hi
What would you say is the average age of men who look for russian women? are they in their 20's, 30's, 40's or 50's?
Do you guys feel that if a person is in their 20's that they are too young to be looking for FSU women?
any opinions?
When I was doing my search four years ago, I checked some of the men's galleries to size up my competition. You can do the same to get an idea. It's pretty bleak however in terms of looks and age. I'd say Americans average about 45+ (with a 15 year spread), Euros probably average about 40 with the same spread. Looks are average at the very best. Americans uglier than Euros (I mean the ones who posted profiles on galleries - not in general). Many Americans view this sort of dating as the last resort mainly because of the distance. Euros view it also as a choice, they can date, don't have to marry, it's easier to get visa for the lady, so even younger and a bit more attractive men are enticed to look to the east.
20's? why not? what's wrong with twenties? the question is are you certain you want to get married now? are you ready for this now? and can you convince a woman that you are eligible to marry?
usserrock, i'm 24 and i'm doing it, and with great success. most of the women i've talked to have said that they want a man thats their age. so good hunting. and i know i'm ready to get married, i asked the same question as you when i first started this search and most everyone told me to wait. why do i want to wait, so i can be 35 and looking for a 20 year old wife.
usserrock, ohh yes i've tried to find women here. i have no problem finding women in my country. acually the only reason i started to do this was after a long relationship of mine ended a friend of mine intrduced me to his wife, which she is from russia and she convinced me to give it a try. plus i've always been interested in the FSU because my great, great grandparents are from there somewhere. and now what started out as a rebound from an ex is probably one of the best choices i've ever made. i don't even look for women here anymore. so how old are you anyways, i'm guessing 23 or 24?
polockinpa is right, most FSU would like younger men who have the experience and financial flexibility of older men.
Just have in mind though, this is not like dating an American girl. It will be very expensive process, time consuming, and nerve racking at times when you'll wait many months for the visa. Therefore, this is not the sort of dating where you date someone generally and if things work out you may decide to tie the knot. This is the sort of dating where you take the decision to marry up front and then search for the bride.
Its nice to see you guys must have your acts together. I was partying and having a blast until I was well into my thirties. When I was your guys age all I knew I wanted was women, women and more women, lol. Hey wait a minute, nothings changed about that except the fact now I have one woman who has all my attention. Personally I think you guys are way to young to settle down but you know what, everyones different and to each his own. Good luck guys. BTW, Im 38 and my princess is 27. 11 years isnt too bad considering my ex here in the states was a 12 year difference and the one before that was 8 years younger.
yep. i think it is important to know early in life what you want. I'm 23 and right now, i'm starting a relationship with a 19 year old girl. so, it's not a big difference in age, which can be a good thing. The women may feel more more comfortable with men who are they age.
skiired, i know what you mean about all you want is women, trust me i've had my fair share of women and now i feel i'm done with having a different women every night of the week. i've gave it great thought and i know i'm ready to settle down and i don't think i'm too young.
wtrav02 I know how much of an expensive process this can be, but the way i see it, i would spend just as much taking women out here in the U S, so why not spend the money and get what i feel is a better women!
the answer to the originall question:
don't know about the usa, but in the Uk the age of guys is 45-55 (baby boomers!)
In FSU countries baby boomers girls are about 25 y/o/ (it's 1980-1985)
So that's why ladies who are 20-25 y o often settle down with the guys much older (there are plenty of them, + it is very common to marry more experienced man who will take care of the girl)
I am an older guy (50) and tired of the games and materialistic women here in the USA. I like the Russian and Ukrainian women's accents, too. I have heard that the women from there are more committed and faithful to their spouses. True or not I find it a new adventure in life anyway. I am not necessarily looking for a woman in her 20's or 30's, but if that is who I end up with, so be it. I am looking for someone with whom there is a mutual attraction and similarity of likes, dislikes and goals in life. Not necessarily an identical. Did I come to the right place?
I am 20. You may think that is quite young but there are certain reasons in here.
a) I have been using personal sites locally, only to come across brick walls in that regard. This place isn't so bad.
b) The girls in my circle of acquaintances are either not wanting to have any form of commitment - if they are, they are particularily religious. There is also a large number of the non-religious acquaintances consume drugs in varying quantities. I'm not for that. I am strictly anti-drug - I cannot love a women who would put themselves through that.
c) I have personally dated a Russian girl in high school - which was more than three years ago. Of course, nothing transpired from it but I am willing to give it another whirl.
d) As I stated, a lot of my girl acquaintances and people I'd like to chose use drugs. I like electronic music and it is my understanding that electronic music is quite big in Eastern Europe, as if it were their answer to rap and hiphop. Alas, in this city, a large part of the electronic scene which is pretty much stuck in rave mode and many people use drugs in the scene. I am only hoping that I can find a women who doesn't use drugs and also likes that music. Of course I could go to Amsterdam, Munich and London, but really I am not all that interested in the women there. Call me picky.
I say (and write) facts I am 100% sure . I've read the article in the newspaper about year ago. If I will find it again (my husband keeps it somewhere for sure) I will let you know.
If nature consistantly throws 106 males for every 100 females and "20-25yr old FSU women
often settle down with much older men," It would seem there must be a lot of 20-30yr old FSU men missing out. Is this true?
I would assume quite a few young men have emigrated themselves working in the stronger markets of abroad. If 1000 Russian women successfully marry themselves out of FSU, do you think that there are less than 1000 men who have not emigrated elsewhere?
You wouldnt be far wrong. It must be the pits for the average Russian guy on 300-400 a month trying to date a woman. The exodus of Russian guys emigrating abroard, working illegally or whatever, must be huge.
I do wonder what the Russian guys think of Westerners going over there and stealing their women.
I assume the guys are thinking of them more as sisters than as mates since there is probably a pool of women fr them to get at in their host coutnry too!
