If you read English I was not complaining about my past. I was writing HOW HAPPY I am and about my adaptation. And anyway, what are you doing surfing this website? Are you trying to find a foreign man secret charm? I really don’t want to start a cat fight with you with people from all over the world watching. But you definitely made my blood boiling. And I wonder WHY SO MANY HAPPY UKRAINIAN WOMEN are looking for a man outside Ukraine? Have you ever thought of it?
I'm not shouting at you, I was just so startled with your words. I never shout at people.
A friend of mine told me that there can be something interesting to see.
I have never though about finding a foreign husband, and I don't want to find a one.
I'm not sure how many Ukrainian women search for a man outside of the country, I never tried to find that out. But I know that many of my friends, are very happy with their boyfriends and husbands. I just wanted to tell you that it's not so good to generalize. There may be bad men, but there are good as well...what I tried to tell is that you can judge all men by one metric. Maybe I'm too emotial, sorry for that, but that's my temper:)
Hi Ptichka- Just wanted to say that your input is greatly appreciated as there is not better way to learn a woman's perspective on things than straight from a woman herself. I don't think that most people tend to catagorize men or women. I'm sure there are alot of good men in Ukraine and to say all are lazy or drunks and so on, is blown way out of proportion. I won't bad-mouth the women from my country either.(U.S.) There are good women here also but the decent ones are few and far between. That's why I'm here.
Thank you a lot for your kind words!!!:) I agree with you that it's not good to generalize and catagorize people, but a lot of people try to do that. I'm not sure how it is in other countries, but here I came across such a thing.
Especially when it is that girls should care about the house, and can't have their own interests beside it....I think it's crazy, don't you think so?:)
One of my friends got married with an American, and she tells me how it is life there with the eyes of a Ukrainian girl.
Thanks icinderella for giving a genuine perspective on the real difficulties you have experienced and probably most partners would experience in relocating to a new environment, man or woman. I read your words carefully and it has given me food for thought.
It's great Dale E that you agree with me, that's it's crazy:)
It wasn't difficult for her to get used to her new life, because I believe that in her soul she was always oriented on changing the place of living, just because she didn't enjoy life here (meaning culture, habits, humor)
I never saw him, but from her stories and letters, I think that he is a good, man
but he is about 30 years older then she, or even more...that's what I can't understand, but they are happy:)
Nice chatting with you Ptichka, I'm going to bed. I work weird hours. 4:00 inthe afternoon till 3:00 inthe morning and it's six in the morning now. Don't be a stranger to our forum, I know all the guys get excited when a woman makes a posting here! :o)
I'm glad you had a good time making fun of me.
My husband is 6 years older then me. But you have nothing to say because we are on the different sides of a fence. I'm here and you are there.
Yeah - Don't be a stranger to this forum. Maybe you'll get lucky too.
icinderella I never made fun of you. I really have a friend in USA, who is married with a man who is older 30 years then she is.
I'm not your enemy or anything like that. And I don't try to find a man here, I have my boyfriend already and I really love him. I'm here just to communicate with people, it's the only place where I can communicate with people from different countries...so what's wrong in that?
To DaleE : I guess I became a little bit snappy after a few nights with no sleep. My kids have contacted some nasty virus and our night sleep became a history.
To Ptichka: I was surprised you are a woman to start with. And I didn’t expect that my posting would become a chat with another extra topic. I was looking for more answers to my question.
And I’m sure there are many great, non-drinking, devoted, loving guys in Ukraine and FSU including yours. But there is something unique (in a good way) in America when it comes to the family and kids. There is always an exception to any rule. There is always a rotten apple in a good batch. Everybody knows it. But there is more good than bad here, in general.
Anyway, Ptichka, enjoy being in love and socializing with the OTHER guys.
I’ll drop by to check any new suggestions on my posted questions.
thank you both for your contributions, both very different, but both very interesting, there are hundreds of different experience, we must not generalise, there are many good women in England, I just happen to think that there are many more in the FSU that match what I am looking for, the maximum age group I look for is 10 years, I would have no problem with 20 years younger, but I would like that she is attracted to me physically now and in 20 years time, hence, I do not correspond with someone who is 20, it is building up problems in the future, I am glad that uou are happy in the west icindarella, and that you are happy in the Ukraine ptichka
