I returned yesterday from 11 days in Belarus and Russia. I had a wonderful time and enjoyed the country, people and environment. The trip was expensive but a valued education.
I am not a "kiss and tell" person but I will say my relationship with my girl is over and I begin my search anew. I am now more committed than ever to find my love in FSU.
I welcome questions and comments; I will attempt to answer everyone.
Simply stated, my girl and I were to different. I want a close intimate relationship with hugs and kisses and this was not her desire.
Nevertheless, I had a wonderful time and will return soon.
Thanks, not a big problem, the educational value far exceeds the cost spent. I am looking for another with renewed confidence. Seriously, I just dated the most beautiful woman of my dreams, how could I be anything but pleased and encouraged. Sure, I am heartbroken but I am back on the horse!
It is sad that you didn't find luck at your first try, but how often are we actually that lucky in life? It pleases me to read that you are that positive in your further search for happiness. With that attitude I am sure you will find what you are looking for.
Call me jelaous, nasty or what ever. But why in earth so many people think in that board that when woman is russian/ukrainian, thin and beautful-its automatically guarantee happy family life!!!!! Most important what is her character, personality, her dreams, nobody dont care really! Does mr. Cast know or care why she didnt liked him?
Annika, I appreciate you opinion; actually she liked me very much. It was me that ended our relationship. I want a woman that desires more hugs and kisses. I spend 5 months exchanging letters about our character, personality, dreams-I cared very much. We knew each other very well over the internet but we needed this week together to determine if our personal needs were going to be met.
Yes, she was thin and beautiful and I had money and stability to offer-nothing guarantees happy family life other than joint committment to a marriage: this we did not share.
I dont know...if woman likes man she want kiss him and so on!!! Or she didnt liked you as a man or she had some sort of emotional problems from the past??????
I not so well know mentality of western people, but I well know mentality of Russian girls. The decent girl who was going to have with you serious attitudes needs time. It needs to get used to you real. In fact you knew each other only virtually. She loved the virtual person, instead of you personally. And for the Russian girl it would be strange, at once to rush to you on a neck. If she is upbringing well up, she will constrain the emotions.
On the contrary. If you had many kisses in the first day of arrival is, at least, it would be strange. I would run from such girl. Means - she is not serious. Yes, she can marry for you . But it is necessary to think, that is necessary for her. You personally, either your country or your money.
Dear castawaysailor, embrace and kisses do not guarantee that this person of you likes.
Harridan, with all due respect, this was not our first meeting. If a woman verbally expresses love, agrees to marriage, I would expect some emotion. If I am wrong, then so be it.
This was not just an internet relationship. I have been financially supporting her, exchanging letters and photos, telephone calls, planning our future, etc. I did not expect her to express wild passion the first day, but maybe by day 8-I would think some emotion would be forthcoming-especially on a vacation of daily parties, etc.
I know guys, Cast simply didn't like the terrible fog we had in Belarus on his departure day and he decided to look for a girl in Russia(prefferably sochi region) which is know for quite better weather than we have here!:-)
Seriously, that was the right step and now I see the right attitude. Keep on going, Cast!
Hello Castawaysailor...sorry things didn't work out. Perhaps, when you have some time, you can tell us a little bit about your adventure. Sochi, always seemed like a cool place to visit (the Russian Riviera) - sea and mountains etc. And, of course, the "other" women! LOL!
Castaway
I think you've made the right decision.
If a holiday in Sochi doesnt bring out her romantic side, I dont know what would.
You sound like one of the good guys. There are plenty of women out there lookingt for a good guy, so I dont think you will have any trouble finding what you are looking for.
Best of luck
I dont agree that russian girls need time, they are very temperament and show their feelings of course IF they like he man. If somebody is good, decent, rich what ever guy it doesnt mean its reason for chemistry! If romantic vacation dont bring feelings out (as Adman mentioned) what will bring then????
Other point is : yes she might agree to marry and take the money, but is she ready to actually move to USA? Im not for excample and thats why I looked in Europe. I think its psychologically very hard decision.
get a life and get a local girl from your country..join a dating agency in your country for local girls and stop this Russian internet b.s/MOB crap...leave the Russian girls for the Russian men...inter-cultural marriages don't work and your throwing your money into the wind like piss down the toilet..it will get you no where..there are plenty of local girls in your country..you just got to look and you wont find find them at night clubs/discos ( only the whores and gold diggers go there or the one night shags )
Vote 1 for Vanechka..I think he is great and says it all and tells it how it is..why can't some of you people ( men ) see the light in here and what you are doing chasing Russian/FSU girls is plain stupid and the only hting that will come from it is an empty wallet and a broken heart!
