In 1987 they asked for an invitation, just to see [the country she was living in]. In the 1990's they suggested doing business together. In 2000's they asked for advice in buying real estate and opening bank accounts. In 2010's they sent photos from 5-star resorts. In 2014 they told me to go #### myself because of my position on Crimea. Now they are calling me a Bandera kike because of my position on Ukraine.
The circle has closed.

Now I am expecting them to ask for jeans again."
This one, in particular, is very reminiscent.
