A Foreign Affair Dating
A Foreign Affair Foreign Women Seeking American Men. Dating can be a difficult thing for a lot of guys. Sometimes, a man can try and try again and never make any kind of progress when it comes to his love life. It can sometimes seem like the universe is doing its level best to make sure that some people remain alone and never find any kind of. A Foreign Affair offers Individual Introduction Services for specific cities in Ukraine, Latin America or Asia. These cities offer great travel destinations and an amazing selection of women, ranging for the classic girl next door to the women that qualify for world-class model status.
I've decided to make this new topic because over the last few days, i informed a person on this site to check me out on the May 2009 tours photos as proof that i was there and how unhappy i was because i realized it was a waste of money. The man asked me where was my photo, as nothing on the May 2009 tours photos could be found. I checked myself and sure enough, the whole May 2009 tour has been removed on purpose.To see this one and only tour removed by AFA after i had been talking about it just a few days before, shows to the honest and unsuspecting male clients that AFA is covering a mess up that it doesn't want you to see.
I think AFA are covering more up then what has been discussed on here.;))
I always thought after the first time i used AFA there was something very wrong with the company and what it claims to deliver for It's paying male customers. Without you people, AFA would be nothing but it seems AFA will protect It's reputation, It's dishonest agency people and the dishonest women who are enticed to join up and order to make a dollar, NO MATTER WHAT.

A Foreign Affair Dating Service Scam
What I'm saying by failing to deliver is all the good promises it makes to you, the paying male client, that it is IMBRA compliant, It is US based, It has several offices located in many FSU cities, etc, etc and the fairy tale list goes on and on. All of AFA's promises don't mean a thing if hookers are allowed to enter the invitation-only-socials. If there are women in attendance only because a friend of theirs is at the social and last, if a former male customer cannot place he's personal experiences on a forum, only for these to be removed, then what is really the problem with AFA that it doesn't want you people to read about and make up your own mind on.For a international dating agency to intentionally remove a tour from It's recent tours photos, then there is something very embarrassing on there that It's trying to hide.
I understand Fiance.com removing the new topic between jetmba and myself BUT i think through all of this, something has been reviled. I hope this goes through and if it does, i will leave the forum, as i think I've made my point of view been heard. :))))))))))))

A Foreign Affair (AFA) is an international dating and marriage agency that promotes romance tours for American men to meet women in Latin America, Southeast Asia, China, Russia, and other CIS countries.[1] The company has over 25 years of experience in the industry and over 30,000 registered women profiles.[2]
AFA founders testified at court hearings in Washington when Senator Cantwell first pushed for the implementation of the 2005 International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA), which, along with the 1994 Violence Against Women Act, is designed to protect women from potential abuse.[3] Officially, the company is an international marriage agency/broker under IMBRA.
Critical reception[edit]
A feature on ABC's Nightline covered an AFA meetup in Odessa, Ukraine and found that while many of the women who attended the meetup were genuinely interested in finding an ideal match with an American man, others seemed to be taking advantage of the men by attempting to convince them to buy expensive gifts.[4] In the segment, owner John Adams does not dispute the fact that some men may fall victim to scamming, though he says that such instances are rare.
A BBC reporter also attended a meetup in Ukraine and interviewed several attendees, finding that many of the men attended because they were frustrated about the prospects of finding an ideal match in the US, while many women attended in search of a partner who was responsible and could provide them with a better life.[5]
A 2011 The Today Show segment featured AFA and one of its founders in light of the mail-order bride industry's success after the 2008 recession. The segment explored some common negative perceptions about the mail-order bride industry, along with concerns that relationships precipitated by websites like AFA might not be completely equal; for instance, the host was concerned that women might be pushed into such relationships due to socioeconomic factors out of their control.[6]
AFA was also featured in a National Geographic documentary called Bachelors Abroad,[7] a feature documentary called Love Me,[8]Our America with Lisa Ling,[9] and an episode of MTV'sSex 2K,[10] all of which raised serious questions about the legitimacy of many of the women involved.
