Passport problem

[slim 1,514]

Satellite is right, the girls will like you there.... They will LOVE you!!! Anyone who shows up with the word "SUCKER" tattoed on their forehead is right up these girls' alleys. (And if you are a sucker, the probablility of meeting the guys in the track suits is increased exponentially.)

Cam, by all means, keep on coming back here. I would like to offer any advice that I can.

It's obvious that you've never really been around any Russians or anyone who's spent some time over there because if you had, you'd be a little more... I don't know the best word here, but I'll just say a little less naive about how things work over there.

One poster said a while back that acting "important and in charge, and like you know exactly what you're doing" is very important there, and that's about the best way to describe the mindset that you need when you get there. If you show up like "Jee... what do I do now?" Then you're going to get hoodwinked.

Talk to your girl(s) a little more about life in Russia and what it's like there for some people. It's not all bad, and you're not going to get mugged just because you're walking down the street, but you increase your chances significantly when you're walking down the street by yourself speaking English to everyone.

I should just let this go - because you guys are right. There are plenty of girls looking for a sucker to latch onto. But that is alot different then liking him, let alone loving him.

That's why I said he needs to think about why he is going to Russia. He should have alot of knowledge of this girl he is going to meet. He should be genuinly interested in her and have gone so far as to check her out. It doesn't seem like he has done his reasearch. He should try to know alot more about where he is going because I can easily see him being left by himself. He need to show an interest in Russia itself, I would think. I went there for vacation with lots of plans. I was prepared if my girl was trying to play me, or if we just didn't click in person. I wanted to see Russia.

Anyway, Cam, I could be wrong about you. Maybe you really have thought things through.
