I wrote back the following letter: Hello my dear Tatyana; I want to thank you for your prompt response, I must admit that I am writing with great hesitation. You had mentioned that I did not say much in my first letter, I beg to disagree with you. I noticed the questions that I asked were not answered. Let me get to the point. There is a saying in my country and I am sure that it is in yours also. "If it sounds too good to be true then chances are it is not true." I would be willing to help you out and see what happens between us without questions asked. But at the time that you wrote I did not realize you had such a short time frame. We have exchanged only two letters and you are asking me for over $1,700.00. The money is no problem, but my guess is that if I sent you the money or to our agency I would not hear from you or ever see you. I am very much aware that scam artists have been working from your country and the other countries of the former Russian Empire. It is very easy to find a name, picture and information bout us in many of the singles registries across the Internet. I do not mean to imply that you or your agency is operating a scam; the fact is I simply do not now you well enough to make a judgment. All I have is two letters and two pictures, which does not in any way give me enough information to make any kind of judgment. At the same time I wonder how many more you have written. As I mentioned, I would be most willing to help but looking at the facts I am wondering what is going on. There is a big age difference between us, you asked nothing about me in order to make a value judgment. I am aware of the economic situation in your country but I also know that young or old women are not so quick to give up common sense and take such a leap as to visit a person they know nothing about. There is no doubt that you are a very attractive lady, and perhaps it is your attractiveness and the photo of you in a bathing suit that caused me to be so skeptical. I think I would be a fool to pass up an opportunity to make a life with you; but I also think I would be a fool to send that much money without any proof that what you say is correct. I am very much aware of the student exchange program; my youngest son participated in it when he was studding French. I do apologize for being so blunt but considering that we have only two months until your deadline I must be in order to make an intelligent decision in the matter. I know that in order for a student to participate in the program their government must first sanction it. The agency that sent me the information was in no way related to the Ukrainian Government. My dear, if you can help me out on this matter and bring some clarification I would greatly appreciate it and maybe we can work something out. Love, John "Learn the difference between important facts and unimportant facts." - Napoleon Hill Needless to say I never heard from her again. She must have forgotten what I looked like because two weeks later she again contacted me by Dream Mates.

I am 25, Ive never be married and I not have children. I live city Kiev in Ukraine with parents in apartment house. I have a dog I love very much. she name Putts. :) She is very pretty and cute. I do not have a computer or telephone at home. My father suppos to buy telephone soon but it is big investment in Ukraine to have own phone. I use my friend telephone when can. Its not easy for me to get around because have no car, and life here not hold many promise. I a very romantic person by nature i think. and i believe in real love. I looking for my soulmate and I know that if search for real love I will some day to find, even this way use internet. :) I optmistic and I have good sense humour, I full of energy and love and ready to share my life with someone special. I am belief comit to one man. I would like find a man who some like my father and with his value. Although many young man try talk to me, I more interested in secure man who is good knowlegable, kind, loving and true to me. I will never leave a man like his, not matter to age or to looks. i not this shallow. My country condition much different. A woman is not common to leaveman. Its usually other way around. And the woman goes on for long time after by herself. With meet you, I am not seek citizenship in you country. I want to be happy like all people. I want chance in life to be good wife with good family. I can be very happy with husband who love me no matter age or look. i think man worry about this too much when eet to me, so they i not have chance show to he that they handsome or special to me for many reasons. not only one or two. I just expect that man respects me and loves me and family and take me out sometimes :~). But mostly, I want to help my man as he probably works really hard to support me and family. I dont like games. and I not play games. I am very honest and i think considerate. I have very good heart and I dream alot bout love. Each night I hold my Teddy. But now I want hold my man. :) I want to spread wings as woman and I want to do this with man who love me and protect me always. I know I be taking my chances with a new an, but in life we can find no happiness unless we willing to take chance. So I can say, I have trust that you will love me and protect to me, at least will do all to earn you love and I hope you will spend some time letting our love grow together when we to meet. I not looking for casual friend or penpal. Correspondence is expensive for me and so I take it very serious. I do not want play on internet. I want to tart my life with partner. I dont know what else to write you about myself. If you have questions, I will answer to my best. Please remember, I cannot always reply very next day. E-mail is expensive for my poor budget, besides, I hope we can save some conversation for when we should meet or that I may to call you sometime from friends or agency. :) ou can ask me everything and we may have chance be together to build life, a family and fulfilling both our dreams. I get so excited about this life. :)) I want you to think of me as I would think of you. We do not have to be apart. Why should we? Life very short. I want as many years with my partner as possible. Your heart will tell you. If my fate, of what believe to be fate is right, your heart may belong to me even now... ;) Am I right? ) i hope so. When I am meet to you, I should tell you, that I will not let you go easily. If you good to me, I will not let you go at all. ;) Im not like some woman, who bounce from one guy to the next guy. I give EVERYTHING in my heart to make my relationship work. I have only had 2 boyfriends in all life. They were both too immature. But I hurt for a long time after each. I dont want to through again such immature relationship or to hurt this way again. There is way we can to meet very soon.
