Your Russian Bride - Is There a Catch?

Some things in life seem too good to be true.

If you're using the internet to search for a partner, a healthy dose of scepticism is not a bad thing. It can even be critical when sorting the genuine from the non-genuine, the suitable from the non-suitable.

When you see profiles of women who seem to be "just too good to be true", then the next thought is usually, "OK, if they're genuine - what's the catch?"

To many men from Western nations, it is highly refreshing to see not only physical attractiveness exhibited by the "average" Russian lady, but also real feminine beauty in their thoughts, desires, interests, and expectations of relationships and family.

What's the catch?

There will, of course, be some cultural differences, usually some language difficulties to overcome, adjustment to a new life. But, not only are these easy to overcome, they can also be an enriching and positive aspect to your relationship. (I think this is so important and so overlooked by most people that it will be written-up as a seperate article in the future.)

Really, the only thing men should keep in mind that may possibly seen as a "catch" is:

Russian women want CHILDREN.

If you see a Russian lady as the ideal partner, but you do not want children, you are looking in the wrong place for your future wife.

Of course, having children is the ultimate achievement for all of us - male or female, but whereas many women in the West may increasingly see it as a "choice", to Russian women, it is an essential part of womanhood. It is an absolute given that a Russian woman should marry and have children. It is a cornerstone piece of their cultural make-up and upbringing.

Any man who wants to have children should take this as a "godsend", because not only does she want to have children, she will take it as a joy and a pleasure to nurture your children in the most loving and caring way - like you have never seen before.

To see a Russian woman with her baby is nothing short of beautiful. To see how she sees it as a blessing and a privilege to cater to that child's needs and healthy upbringing, (and not a chore, or a burden, or a "difficult responsibility") - is breath-taking!

OK, so what if she already HAS children?

That now becomes an individual question. If she has more than one child already, she will most likely be content to not have any more. Even if she has only one child, she may also be content to not have any more, as it is not unusual for Russians to have only one or two children.

What if YOU already have children?

She may be fully accepting of your existing children, but she will still want to have at least one child herself. Life would not otherwise be complete for her as a woman.

Is it better to have a child together regardless of how many existing children either of you have? In my opinion, yes, but of course it will depend upon both of your individual wants and desires. Your ages may also have a bearing on your decision. If you're both over 35, and already have children, then you are probably both past the "having children" stage, and are content to seek stable family life with your existing brood. Your (and her) choice.

So is there no other scenario?

There always exceptions to the "rules", but the vast majority of Russian women fall into this category. Children are an essential part of life. It is natural for them, and they will tell you just that! A dream to be fulfilled.

To any real man, this should not be daunting in any way, it should be a huge relief!

Not only can you find the ideal WIFE, but ideal MOTHER to your children. You've hit the jackpot! The best of both worlds - in more ways than one.

If that doesn't inspire you to pursue this particular road to happiness and fulfillment, then I seriously don't know what will.

You can give shallow women the flick. Real women are out there.

Women's Day Is Coming!

March 8 is International Women's Day.

Although largely unknown in most countries, it is an official holiday and very well celebrated in Russia, and many of the FSU countries.

It is a day where women are THE focus, and men show their love and appreciation for all the women in their lives by giving flowers and gifts, plus doing special things for them to give a day of pampering and adoration.

On Women's Day, men should attend to every need of their women, and a good man will ensure that she shall do no cooking or other household tasks. He will take care of everything so she can relax, even if it is just for a day.

If you have a relationship with a Russian woman - you know what to do!

If it's a "long-distance" relationship, at least organize a flower delivery, and perhaps a small gift to go with them, for example a box of chocolates. She will be thrilled!

Deliveries can be organized quite easily to almost any city in Russia or the FSU. Shop around for the best service based on what they provide, to what regions, and at a reasonable price.

I would suggest going with a large, established flower/gift delivery service, but it is also possible to find some great services in the local area where your girl lives (Tip: often they are local marriage brokers, and can also be a handy contact for various local advice and services).

Did you know - there are RULES when giving flowers to a Russian?

And as it will tell you there - go court like a gentleman!

The Mail Order Bride Myth

Hopefully this is stating the obvious, but just to confirm everyone's suspicions - "Mail-order Brides" simply do not exist. There is no such thing. What's more - the term is an insult to the intelligent, educated and discerning women of Russia and the FSU. They can not be bought, ordered, or put into an on-line shopping cart & delivered to your door. Doesn't happen! And if you think you can bring her to your country before you've ever physically met - think again.

If you're looking at using any on-line service for finding your Russian bride, here's a tip for weeding-out a good proportion of the bad ones right from the start:

Do not deal with ANY service-provider who uses the term "Mail-order Bride". They have NO integrity, and no respect for the women they are trying to "help".

If they insult the women, what else do they do?

For Russian women, success = marriage, children, happy family life.

What are the priorities in life of the women you know now?
Career? Material possessions? Being a teenager forever?

Give them the flick!

Rest-assured that REAL WOMEN still exist.

Feminine, strong, proud to be women, priorities in the right place.

Women that don't want to BE men or compete with men.

Women that want to be compatible with men!

I advocate relations between Russian women and Western men because I believe they WORK. There is much to be gained by both parties.

Unlike most people that give advice on this subject -

I do not have any connection with any dating or introduction service.

Advice and assistance - without the bias!

OK, so those Russian girls look attractive & sound attractive, but are they really all after a guy in your country?

The short answer: NO.
