I remember you mentioning talking to some bride hunter guys on a plane trip. Is that where you've heard these stories? If not, then where? Why not just give a straight answer?

Because I've already wrote it more then a few times and you're annoying at best. So please feel free to read the thread as often as you want to get abreast on all things me.

A future wife should be treated as a friend not a political adversary, in my opinion. Treat a woman like a 'mail order bride' and she's likely to act like one.

I would not know how to recognize a 'mail order bride'. I'll just leave that up to your expertise.


Everything I post is considered "my opinion" and honest and straight forward as possible. Don't hate the player but the game.

Amerikanski,

It' not for my personal benefit that I ask. It's for others reading this thread and for your own credibility. If you want people to believe your stories and accept your advice you should be able to back them up and answer simple questions.

I don't care if they believe me or not. But I do know they don't need "your" questions answered for my credibility. Because the reply count already proves it. And as mentioned your question has been answered several times, but you fail to acknowledge or accept that and why I find you annoying at best.

Then answer it again... with a bit more truth.  I for one am still a bit confused.  And it is not because I am slow... It is because I feel I am being mislead.

The term "Indian Giving" was a misunderstanding of ideals, and why the gift was given...

Though probably appropriate under some circumstances.  More recent of course.

I concur Seeker :)

Most people (out of respect) answer a question before asking another.

Can you or can't you answer my questions so I can get a better understanding of yours to answer?

Huh? The reply count proves what? Some of the most garbage threads here have the most replies.

I'm not failing to accept anything. Answer my question and I'll accept it. From what I recall you say you avoid expats and foreigners in Volgograd, met only 1 in 5 years, but chatted to some bride hunters on the plane before. Is that it? Or did I miss something?

Can someone else answer the question, if it's been made so clear? I'm not going to sift through 20 pages of this thread as it's mostly crap, and as posted right above, I'm not the only one confused by your answers (or lack of them).

I really don't get your attitude. I'm one of the few here actually interested in hearing what you have to say and have asked legitimate questions to get this thread back on track.

I'm particularly interested because you and several others here encounter Russian women who are generally rude, stubborn, demanding and unappreciative. All I'm getting at is that these are the type of women that go for (since you don't like the word 'target') foreigners, and not representative of all or most Russian women.

I have not seen a clear question... or a clear answer in any thread from you.  I might want to know you or possibly be your friend and learn from you.  But as presented, I am not sure what you represent, or how to think of you.

If it's all garbage why are you posting? Again, again, and again?

Then if you have not read the thread there will be another 20 pages bringing you up to speed. In short, read the thread in it's entirety and then you won't have to keep asking these questions.

Not only has this question been answered, but in several different versions. Second, then when a question is answered you get caught up on splitting hairs. In short, I don't want to discuss it with you because you are annoying.

So again, what is the question you felt mislead about? We got to start somewhere correct?

Wow... after 22 pages, it seems I am not the slow one.

Okay... point blank, ask me what you want, but in a new thread.  This one is tired and old and based on too much misinformation.  And I do not respond to insults or people who say ignorant things... (okay this I do sometimes... case in point)

First, there was nothing I wanted to ask you about. Second, what I've read of you the Ukraine is in your future and I've never been there and the only Ukrainians I've ever met are from my hometown or RU. So you can be a great guy I just don't have a bridge to work with or advice. Simple straight forward?

Okay... not what I read... But it works for me if it works for you.  But try to keep it cool.  Realize this is a varied audience and what is said may be heard differently and if said, you should (and will be) expected to stand behind it.

From the original 1st post..

I am new here and read more then a few threads and just stated to shake my head with the information I've seen.

There has been no further explaination of that statement other than to spark disagreement.

Have I ever been married to a Russian women? No, and never would.

With that in mind, why did you join this forum?

Been covered already, but "I" feel a lot of the threads/posts are sugarcoated or thrown in a different direction and well, things have to be explained in great detail when it's best left simple.

Example:(OP) I took my dog for a walk today and it was a nice clear day.

(P1) What kind of dog do you have and does it also crap on the neighbors lawn?
(P2) Do you pick it up?
(P3) My cat loves to crap on a clear day
(P1) I have a terrier
(P3) My neighbor has a cat that hates terriers
(P2) Does it crap on the lawn?
(P4) Sunny days remind me of my last love.
(P1) I love my terrier
(P3) Cats love their owners in a different way
(P4) I always pick up my dogs crap
(P2) That means you'll bond more
(P1) I think my lawn is better then my neighbors
(P3) Then he should crap on your lawn
(P2) Do you pick it up?
