Tips For All Men Who Are Seeking a Russian Bride

Looking for a Russian bride? Want to learn more about Russian women? You will discover why Pretty Russoian girls seek husbands abroad, what they want, where to look for a Russian bride and much more. Enjoy the reading of this article.

Tips For All Men Who Are Seeking a Russian Bride by Mark De Schutter

Russian women are known for their beauty, poise, intelligence, warmth, and strength of their character. Undoubtedly, attributes that a man from any corner of the globe is bound to find appealing. But, making a lasting relation is not easy, more so when your life mate speaks a different language and comes from an entirely different background. It requires mutual respect, understanding and unconditional acceptance for one’s partner. So, for all men who are seeking a Russian bride there are some things you need be very clear about before making any move.

A fact not known to many, women by far outnumber the men in Russia, one of the prime reasons why Russian women look offshore for an ideal match rather than leading a lone life in their own country or settling to be ’second best’. In fact, most Russian women expect a life long commitment from the person whom they choose to date and not a mere casual fling.

Since, English is not their first language; it is expected of you to keep the tone of your correspondence simple and neutral. Also, give them space and time to write and speak English the way you do and at the same try to learn basic Russian words & phrases. It goes a long way to help impress upon her and her family that you intend to accept their custom and tradition as your own. And the Russian women are extremely sensitive about their culture, tradition and country so you must try not to say or write anything that mocks her country and beliefs. Russian women are self reliant and they are not after your money and for them it’s a shameful thing to do.

Russian women like their men to be well groomed and hygienic. So, unkempt and untidy men, better pull up your socks before you make a move. They are articulate, fun loving but like things to move slow and steady. So, if you want your relation to last take one step at a time and don’t push things unnecessarily. Also, don’t build a relation based on lies, the biggest spoiler for virtual relations. The bubble eventually bursts someday or the other and it all comes to an end. Russian brides prefer honest and sincere men to be their life partner and expect complete loyalty from their partner.

For those seeking a Russian woman as their life partner, coming across one used to be probably the most difficult part of it. But, not any more since there is no dearth of marriage agencies and online dating and matchmaking sites meant to cater to the Russian bride seeker. To join one of these sites, you need to create a profile filling in about yourself, likes, dislikes and physical attributes as well upload your snaps. Once created, your profile can be accessed by all registered users (which includes all the Russian women registered with the site). You can search the site database and choose amongst the Russian women on the basis of their physical appearance, age or interests and hobbies and then start corresponding with them on an individual basis. Most dating sites allow you to chat, exchange mails and communicate with each other in a secure environment. Besides, there are the networking sites, where you can make posts, participate in opinion polls or join various communities and share your views with the other users.

You should not go about declaring your love for her in the first few interactions. Give your relation some time and talk about your interests, culture, values and try to show a keen interest in her family, values and tradition (you’re bound to earn a few brownie points that way).When you’ve spent considerable time knowing each other well, you can take your relationship to the next level; a trip to her homeland where you get to meet her personally and introduce yourself to her family. The Russians and Ukrainians are known for their hospitality and you’ll receive special attention at their place. When you’re invited over at her place it is polite to take a gift alongside (the usual chocolate/wine/flowers thing) and make sure you don’t forget to compliment the food and their home. These sites in fact will also offer you such useful advice and relevant information regarding Russia and The Ukraine, their culture and how to conduct yourself and behave with the Russians. They can also help provide you translation services and personal consultations if required.

All said and done, there are a few fraudulent sites that lure one must be wary of. In the garb of making matches and providing Russian brides, one comes across ‘loose’ girls who’ll simply pretend to be a descent Russian girl looking for a match and in fact would only be after your money (remember, Russian girls usually don’t ask you for your money!), while a few others simply want to migrate to some other country by marrying a foreigner. So, it’s best to register one self with the better known and reputed online dating sites that have been around for a significant number of years. A whole lot of such sites have a separate section where in the users can post their feedback and experiences. The success stories are for all to see (in fact you can get in touch with those people personally and get a first hand account of their Russian bride hunt experience with the site).

Some of the better known Russian dating sites are; russiandatinglive.com, match-ru.com, Russian-women.net, European-dating-club.com, woman-russian.w-ru.com, and Baltic.russian-women.net amongst others. The reputed sites require the registered Russian women to appear for a personal interview and psychological screening where their intentions, credentials are assessed thoroughly so that fake profiles can largely be avoided. The agency staff thereby claims to know the ladies personally. The ladies registered on such sites are from well to do families and have nice academic and professional background. In fact, many of these dating sites have a marriage agency in Russia and Ukraine which lends them a genuine touch.

Writing a Letter to Your Russian Lady

by Oksana Boichenko

Long-distance relationship means your writing has to convey volumes. And while emails are a great way for keeping each other up to date on the current events, a hand written letter will be much more meaningful in expressing your feelings. When you take the time to write a personal letter by hand, you can show your Russian lady how much she means to you, and she, in turn, can feel special and re-read your sweet nothings any time she misses you or wants to feel close to you.

Finding a common language

Your letter will have a special touch if you use Russian as a part of it – a greeting and an ending will be great. This will show her that you are not only thinking about her, but also trying to learn her language. If you can find a translator to help you manage more of a letter in her native tongue, even better. Or you can always have a translation done by the dating service, and forward two letters to your sweetheart – an English and a Russian copy. What better tool for learning the language than a letter from the man she loves?

If you have a talent for poetry, write a poem for her – it will be a truly romantic thing to make your Russian bride feel like a queen. If you do not think you can pull this one off – dedicate to your sweetheart a favorite poem of yours, this gesture will be considered no less romantic.

Things to talk about

Do not forget that a point of writing a letter is to make it special. It is a perfect occasion to talk about your feelings and mention romantic things that you do not normally write in regular emails. Make a point of mentioning things that attract you to her, dreams for your future, hopes for next meeting, etc.

Of course, you will also want to mention some things about yourself – perhaps some things about your life she doesn’t know yet, things you enjoy, or some qualities she might not have yet discovered about you. And, naturally, the best way to show her your interest is to ask her questions about her life. Feel free to ask her about her family, her dreams, and her past – anything that will make it easy for her to share with you who she really is. The more information you find out about each other, the easier it will be to establish a common connection and prompt further communication.

Better to see once…

When you are mailing a letter to your sweetheart, a great idea is to include some pictures with it. Since most Russian women are generally looking for a man to create a family with, your lady will appreciate seeing some of your family photos, pictures of your friends, and things that are meaningful to you. This will be a great way to show her what you are like in real life and support things you have to say about yourself. You can include photos of places where you live, work, or simply like to spend your time – it will help your Russian lady feel like she is a part of your life, and make you a part of hers by keeping photos close.

An even better idea is to include a video with your letter – it can contain sights of your home, office, some friends, or things that are routine in your life. It will be even more touching to tell her on tape all the things you would want to include in a letter. One word of caution: make sure that you make your recording in a format your Russian lady can play in her VCR or DVD player.

If you stick with a regular letter, do not despair if you think you are not good in writing letters. Your writing does not have to be a Pulitzer prize novel – it only has to contain your thoughts. Be sincere and share what is on your mind – your Russian bride will appreciate getting to know the real you; after all, that is what you want your woman to love you for.
