Ten Commandments

1.Never send money to someone you have never met.
2.Always have a back-up plan
3.Work to eliminate any agency from your communications.
4.Always get the lady's home address and home phone number as early
as possible.
5.Verify the ladies you are writing to are real.
6.Do not fall in love with photos!!
7.Always be yourself. Show the ladies the real you. Be truthful.
Use current photos.
8.Do not rush into this! Take your time and be methodical, not
impulsive, about this process.
9.Treat international dating the same as dating someone from your
home country. The biggest difference is the cost (travel, phone. etc).
This is an expensive process. Don't believe anyone that tells you
otherwise.
10.THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A MAIL-ORDER BRIDE! They do not exist.
