And before anyone starts with the 'oh you poor dear boy' crap or 'you are just associating with the wrong type of FSU person,' - - - it is just not me.  These discussion threads are filled with the comments of those who have experienced exactly as I have.  True, there are those men who will claim they are the recipients of 'thanks you' from the FSU people, but those men are far outweighed by those who have posted exactly as I have posted regarding this matter.
It all depends on one question... what should they have thanked you for ?
No it is not a dog. Its really how I look.  ;)

Post away  ;)
Meeting someone through work or somebody you know is always best.

 Errr wrong, haven't you ever heard the phase "Never shhh where you eat"?

 What happens when your relationship fails that your friends set you up with?

  I think you can trust the OP here mostly to be flat honest -

 1) Is over 30

 2) Has a child and is over 30

 If the OP wants to take that risk of setting up friends with complete strangers and is willing to deal with the fallout if it fails, then more power too her.

 I've encouraged people to connect but I've given up on hookups because 1) they never hook me up! 2) when they do, its a troll or something 3) they always come back to me because we share that one person in common and they believe I know something or know why they act a particular way.

 Your opening Pandora's Box, I wish you well and why is girl number #2 so ridged in locals?

I personally don't know anyone who has had an issue introducing friends to each other. Maybe I just have a good group of friends  ;)
Certain people I would NEVER introduce to a woman.  I would not want it to come back and bite me in the ass...
At work I have seen issues occassionaly I suppose.

If it does not work out you part ways like adults and move on.

Girl number 2 just not considered to distant places, because Europe is closer, I have been  in Europe.  America and Australia more  far away and more unknown for me. Although maybe one day I will change my opinion. If meet my person. :)

 Good points, but then again your assuming grown folk act like adults when the police blotter and supermarket tabloids tell a different story...

They take and take and take from Westerners and give nothing in return in the way of thanks.

So why do you and other men continue looking? If RW are so bad, so ungrateful, why would you want to be married to such a woman? I just don't get it.

As I have noted elsewhere, RW are not all saints and angels, but the same could be said of any women from any population. Sure, there are cultural differences, but if a man is not open to cultural differences, then he should marry a woman from his culture.

That is a sterotypical negative answer by a RW who doesn't like comments or critique about their character attributes and prefers to swip most comments under the carpet,

Wiz, keep in mind that there are individual differences: in any population you will have a great variety of different personalities and characters.

Quote
The Russian language has a lot of fluff and what it can be explained with few words in English precisely in Russian you need 100 words to make any sense!

When did you become fluent in Russian? Speaking both English and Russian, I can affirm that this is completely false.

Quote
As about intonation I don't think the Russian language has any and everything sound the same in my ear and I do speak one or two foreign languages to know the difference!

The Russian language doesn't have any intonations?!? Wiz, sorry, but this is completely false. Sure, if you don't speak the language, it all "sounds the same" but when you speak the language, slight changes in intonation can make a huge difference in meaning. If anything, understanding intonation properly is certainly the hardest element of communication. Even though my wife and I talk constantly in Russian, every so often we will miscommunicate because I misread the tone of her voice.

Yes, but if men think that RW are rude or brash or whatever other stereotype that you can come up with, why would they believe that there is "one worth holding"? You can't have your proverbial cake and eat it too. Either you believe that all RW have been tainted by their culture and upbringing and fit the stereotypes that WM ply or you believe that all women are individuals and that stereotypes are pretty meaningless.

This applies to both FSUW and FSUM.  They take and take and take from Westerners and give nothing in return in the way of thanks.

Russian people are rude? You haven't been to a cannibal tribe yet. When they eat you, it's not because they meant to be rude... there are just some cultural differences between our societies  :ROFL:
It's your problem if you take my posts too seriously.

I meant any woman in general to be honest, but this is RWD I suppose  ;)
I will probably take a lot of *snip* for this, but some stereotypes have some validity to them for any culture. Some are complete and utter bs.
The key I think is to look past them and look at the individual.
Just because I have a friend who is  a geographically challenged American does not mean that I am.  ;)

 Most Americans are geographically challenged...

 Some people make generalizations about RW to a degree, but to be honest I haven't seen some of this behavior that Mars speaks of.

 Maybe because I don't have anything to give but myself?

 Maybe its because of who I am ;)

 Some people tend not to fall for the old Okie Doke

Dear wiz...You are right My English has been ailing since childhood  ;D and I could take some words of natives wrong. Don't worry I do my best to improve.

About all other I am not going to keep discussion "Russian horse: restrain or kill" is also very trite and stereotypical for my taste.

So, take me :evil: and RW like work of art...not nessesary to explain better to feel.

And sorry about "mental problems" I really wanted to say that you and other writer seem very unhappy in privat life.    

I bow to your superior and insightful knowledge of my personal "unhappy private life" but then you  should be right because you know of my "mental problems"! :puke:

Not more to say about your BS diarrhea trying to pass it as intelligent dialogue! 
You can fool some people at times but not all people all of the time! ::)

Welcome to RWD.
Your opinions and input are valued here..

Everyone-
please keep things civil ..
this escalation of a fly to an elephant is not needed.




As far any individual womens criteria posted..
Anyone has the  right to be  interested in a partner  from their city,
 their region or only in one country if they want.

There's some humorous  irony to pointing out somone having whatever limitations they may have,
on a forum where a good amount of the men concentrate only on women from one nationality, half way around the world.
(ok pehaps a few nationalities but still extreemly limited )


**********************


Any RW,(no pun intended)
should be able to  simply introduce a couple of single RW here,
with normal comments and civil discussion.


Us single guys, would appreciate it.


Thanks in advance for your cooperation.



polite enough?

No, actually when I first read the original tag it looked so weird that I thought, *it must be an intentional mistake*. Especially in the context of what was being said.
There really was no reason to change it, it was perfect!  :)

You understand English much better than I understand Russian.  And you even understand "us lunatics", which is better than I can do.  I am glad you are here.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I don't understand what are these people even doing on this forum since they act as closed minded xenophobes. For their own sake I hope they don't try to get romantically involved with a partner from culture other than their own. These 2 girls have been nothing but sweet in this thread...

As for politeness, some cultures may seem less polite than others, but this is really not anything else than cultural differences. Maybe you don't realize this, but even "pleasant" politeness like everpresent (and often very fake) American smile, smalltalk phrases that are supposed to show that you care even if you really don't give a *snip* ("How are you today?")  and general over-the-top friendliness are making many unaccustomed foreigners extremely uncomfortable...

Thank you for those words. Very pleasant to communicate and read most  members. I agreed that any misunderstanding can be solved only by communication, rather than aggression. A distinction must only understand and learn. :)
