Erdinc,Bursali, arkadaslar: does anyone know of american cell phone co that allows text messages to go thru to cell phones in turkey. Verizon doesnt seem to work either way? Does anyone have any ideas? melissa

erdinc: Thank you! I am learning turkish via this website along with other venues. I am learning it well and use it daily but I would never have the money to hire or pay someone to teach me. I understand we all have to make a living and some people may prefer a more private setting. However you are right in the fact that this teacher sounded rude and this teacher said he was patient. Didnt sound it to me. Thank you for your help in this website I use it daily. I want to come to turkey this next year and possibly work for a year in my field. Have a great weekend. Melissa

janna please be careful I think it is great that you are trying to work things out and let him know how you feel but you sound just like me right around the time my husband left. He is turkish and and a great guy but went out all the time, didnt want to stay home and such. You go girl try the best you can but just be careful ok......he may be the man of your dreams and you think everything can work out but maybe not and kudos for him if he wants to> it takes a good man to know not to lose the best thing that has ever happend to him! And obviously you love him and are in love with him deeply. I wish you well, both of you. Life is too short to lose sight of whats important. Good luck. Melissa
