Hello dear friend!

My name is Maria. I am 26 years old. I'm from Russia, city Cheboksary.
I live together with my mum and I work as adviser on sale home
appliances.
I have many various hobbies: sport, a photo, drawing. I dream to have
strong and happy family.
It's my purpose in life. I want to be happy and to do happy my family.
Recently I thought that I have it already. However.......
I wish to tell you history which have pushed me write to you.
6-7 months ago I have got acquainted with man from your country.
His name is Peter. Our meeting was at a seminar in city St.Peterburg.
It was the working meeting. Between us began the novel.
It was so fast and I thought that it's my man. Through 3 days he has
left home.
We have understood that letters can not replace our meeting face to face
again.
Peter has told that I should arrive to him!!! I was very glad during
that moment.
I wrote the application for reception visa. I waited reception of visa
approximately half of year.
All this time Peter called and wrote to me letters. All things was very
good.
I have received the invitation from the ambassador for reception visa.
My director has given me holiday from work and I have gone to Moscow to
receive visa.
I said this good news to Peter, but he told that he does not want our
meeting.
He played with me. He has told me that he has wife with 3!!!!!! children
and now he don't want our meeting. I have been broken...
I could not think that it was game with my feelings..... I did not think
that people are so severe.......
Now I am in Moscow and waiting for reception visa.
I don't want that all was gone for nothing and will be glad if my visa
will be useful to our meeting.
I could arrive already in 7-8 days, but I have problem. I don't know any
man who would like my arrival.
I hope that it will not sound silly if I will ask you about our meeting
and good time together..
I don't know your ideas about my letter, but it would be fine if we
could meet and have some weeks or months together.
I want to use my visa for trip to your country and search man with which
I would like to have happy and strong family.
I was never married and have no any children. I'm woman which ready to
creation family with good man.
I don't know about you anything, but I want it very much.
It would be fine if we could meet, to do friendship or more than simply
friendship.
I will be happy if you also have a free time and we could meet soon.
I don't know about your plans at present time, but I sincerely hope that
we can have meeting with you in the near future.
You can write all that you want. Ask any questions which interest you.
I hope that you understand my English :) I began to study English
approximately 1,5 year ago.
Write to me back and I will tell more about myself and send my photos.

Please, write to me back and send your photos on my regular e-mail:

Have a good day,
Maria

I would be willing to bet that Wendy here is an African male.

Maria, I am sure is a Russian male :wink:

Quite right about Wendy Ralph.
Todays fresh post.
We would be like two vases of water poured into one larger more beautiful vase, in which we would be one. Holding each other, breathing each other, tasting each other as we watch the sun rise and set in each others arms. Laughing, crying, singing, praying, playing,
