I have another friend who is dating a girl from Russia. He's seen her once, a week-long vacation in February, since August. She tells him she's pregnant with his kid and he tells us he's not going to get a blood test. After we explained that she lives 10,000 miles away and lives a totally separate life away from him. Also after we explained that he's cheated on her twice and even if he trusts her, it's logical that she has also. He still says he's going to take care of the kid without a blood test

your "friend" is an idiot.  does he still believe in the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus also??  how in the hell can someone be "dating" a girl that he's only met once and lives in Russia?  the whole things smells like a green card scam to me. 

hopefully someone hits his head with a rock and see if that brings back his senses..

"Anchors" away, and throw in some "free", TB therapy for Momma as well...
Christ in a Mopbucket, "idiot" is too kind a term for this asinine level of cerebellar malfunction.  No green card required.

Adam -

While previous post is flippant, I have a buddy who almost got sucked into a Russian scam that sounds eerily similar, two years ago.  Great looking 23 yr old woman, concert pianist, working toward PhD in biochem in Minsk - they met and had a great time in Moscow, and continued communication over email.  Three months later, he's informed she's expecting - by a broker, and that for $2,000 he could fly her into the US and they marry.  After five months, the broker pays my friend $5,000 to have marriage annulled, but she gains citizenship via matrimony and baby being born on US soil... and my bud might have been hung out to dry in a fraud case.  Yeah, he's another DC grad and should know better, but at 56...

are women from Defiance THAT bad....so these guys need to head to Russia. 

Talk about losing faith in women..

yes they are that bad...lets not forget the most profitable Mob in the world is the Russian Mob.

She lived here during the summer (about 2-3 months) through a program at her college in Russia so he's "been" with her an extended period of time before visiting in February. How you fall madly in love with a chick after 2-3 months is beyond me, but that's what he claims. She went back to Russia in August and February was the last time he saw her.

We tried to tell him, but he don't think its right to ask the girl, he claims to love, for a blood test. What bothers me about all this is she neglected to tell him until she had been pregnant for a little over 2 months. The other crazy part of this, is he admits he didn't wear any protection because he thought she was on birth control...either that's what she told him or she was on it during the summer while they were together and took herself off of it while they were apart and never started taking it again, even though she knew since November he was visiting her in February.

He now wants to bring her back and marry her. They spent June, July, and August together plus the one week in February and he claims he knows her because they talk on the phone every day and their marriage would work. And he wants to be a responsible father, though being a responsible human in my opinion would be getting a blood test first. To be honest, I think he's too far in to get out emotionally. We've been telling him since she left in August that he needed to end everything at that point cause the situation didn't lend itself to a positive outcome.

My dad had a friend who married a girl from Venezuala...who in turn divorced him 2 years after marriage when she had everything she wanted plus his half as a bonus.

First of all it is possible to fall in love w/ a person after a few months of being w/ them, but that doesn't mean you have to marry them right away b/c of a pregnancy.  To many times he hear about people getting married b/c of a child.  I just do not understand the theory behind it. 
I admire the fact he wants to be a responsible father, but I agree that the responsible thing would be to have a blood test first.  If results show the child is his then he can take care of the child.  Also, if she comes over to the states she should be able to take care of herself (w/ his assistance towards the child).  Oh & lets not forget a prenup if they do get married.

[SaintsFAN]

correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have to wait until after the child is born to have a paternity test taken? 

This would lend itself as a plus for the scammer in this situation. 

[cave2bens]

...don't you have to wait until after the child is born to have a paternity test taken?   

No.  Fluids collected from Chorionic Villi Sample or Amniocentoesis in prenatals contain the genetic combinants required to match with the presumptive father.

[dc_has_been]

But cann't that be dangerous for the mother & the fetus?

Wow....this board not only covers football, but lifeskills too!

[Adam Sayer]

I'm just concerned about him. I think he's making a poor decision and it's frustrating to me because he isn't listening to a voice of reason. I'm not the only one either. His father and another friend have all said the same thing. "Make sure it's your kid." We'll see if he gets enlightened and actually listens to us. I'm not normally the voice of reason, but in this case...

Kevin you can test before the kid is actually born as Bob stated, but due to the situation, I think that's almost an impossible scenario unless she visits here. Though I've been told her parents are wealthy (in Russian terms) I don't see that happening. I think any paternal tests that are to be done will have to wait until she has the kid.

We can move on to other news...to quote the Coors Light commercials, "I needed to vent."

[SaintsFAN]

yeah...onto other news. 

TMC is having their golf outing later this month.  If any of you ex MSJ guys want to play and support your old coaches...send me a PM. 

I have been told the Saints are bringing in an oustanding freshman class...though, as each of you know....is all hearsay until the school starts recieving deposits. 

I'm going to drink the kool-aid though.  Lots of close games included in our losses last year.  I think we're going to see alot of improvement on the field in 2008.  Plus, Stellman is back at QB.  its still a three year plan, but I think the Saints are ahead of schedule.

[Adam Sayer]

We all knew it would be a matter of time before TMC started reaping the benefits of having a "local" in charge of recruiting. MSJ's golf outing is comming up. I got an email with a picture that said "More information to come." I'm not very good, otherwise I'd join you in a 4some Kevin  I'll be working on the golf game this summer and maybe I'll be able to keep the Drive straight.

Particularly a candidate that sees beyond the myopic vision of "social engagement," statistical spin, and internet dalliance    The "yellow jacket nest" has been buzzing for several weeks... in his defense, he was fond of our Scot's Whisky and cigar stashes  
It will be interesting...

[70_dc_alum]

buzzing is a good way to put it...was a pretty weak press release that anyone with any business sense can read between the lines on.  if you were brought in to raise money and the only thing you have to your credit after 6 years is the smart fitness center which was donated by one person and is owned by the YMCA you deserve to be taken out to the woodshed.  at least there are lots of pretty pictures of the rec center
