The first time you’re asked for money, leave.

Don’t go to Mexico.
But the men are 6 foot tall and wealthy.
Well, my daughter does all of that yet she met her husband on a dating app.

Putin stooge! It's UKRANIAN GIRLS! /sarc>
I guess I blew my cover, huh?
Putin stooge! It’s UKRANIAN GIRLS! /sarc>

You should come to my group. You’re bound to meet someone there.
;)
