I'll take it you meant to say:

"I was going to say you have been married to Miss long legs !!

rather than

"I was going to say you have been married too long !!"    right?   

LOL--yeah--I had to many finishes  to the start of that sentence.
Marriage could certainly wear off the charm-- and when the charms get a little tired I guess they could not have the original appeal either!!

I've met Mrs I/O - trust me when I say that there's plenty of charm there (even if her husband says she only brings it out for visitors!  )

Welcome to the fourm Baffin.  It sounds like you have a lot of pluses going for you in your search.  Most of us have to overcome a number of problems such as little vacation time and no knowledge of Russian.   That should be a big help to you.  One of the major things people have to overcome in this search is misinformation.  They read all the crap on the major MOB sites and form a lot of opinions that will lead them into problems.   Spending a lot of time on RWD is one of the best things you can do to get ready.
Do Russian women have charms?  For many it is like a pipe wrench in a plumbers tool kit,  when they need to use it they have it in their tool arsenal.  Russian women are like people everywhere.  Some good ones, some bad ones and lots in between but all in all there are some wonderful ones.  I have been married for a little over 5 years to one of the most wonderful women I could ever imagine.   
Looking back on my long search if I wanted to suggest one thing  that might help someone searching for the path to a happy marriage it would be to not settle for just a beautiful sexy woman with a great body and a nice personality.   Those are easy to find but look instead for an inner connection and someone who can really be your partner in life.   Good luck in your search.

I would add something to Turbo's description.  Assume you are going to find a woman that fits your physical attribute requirements (as long as you are not too far out of your league).  Then look for wisdom and kindness.  It doesn't hurt if she has a ready smile.  Those personality traits in a woman bode well for a long and happy married life.

You are talking about women from the FSU, right?     Get her alone, free from distractions, then you can start expecting smiles (providing, of course, that you're the guy who really floats her boat, so to speak)...

Yes, alone and away from other sour-pusses is the key.

I am amazed at how much my Gal smiles now, even in the early morning at first awakening.
