Jetmba,
About that first visit to Kiev. I strongly feel that the agency writers were the ones who were pumping out the replies to me from their selection of women on the sight here who had no idea i was even writing to them. Either the agency was just using their photos as fodder to garnish business or when i finally announced an arrival date they contacted these women to tell them of me and these women looked at me and my letters for the first time and declined.Or , they were just stolen or borrowed photos and profiles and the girls had no idea. After all , marriage agency`s are suppose to be one of the biggest growth industries in the FSU. After i locked horns with the agency owner of Katrin Agency over this she said she will produce photos and profiles of ladies who are interested for real when i showed up. Well she did give me profile numbers to look at on my PC and man were these women ugly and homely. I mean the worst . I am not the only one this has happened to . So you see men , the prettier the more cautious you should be. You are right JET, you cant hide behind your computor at a social.
The old saying "if it looks too good to be true - it probably is"
I have seen girls in action in the internet Cafe's. 2 or 3 together gigling away to each other. Probably say, here come another sucker !!!
And TD before you have your usual jib - they were writing in English and to a man, I did a bit more of my devious – deceitful – presumptuous action !!!!!
Maxi,
Are you still in Kyiv? There is an upstairs internet cafe on top of a post office and card shop at Independance Square on the left corner if you are walking towards the Dneiper River direction on Kreshatyk . Have you sat outside the Chateau on Kreshatyk and slam beer watching the babes? There is also a good disco and casino floating on a barge on the Dneiper called the Mandarin . good time
old, our forum favorite story: never send money. do not pay agencies for letters. get real contact info. if they do not give it, forget about that lady. if you see feel like any agency does it on fiance.com report it to admin, we will close their access, support also can help you to contact those ladies if agency do not like it. there are a lot of real women there, and they are looking too, and are afraid of being used too.
Thunder - I'm not sure that we understood each other. I mentioned that 1 in 20 guys actually go to the FSU after writing. This, of course, might be comfort to the women who might be scammers, meaning that there is little chance that a guy - even sending money - is likely to actuallu show up.
Personally, I have never sent money to a girl I hadn't met and gone out with at least a few times. In total there are THREE FSU women I have ever sent money to - as I mentioned I had gone out with ALL of them. One I sent a grand total of $40 to (whooo hooo!), another - altogether $160 (over the course of six months) - the last (my fiance) I've sent a hell of a lot more than that to - but she IS my fiance.
The girl in question is 36 years old. She really is a nice enough girl and is actively looking for a husband. She is currently listed on another site. She had a German fiance and moved there to be with him, but discovered he was still seeing another woman, perhaps his ex, and was treating her child terribly. She has had an on and off relationship with an American man who visited her once. She wants to get married, but now one of her requirements is that he has alot of money, and she told me she doesn't want to have to cook or clean!
Neon,
my ex girlfriend from Kiev had the same requirements . She said it would be 50/50 to help with cooking and cleaning to me. I explained to her that i work on call 24/7 and am gone half the week and she said she would wait for me to come home while she just sat around . Needless to say her mind was poisoned because everyday of her worklife she is with American women who come to the Ukraine to adopt children. They educated her on how their wimp husbands will do more than their share at their demands and commands.
My translator is an attractive 25 yr old, very smart as she is also a professor of history at East Ukraine State University, I ve know her for about 30 months and one thing she doesnt like are girls who try to scam guys, albeit, she is married she feels this gives Ukraine girls a very bad reputation.
Jm
Yea - still in Kiev. We are heading to Lviv (Lvov) on Friday, there for 3 nights and then going to drift down towards Crimea prob via Odessa. Got 2 weeks to fill in before a 5 day visit to Moscow. Will visit the NZ Embassy there.
Will check out the "Mandarin" Have been into Independence Square a lot. They had a concert there this weekend just finished (actually it a holiday here today)
Guys: Remember that just as we (not neccessarily us, but American men in general) have preconceived false notions about what relationships between western men and FSU ladies are like (a 20 year old FSU lady is just dying to marry any 80 year old western guy to get out of her country.... etc. etc. etc.)....THEY have as many false notions.
My lady's good natured inquiry as to whether I just expected her to do all the cooking and cleaning - came after she and her mother had watched a Russian made movie on Moldovan television. It was called something like "American Bride" and it was all about American guys coming to the FSU - pretending to be rich and sophisticated, and then taking their wide-eyed-brides home to work as sex slaves, and domestic slaves.
Mommy was terrifified about this film and my fiance didn't feel much better.
THEY wonder why we have come such a long way and at such great expenxe to find a FSU bride. They know that traditionally cooking and cleaning in a FSU home was the domain of FSU women and they know that WE know that was the case as well. They are also aware that American women bawk at doing cooking and cleaning - so they figure we are going over there to get an FSU woman who will do what we can no longer GET American women to do (cooking and cleaning).
I'm guessing that mosr would be more flexible when they come to the west, especially after realizing that most western women are not quite so rigid in their demands and that MOST western women who DO demand that cooking and cleaning be split 50/50 also work time outside the house. We no longer have the concept of "housewife" here.
Thye are just taking these positions early on - I think - though I can't guarantee that.
Sorry to say, but all those comments just so pathetic. Some of them written in pure jealousy, another with regret that they can't really use those girls sexually.
Let's face it, those things are happening all over the world and especially in those countries that Western and American's men are using for their "sperm donation, I mean as a sex tourist destinations.
so you want to use, but you don't want to be used..
I am glad those girls are clever enough to use your kinky weaknesses, as their advantages.
YESS>>>> WANDER< YOU ARE 100% RIGHT. THAT B@@@@@D WANTS A WOMAN ""with a great deal of class and manners""!!!!
HE DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE TO STAND 1 mile CLOSE TO HER.
I'M MORE THAT SURE IS A MAN IS REALLY A GOOD ONE, REALLY THE MAN, ANY LADY HERE WOULD BE HAPPY TO SHARE HIS LIFE, LOVE and BED.

YOU WILL NEVER EVER HAVE A UKRAINIAN WIFE. SEARCH FOR PHILLIPINO. THIS IS YOUR LEVEL.
Monada:
each of your posts lately suggests an increasing level of desperation..........whats the matter are the fish not biting,or are you really annoyed at finding a few streetwise guys here who are not prepared to fall prey to the scammers??
Gentlemen:
it seems we have another alter-ego appearing here to substantiate Monada's pathetic attempts at justification for her grasping manner.
Lastly Monada.....whether it is the Phillipines,Ukraine,Russia,or any other country for that matter,it is the likes of women like yourself that most level headed men will do their utmost to avoid.With your attitude to life it amazes me that you have snared anyone.........you must feel proud of yourself,you portray the very worst traits in a woman.

If any of you are interested I can set you up! "

I WONDER IF AMIR KNOWS THIS GIRL???
Monada:
you choose once again to assume everyone here is still in the process of finding a partner.Has it ever occured to you that there are quite a few success stories here and our reason for being on this forum is to educate,help,support those who are still looking.
You paint a very bleak picture of Ukranian women to those who have no knowledge of the same.Thankfully there are those who can see beyond the bitterness in your words and make a level headed judgement.I meant what I said about posts from women being very welcome in this forum if only for the unique perspective that offers.Unfortunately since the posting of a lady called Ptichka a long while ago there have been very few women prepared to share knowledge and information here.
The usual routine is to stir up trouble,or generally become a disruptive influence.I suppose these words will be wasted on you Monada,as you thrive on name calling,and/or foul and abusive comments.This does nothing to endear you to this forum,which incidentally has survived a lot worse than you are capable of throwing at it.
You have found your path in life.........and unless you choose to really assess your character,walk the path.......away from here,and live your "happy" life.
Yeah, you have some issues Monada. At first I thought, ok, you have some insights. But now I think anyone can see you arent as happy as you claim. You have alot of hatred in you and I can say happiness most definitly is not in your life. You wouldn't be hanging around here nonstop if you did. You seem to live on your computer and I am wondering why a younger woman would waste time doing this..
I'm married and have a life so dont accuse me of whatever may be on your mind. I just drop in now and then when I check my mail and do some business on the net. Cheers
