Hello

[RESQU]

Hello all,

Good idea to have an introduction section.  I came here from another RW forum, and I recognize several members from there on this board also. 

I live in Kansas City and have made one trip to Russia so far.  I am dating one RW and will see where it leads to.

I look to this forum hoping it is a little better than the other one I visit, but admittedly some of the information I received there was great and informative.  I only wished I had found one of these forums before my first trip.  Seems like the topics were getting strange and off topic, and too much BS being thrown around from people who did not have dating experience at home let alone in FSU.  From what I have read so far this seems to have a more positive atmosphere and the intent is more geared to answering the posters question.  Thank you to everyone who shares their experiences and knowledge.

Yes, these forums avoid many of the pitfalls on the first trip

Welcome, without mentioning about the incident, I presume that you too got a little worn by the fallout?

[RESQU]

Yes Alfie I did.  I remember reading all through it and then thought, what the heck am I doing here?  How did any of the benefit someone considering an FSUW?  I still check in there, just thought this board seemed more direct and  answered peoples questions better without getting off topic so often.

I agree. After awhile, it just seemed that it was more or less a lot of gossipy bickering. And not serious enough to answer the tough questions about RW and those initiated in it.
