My English is far from perfect. But I thought it should be spelled "restaurant"
Is English your first language?

I just heard something funny on the radio this morning. There are a lot of ridiculous laws that are still on the books in a lot of states, for example, in MA against the law to put tomatos in clam chowder. The one they mentioned for Kentucky is that it's the law that a person must take a bath once a year Shocked Some of them are really humorous.

I'd be willing to bet that in order for a law like that to exist in Kentucky it must have been a problem...just wonder if it still is? Don't worry everyone...Jodie takes baths...bubble baths Wink

Hi, I'm an American woman who just began seeing a Russian man who resides in Germany. He came to stay with me in Los Angeles for two weeks and while we held hands and were close, he did not initiate sex but seemed to have genuine feelings for me. I asked to kiss him after two weeks and he complied... for hours. BUt he did not take it any further. I am confused. Are Russian men shy sexually? Do they not like when a woman initiates sex? He did not want me to ask questions about it, either.
HELP! I really like him...


Maybe your parents are divorced and you never found out what it it to care about someone, to take it slowly, to just enjoy talking, to create intimacy, to REACH to the point where you feel the culmination of your longing. In US most don't have any idea what love or frienship is, because al you want is to consume your eventual feeling before they even appear. I feel bad for this wonderful Russian guy, who wasted his time . He probably already knows you have nothing in common.
I probably sound rude, but at least I'm genuine, not phony and polished-qualities valued in US.

Anoki how old are you? Here you go again with stupid statements...you obviously know nothing of Americans and how we think. You couldn't be more wrong

Or maybe I haven't met you. Very Happy
This is my impression, I could be wrong. There are all types of people in US, but the ones I meet- age 20-35 give me this impression. You seem to consume love too fast, not giving it time to grow and mature, if interested in love at all. Sorry to offend you. I admire Americans for other qualities.

anoki - I can assure you that in Russia women and men expect sex much earlier and quicker than in the US. Both Moscow and St Petersburg are also full of strip clubs, massage salons and call girls willing to provide "full" service at a good price and they are basilly legal.
