I am a Russian woman. I am happy to answer all your questions
« on: November 12, 2013, 12:45:09 PM »
I am a Russian woman. I live in Russia. I am 44 years old. Now I am in search of my future husband. I speak very little English, but I am happy to answer all your questions. I read the posts on this forum, and I see a big interest of men, which would have a serious relationship with Russian women. I look forward to your questions.

Welcome to RWD, Elena.


Don't just sit back and wait for questions, which may be somewhat few as everyone here already knows everything about everything, which makes differences of opinion very difficult to explain.  ;D


Jump into other topic areas and voice your thoughts on a wide range of topics.



Here are a few to start:


Are you using translation software to read here? From which part of Russia are you?  Have you communicated with many western men?  What is your overall impression of those with whom you have had contact?

For speaking very little English, you communicate well in your post.  So you are being a little humble, yes. 
 
Question, what is your education and occupation (job)? 
 
What do you like and dislike about life in Russia today versus the 1980s?  (I know you were a young dyevushka then, but what do you recall)

Thank you very much for your kind words. You are warmly accepted me.Yes , I use an interpreter for what to read. But I 'm learning English , so I can fix a translator. But I beg your pardon for the errors in my writing. I have spoken with many men . But not on your forum , but only on the dating sites . I live in the south of Russia , near the Black Sea . Krasnodar. What can I say about men with whom I spoke . Sorry, but a lot of scams and very horny spoil the experience . But on the other hand, a very good man. Love that almost all involved in sports and have a hobby. Many men who are paying much attention to their children. Many men know how to do different things in their home. They make repairs, paint something , take care of the garden, to cook food. This is amazing and very happy. I think these men are good husband in the future.I remember very well the life in Soviet Russia. Much has changed. Now there is no rigid ideology and everyone can think and say what he thinks. You can buy in the store is all you need and everything you want. But some things have become much worse, more corruption, very poor was the education in the school. I am a teacher and it makes me sad.

 :welcome:  Elena!  One of our Russian women members, Doll, is also from Krasnodar, although she married an American man and lives in the USA.  I visited your city for a short time in 2010, and liked it very much.
 
I wish you the best of luck in your search for true love and happiness.  :couple:

Elena,
We are all familiar with the scams directed at American men, but you mention there are scams directed at Russian women too.  I am curious as to what kind of scams these are?  Do they try to get you to pay money saying you are promised a rich American man as a husband if you do?

Elena might answer more in-depth, but I can tell you what they are.
First of all the 'send me money' scam happens to women as well.
Then there is of course the (married) business traveller who does not want to sleep alone.
Finally there is a category of men who manages to get a free vacation out of Russian women.
Remember not all Russians are poor ;)
No it is not a dog. Its really how I look.  ;)

In 2012, Russian media reported a 42 yo woman from Volgograd who met an AM online. He told her that he is serving in the military in one of the south eastern countries. After two months of correspondence, they deleted their profiles and moved to Skype. The man wanted to visit her city, and he asked his prospective mate to email his commando chief asking to grant him vacations. The woman also sent him $3000. After that, the man never appeared in Skype any more. Six days after the money were sent, the woman received a message informing her that her friend was wounded and is currently in a hospital. The friend then wrote that his medical treatments will cost some more, and the woman sent him another $2000.
The woman started to prepare for his coming visit, but her friend never landed. After that, the woman reported the case to the local police.

I do not know what percentage of emails from scammers comes to men. But in my experience, I can tell., What Women (and I, and judging by the Women's Forum) accounts for about 40%-50% of the letters from scammers ,30%- 40% of men who show their  member in the skype or asked to show boobs. and only 20% of messages from other types of men.

Elena:

Do I understand you correctly?

A). Close to HALF of letters are from scammers?

B). 30-40% are from perverts?

Thus, one in five letters (20%) is from a "legitimate" man?

If this is so, it is a wonder that any women are online at all...

First of all, I would like to say, Elena, that your picture is very pretty.  In United States we have a saying:  "Don't hide your light under a bushel."  It means that with such pretty pictures as those, you should not be shy to share them.

Now, if I understand you correctly, you are saying that on a site like Elena's Models that 50% of the men on this site are scammers, 30 % of the men are perverts (wanting to display themselves or having the woman display herself) and only 20% cover all other participants?

That would mean that out of the sincere group, one out of four (what we call the 5%) are actually willing to get on a plane and meet a woman. 

If you could, please confirm these figures for a website like Elena's Models.  I think that this is valuable information for readers of this forum.

Now there's a twist.  And every bit as nasty.  Any word as to what the police said about it?
