Introduced by a business owner

[phantom]

When I was dealing with the agencies in YO, I had made the mistep of getting committed (Stupid Yes) to a girl without meeting.  When I wound up in the hospital, taken by ambulance.  I was laid up for a while, after being released. 

Anyway, I had gotten the ladies address, and sent her some flowers through a delivery service, owned by a man and his Russian wife.  I tried to get her email and she explained, she didn't have regular access to the internet (I found out later, it was a lie)  she broke contact and a few weeks later, as I had gotten aquainted with the owner and his wife, the wife's best friend, had a cousin that was looking for a good man, and they introduced yes.  She speaaks English, we email, cam-chat, she pays for KB, so we can talk, and of course, the phone.  She's not on any dating sites, and we talk on many subjects and have fun, she even modeled her new bikini for me.
I asked if she wanted some help with the internet and she said no, she can do it herself. 

As there's no translators, it's one on one and I will be hopeing for the best, and posting any questions I have here.  I'm used to the agencies and translators.

Welcome and thanks for sharing. Hopefully you have recovered from your hospital stay. Hopefully you've learned from your brief experience so far not to commit before meeting. How soon do you plan on going to see her? So far it seems like your new woman has potential. Then again she could be well coached by the business owner. YO has had a lot of scams in that area.

Good luck and let us know how we can help. The only stupid question is the unasked one!

Be sure to check out the RWPedia in the top right of the screen.

Yes, recovered nicely Taz, thanks for answering my post.  The lady don't live in YO and the business owners are in the UK, as he's British and she's Russian.  The lady has never asked for money or anything.

Good to hear you are getting along nicely. It is good that she hasn't asked for money so far. Some women can wait for a bigger payday but I am not THAT suspicious. To some extent you'll have to use your gut instincts. If you don't trust them yet, bounce things off the folks here. We are normally pretty good about helping to sniff out scammers. Of course you can't catch all of them and you are right in the thick of things so it is ultimately up to you of course.

Good luck in your pursuit!

Thanks taz.

I'm hoping she's not a scammer.  She has been in contact almost everyday on the IM, I will be meeting her in person this year (Yes Groovl, this year, passport visa, etc.)  September or October, she started a new job and moved to another city, we've been discussing
our meeting.  So far, there has been no problem with her.  Her English is very good, she gets stuck sometime, and grabs her dictionary or desribes it to me and I say the word, which she replies yes or no to.
