«Hello Sveta
How are you?
I am preparing to travel to China zaftra. I am getting excited because I have never visited China before.
I'm told it is really cold in Ufa now. It has been snowing here last week, but now it is a bit warmer (+6) but it will rain heavily zaftra.»>
Me:
rain??? Oh no! We're not gonna see rain for at least 2 weeks
> Oh yeah i remember you mentioned that you were going to China. I'm very glad to hear that))
> That's really nice.
> Me? I'm ok. Thinking of giving up my university
Steve:
Hi Sveta
>
> Why would you give up at University - you don't have long to go?
Me:
i know but you see I want to go to NY as soon as possible and because of my studies i can go only 1 July
-- I understand your desire to return to NY, but you have the rest of your life in front of you - you should definitely be patient and complete your University course. Trust me, it will be worth it in the long term.
I sound like an old man!
Me:
I think you are right and I'm very thankful to you for this advice.
Maybe after you said that I'm plucky I have a strong desire to do something brave but in fact it turns out to be something stupid
-- I would never say you were stupid, but often when you want something too much it can cloud your judgement. It is better to seek opinions from people who don't have a vested interest. I can give you impartial advice. I am also practiced in seeing a bigger picture, so ask me any questions any time and I will try to help.
-- i would really like to ask you one question about my life but i don't know if i should take more of your time
-- Ask away - you have my ear!
-- i would also want to know if you think we are friends as my question is really personal
-- We got on well on the two days we worked together and have been in touch since, so in this context, I would say we are friends. I can give you my assurance that anything you say I will treat in confidence. If I feel I can't answer, then I will say so. Is that good enough?
-- perfect!
Ok so the thing is I'm in love with somebody who is really older than me
-- So what advice do you want?
-- i don't even know... Your opinion.. What do you think about it. Maybe it's just crazy. But I really don't want you to think of it as of a crush on a teacher. Becuase it's not like that
difficult to reply anything?
-- Sorry, I was away from my computer. Does he know your feelings? How does he feel about you?
-- he knows. He says that he loves me but he is worried about the stupid age difference. Now you understand why I was sad when you told me I look young
-- I understand. I have two thoughts. Firstly, he may think you will quickly become tired of him, and it is a worry for the future - and how would you feel when you are 35-40 and he is an old man. Secondly, I do think you are young for your age (young thinking) - not a criticism, an observation, and this may be an issue.
-- well I was thinking about all these... I came to a conclution that i want to enjoy what i have now... I don't know what is going to happen in future. Now I feel good with him and I just don't want to put an end to our relationship because of the age. It's too difficult for me
-- So how does this work in relation to NY - does he live there?
That explains everything! You should use your time in Ufa to finish your education and to test your relationship. True love will wait.
Take care
Steve

03.03.2010 в 22:18а почему эта сторона его так беспокоит?... он что переживает, как у вас все будет через 30 лет?
хотя мужчины - странный народ... какая разница, сколько лет женщине?! главное, что больше 18-ти
p.s. какое такое спасибо?! не люблю это слово
а по поводу английского - а куда ж без него родимого сейчас
