Buck, I think you should respect her privacy - if it were me, I wouldn't want my photo on the internet for a forum group to comment on.
I agree. Maybe you should ask her how she feels about it before you post anything else. My guess is that her response is not going to be positive.
It's always exciting to begin a new romance and tempting to share your excitement with others, but no woman I know would like to have her name and
physical attributes bandied about by strangers on a public board. In any event, it seems quite at odds with building an intimate relationship.

Good points all. I don't think she will ever see this board but that certainly is no reason to be disrespectful to her.
I was glad to share my little adventure but maybe I should back off a little. My little story was really less about her than me and my clumsy attempts
to try and cross a cultural barrier. But I guess now it's more about her, about us, so I suppose that kind of thing should be kept private.
I will ask if she minds me posting a photo. They are restuarant photos so about as innocent as it gets.
Thanks again to all who showed interest.

Also VERY well said and makes a very good statement about you.
Don't let the street girls (sexy kind) start hugging and kissing you. They are really just distracting you so they can reach in your pocket and get
about $40 of your beer money.
It happens quick too.
And you won't know until you order a beer and then can't find any money to pay for it. Embarrassing!
Fishbuck.... when in TJ... always (ALWAYS) carry some extra $20 bills in your shoes (inside your socks)!

With all of the global warming controversy, the fish level reports, rants on David K, the shootings and muggings,and all the other crap that finds its
way on to this board, this was like a breath of fresh air. I could relate to your being nervous, the excitement, and the mystery of the whole thing.
It was a real breath of fresh air to follow, so thank you for sharing.
