    Let me try ^^

    Have a nice weekend my darling. I miss you so much and send you all my love, Peter. I do know that my work is not good for my health and so dangerous. Therefore, I just do it for a short time to earn for my life then come back Vietnam and try another job. If you truly love me, please give me some money.

    Over!

    I have no idea what you are thinking about this kind of women.
    I do not trust them.

    Anyone who teaches me one word - even half a word - is still my teacher.
    2nd Version:
    Even he who teaches me the smallest bit can still be called my teacher

    Please correct my grammar as you see fit. Much appreciated!

    Hi - thanks very much for your reply.

    Do you think this woman is up to no good ? I would most appreciate your thoughts.

    I will also try help with your grammar: 'Anyone who teaches me one word even a half of word is still my teacher' should be: 'Anyone who teaches me one word - or even half a word - is still my teacher'. Hope this helps!

    I look forward to your reply.

    Best wishes - Peter

    I see your point. At first glance everyone will think like that, but don't forget that if one doesn't know her specific problems one should not conclude anything.

    the question was not for me however i think there is no harm to reply, you will have to be very careful going to a relationship like this. from the messages that people asked to translate on this website, i can tell some of them (not to say quite many of them) are doubtful and suspicious. it is important that you spend sometimes to reaccess the relationship and remember not to give money to people you dont know well.

    it is not my intention to say all relationship like this is bad, i have read about a man falling in love with a blind vietnamese girl who according to him has a heart of gold, the man was waiting many years for her to say yes, she on the hand was afraid of being a trouble for him.

    Default Thank you for your insights

    Hi everyone - thank you for all your insightful comments.

    My girlfriend's situation is a very difficult and complex one. She is a wonderful, caring and special girl who has just had a rough start in life.

    Once again, thanks for all your feedback and any further comments are most welcome.

    Best wishes to you all from Cape Town, South Africa Peter

    PS English is my 1st language and I also studied it further after High School. So, if any member needs help with English grammar or anything else, please send me a message and I'll do my best to help out!

    Thank you for correcting my grammar!

    I do not know how long your relationship with her has been, and how deep she is in love with you, but if it has lasted less than a period to understand each other very well, she should not ask you for money.
    Money diggers always have nice words to persuade people.

    I just do not like women who have not marry but asking their boy friends for money; especially, this woman is Vietnamese.
