Thanks Vaughn,
I appreciate your comments. You've always had my best interests
in mind. I realize that. I've learned a lot in the last year. Larisa was
and continues to be enigmatic.  But, too much 'mystery' is not
a good thing and can thwart a deep connection. I wish her all the best.
Anna numbs the pain and already brings me some pleasure, some
optimism for the future.

An excellent trip report, PG. Yet for some reason after reading it I felt like I wanted to reach out, grab you by the neck, and give to you a noogie or two. I think about the great effort that three women went to to meet  you and to reach out to you and you seem as if you do not realize it or the significance of any of it.

I do realize that I have only a portion of the full story but I can only surmise by your own words. I don't know what you accomplished by taking this trip. And why are you meeting women who do not speak English? This only complicates a situation that is complicated enough without adding to it something else.

You are a heck of a nice guy, PG. One of the lads that I would like to see succeed but, man, had I been with you and witnessed this I do believe that I would have felt compelled to find a gun and then shoot you and than I would have had my way with all three of those women.

Photo,

You're on the rebound, obviously carrying a good bit of excess baggage.

In your shoes, I would wait at least 6 months or more before doing anything, travelling anywhere or contacting anyone.  Just forget RW for a while until you are really ready and truly free.

Photoguy,

I was not reading boards when your story first unfolded.  Your first meetings with Larissa, the problems with your K-1, etc.  You received some criticism from the seasoned members.  These members usually can quickly grasp a situation; however, the individuality of each man and woman varies so much that only you can comprehend the deep truth, provided you are thinking clearly.

Please do not accept my following comment as criticism.  It is best that you do not write a reaction.  Rather, just think about it and later decide if it applies to your case.

Here goes:  Your words reveal you to be a nice man.  And being a nice man, you can not help but feel sorry for Larissa.  Pity is not a healthy basis for continuing a relationship.  It is a negative feeling.  Further, RW do not want pity.  They have too much pride for pity.  They have too much of a survivor nature to need pity.   Pity humiliates them.

More important, feeling pity will compel you to be a white knight.  Photoguy, you will make a glorious White Knight, probably none better.  But it distracts you from finding a woman with whom you could share happiness. 

A white knight may make you feel good temporarily, but in many cases the woman when she gets back on her feet will no longer need you and she will move on, regardless of how much you helped her.  Oh yes, she will remember you, but you will not be part of her new life.  I think Larissa, in this case, is one of these women.  Yes, she has many troubles, but if she really wanted you, now is when she would cling to you and seek your comfort.  She is not doing this.  So she is either not feeling anything for you, or she has an untreated psychological condition.  Either is bad, real bad.

As you think about this, ask yourself if you are happy that you went to Ukraine.  Did you have a good time?  Did you return home with feelings of joy and hope?  Is your heart singing?  You are not an ugly man.   You have a great character.  You make enough money to go to Ukraine to date women.  Many women would love to love you.   Should you not spend your energy in pursuit of a positive, uplifting relationship, one that makes your heart sing?!

Yeah, Photo dude has to turn the white kight into the black night. Women seem to like the bad boys while at the sametime they take advantage of the good boys.

You remind me an old joke:
Reagan, Nixon and Clinton are traveling on the Titanic and it starts to sink.
Reagan: “The ship is sinking, let’s save the women and children’
Nixon: ‘Oh, fuck the women and children’
Clinton: ‘Gee, do we have time for this?’

Mir,

What does your desire for murdering 1 and raping 3 have to do with this TR?   :o

I have read all the posts. There is no reason to state that you would shoot him and then have your way with the 3 women after reading the posts.  It's a TR, simple as that.

My apologies Mir.  I thought it was your statement since it was not in quotes and it was not identified to have been written by someone else.
