We finally tied the knot on 14th May 2010

Well finally after volcano's and various document problems we finally tied the knot on 14th May 2010 i feel very fortunate to have found such a wonderful young woman and any man looking on this site who is genuine and is serious about a russian,ukrainian eastern wife should remain positive that its not an unachievable dream to find a real ,genuine relationship through the internet.

It exists but a word of advice ,the fears you have ,we all do ,will hold you back and my personal experience is that russian women are very perseptive about your openess so if you do really seek that special woman make the trip and when you do get that feeling inside be prepared to be open and express what you feel and think and be open about it. There are no guarantees in life but if you do not take the risk you might miss out on the best chance for real happiness .

We are waiting now for the settlement visa ,we went to the uk visa centre in kiev together before i returned to the Uk so fingers crossed all will go well.

If anyone wants advice on my expereince's feel free to ask i will be happy to help anyone find what i have found.

Good luck

"Atta Boy" Thumper!!! Congats and Good Luck!!

Congratulations! How about a picture!

Can you post them in the forum ?? i will have a go

Thumper...

Set up a free account at "Photobucket": http://www.photobucket.com and upload your photo there.

Then, on the Photobucket site, click on your uploaded image, the page will change and look on bottom left of the new page for the uploaded photo's "direct link" address and copy :

Come back to LP and write a new message, just above the text box click Img (for image) and paste the "direct link" address between the two sets of img brackets: [img]PHOTO.ADDRESS.HERE.COM[/img]

The LP site will automatically find your image at Photo bucket and show it here in your post.

I am including an image of our local court house.



It is really much easier than you may imagine. Photobucket is simply a free photo storage site to use just for this purpose.

Uploading photos in this forum is a lot easier. You don't have to upload them to photo sharing websites. Some of these websites disappear from time to time and forum posts may have messages with missing images.

Please add your pictures/photos as follows:

While posting a message locate "Upload attachment".
1. Filename - Click browse to select a photo/picture on your computer. Try not to use very large photos because they will take a longer time to upload for you and other members.
2. File comment - you can add a short summary/description to your photo e.g. "Olga and I went hunting".
3. Click "Add the file" - after the file is uploaded it will be displayed in "Posted attachments".
4. Click "Submit" to post your message.

Sincerely yours,

Lovers Planet

Man.. How did I miss that? I guess I am so used to using code that I was blind to the obvious!!

thumper I am so glad about your happy love-story.
Your are together - so beautiful couple. Wish you long nice life which would be more full now when the lovely person is near.

I congratulate you with such event in your life and wish your wife to get visa as soon as possible. Maybe some day we will meet in UK everybody from this site with success story. It's so nice to read that somebody else have found second half on this site.
Be happy!!!!!!!

You are a beautiful couple, treat each other well! I look forward to the day I will take my picture and post it here.

Beautiful couple!!!
Congratulations from all female half of our site and a wish of happiness!

I saw the pics and read your ladies comments in the ladies forum. Congratulations.

I am sure the ladies blood pressure jumps up about 10 points when they get hotlisted by someone who looks interesting to them. Then they wait for an email, which sometimes never arrives.

hi thumper, we heard your good news!!!!!!! how does your wife like sunny donny? I was born in Doncaster and went to Hunger Hill school. My family still live there in Kirk Sandall. My wife also has visa, we should meet up in Donny some time
