My first post

Hi, everybody, this is my first post. I am in the process of trying to find a Woman from the FSU. Many think I am mad, but after trying to find a special woman in the UK since my divorce over 15 years ago Ive given up in my own Country. Ive tried all the usual things, online dating (UK sites), pubing, clubing, even joined dance classes all to no avail. Yes Ive had relationships in the past 15 years but nothing has ever worked out for the long term. Always willing to accept criticizm, I first started to look at myself as to the failure. I signed up for something called double your dating. This program's intention is to equip men with the things they need to do and say to pull Women. This is all well and good if you meet women. My problem is they are thin on the ground in the first place. The available ones are usually either overweight, have bad breath or have mental issues, or are covered in tattoos. So now I am casting my net wide and I find there are some really nice looking and seemingly feminine and genuine women in the FSU. My problem is that of fear of being scammed and I think perhaps the only real way to be sure you dont is to forget about all the sites there are and just fly over in person and suss the job out.

Welcome to RWD!

 Read through the FAQ's and the Trip Reports and you will have a good start at getting prepared for this adventure.

Costnerkev, as long as you do not send money to strangers you will not be scammed, and with a little bit of reading you will be able to find out the first differences quite easy. Flying over there and try to meet women would be kind of hard, unless you happen to speak Russian. And as fellow-UK members can tell you, that is not easy to do.
So read around, think for yourself which is the most natural road for you to follow (stay close to what you are used to) and then just dive in. Do not forget to ask the odd question now and then, but be prepared that the answers might not always be what you want too hear.

Welcome to RWD, as Catz suggests, get stuck up to your nuts in the guts of the FAQ section. It's good solid, basic information that will stand the acid test.

I suggest you do just as you have suggested, get over there, somewhere and sus the job out. Forget chasing too much skirt for a first trip and simply aim to get your toes in the water. You are much better equipped to do some serious Duck, AKA Skirt hunting on a second trip.

Welcome to the board, Costnerkev.

It is absolutely not easy to find a good Russian woman and marry her. In the same way it is not easy for a RW to find and marry an American guy. But when we talk about any European country, it seems absolutely impossible to me. Simply because of the size of a country (or amount of people), that is usually twice smaller than most of the US states. So to find someone just in England, Germany or Spain, is, I think, irrealistic. So it is great you expanded your 'net', it is a decision that can lead you to your happiness.
