I wonder why the issue of age arises that often on this board...

Age is not quite an indicator for personality.


Cuz for "whatever" reasons (socially) it seems to matter -
Whilst I wish more AW/WW took your view/attitude/open-mindedness of "Age is not quite an indicator for personality", they don't... And as a 42 year old AM, fishing in the 32-36 y.o. American waters, well, that has proven to be "trying" at best... [sigh]

But reality is, even when I visit "Russian" sites (anuta.ru etc.) I'm often told by those less than 30 - that such an age gap (>10 years) is "just not natural" - and that comes from Odessa and St. Pete - So, while sure, there are many (some?) that will flex on age - I think you really gotta check motives at the door carefully... As a 40+ AM friend recently told me in regards to his 24 y.o. UW (wife) - "Everyone has their price" - I was not really wanting to hear *that* - especially from someone I respect/admire and think they have a fab marriage - But suppose the truth hurts aye?

Guess I'm just an old romantic - and (want) to still believe that "true love" and traditional family values still exist out there *some where* in this world, Nyet?

Good comment Lily :-)

Lily, please DON'T resurrect this dead horse  :wallbash:. Apropos of which:
Quote
Beating a Dead Horse - How companies treat the dead horse
Dakota tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. However, in business we often try other strategies with dead horses, including the following:

1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Say things like, "This is the way we have always ridden this horse."
4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
5. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
6. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.
7. Appointing a tiger team to revive the dead horse.
8. Creating a training session to increase our riding ability.
9. Comparing the state of dead horses in todays environment.
10. Change the requirements declaring that "This horse is not dead."
11. Hire contractors to ride the dead horse.
12. Harnessing several dead horses together for increased speed.
13. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."
14. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
15. Do a Cost Analysis study to see if contractors can ride it cheaper.
16. Purchase a product to make dead horses run faster.
17. Declare the horse is "better, faster and cheaper" dead.
18. Form a quality circle to find uses for dead horses.
19. Revisit the performance requirements for horses.
20. Say this horse was procured with cost as an independent variable.
21. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.

Love polls! What should choose a single RW? Either you, guys, are on crack because you forgot such option, or I, because I didn't see it. :D

Rose, they seem not to have many options for us.. :)

What does it mean 'someone is on crack'? My ABBYY Lingvo has lots of options but not 'on crack'..the closest is 'in a crack'...the meanings are sometimes just opposite.

Please, correct me if I'm wrong. "To be on crack" is a slang, which means "to be high", in other words "not to think clearly" at least that's how I understand it. :D

Anyways, I think "on crack" is better than "crack on to" :D

As the creator of this Poll... Yup - that is 100% correct - Apologies for the American 'slang'... For "back then" we didn't have many RW visiting... and probably I was on crack at the time (JK!)

You have a more suitable term that RW will understand? :)

It depends on what do you want to say with that term.

How about:

  I'm a RW and think ALL you guys are insane!



The age thing comes up a lot because guys worry about what our society will accept as "normal" hoping that a 25 - 30 yr age difference won't be noticed or gossiped about behind their backs (it's the main reason so many agencies try to convince men that Russian and Ukrainian women PREFER older husbands  ::)). I agree with you, much more can be learned from a few photos than from a stack of birth certificates!

as the age of the husband increases, the age difference between the couples increases. In other words, there are more 20+ age differences in the 50+ age range, than in the younger age brackets.


Well it will not be possible to have a wife 20+ year younger if one is 30-35 :)

Would not one choice of a Russian equivalent of "being on crack" be to have noodles in ones ears    "I may be off a bit on the exact wording of it since I have not read that for a while but I think those who know the expression will know what I mean.   Other choices might be to be drunk, to be crazy or to have wind in their head.

Turbo, Let me correct you: to have noodles ON ones' ears. It means that someone told this person a bunch of lies, and that person believed all of them. I don't think it's close to being on crack, although I've been on crack, so I have to use my imagination...

Well, sinse I didn't have any other option, this one was the closest. Why? Because I simply don't have anyone to choose from other given options :D

What in such case am I doing here? Just stopped by to see how guys are doing - I like  a lot of them, and appreciate that they were here when I needed some gateway.

LOL. Pretty much. Based on the table, I doubt there were more than a handful of women who were even in their early 40s when they married.

Agencies tell me the average guy looking in Ukraine is around 42 years old and wants a woman with no children and under 25 years old.  So it appears once a girl turns 32 years old she gets very little attention.  Just something to consider for guys who are not very picky on who they date.  A lot of 30 year old women with kids who will make good wives in the agency.  But the guys like the girls who the agencies meet at highschool / university and pay them for their pictures and answer the letters for them.   Plus pay them for meeting guys.  But 30 year old women who have never been married and/or do not have children can be a problem too.
