Oh my gosh!  It just dawned on me that wiz and I are looking in the same demographic.  Same country.  Same city.  Maybe I'll see his picture in one of my date's apartment??   Naawwww.  LOL

Hmmm...maybe perhaps the two of you should get a room? Cut the searching  and call it a night, so to speak.  :)

I will take a Russian accent over a Brooklyn, Philly, Boston or Baltimore accent any day.

Unfortunate thing is that I can't hear wife's accent.

Wife's accent doesn't grate on me, cause I don't hear it.

I am never tired of wife's cooking because she mixes in everything from Ukrainian food to American food, and everything that she takes a fancy to . . . Mexican, Italian, etc.

She is an extremely active person, always cleaning, doing yard work, doing school work, etc.

She has good sex drive, probably somewhat on the high side for women.  Always ready any time of day.

She is very intelligent; IQ probably higher than mine.  Hard to tell though because she overwhelms me in terms of higher math, whereas I topped out at college algebra; even as I am a wiz at financial and accounting stuff.

Devoted to her family back in Ukraine, but doesn't over do it in terms of time spent on Skype and Zoom with them.

Has been extremely attentive and caring to me with respect to my broken bones; actually more so than I would have guessed.

Very frugal with money.  Doesn't spend wildly or even moderately on clothes, makeup or actually anything.

More later; have been called to eat.

Scottish and Irish accent would be the dream though.

You have found a real keeper that suits you. And everything comes to an end. SO now she is showing you the gem she is.

Angel Eyes has many EXCELLENT attributes and LOVES, LOVES,
LOVES, LOVES me.

Good list
Still hot, sexy, attentive, interesting, funny, frugal,
honest, excellent wife, mother, home maker, feminine,
loving, my confidant, proud, good cook and baker,
gardener, she can entertain herself and others.

I could go on and on and on. She is the love
of my life and she loves me ten times more than
I could love anyone or anything.

Bad list
More stubborn than a mule encased in concrete.

Sometimes thinks she knows something that she
absolutely does NOT know and believes that
I am totally wrong and she is totally right.

Usually this problem can be sorted out by use of
Google, but not always. Sometimes she IS right
and I am totally wrong,
and as long as I admit
it I don't get my nose rubbed in it.

She will occasionally cook something too bland to eat.
Stubborn, she can be stubborn. Oh yes, she can be
stubborn. :D

I love that girl!

Bill mentioned stubborn.  That does seem  to be a trait.

Example 1:  Wife believes that A is true.  She believes in science, so I can show her the science that A is not true.  Several neutral persons can advise her that A is not true.  She will seem to accept that A is not true.

Some days/weeks/months later . . . she will proclaim that A is true.

Example 2:  She will make something to eat that I (rarely) do not like.  I will tell her that I don't want to eat such.  She will apologize for making (which I don't want her to do), and tell she won't make it again.

Some  weeks/months later . . . the item will appear again; and  she suggest that I 'just try it.'

Example 3:  We will be shopping for garden vegetable seeds.  She knows nothing about item X.  I tell her that I don't like item X and that she will not like item X.  After we get home . . . I find item X in the sack.

She plants item X, it grows, she tries to eat . . . and doesn't like.  She declares that she will always take my word for this in the future . . . until the next spring.

Example 4:  If any neighboring Babushka back in Ukraine says that M is true . . . then it is certainly true.  If this Babushka is her Mother . . . then it was on the stone that Moses brought down from the mountain.
A beautiful woman is pleasant to look at, but it is easier to live with a pleasant acting one.

PREFACE: my RW came from Siberia, here now on student visa, we have been living together for one year, we saw each other 6 times in europe and russia for about 2 weeks each time for the year before she came to the usa, I have had 10+ RW girlfriends over the last 5 years and had started visiting Russia since 1998 going once a year. My current RW is 30 and I am 50.
Top 10 List
10. She is a good friend and partner
9. She is very sexy, great dresser, very feminine, about an 8 on a the beauty scale
8. Speaks good english and understands the nuance and humor, though accent thick
7. She is very patient while I am moody
6. She cooks and likes the domestic, but adapts easily to the fun, travel, nightlife
5. Her accent though cute at first is starting to grate on me
4. I am sick of smoked fish, perogi, stuffed peppers, borscht
3. Her consistant attention to makeup, skin care, dressing, shoes is making me tire
2. She likes/loves me more than I like/love her
1. I hear the "call of the wild"; want more and different even american.

Although not mentioned, perhaps OP is tired of syrnike also.

Wife makes her own cheeses from scratch.

Here is the soft cheese (tvorog) used to make syrnike that she just produced.

I love syrnike covered with yogurt, honey and walnuts.

I don't have a problem with stubborn FSU women. They all think I'm stubborn.
Fund the audits, spread the word and educate people, write your politicians and other elected officials. Stay active in the fight to save our country. Over 220 generals and admirals say we are in a fight for our survival like no other time since 1776.
