If you are dating a Russian lady, you may have some questions or concerns. This blog has listed dozens of articles dealing with multiple facets of meeting and courting women who were born in Russia or the former USSR.
While all people are different, there are some common denominators for prospective partners brought up in a certain culture, and Russians are not an exception. It would be helpful for men who are intending to spend time and hopefully establish a relationship with a girl from this country to find out potential areas that could become a problem or hinder your connection.

From the initial introductions and getting to know each other, communicating with Russian females may bring some surprises. For example, you may not be aware that Slavic ladies genuinely believe in the saying, “A man should be slightly more attractive than an ape.” They are more interested in your personal qualities than your looks.
Check these stories, or do a search for what you are particularly curious about (see the box in top right corner).

Why do Russian girls fail to answer some questions? Why do they hold back so much especially in the beginning? Even sometimes they are very, very short with words and say almost nothing, and yet they can be still interested? Also, why do they expect a man to already know exactly what she wants and how she thinks? Don’t the believe in “getting to know each other”? Getting to know the inner part of a Russian or Ukrainian woman is very difficult. It is in a tightly locked box, and the man either has the key to open the box… Read more »
Tad, it depends on which website you are talking to Russian girls. PPL dating sites where you pay for every message need you to keep writing and paying. You pay for every message, short or long. Every man dating Slavic women needs to read: – What is PPL dating? Pay-per-letter and pay-per-minute relationships? – The ugly truth about PPL dating sites for Russian and Ukrainian women – Is PPL dating a scam? Truth about PPL dating sites If you are not talking to Russian women through pay per letter sites, then my answers will apply. Otherwise, it’s just “business” and… Read more »
There are many young ladies who say they don’t have or want children. This seems strange if family is so important. Is this a red flag that they are not interested in this relationship and simply looking for opportunities. Are they planning to leave their husband and start a family later.
Steve, First of all, NO woman is seeking a foreign man to divorce him later. If this was the case, all girls on our site would have no requirements to prospective partners, ready to wed any man who proposes. Which is not the case — send Expressions of Interest to women (you get 20 free EOI’s when you sign up), and see how many positive responses you get back. Usually it’s 1-2 positive answers to 10 EOI’s sent. It’s a very scary thought for a woman to move to another country all by herself, and she is more worried what… Read more »
Elena, Hello again, Elena! and Привет!! I remember asking you a question on the phone in an early version of VIP Coaching program in 2008! Since then I discovered that I was a High-Functioning Autistic. I recently decided to give it another try with some new-found communication skills and re-joined the site. I am so happy to report I believe I have found MY TREASURE!! We are in love as we are crazy about each other! We have so many things in common even with 18 years of age difference. She was previously married to a Muslim man at age… Read more »
Roger,
It does feel somewhat premature to think about marriage before you even met in person. I am not familiar with Muslim traditions, if she is from a religious family, you better find out from her what is the best way. It may be wise to go for a visit first before thinking about marriage or moving to another country to live. One step at a time.
Elena,
I don’t use PPL. I was referring to women I’ve met on this site. Maybe it’s just me. Even though I usually like to only correspond with women who express interest in me first, some of them (not even most of them) but some of them just don’t say much. They seem to regard privacy very highly. But I would think that if you’re trying to know someone, you’d like to be a little bit open, don’t you think?
Elena!
Can if you know about men’s general reaction to scientific degree of women on this site. Is this an advantage or disadvantage for her on here?
Having a doctorate degree in sciences is not an “advantage” or “disadvantage”. It’s just who you are! It’s like asking whether having brown eyes is an advantage. If a man is educated and looking for an equal, he’d prefer someone who is also educated. A professor would be interested in a fellow professor. If you are looking for the right partner, be who you are! 🙂
Haha Russian women are hard to please! Just kidding 🙂 Actually it depends om man’s personality. So, read these tips and good luck to you in finding a woman of your dreams 🙂
The majority of people are convinced, women in Russia and Ukrain put on all their jewels and beautiful dresses even going for a walk with a child in the yard or throwing away dust. Now girls are dressed simplier, prefering sport style. However i am obliged to agree : if you are eager to impress a woman, you must be dressed tidy and fashionably. That is why your advices are actual.
I like the “approach”. It is too detailed. It is like a system to get women. But at the end of all everything depends on you and your partner. I do not think that some general advice can be good helping. Especially when we speak about love and relationships.
I know that many foreigners do not see the differnece between russian, ukrainian and belarusian women. In fact there is the difference but a very slim one. Russian women are very pretty, cute and sexy. You’d love them immediately!
I realize how little foreigners know about Russian women, their mind set and life style. Giving a generalized characteristic is not the best option, but anyway: Russian women are very good-looking, more family-oriented rather than ambitious and warm hearted.
It depends on a person of course, but foreigners say about Russians : “Oh, she works full-time, cooks dinner for her husband and even irons his tees!”, as for those things are not so common in eu, for example.
i`m from russia and i rlly hear this saying for the first time. You shouldn`t give a generalized characteristic. Thats wrong, all our women are diverse. One think that u should know it is that they love care about them. They willn`t see on ur look, if u r interesting person.
It is interesting for me as a Russian girl married an American to know what my spouse secretly thinks of me! It is a joke, of course, but I still sometimes do not understand why he doesn’t realize some simple things and I usually consider it to be “a typical Russian woman thing”, as he says. But I would say it is more about Russian people on the whole rather than about Russian girls. I mean, there are some interesting traits in our mentality, which foreigners do not get sometimes. But that is why we are different and this is… Read more »
