Starting out and starting over

[Timmy K.]

 Hello every body,

 OK- I am going to Kharkov on December 29,and I am staying until Jan.19. As you all know things went sour for me and Viktoria, I had to cancel my flight in October and had 90 days to use my tickets or lose them so in the middle of November I started over, this time I went with some women 35 and up. Wrote to about 8 and narrowed it down to 3 in this short time. Of course I have my favorite and I am goping to meet her first of course. I have used the help of Dmitry from  www.kharkovgirls.com he was suggested to me from one of our board members here, I started to use him when Viktoria and I broke away from the agency where I met her last spring. He is as good as they get I think as far as being straight with a guy. I have an apartment lined up through him he is also a realtor. Any way my new prospect has a 10 year old son and we are planning a nice New Years at the apartment I am renting, {HER WISHES AND IT SOUNDS REALLY GOOD TO ME ALSO},putting up a tree and a few gifts and a home cooked dinner. The big issue here is I need some good pointers from someone experienced with a RW who has a child. Help me out please with some advice.

Timmy, I do not think you will have any problems with her child. 10 years is good age. Do not forget to take a small gift for her and for the body.

Does he have any relationship with his father? If not, things will be even easier. It's very seldom you see that children are totally spoiled by their parents and very seldom with the single mothers.

THANK YOU ALEKSIA, No her son has no relation with his father,and I already have some gifts for both of them nothing real expensive but all American and this is what they wanted.

I forgot to ask one question, About customs, last time when I went to meet Viktoria I bought her a necklace, it was gold with a cross on it. I simply wore it myself.This time I have purchased a bracelet for Nataly, it was a special from Younkers and only cost $150 and I saved the receipt. Should I try to wear it also, it fits very tight around my wrist and I mean very tight.

I am not sure I understand. if you bought a gift for a woman, why do you want to wear it first?

It's a way to get it through customs without having to hassel with the legal restrictions or the duties to be paid.

I wouldn't really worry about it at all.  Just stow it in your carry-on.

As long as it does not look like new jewlery, I doubt anybody will question it.  They will assume it is your personal jewlery and not give it a second thought, that is if the presence of it even phases them in the slightest way.  I have been to Russia twice, and both times they were too interested in bombs and weapons to worry about anything else you have with you.


BTW, good luck with your new lady.  I know what it is like to have a relationship with a RW blow up in your face.  Mine exploded on me three days before her embassy interview.

Hi Timmy,

We both have a lot in common.  We both had a relationship go south.  We both started over in mid November, and we are both going to Kharkov.    My trip is a month after yours.

I don't have a lot of experience with a gal with a 10 year old but I did have one friend from Tver who come to America with a 10 year old.  I met her here when her marriage was breaking up.   The 10 year old, Alex, was a joy to be around.  We had a lot of fun together.  Actually I probably would not be here today if it was not for her.  I gave up on FSU women for a year after some bad scamming experiences and when I met her it convinced me there were good gals over there and I started again.  I am not saying my experiences have been better, but I won't give up again.

I don't remember your other posts.  I may go back and look for them.  I take it there was a lot of age difference between you and Victoria and you felt that was the problem.   I am not changing my age ranges any.  Actually the one I like best right now is younger than my former fiancee.  The one in Kharkov is three years older, but I am writing gals that are in their 40's too.    That is as old as I want to go. 

A couple of questions.   What are you paying for your apartment there?   My gal is supposed to be looking for one for me but if she has any problems, I might want to try and get ahold of Dmitry.

Next question.  Did you find it hard to find flights there?   I was on about every travel site there is and most could not even get me there.   One could but it was $ 800.00 more than flying to Kiev and a round trip from Kiev to Kharkov is $ 200 but the plane to Kiev does not get in early enough to catch the other flight.  I think in my case I worked it out when I found Aerosvit's website.  The can round trip me from JFK for $ 700.00 or so it seems.  I have not reserved yet.  Getting to JFK from Pittsburgh is almost as bad.  I think I will have to go to cleveland and fly all day to get to JFK.

In my case I am going to Kiev in 3 weeks and spend 5 days there with the one gal I really like, then going to moscow for 3 days and meeting three new ones.   Then two weeks later on Feb 1st, I am heading for Kharkov.   I plan to make a long trip in March but won't know were until after my other trips.
