Perhaps a bit of a personal question, but did you see Anna again?
Would be interesting to hear a follow-up to the story, as in Dead Bat.

Man, the pro-Ukraine (and anti-Russia) propaganda in Kiev continues onward here. Today I saw two big posters in Maiden comparing Putin to Hitler and Stalin (!). Another one had a big sign saying "No to Russian Fascism." Geez guys - really?

In my eyes Putler is just as bad as Hitler ever was, and potentially more dangerous because he has nukes.

Comparing Putin to Hitler or Stalin is utterly ridiculous. There is no comparison. Hillary Clinton was totally out of line when she said it. Hitler and Stalin were directly responsible for the deaths of millions upon millions.
Crimea was part of Russia for almost 300 years before the Soviets 'gave' it to Ukraine for around the last 60 years or so. 75%+ of the population

do you really think that the situation would have been any different in Crimea had is stayed part of Ukraine.

Not a single shot was fired in Crimea, how can you compare that to Hitler who was responsible for the deaths of millions?

All this was of course supported and encouraged by USA, after all they have a long history of supporting and arming terrorists, Mujahideen, KLA, Iraq, Afhganistan....the list goes on

Gotta say that day game can be pretty confusing sometimes. 4 of my recent approaches that were with high 7s and 8s I thought went rather well, got good rapport and interest, etc. Then they ended up going nowhere. Thought at least 1 out of those 4 would pan out and I won't lie; it's disappointing to feel like I read it all wrong and to lose out on high quality women like that. In night game in Moscow I'd say generally if you get a number then 7 out of 10 times you at least get another bite at the apple via a meet up.
Am just going to push more daytime action here, work on my game and just keep on truckin'.

I am in total couple of months here, my phone is loaded with phone numbers of 6-8 and even some 9s and many were after good rapport but alas maybe got 20% of them reach for a date, 10% for 2nd date.
Where do you day game? PM me maybe we can team up.

I'd say the 50% figure is pretty accurate accoring to my experience. However, I'm having more luck with the non-English speakers so far. My one bang + one close call were both with non-English speakers. Kind of interesting.
Last couple of days I was getting pretty mad at how it's worked out (or not really worked out) here for me so far, even thinking of moving on somewhere else, so yesterday I decided to drop down 1 full notch when approaching (to the 6-7 level down from the 7-9 level high end girls I had been approaching).
I just felt like I was doing a shit ton of work and even though I thought I was getting some interest and a lot of numbers basically none of the higher level girls have panned out - just one really. Plus had 3 blow outs day gaming 8s+ on Sunday. Maybe bc it's later summer and people are away a lot and out of town on weekends etc. + night game has not been so good here, but in the end it doesn't matter what the reasons are. The higher end girls here are simply not easy and seem colder/harder to read than the ones I was dating for years in Russia. Even the 7.5 'steady' girl I'm with has started giving me an attitude and had a mini-breakdown the other day telling me how some guy broke her heart and how she really hates men now. Wonderful.
Anyway, went out with my new target demographic in mind yesterday and did 4 approaches yesterday and got 3 numbers - let's say they were all between 6.25-6.5. These girls all seemed very interested in talking to a foreigner and getting my views on Ukraine, and it was a pleasure to chat with all of them - no attitudes. We'll see what happens but will follow this strategy for the next couple of weeks and see if my results improve. Somethings gotta give that's for sure.
