Rainy days in Kiev.

[docetae]

We exchanged perhaps 4 mails on Luckylovers.net before we met in Kiev a cold Saturday evening of October.. A business travel planned, not enough time in her city. Just a few hours, one evening before taking another plane the morning after. For me, that was only a good way to kill time. If I had knew...

We met in the hall of my hotel, rain was falling outside. She is tall, beautiful. The time to share an umbrella, we started to walk together. She was trying to understand my French accent. Despite we were not speaking a very good English, we spent 4 hours together in front of a fire in the bar of an hotel, talking about everything. She is intelligent and talented. Before she left, I asked her if she wanted to see me again. She said yes.

Something special was happening, for me, these hours were different. I just wanted to be with her again. I need her near me.

It was an evidence, I needed to see her again. I call her, she was ready to take one day off for me. I took the train, 5 hours later I was with her again. She is unique.

The Saturday she invited me at her home, to meet her son and to share a lunch together. Her cousin came too, staying with her son while we went for another long walk. I left the day after, returning back to Kharkov.

We are sharing the same feeling, we know each one that only time spent together will allow us to know if this can work on the long term, we discussed about it, beyond the mutual attraction, we want to try.

In 2 days together, she has brought in my life more than I had in years. We have the same age, the same humor, the same lifestyle,same goals and even the same brand of clothes... She invited me for the new year. We are counting days.

docetae,

So it went well huh???  It's great when it happens, isn't it!   

Like you I knew very early that I had found someone spectacular and the thought of meeting anyone else seemed futile - if not unfair to anyone else I would meet.

Whilst you're feeling wonderful about your new friendship/relationship I have to be the bearer of bad news. 

 You're now the slave of an addiction that will only be satiated by having more time together... and if that time together is as satisfying the addiction only grows stronger.

I don't know if anyone can really articulate what "IT" is...  but when "IT" bites...  it's impossible to resist.

Keep things going one step at a time and foster the relationship you want to have.  Of course anything can happen at this early stage but I saw the "outcome" more as a test of my personal qualities than of anything else.

Best wishes for the next weeks and months... oh, and congratulations! 

Kuna

You are right Kuna...

During these days I have met 3 other women. The first one was met trough an agency, probably the worst experience of my life. I realized how the agency system by itself is flawed, women are just learning to be spoiled and become professional daters... Demand is superior to the offer...second one trough newspaper ads. Everything was fine but nothing like I felt with my first meeting.

Last one was particular. We corresponded during a very long time (11 months), even when I was with another woman, she has been always aware of everything. She wanted to meet me and traveled from St Petersburg... We realized that our personality were too different but I discovered a true friend.

Docetae,

Well written and very interesting. 

You have been meeting UW/RW for a long time, and now it seems that your effort has been rewarded with someone very special.   

As you know, New Year's is the most important holiday in Ukraine.  So for her to invite you to spend the holiday with her ....it proves she thinks that you are special too.

Hope it continues to develop.

Benoit, I'm so happy for you.   Your latest story is so romantic and beautiful.   Most of all, I'm glad you did not settle for the Confidential Connections girl that had you wrapped up for so long.

You were wise to keep looking until you found what appears to be the ideal girl for you.  Congrats!
