I will tell you that there are a few serious ladies on this site but for the most part are only interested in having you chat to spend money. Once they figured out that you are getting wise to them or have sent them gifts they suddenly disappear or come with an excuse not to continue the correspondence. No one really reads your profile as I have stated that I was not looking for anyone younger than 40 years of age but constantly get bombarded with requests and letters from girls young enough to be my grand daughters. Also for the guys that say that we are lazy, I have been to the Ukraine and that is when I really discovered how the operations work. I spoke with one guy on the plane coming home that actually his family to meet with the woman he had been corresponding with only to be turned away or put off. Best of luck to you but beware. I know that it is a scam
