Dear Elena, I have been corresponding to a girl in Russia who called herself Alexandra Usynina. She told me was planning to visit my country on a work visa. After a few e-mails it was decided that she would come to Edmonton in Canada to be with me. Finally on the fifth letter she had said that she was in Moscow and about to make the final preperations for your trip. She then told me she needed 600 us to complete the preperations. She proceded to give me exact details on how to send the money through western union. I had been skeptical the whole time we were e-mailing each other. At that point I punched her name into my computer and came across your site. I then found the EXACT same pictures and e-mails she had sent to someone else. I guess the reason I was skeptical was because all her e-mails kept coming to my Bulk Inbox. I am now going to send a donation to you and your service. The small donation I send to you is alot less than 600 us dollars I may have sent her if I hadn't come across your site. Please accept my donation and my sincere gratitude. keep up the good work. ~Shawn

Hello Jim.

Thank you for your reply. I am very glad you wrote to me.
I am sorry you was unable to find my profile at personals. I couldn't
make it to work. 
To be honest I am a little sceptical about dating services in Internet
and I didn't think it really works and I havn't checked my email too
long. I just made a try... and you wrote. :) Thank you. You made me
surprised. Good surprise. 

By the way my profile doesn't work still so I will describe myself here.
My birthday is January 27, 1974. I am 31 now. I am Russian.
My height is 165 cm (5'5"), weigt - 53 kg (123 lb). I will attach a
picture of me, so you can see my appearance. 

I live in Russia. And I have never been to the US. But I hope I will
visit this country one day. I live in a small russian town Vetluga. It
is about 80 km from the city Nizhni Novgorod. The population is about 15000.


I don't smoke and drink rarely. Prefer red wine or a bottle of good
beer. I work as a doctor in local clinic. I am a practicing physician.
Most people think it is boring, but I like it and find it very
interesting. I like to help people to be healthy and teach them how to
save their health. I have a university degree from medical faculty. 

I keep active life, interesting in sports and outdoors. Also I am
interesting in history, geographics and social sciences. I have a lot
of hobbies, like reading and listening to music. Cookery is one of my
favourite things. Also I like animals and children. 

As for my character, I don't like to tell about it. I try to be good
person. Enough emotional and sensible. My best qualities: loyalty,
honesty, sense of humour, natural curiosity and simplicity. I know
that I can't be objective telling about myself. At least I want people
think about me this way. :) 

What about religion, I am a Christian but not too religious. I think
more spiritual. 

Marital status: single, never been married. Have had some strong
relationships in my life but currently is free. No children. 

I want simple things. To be happy, to have someone to share my life
with, to have family, to love and be loved. I am not sure Internet can
help with it, but I like to try new things. Internet is good medium
for intercommunication. And it is silly not to use that. 

I want to meet kind man with good soul and great sense of humor. I
would like he could be my friend, life partner and lover. I want to
feel his need in me, his support and understanding. I don't need any
prince. He just should be kind, sympathetic, decent and honest man. 

I know that great distance may become the problem. So I want to start
from friendship. I like to make friends and if things will not work
between us we would stay in touch as good friends. 

Well, I think it is enough for now. Tryed to write just a short note
:)

I am sorry if something is wrong. This is my first experience in
Internet dating. Tell me about yourself and what you think. 

Thank you for your interest. Hope we will begin good contact and who
knows what may happen. 


Yours truly.
Kolonka




Hi Jim.

Thank you for your reply. I enjoy reading your letter.
I love your pictures. At you kind eyes. You should be
very good person. In Vetluge there is wood and very beautiful
river. At us also float by boats in the summer. In the winter
the river freezes. I am surprised that your ancestors from Ukraine.
You were there ? Tell to me about children. You miss on them?
Population Vetlugi approximately 15000 person. Small city, but
very beautiful

I am very pleased you interest in me. Jim I want us to keep our
correspondence and to know each other better. Write me about your
life, send pictures. I promise to do the same. 

By the way Jim if you note any mistakes in my letter don't be shy
to report them to me.
I have been studying English for some years at University and then by
myself. I like to read books in English. And I still think I am not
good enough to speak and to communicate easily. Your corrections would
help me much. I write it by myself with a dictionary and I want to
improve my language skills. 

You know our meeting was a chance. I have been surfing Internet for
some months. The first time I used Internet was for my work. I read
about new methods in therapeutics. Then I started to surf Internet for
two or three times a week. And now it is one of my favourite things to
do. Recently I have interested in dating service and decided to try
it. I choose several profiles and you replied. :-) Others havn't wrote
me. I am glad we've met. 

Jim I use Internet at Internet cafe. They have several computers
here for public use. I am here two or three times a week so don't
worry if I can't reply fast. I will write you each time I am here. 

Jim I still can't imagine you are in the USA. Sounds silly? :-) I
have never been to the States. I know your country just from the
movies and TV. I would like to learn more about it and your people. I
think we could give each other more full images about our countries by
corresponding. I also hope to visit the USA some day. I like to travel
very much. It is great to see the world all over. I haven't travel
much. I was in several russian cities and once at the Black Sea.
My favourite city is St.Petersburg. Very
beautiful place. 

Well, I am a little confused and I don't know what to say. I hope all
this stuff is not too boring to read. :-)

Jim I have already told you that I want to find someone through
Internet. I just wanted to say that it is my serious intention. I am
interested in you and I want us to be good friends. 

Write me back. Waiting for your letter.

Kolonka

Hello, my friend.

I thank you for your letter and your interest in me. I should apologize
for delay with the answer to you. I am sorry I couldn't write you
earlier. Jim, it is interesting to read your message.
I love your images! Your happiness of children!!
I influence the government, our city is small for private clinics.
The doctor I began from institute. I love romantic films about love.
My favourite American film "Flight"
You will show me hospital??? It - the truth??? I work 7 years.
It is difficult for me to compare the Russian and American education.
In doctors of Russia not such big people as in America.
I will have opportunity to visit America soon. Doctors of our hospital will
go in the USA on training.
I want to try to pass interview. I have good chance (the English language).
We will have opportunity to meet and embrace. You want it?

I want you to know my real name. My name is Alexandra. I used my
nickname for my security. Hope you understand. Now I trust you.

I want to know more about you. Please, tell me about your family,
friends and people that you know. What is your usual day? I will also
tell you what you want to know about me. 

I have good time to correspond with you. I enjoy it. I can say it is
becoming one of my favourite things. I don't remember if I told you
about my hobbies or things I like to do for fun. It seems to me that
people who wants to have some relationship must have the same ideas
and goals in life and also the same ways for rest and fun. 
I like different activities like sport, walking, going-out and
outdoors. I can't say that I am engaged in sport. I just like it. I
like bicycle-riding, swiming and beach especially. Also I like to
dance. I dance classic and modern dances. I am an amateur not a
professional. I think the real woman should be beautiful both soul
and body. My mother teached me to play piano. I also can sing. I will
try to learn some english songs. Hope you can hear them someday.
Smile. 

I enjoy cooking. I prefer italian and russian food. My favourite
dishes are different soups and salads. I cook great Ukrainian borsch.
It is a soup made of beet, meat, cabbage and carrot. Very tasty. Smile.

As I said I like reading. I read different books, but prefer books
about history and countries. I read a lot of Russia and America. These
countries are great. 

As for fun, I like the same thing like all people. Movie, walking,
theatre. I like to drink tea with friends in cafe. We talked about
everything and nothing. Smile. I don't have a lot of friends, but all
they are good people. To be honest I don't like 'empty' people. My
friends are almost my friends from childhood and youth. They are
already almost married. Don't think that I am close person. I like to
meet new people and make friends. I am easy-going and I easily strike
up new acquaintance. From another side I am not easy approachable
woman. I am serious. I think it is from my upbringing. 

Jim, I don't remember if I told you about my family. I live
alone. My mom died about two years ago. And I have never seen my
father. The most close person now is my uncle, my mother's brother. He
lives with his family, but I am not close to them. His wife thinks my
uncle is my lover. Actually we just friends. I think he is like father
for me. Silly woman, she can't understand the friendship between man
and woman. I am not angry at her. I am just sorry she is so
narrow-minded. 

My mother was a doctor too, a surgeon. She was a member of charitable
organization and she came to Chechnya when there was a war. Mother
always wanted to help people. She was the kindest person I knew. She
was killed there. The truck detonated at the mine when they
transported wounded people to hospital. Everyone was killed. I wanted
to come with her to there, but she didn't allow me. Now I know why. 

From my birth my mother wanted me to become a teacher. But I didn't. I
had enough strict upbringing. I had been not allowed to date with boys
until I got 20 years old. My mother was old-fashion person. Probably
it is not bad. I loved my mother and respect her. She could give me
good upbringing. We didn't have any conflicts. I always try to
understand her. She loved me too and just wanted me to be happy. It
was the most hard time in my life when she died. I thank my uncle, he
was with me and supported me. 

I talked with my uncle about you. Are you surprised? We often had
confiding talking. He understands me in full. I said him that I meet a
man on dating service in Internet. And that this man is from another
country. Uncle said that it is great. I asked him what he thinks if I
would like to visit this country and maybe to move there. He said that
it is OK, if I feel I want it. I am glad with this. 

Well, hope it is not too boring to read. Smile. You see sometimes man
must sit and think about his life and about what he is and what he
wants. It seems to me that I have this time now. 

What I want? Simple things. Happiness, family, careful husband. I put
spiritual life to the first, not material things. I am not looking for
better life or getting rich. I am looking for full life. Why I can't
find husband here in Russia? I can, but I don't want. I see how my
mother lived, I see how other people live in Russia. Yes, here is bad
economics and I don't want to live here. I love my Motherland but I
don't like the State. I want to have comfortable life and don't always
be in searching good job and better salary. I want to dedicate my life
to my husband and my family. I don't want to say that I am lazy. I
like to work, but I don't want to dedicate my life to my work. I hope
you understand what I am talking about. 

I see that many russian women try to go out from Russia looking for
better life. They marry foreigners to get citizenship of another
state. Then they divorce. I don't like them. I believe in marriage for
life. I want to marry for love. 

Jim, I want you to understand me in full, until we will make some
any steps. 

Tell me what you think about this all and what else you would like to know.

Well, this letter seems to be long, so I will close.
Until next time.

Yours 
Usynina Alexandra.
P.S. My dog on nickname Рэкс. (the German sheep-dog)



Hello Jim.

How are you? Hope you are OK. I am all right. I missed you these days
when I was unable to read your letters. Smile. I don't know how it may
happen so fast but I feel that we have been friends for years.

I love your pictures.Children's figure has forced me to cry. What big soul!
You happy father! Precisely! I already love all of you.
I shall sing necessarily for you. We shall sing together. It so?
My mum operated the wounded soldiers. I do not like to write about
It. Without insults. We can orally discuss. The Internet of cafe works 24 hours.
Children play there in games. They are not searched by parents. It is horror.
I till now have not taken advantage of that post card. Forgive. At me mad days.
I shall make it. I promise. Thanks.
I shall introduce you to the uncle, you will be friends.
You are right, that we have the same ideas in soul.

What happened with you these days? Here things are the same. You know
sometimes it seems to me that life stopped here. And you live the same
day everyday and it scares me. I may live all my life and I can't
notice that life is going away. Jim you make my days another.
Full of life and joy. 

Thank you for your writing. It really brights my days. Don't think
that is just words. I always mean what I say... Or at least I try to.
Smile. 

Jim I can't still believe you are so far from me. Yes, I
understand it but can't imagine it. Yes, computer and Internet are
like a window to the world. It is fantastic. 

You know our acquaintance made me to think a little differently about
people living in the world. Good change. Of course I knew about other
countries and people but before it was like an idea, that I saw on TV,
read in books and newspapers. But mass media can't give you the real
situation about another country. With your letters I can feel your
real life. Understand me please, I have just touched to different
culture, life and people through you. And I saw it is real. Jim I
am a person that doesn't believe until he touchs. Smile. I realize you
are the same person as I am. We speak different languages, live in the
different countries but we want the same things in our lifes. I feel
that I am a part of something very huge and important. Thank you for
giving me this feeling. I want to travel all over the world, to meet
new people and to get new experience. I really think it is great fun
and useful. What do you think? I actually may look naive but this is
what I think. Smile. 

Jim today at my work I have learnt an interesting news and I want 
to tell you about it.
I already spoke you about an opportunity of my trip to America.
Every year the Ministry of Health of Russia carry out the international 
exchange of doctors between different country. This year they enrol 
doctors for groups that will come to the US. Russian doctors will work 
on probation for 10 months. After that they will pass the qualifying 
examination and get the medical license. 

They may take doctors from our hospital. I want to try to apply the 
application and pass an interview. They have rigid requirements: age, 
good education and experience. My specialization meets their 
requirements and I know English language. 

I think I have a good chance to take this vacancy because just a few 
doctors there can speak English. Many have their family and can't 
leave them for a such long time. I am a little excited. This may be 
really big change in my life. We shall meet! You are glad
to this? Details to us to inform later, I shall write to you at once.


Yesterday I met my friends. We usually meet at someone's home or go to
our favourite cafe. This is pretty nice place. It is small and very
cosy. They don't sell alcohol there so it is not very popular. It
seems strange? I am not sure you know but usually russians drink a lot. 
Some russian comic said "the drinking is Russian national pastime".
Smile... It sounds funny but it is not too good in real life. It is
always loudly where alcohol is on sale. Russian people in common don't
know when to stop in doing something. Smile... If they drink they
get drunk. If they love... they fall in love. Smile...

My friends don't like to drink too as I do. They are almost my friends
from university or childhood, and girls from my work. We talk, drink
tea, coffe, joke, have fun. Very nice people. I like them all.

It's a pitty we can't meet often but a time or too in month. They
almost are married and have family and children so they are constantly
busy. Well the matter is that I told them about you. They were really
happy for me. They already asked when I come to you. Smile.
I explained we are just friends but they still bantered me all
evening. They say hello to you. I would like to introduce you to them
one day.

Well I must go now. I will try to write you sooner.
Kisses.
The big greeting from me to children.
Always yours.Alexandra.

p.s. Jim I really glad we "met". Smile. Keep more writing.
