Happily Married...But...
« on: December 09, 2013, 08:16:50 PM »
Sorry for being gone so long from the forum..been busy. I'll refresh a little. I met my now RW wife on a plane from Moscow to Atlanta. she was a medical artist living in Atlanta and now an awesome mt. girl here in the north Georgia mountains.

I'll write more about that later. Something has been bothering me concerning a close friend that met a lady from Moldova that won the green card lotto a couple of years ago, relocated to the US and how it ended in disaster recently. She left a lot of hurt behind and I want to tell you about this in hopes it won't ever happen to any you.

My wife and I are going to discuss this together so I'll best know how to put it into words in hopes something like this won't happen to any of you. This one even caught her by surprise.

I know there are failures in this pursuit, I had two myself before I met my wife, and I have plans to tell the forum about them later.

I'll try to get started on this sometime this week after my wife and I talk more about it.

Happy Holidays!

The final step to happiness or the disaster of your life, marriage can be great thing or ruin you.

Sorry. I had to look up what a Medical (artist) Illustrator was...  :(


~ A medical illustrator is a professional artist with specialized training and advanced education in medicine, science, art, design, visual technology, media techniques, and in theories related to communication, learning and management. Collaborating with scientists, physicians, and other content specialists, medical illustrators serve as visual translators of complex technical information to support education, medical and bio-scientific research, patient care, patient education, public relations, and marketing objectives. They transform complex information into striking images that stimulate imagination, facilitate learning, and record scientific discovery.  In addition to producing such material medical illustrators often function as content developers, creative directors, consultants and administrators within the general field of biocommunication and as business owners and entrepreneurs in the marketplace.

A medical illustration is a visual representation that is the result of art skills expressed in a tangible or virtual medium that conveys medical or biological information.

She just turned 57 years old. Her mind was tired, she met me and we got married so she retired. I'll write more later about being married to her claim as a village girl not a city girl.

I suppose this is one of those times you have something to say and you don't really know how to say it. We live on a farm (not farmers) in a small pretty valley on the back side of nowhere where everyone knows everyone and has for a century probably, takes care of each other and where a handshake is a contract. I don't think anyone comes here unless they live here or a relative or a friend of someone that does. "good for us".

There are three RW now living in this small valley happily married and can say yee haw as good as any of us native folks that have lived here most all of our lives so please no smart remarks about RW are city girls and care not to live out in the country. Two of them are from Moscow and one is from Perm my wife being from Moscow. They all drive jeeps, wear jeans and hiking boots and will run a butt off the road if you not give them the right of way and grin while they're doing it.

The girl I started this thread about is a village girl from Moldova, won the green card lotto and got to the states two years ago. She had a son already here living in a big city up in the northeast so she had a place to stay and support when she got here. She more or less got adjusted and then moved on up to a larger city on the east coast and took a job as a live in caretaker for an older lady.

She met our friend on a free personal site and the relationship begin to grow. She's 50, attractive but nothing to yell yee haw about to your momma compared to all the other beauties out there. She called him on the phone several times a day and they talked in Skype in the evenings if and when she had the time. He flew up to meet her and went back a couple more times. He told us she was very sweet, had learned as much English as she could in Youtube and was doing great with it. He said she was innocent about a lot of things but no dumba** and was a joy and pleasure to be with.

When us guys here in the valley married to RW started getting the hints from him that this was getting serious, as much as we love our friend, we all thought uh oh, another terrorist RW driver on the road here headed this way. We all listened to him and told him maybe he should also discuss this with our wives. She may be from a village but she also seems to like the lights of the big city and she needs to know that Times Square here is out in front of a barn were we all come together for cookouts and some pickin and grinning. He kept assuring us that she knew all about where we lived and was excited about coming down for a visit. One of our buddies ask..does she drive? We all laughed about that one and he said no she couldn't drive. What a relief.

He did bring our wives in on this relationship over the next couple of weeks. They listened and all admitted they were looking for red flags. As time got closer for her first visit she talked to my wife on the phone one time. My wife assured her we had black bears, deer, horses, mules, cows but no alligators and no earthquakes. She had asked our friend if we had alligators and earthquakes here. My wife said she really did seem to be a nice lady and sincere about out friend and they would welcome her and have her for dinner while she was here. Our friend and his lady made their plans for her to come down and he would fly up and fly back with her since she's not to privy to flying.

I'll try to figure out how to write about her first visit in my next post.

chooter,

I recall your first posts, and it is good to know your blissful life with a RW continues.

As an Appalachian boy in my youth (Tennessee Hills), I understand the amenities of your area.  For sure life there is not idyllic for some RW, yet the majority would probably welcome it, particularly the older RW.

From the film Dr. Zhivago, I recall Rod Steiger saying something like, "Underneath the surface of every Russian woman is a peasant girl."   Many of the older RW indeed know how to milk a goat (a real goat).  Most have planted potatoes and picked wild mushrooms. 

You have started your story with some suspense.  Our imagination is already working.  We await the next installment.

Those Tenn hills are some pretty country.
You're spot on with your post Gator and pretty much summed it up. My wife is the oldest of the three girls here. I think the other two are ages 46 and 42. My wife has told me about her young life staying with her grand parents at their dacha during the summer months. She can milk a real goat (not seen that one yet) and a cow and yelps because we have no eatable mushrooms in this mountain area around us she can pick. She has a Morgan horse, a mule, a boxer dog, two pigmy goats and a rooster and none of them realize they're animals. We also have several girls near us that were adopted from Russia. They're all teenagers now and 100% country farm girls, have no accents and can speak hillbilly with the best of them. They're also writing an ebook and telling their stories. Maybe they'll let me pass on the link to it in here.

We got home a couple of hours ago from the Atlanta airport retrieving our two 16 year old twin nieces from Moscow. They're going to go to school here for the next semester and maybe more.

My life has gone from living with one RW panty toter to three RW panty toters. Still can't decide what I've done to deserve this.

I'l try to get back on the girl from Moldova tomorrow night.

LOL. I can't imagine a farming town with strategically placed plastic goats doing nothing all day long just standing there. Do the cows at least 'moo' ?

I used the term "real goat" to distinguish from the  two-legged старый козелstary, a species that some young RW easily milk for gifts and money.
