Again I think some words are spelt wrong here, so the translator link is messing it all up:


А я планирую остаться в Испаний до четврерга. Я думаю, если успею, сьездить в Билбао на один день, может быть в среду. Но этот город далеко от Барселона, поэтому может быть не успею. Просто там живет одинь приятель с кем я познакомились 9 лет назад в Праге.

К стати, я тебе пошлю одну фотку меня со своим племняником.

Мне тоже страшно, я сама немного удивляюсь, как на такое решилась Но, в любом случае нам не узнать, разные мы или нет, пока не увидим друг друга

And I plan to remain in Spain till Thursday. I think, if I shall be in time, to go to Bilbao for one day, can be on Wednesday. But this city is far from Barcelona, therefore it can be I shall not be in time. There lives the friend with whom I have got acquainted 9 years ago in Prague.

To стати, I shall send you one picture of me with the nephew.

To me too it is terrible, I am surprised a little, how on such was solved But, in any case to us to not learn, different we or not, yet shall not see each other

The last part is a little weird. Maybe Daria can translate the meaning of it. Smile

I also got that through the translator, but I was hoping (esp for the last part) for something a little more sensical. I get the gist of it, but not the true meaning.

To me, it seems like the last part is an apology for not being able to meet someone in Bilbao. The old friend, perhaps?

Translation posted by yorbcbud is ok, some corrections-

But this city is far from Barcelona, therefore it can happen I will not be in time.
By the way, I shall send you one photo of me with the nephew.

I'm terrified and surprised a little how I dared to do it. Anyway, we can't
tell if we are different or not until we see each other.

Ask and you shall receive:::

But I'm planning to remain in Spain until Thursday. I think that, if I have time, I'll go to Bilbao for one day, maybe on Wednsday. But that city is far from Barcelona, so I may not have the time. It's just that one of my friends, whom I met 9 years ago in Prague, lives there.

By the way, I'll send you a photo with me and my nephew on it.

I'm also scared, and also a bit amazed how I could go through with this (but more positive), but, in any case, we can't find out whether we're different or not without meeting each other.

Well, people might stop helping me translate if they knew the full story. Surprised

This is a guy I have been dating on and off for over a year. He used to live in Russia, so he speaks fluent Russian. We have had an "open" type relationship for a long time, but we also go through periods where we say we don't want to date others. Something always messes it up.

He is on a Russian dating site. For some reason, I can access it. I won't say how, but I am not breaking into it. I just click on it, and I go in. Maybe he never logs out of it, I don't know.

So I check to see who is conversing with. I run it through a translator, but sometimes I can't get the gist of things.

I know it is horrible I do this, but you should hear the lies he tells me. For instance, this Russian girl he will be meeting up with.... he tells me it is a male friend.

So.... why am I still seeing this person?

Love is strange.

I don't blame you for checking up on him. I would do the same thing if I was in your situation. Maybe you just need to be honest about your feelings for him next time you meet. At least then you can have some kind of closure if he's not right for you. Because it appears that he's not telling you the truth even in an open relationship. Evil or Very Mad

It's extremely complex. I have been honest with him. I've even told him I love him. The problem is that I know we are not cut out for each other long term, so I give him a lot of mixed signals. I will tell him that one day, go out on a date with someone else the next. He does the same. I think we both know we can't make it long term, but we both can't seem to cut it off, so we kind of go back and forth.

I spy on his conversations more out of curiosity than anything. Most of them are pretty boring.
