Reaching a moment of truth | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/06/05/reaching-a-moment-of-truth
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. Reaching a moment of truth. The trip to Odessa was a tiring day. I sleep in. It looks like my date as well as my translator have done the same. My translator calls me in the afternoon to tell me that we will be meeting later tonight. I meet with my translator in the afternoon to debrief and to figure out what to do for the dinner date. Rare case indeed. I see that all the time dating at home too. Somehow, we are still both making time for each other.

Huwebes, Disyembre 29, 2011. Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Scammers But Were Afraid to A Anti SCAM Blog. Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Scammers But Were Afraid to Ask. Is it possible to punish the scammer? But to punish a scammer a man should send her at least some money. He should have something with what to go to the police. Then he has two options.

Quest to Ukraine | Just another WordPress.com site | Page 2
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/page/2
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. What is really behind things? What happened in the next call was unexpected. She says she is uncomfortable asking, but she wanted to take a vacation by the sea, and she wanted to know if I could help with such a trip. That got me very confused. Where did this come from? The first thing on my mind was that maybe this is part of the scam process: start asking for more money. She’s too independent to take someone else’s advice. I have heard other guys...

Lessons learned part 1: make me new | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/09/04/lessons-learned-part-1-make-me-new
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. Lessons learned part 1: make me new. By a certain point in life, we find that relationship attempts all lead to a quick end in every path. This is the point when we need to do something new. We all want someone who can tell us how to make things better, and to show us that better way. Books and blogs and advisors espouse a hundred philosophies of what to do, leaving us no more the wiser. First, there is a rejection of the status quo or the old way ...

Third communication upon return | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/08/12/third-communication-upon-return
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. Third communication upon return. We missed each other a few times on skype. The problem with sending SMS messages on skype is that they are only received by the other person when both people are on skype at the same time. That makes it a lot harder to schedule a time if you miss each other at the appointed time. We just have to leave the computer on and wait for the other person to get online on their end. The SMS conversation goes well, but we don...

First communication upon returning | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/07/17/first-communication-upon-returning
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. First communication upon returning. Back in April, I sent Anya a laptop. It has been sitting in her place unused since then, because she still needed a router. We just never had good enough communication while we were apart to figure out how to deal with something as simple as that. Nothing is ever easy if there is a translation problem. For the next two days, I left skype on in the background on my computer, as I waited for her to come online.

Lessons learned part 3: silence is golden | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/09/21/lessons-learned-part-3-silence-is-golden
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. Lessons learned part 3: silence is golden. Someone, who I know, posted a lengthy comment to my last posting. I deleted it. Other than mentioning this, I won’t acknowledge it any further. I only bring this up, because it leads to what I want to say about lessons learned, part 3: keep communication with other people to a minimum. Don’t tell other people, and don’t listen to other people. People are judgmental and curious. I don’t want to te...As for ...

Living up to commitments | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/08/24/living-up-to-commitments
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. Living up to commitments. For the next week, I avoided skype. I avoided my email. I was not happy with the way I just walked away mid-conversation when she asked me for money. A few days after that, our translator emailed me. She asked me how things are, and then told me her take on the situation. All this time, I was suspecting that she was the coach on how to scam me, but her email doesn’t sound like this is the case.

One week later | Quest to Ukraine
https://pryvet.wordpress.com/2012/08/23/one-week-later
Just another WordPress.com site. About and Contact Info. We don’t communicate until a week later. This is nothing out of the ordinary, because this has been the frequency in the past. In the next skype communication, she says that something has happened since the last time we talked. Okay I brace myself for the news. She says she is sick and she has been going to the hospital. That’s why she didn’t have time to contact me. After that call, I am contacting people I know to find out how medicare works in U...
