Perfect soulmate for a Russian bride

Open any preferable for you search engine and enter "Russian bride", "Russian girls" or "Russian marriage agency". You'll get pretty many result on this matter. Surprising for all the FSU countries, isn't it? All of them have been behind the "iron curtain" for many years.

And as soon as they gained independence the matchmaking business began flourishing there. So why do Russian brides decide to look for a husband abroad?. .So when I've began to think about this question I've met one good girlfriend of mine, who happilly married an Italian guy and has lived in his homeland for a number of years. So I chose an esiest way ? just to ask her instead of digging through piles of statistics. And she revealed me te simple truth.

.Before I move on, I'd like to make myself clear: this article include motives and wants of not every Russian bride, who submits her profile to a marriage agency. And may be I won't be the first who'll say: try be be as cautious as possible if you decided to apply to a marriage agency. In the past, some Russian ladies have provided more than enough negative publicity (read my article on scams in Lugansk city, Ukraine), but don't let that discourage you and miss out on a chance to gift someone the pleasure of communication and a possibility to find love. With this in mind I will proceed?. .

When I began asking the motives of Russian bride who takes a chance on matchmaking services and online dating sites, my first discovery was quite strange. The major explaination for the Russian women to prefer foreigners to the local men is that "locals" aren't god enough. Everything is simple - there are so many bad stories about the life of Russian girls.

"Why not admit that the reason is in those men at home, who don't know what a family is and don't value it?" - said my friend Natasha commenting on the article in one of the leading Russian papers, which blamed marriages to the foreigners. "Unfortunately, there are a lot of things the Russian men would have to do to keep up with the foreigners." Some bridal agencies will give you the same information. An American journalist, who took a "Romance tour to find a Russian bride" trip to Ukraine as a part of his investigation for a story, says in his online journal that the instructor on the tour explained to him: Ukrainian and Russian men "drink, philander, alternately beat and neglect women.

". .Obviously, not every Russian man treats women this way, but they say in Russia ? the exception of the rule only proves this rule. Nevertheless, a general conception that most Russian women share of the men in their home countries comes down to a few common words: irresponsible, hard-hearted, too demanding and not willing to provide for their children, let alone their mother.And in opposite, throughout history Russian women have been famous for the way they treated their family. They are loving, devoted and caring, and, coming to a marriage agency they dream to find someone like themselves to create a strong happy family.

.In line with a lack of quality of the Russian men, there is also a lack of quantity. The year 2002 gave us a discouraging statistics showing the ratio men-women 46, nothing has much changed since then. Given that a large part of these 46% are people who can't be counted on for love, care and support, it leaves the ladies of Russia and Ukraine very little to chose from. Obviously, when something you need is not in sight, you look to broader horizons. .

"All the good ones have been snatched away long ago, your chances to find someone in this country after you turn 25 are next to nil," Natasha told over a cup of coffee (she married her Italian sweetheart at the age of 29). "It seems the guys in FSU countries disappear when they turn 30.". .On the top of all said, the appreciation of their own femininity sets the Russian brides apart from American or European ladies.

A lot of men can see that the Russian women are different. And this is not only about their outer beauty that is so well-known. These ladies like to look pretty, it is very usual for them to wear a dress and high heels on a regular basis, they care about their body and like to be attractive. They love being feminine.

.The Russian women cherish being a "weak gender", which for them means taking care of their family in the first place, as well as being cared for and appreciated. Promises of that seem to be given in abundance by Americans and Europeans, many of whom share an opinion that it has been too long since Western women have shown any aspiration to cherish the softer side of the "weaker gender".

The men abroad consider the tender feminine side of Russian women a great advantage comparing to Western women mad about careers and getting equal with men. Even some FSU men notice that the foreigners are attracted by "their" women because they "remain women, not some emancipated feminists, like in the West". .As the conclusion I can say to you - everything comes down to what you are looking for. No doubt, there will be some money-hungry vamps, eager to trap you. But if you are looking for a lady who will truly respect you, relish her family and be as smart as she is pretty, the chances of you finding that in Ukraine, Russia or other FSU countries are greater than at any other place :).
