You may think that because in Ukraine there are 86 men for 100 women, the local guys will have a ball on dating sites. But apparently, local men also complain that meeting the right woman is hard. Here is what local guys find hand when dating in Ukraine.
What local men think about meeting Ukrainian women through dating sites
Alexander Ermak writing for KP.ua is a 50+ men living in Ukraine, who decided to try to find a girlfriend using local dating sites. His wife has passed away and as he found himself lonely in his fifties, he decided to join local dating sites in search of a mate.
He placed his profile on 3 dating sites, after checking online reviews – LovePlanet, 24open and eDarling. At first he was trying to connect with “matches” automatically selected by the software program on the site. But on the first 2 sites one would have to pay to “lift” his profile to the top of search results. As he decided he didn’t want to pay, after a short while his profile was #3,129,582 in search results on the site.
(If you didn’t know, on ElenasModels.com your profile is listed to the top of search results every time you login! Within your level of membership. First profiles of Ultimate members go, then Platinum, then Gold. But within each level of membership, your profile is lifted to the top for free every time you login to the site. This helps our members to select the listings that are currently active.)
What Alexander also noticed, the same ladies were always on top of search results. He contacted one of them and the woman responded that she was happy to meet, and “it would be cheaper in the car…” after which she included her price-list for services. A hooker, that explains it… So, he decided to stop using LovePlanet and 24open.
Genuine matches on a membership site
The third website seemed to provide more genuine matches. It worked on the principle of membership, so he could pay for a period of time and contact women as much as he wanted. (That’s the same mode that Elena’s Models using, membership that gives you ability to communicate with women for a period of time as much as you want.)
He was getting 10-20 “matches” on the site every day and started communicating with some of them.
However, there was always something that would stop him from starting a relationship. For example, a woman born in Central Asia with 5 kids who made a few mistakes per word and then wondered why he did not want to reply to her. Selfish or bossy women he did not want to deal with…
After a while, he decided not to bother with writing letters but going on dates a.s.a.p. This also didn’t bring too many successes. Women in person were not always what they presented themselves to be. (This is why we recommend to talk on Skype with video — much cheaper and more useful than going on “dinner dates”! Your advantage is that you are in other countries, so you don’t need to rush into buying dinners but able to talk to women online for hours, before deciding to meet. No one expects you to jump on the plane in an instant, when you are dating long-distance. This is why dating internationally is actually cheaper than local dating!)
8 types of ladies that inhabit Ukrainian dating sites, as according to a local guy seeking love
Finally, our hero identified 8 types of women in the age category 45-55 years old (his target category) on Ukrainian dating sites for locals.
1. “Gardener”
Digging some ground and planting a vegetable or two is basically all she needs.
2. “Traveler”
What such girl usually wants is a decent travel buddy. She could also share some of her ideas with you and suggest having a spicy time at the beach or enjoying a nurse-patient role play.
3. “The boss”
She just runs around the house controlling everything and everybody. Especially if she thinks her previous marriage to an “unworthy” man was a huge mistake… Better stay away.
4. “Prude”
Your first kiss will happen. On your 35th date. Maybe. Well, if you are lucky enough. Or maybe not. Talking about moving to some intimate contact… promise to marry her first. She believes sex with her to be the biggest happiness of your entire life.
5. “With her head in the clouds”
She fiercely believes in fate, stars, Kabbalah and probably some other strange things.
6. “Sexy cat woman”
Those who were too shy while young but after marrying for the first time got all sociable and easy-going. She may introduce herself as a passionate muse who is always ready to experiment.
7. “Freeloader”
This one loves drinking, eating and simply having fun while you’re the one picking the check.
Freeloaders are always ready to party all night long
8. “Ordinary woman”
Not a bad person, beautiful inside and out in most cases, but has nothing special to offer. She works, buys groceries, sometimes takes walks or goes out. Just no chemistry, that’s the problem.
What Ukrainian experts advise to men seeking love on dating sites
Is finding the love of your life online just a matter of luck? What matters the most? According to psychologist Vladislava Sorokopudova, it depends on the person, his maturity and communication skills. Setting your expectations too high is also unhelpful to your reaching your goals.
So, if you want to find a relationship online, here are some tips from Vladislava:
- Remember that all of us are different and not everybody uses the website for the same reasons as you do.
- Do not blame everything on yourself – if someone is not nice to you, it is their fault, not your problem.
- Stay realistic and you will have more chances to find Mrs Right!
We can only agree. If you want to find the woman who will stick with you through thick and thin, check this exceptional manual for dating Ukrainian women by Elena Petrova. You will notice a huge difference in how women relate to you in an instant!

LOL! Great list, but debatable. I believe that Alexander not planned to offend girls. The types are only list of stereotypes. But the realuty is that each girl is unique and can be different. It depends on situation.
The only one type that I liked and totally agree – Ordinary Woman – she’s good, but “no chemistry”. Unfortunately it’s the greatest obstacle.
