' FIANCE, YOUR LOVE, YOUR LIFE, YOUR DREAM COME TRUE, I JUST FEEL THAT IF ONE HAS THE MEANS, THAT ONE SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS 'LOVE' DUE TO THE FACT THAT 'ALL' RUSSIAN WOMEN LIVE IN DESPAIR-THAT IS WHY THEY COME HERE...........
in the midst of the sarcasm, I hope that is more clear. ONLY SEND MONEY TO YOUR FIANCE............ONLY SEND MONEY TO YOUR FIANCE----------THAT YOU HAVE MET AND ARE WAITING FOR VIA A K-1 VISA............IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT.......I know that I am a real bastard for feeling this way but fukkit man.......that is me

As before, each situation is different. It seems that plenty of guys have chimed in above feeling there is no reason to send money aside from those expenses incurred by your bringing her here etc.. I tend to generally agree with them. Can there be extenuating circumstances and exceptions? Certainly.
And I do not agree that ALL RW live in despair. My fiance did not agree with this when I mentioned the idea to her. She was doing fine, paying her bills, has good family and friends and was quite happy. So I think to say that they are all in "despair" would not be accurate..
