i was just wondering if anyone has had sucsess with thier russian or ukrainian wifes? in almost all the threads i have read i hear of all these horror stories but very few happy ones. just wondering if anyone is happy.
in answer to your question,YES most definitely successful,and I'm not alone either read some of the threads,plenty of success stories,just seem to get buried among the doom and gloom sometimes.
Careful planning is the key.....take a note from,Trad,nasfan6,jetmba,Martin,TimH,crash,wmferg,and many others who have my apologies for omitting them.
Advise caution..don't rush into this..take time and pick the right girl or it will end in disaster aand your life will be ruined...applies to women of all nationalities!
Do you want a hot babe? Forget it Russian hot babes will not stay in your country
But if you want some average woman maybe she will stay
But why would i travel to russia for an average woman
Answer= Forget russian woman its bad news. Ive never married one and nevewr will . What I see and hear In ukraine when im there for bsuiness yearly sends shivers up my spine. They are all devious interested in nothing but opoortunities .. You the western man is irrelevant. The cultures are too different. She wont stay .. You will remember my words
You just don't get it. All you can think about is "hot babes". Are you so shallow??? Do you think that is the main reason western men are looking to FSU for women to marry? To find a hot babe??
I can see it is a waste of time to explain to you why many of us look there for a woman.
Forget the Russian women, they are only after your money or a passport, I have known too many men who were married to these women only for it to end in divorce, now I would not take the chance. Look to the East guys, Thailand, Vietnam, The Philippines, and China, there are some beautiful women in those places, believe me, honest, loyal and lovable to their men. Forget the russian scammers.
You know I know a tremendous number of men who married women right from my general area that ended in divorce. I suppose according to the above post you should not consider an American woman. I was married to a woman from the Philippines that ended in divorce, so I suppose the Philippines are out also. actually after thinking about it I think every country that I am aware of has marriages that end in divorce...so if you wish to follow the generalizations in the above posts then marriage is not an option.
Actually I might take advice here on good restaurants, customs information, where a good nightclub might be found...etc, you get the idea. I seriously doubt that I would take interpersonal relationship advice from anyone here.
Find me one successful person that ever listened to the people that told them they couldn't do it and I'll show you millions that failed because they never started.
It's been a long time since I've been here on the internet...Know this...it can be very successful...as long as you can dedicate the time and money. It's takes a more time as my fiancé is finishing her master's degree right now.
I corresponded with the same girl for about a year and a half. There is so much someone should look at when deciding to marry. I'm an NLP professional and used to do couple therapy. There are a lot of things to consider when making such an obviously big decision. Look at the cultural and language differences alone, plus not to mention the fact that most of us are "GEOGRAPHICALLY CHALLENGED"!!! I personally am studying Russian to eventually…… fluency! Any outstanding relationship deserves a great deal of work. I would recommend these books if any of you are interested..."Falling In Love for All The Right Reasons by: Dr. Neil Clark Warren; "Men are From Mars Women are From Venus" by Dr. John Gray...and for somebody a little more analytical "Conjoint Family Therapy" by Virginia Satir. So many people choose the wrong mate for the wrong reasons and are unsatisfied to some extent in their relationships whether “foreign or domestic”. The same applies for the Ukrainian/Russian woman too!
And I've seen some other men in Ukraine (there for similar reasons as I) going out with the most beautiful women in the world!!! I think there are some women there who don't consider the appearance as much as other factors but it’s probably the same in the U.S.! So we can’t rationalize that!
No doubt my girl is absolutely gorgeous and she's my age but I workout everyday and (I'm fairly modest about my appearance) but I'm a good looking guy! I’ve decided in my life that I will never be fat again (like I used to be and boy was I!!!!) I see some of these guys with these girls (20+ age difference; 150 lbs + weight difference) Come ON!!! I can sense the real feeling these girls have!!! And I've talked to a lot of these women in Ukraine about just this fact. Confidence, self-image, self-esteem, ego, determination, dependability...these are many times congruent with the person’s habits and appearance. A woman that exercises everyday and eats right might have some relationship snag with someone who doesn't. So we have to be realistic in our true expectations and purpose.
And Ditto says it best...like Les Brown once said, "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars."
IGNORE the cynics and naysayers!!! (ie: Vanechka)
Literally ignore them, don't answer them, don't even read their threads!!!
Mark Twain said, "Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
Don``t send woman money to air-ticket. Buy self air-ticket and send this some a E-ticket to a mail address some you can create for she. If she not have money to visit Internet cafe for at get this E-ticket, send she little money to a Western Union bank in she`s area.
But almost all woman some look after men in the Internet have private-email address or home telephone.
Yes I have had sucess, but not from Fiance webcontact, but from a free contact website. I find me here a wonderful lady from Russia some will come to me in Norway to summer.
