If it were on Match.com that would probably still show. Perhaps do a Google Image search yourself and request for removal.
The one who needs good luck (if you are real) is you, not us. If she ever arrives she might not recognize you....

I hear ya JC.  That is why us good looking guys need to be careful when posting our pictures.  There are too many people wanting to exploit our good looks for nefarious reasons.


I say you should show the naysayers that you're the real deal by uploading a new picture that isn't all over the porn sites.   Something in this decade would prove to them beyond a doubt.


I bet you know GregFromGa on here.

Perhaps not post your picture on porn sites would help. Apart from that the picture was taken about 25 years ago 

I also thought the picture was old !!!

One important question, have you ACTUALLY seen her?   Webcam????

[Wayne]

The airport in Atlanta is very large and busy. You need to find an exact place to meet her there. There is also a service that you can use whereby a Russian speaking guide would meet your girl and bring her directly to you.
 
You could ask her to scan and email to you a copy of her passort with visa attached and flight information. With this information, you should be able to find out if she is actually on the flight.

[GQBlues]

I haven't even bothered to check through Google, but you are more than likely correct.

No need. There're very few times Google can come in handy...but this one is far too easy.

You could ask her to scan and email to you a copy of her passort with visa attached and flight information. With this information, you should be able to find out if she is actually on the flight.

Under normal situations where a relationship had been built up and there was great trust between the two parties, this would not be necessary nor recommended and some people would say you might be offending the other party.

But this is not a normal situation by any stretch.
The man would in fact be foolish if he didn't ask for the above information to be sent to him.

She may have the visa + ticket and she may not (probably not).
She may be launching a WMVM trip for all we know even if she does have a ticket.

The OP never mentioned whether his lady has ever been to the U.S.
Readers here just assumed that she hasn't.

But I must say, the photos he posted of him/her make them both look like poster girl/boy's.
Why would two poster girl/boys be starting up something as crazy as this is beyond my comprehension.

One thing is certain however; this thread will generate pages and pages of  gossip, innuendos, recommendations, arguments, heartache/break etc. before it's finally done.

How do you find peoples pics with google? That sounds like a good tool for rooting out scammers.

Jon,

Let's back up.  Your primary concern was the issue of her English.  You received some excellent advice from several posters about the issue, and I think it was helpful.

You did not ask if we thought your woman had a legitimate interest in you.   Yet you received such comments, and your story has attracted the cynics. 

Should you ignore them?  No.  Keep in mind that newcomers such as yourself do not know much about the venture of American man meets Russian woman.  And there are many pitfalls.  Some of the posts made in your thread are intended to make you aware of the negative possibilities.

The critical posts should make you think, not angry.   I suggest that you evaluate all critical comments as to whether they are possibly applicable.   You know more facts than we do and know best.  Do not let these comments get under your skin. 

Frankly, it is very rare for a RW to pay her own way for a first meeting.   Yes, your woman has a successful business, yet such women are usually busy with work and will not take the time to write 400 messages.  And they usually have many choices in their own country.   Having said that, I can understand her motivations, e. g., concern about the conflict in eastern Ukraine.  Thus her interest and plans albeit rare are still logical IMO.

Do not suddenly behave suspiciously with this woman.  The woman likes the way you have been communicating with her.    So keep doing what you have been doing. You have followed the guidelines such as RWD's ten commandments.  For example, you have moved from communicating through an agency to communicating directly via Skype.  Thus, I see no reason to become alarmed.

Keep in mind that I am in the small group of optimists at RWD.  Frankly, I believe some of the posters here have not had a good laugh in a coon's age.   If I had followed their advice, I would not be happily married today to an incredible woman.  Yet these same posters have much experience. 

My last advice.  Send a PM to GreginGa and ask him to call you.  He lives an hour or so from you.  He is a good guy with much experience with UW,  good and bad.

I assure you sir we are real..stop by my house south of Atlanta GA USA if you are in doubt I live at 6015 Buchanan Circle in McDonough, GA my name is Jon Conarton.

Hey Jon, you shouldn't be giving out your private information. People can learn who your ex wife's name, your phone number and even your business. There are trouble makers on the internet who have nothing better to do than to contact your ex, slander your business and mess up your life. I've had people doubt my relationship for years and I never felt a need to prove anything.


Keep up posted whether or not she shows up and how things went. Paranoya will destroya so assume she's going to make the trip and enjoy your time together.

She may have the visa + ticket and she may not (probably not).
She may be launching a WMVM trip for all we know even if she does have a ticket.

And why would that be wrong?

[kk3ds]

so........... what happened to the trip?
