Welcome to the Fiancee.com forum.
This is what you can expect. Intolerance, vulgarity, attacks over nothing and arrogance.
Welcome.
It will not change.
My feeling was that I saw your posts and just passed over them because I saw no harm and they didn't concern me.
Walk on by.
Others will not do that they enjoy attacking for no reason. It serves no purpose but still they do this. They are antagonistic people that serve no real purpose but to constantly urge on a conflict.
Now I think I shall really delete this book mark and go to other places with real information. Not that I really need that much anymore.
Trip 4 in a couple of weeks. Adios everybody especially the very nice folks who read but do not post. I have met many of you and it is nice to know that there are so many pleasant people in the world who really do want to swap information and share with each other in a civilizd manner.
Couldn't agree with you more that this forum has gone down hill very fast.
Used to be populated by guys going through predictable phases of the search for a special FSU lady. Advice and encouragement was offered by similar travelers on the same journey.
Now it seems that we have residential trolls as well as the visiting kind. And actually most of the prolific writers are not on the journey at all - but instead use this as a personal soapbox to advance whatever political phylosophy or throw whatever barbs at fellow writers, that they can muster as cowardly thugs hiding behind a keyboard.
Fewer and fewer people are legitimately asking for advice anymore and those who do are quickly discouraged as they are repeatedly slammed.
I've been to forums where ANY off topic posts are deleted. But since other people have already commented on those posts with relevent comments BEFORE deletion (as inevitably happens) the threads soon make no sense. But this forum has gotten out of hand.
Any chance someone could start a NEW forum with an appropriate title?
Could be called "Anyone Who's Ever Dated A Russian Woman, IS A Russian Woman (Or From A Formerly Occupied Country), Has A Particular Political Phylosophy Or IS Just Filled With Bile, Beat The Crap Out OF Each Other, Residential Fun House Forum".
W ecould just move this forum over there and then we could get back to the issue at hand.

I have been following this forum for months and havent added much because my journey is stalled until the begining of the new year, In the begining I heard and learned alot from people who were just farther along the line than me.
But now I just read it and shake my head , If there is a forum out there that gets back to what a lot of us really want to know email me too I would love to check it out. There just seems now to be too many personal agendas, political agendas and personal attacks of people hiding behind the anonymity of a keyboard.....I think there are a lot of people here who still want to hear what this forum started out to be ......not what it has become
"If there is a forum out there that gets back to what a lot of us really want to know email me "
Oh you want that do you???? well those forums when run by dating agencies will always filter any negative realistic feedbackkk and even try and ban IP addresses from people who have the experience... You want serious advice then listen to mine. Ive been to Ukraine yearly for over 10 years. It will end up in pain and hardship for you... You will be at most happy for a few years... You dont hear the sheer reality and aftermath of these relationships becaue the western man is too upset to share it and never wants to get involved in the debacle again... the homesickness , the fake "stereotype" russian woman who is adversited as some family orientated , non femminist , home caring , satisified unambitious woman.. Its all crap and thats what you are dealing with ....Every Russian woman I have spoken to in ukraine says the same thing "yes Im using the western man"'... In most cases she has a bf in russia or ukraine anyway and is just after a quick fix,,,, Ive seen the conditions these woman live in especially in places like Odessa where water is switched on a few hours a day ... The hygene is terrible really and life is crap...... They are still very attached to the culture they live. They dont care about western men other than a view to some salvation... All this crap that you read annoys me because it is written by naive stupid men who go to ukraine and russia looking for divorced woman with kids.. I mean geeses how stupid can you get....
I am sure there are nice genuine girls in FSU who want a family life etc. But remember the crap you will deal with as soon as she sets foot in your country... homesickness , demands etc
Shemale,
I had a failed FSU relationship some 4 years ago, I talk or refer to it when the situation calls for it thus just more bullshit coming from between your lipstick!
there you go evidence why Western men are viewed as idiots by Russian woman... What you think its a suprise you had a failed relationship??? Of course you did with an FSU female... Its the only thing that happens. And people here need to know the territory they are entering .... Your shemale remarks deflate any credibility you have... YOu and dragqueen dont like my comments because they bring up the pain of what you went through.. And what i dont want others to go through... Stupid naive men
You know if I thought that my posting was going to cause a bit of a fuss then I would of thought twice and maybe a third time.
I am glad to hear that there are still people in here who believe in the principle of the forum.
When I first wrote her last year, I was a NOOB and in between the slagging off and bitchin I did find some good bits of information that has helped me along MY path.
I thought that maybe I could re-pay, however, I was wrong.
I would of like to share my experiences with those who have stalled or were just starting out but it would seem that the moment you say anything, someone is on your back, it's a shame.
Maybe I should insert a forum into my new site, I'll think about it and see how hard it is to do.
Oh, just thought,, my last line will be classed as advertising by someone I have no doubt.
Anyway, if I do decided to do one, no-one would know about it simply because of the way SOME people are in here.
The person who wanted to know what my site was, emailed me for it, and since then has actually helped me sort out a couple of glishs, so not all bad I guess.
Shemale,
I do not regret what happened 4ish years ago, I treated it, as indeed I do life in general, as a learning experience. You've had a failed relationship and you're all bitter and twisted, me I'm smiling!
And despite the opening sentence of your post, she wasn't Russian and one day perhaps you will learn that the FSU consists of many countries and not only Russia!
I travel yearly to the FSU mate I dnt need some tired old man who dates divorced foreign woman with kids to crack jokes ...I mention Russia because in my view the riskiest girls to associate with are in Russia... best to find girls in the countryside in Ukraine away from, big cities. And russian woman are completely different to Ukrainian...
Good morning
I am new to this forum and by the looks of it,it can get pretty dicey in here. I need some help,if you would. I met this girl that I have corresponding with for several months. It seems on the up and up. No questions for money etc. that would send up any flags. I wanted to send her something in the mail,nothing really expensive etc. but I hear the mail can sometimes be a tricky thing over there. Does anyone have suggestions on how to send it from the states.
Jesse,
Do NOT send anything of value by the postman, it will never make it!
As an example, even by courier, I am trying to send a package to a friend of my lady, in Ukraine, via UPS direct from the retailer.
They say delivery within 4 days, it made it to Kiev in 2 days, arriving on 01 December, and it remains in Kiev until this day despite my best attempts to have it released.
UPS in Ukraine, and it is some soccer kit, say that the price on the outer label does not match the invoice contained within, the retailer tells me that the outer label does not contain monetary amounts and regardless, if there is a discrepancy it should be referred back to the shipper in UK. UPS Ukraine say they have written to the recipient, that is a lie, and when the recipient telephoned them they were of no useful information whatsoever. Even UPS in UK are trying to communicate with UPS in Ukraine and are getting nowhere.
Reading between the lines, and this is some Manchester United soccer kit, not for me I hasten to add, and you can't get this sort of gear in Ukraine for love or money. Someone in Kiev, either UPS or Customs, has taken a fancy to it, realised what it may be worth on the black market, and have decided to keep it for themselves.
This saga continues but be very careful what you send and how, don't even think of putting money in an envelope, as soon as the postman sees a western stamp he will either open it or put it through an x-ray machine.
Vanecka, My wife comes from the former FSU, she has strong opinions and is not afraid to speak, but she is non feminist, traditional, home loving and accepts(without bad feeling)my decisions. She had a powerful job in her country, here she hasn't worked for a year(due to pregancy and not being allowed to for 6 months), she makes no demands, has not turned materialistic, has taken what is good about my country, but left what is bad(dummed down tv, junk food, binge drinking and low morals) you have had bad experiences but you try to deter everyone with your bad experiences, I found a beautiful, feminine, loyal, supportive and traditional wife, something I would have found very difficult to find in my country. I am not deluded, she is not going to run off when she has residency, that's not why she is here. Now we may run into genuine problems in the future and who know maybe divorce, but I have no doubt her rreasons for coming here were anything other than genuine.
martin I will no longer get into slagging matches with you... You dont like the facts being stated then thats your view...... Shemale jokes are lame.. And show your lack of intellect.... What most people here like Jesse want to be told is the risk and danger misxing with ukrainian and russian woman...Not your attacks at anyone who has a negative story to tell.... And the reason so many corrupt agencies exist is because halfcasts like you have spent a fortune through them ... Now stop the boring jokes
