The good thing is that you don't have to please all Russian women, or even most Russian women, you just have to find one woman who will love you and will share your interests and a desire to have the same lifestyle as you do.

Since this is a corner for sharing personal favorite phrases as has been mentioned in the beginning, I would like to add mine and it goes like this-forgiveness is an asset of the great but it's benefits can be experienced by one and all, hence do not hold grudges, qualms or be rueful. First forgive yourself for your mistakes then others for theirs.

[GoodOlBoy]

There's always 2 people in a relationship. When you establish an imbalance in importance and significance in these relationships in the beginning, understand that you will reap what you sow.

[Vaughn]

Sometimes, perhaps more frequent than not, men and women just go through the motions with no hope for love.

The one thing i find important in the MOB context is:
I personally feel  a very large number of these relationships have a higher percent on the sliding scale to  *marrying for locations .status reliability /stability ,, vs simply emotional love*.

[BC]

'Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.
She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.'

...come across as desperate to get married. I see guys like you all the time and like sharks smelling blood in the water, the predatory women are just as good at spotting it. 

 

[BC]

When I first met Viktoriya, I used to advise men who I met to go to the FSU for a wife... but I haven't done that in a very long time. It's not that I'm not happy with Viktoriya, it's just I have come to realize just how incredibly lucky I am.


I don't think that what I did is necessarily repeatable. Not that others can't find happiness overseas, its just that I think they'd have to work it out on their own.

[Daveman]

... The fact is, the MOB is the mother-of-all 'Gaps'. Age gap is just one of many whether folks want to believe that or not. There's cultural gap, language gap, spiritual gap, morality gap, economic gap, academic gap, societal normality gap, etc...gaps are undenibaly predominant in these relationships.
 
Then to make this even more interesting, you have thousands of WMs trekking to FSU citing how, despite these obvious 'gaps', they find' compatability' and 'love' beyond any shadow of doubt within one or two weeks of FSU vacation time. Of course, these happen with women who generally possess higher level of physical appearance than the men who pursue them...call this baby, beauty 'gap', LOL.

Damn Dave you went waaaay back for that one. I don't even remember saying that.

[Gator]

I wonder, why do you guys strive to please women? Be yourself and enjoy yourself... IMHO no need to please anyone, potential dates including. If women, or just any person, just cannot be happy themselves, no one can make them happy unless they want and do it themselves!

A real pearl. 
 
A woman is responsible for her own happiness.  Be yourself, and if it does not make her happy, find another fish in the sea.  If you stay, you would become just as miserable as her.
 
I have heard this advice before, but from men who are wise and experienced.  This is the first time I have known a woman to reveal this deep secret of the sisterhood.
 
Further proof that the RW here at RWD give the most important advice.
