There was an interview in the KievPost press recently, an ex-interpreter explained how this business works... she basically said...
"We don't promote married women but we know the vast majority of the girls our clients are attracted to are scammers, prodaters or girls who have local boyfriends expecting to get gifts and money from our customers, we dont like scammers but without them there is just no business".
An agency will always blame a customer for any failure, that way they never assume any responsibility, that's why most of them have closed in last years and the marriage tourism in Ukraine and Russia is moving to sexual tourism... However the few agencies that exists try to call themselves "honest" (when this term doesn't exists for any single business of these).
In few years this business will disappear entirely and only those old fat guys looking 22 year girls will continue paying for this fantasy of "eastern women who can only find drunk and abusive man in their country".
Poopy/danny42/DUNT,,,,,, save your brain power for all of your other challenges in life, e.g. standing upright,,,,, walking,,, grunting,,, scratching your ass, etc!
Having just one profile here is too much for your two remaining brain cells,,, they’ll never handle a dozen!
You know this thread, pretty much sums up everything. Its pretty hard selling a person on a trip to Ukraine or anywhere else for that matter. No pretty girls writing love letters, which I am pretty sure are written by agencies, in the form of form letters. No pretty girls telling you they want to have your baby again trained to say. No pretty girls in pictures be directed how to pose. Just some person trying to pitch a sales job. to a man that is thinking with his little head, instead of the big one, Surprise ladies we do think and we do learn. Agencies are just there to sell a product. In this case the perfect wife, Guess what there's know such thing. It takes 2 to work through good times and bad, The harder they work, the more good times are to be had. Hope you find that person, your trying to convince. I know it isn't me
Then, there are people like Wifeseeker who advocates dating agencies and says maturity is not a factor.
I wouldn't go that far, stevec. What does a single man need to find a wife? Introduction to a single woman. Many of these women are corrupted by getting paid. (I believe shine bright when he says some are not). One just have to see through this corruption.
Over half of the girls in the agencies are under 30 years old,,,,, and most of them won’t be serious,,,, and the pros won’t stop being a scammer once they turn 30.
Most of the guys who have a wife now, found a woman with a child. They are a little more serious about their future when it involves their child.
Agencies are aiming their marketing towards what brings in the most money, sex appeal and chatting. The agencies don’t even like it when one of their girls wants to married.
I don't know, LR. How does that change what I said?
I recently asked a woman whom I met in an agency a long time ago if she was paid. She said no. When this woman and I broke up, she was kind enough to tell me the real reason, which I believed. This woman has never lied to me. There were times when a lie would have been easier, but she did it the hard way.
RB I think Shine bright is a woman as well, she writes like a agency woman, I remember my first trip to Ukraine fortunately I hired a person to be my translator he charged me 100 a day, when I met agency women their translators wanted 25 hr. Since this trip I have learned a lot found my wife on my own, The person that translated for me in Ukraine is now a person who I consider a good friend. He wasn't there when I met my wife who also speaks English, But did come to the wedding, I have a few people now that live in these areas so I get quite a bit of feedback about this business. Oh by the way 100 a day is very good money for a person in Ukraine and truth saved me a lot of aggravation, and being royally being ripped off. My comments are for sunshine or shine bright. She was asked the question a few times. name a honest agency. And averted this question in every post. The agency doesn't have to be perfect. Just reasonably honest. After all who of us is perfect. Just a agency that stands for its clients would be good. I think Khearson girls might be good thought about using them a time ago. However I don't need to now. I don't know how many people use this forum before taking the leap of faith, I think if they do they should have both eyes wide open.
My first Ukrainian date did not speak English much. But, we were in front of the computer where we could have easily communicated via translator. She insisted on a translator from the agency. I left her before that could happen. I was staying at her apartment.
Computer translators have improved a lot in past few years,but still have there moments of confusion. I am not against a person doing the translator, but lets be real. That person should not be able to retire on their first client. Build your business and your reputation. And like all people starting a business be prepared to do work else where to cover your slow times. This is a very common practice when starting a venture. As for dating sites, HMMMMMM. Be prepared to kiss a lot of toads before you find your princess. So Shine Bright what you have to say about that.
