Reality Check!!!!!

[BC]

Ok here's the deal..

Discussion is how pictures affect your choice.. vs ladies criteria you really desire.

1.  In most browsers it is possible to turn off images..  This should hide the pictures..  If you visit agency sites  regularly you may have to clear your browser cache.
(if you don't know how to do any of this ask and someone here will hopefully help you.)

2. Pick an agency site with a good search engine and search YOUR criteria for your "Dream Lady".  Review the resulting profiles (without pics). Feel free to use more than one agency site.

3. Pick your top 5 or 10 profiles based on your non visual criteria and save the links..

4. Post your best links in this thread. (DON'T PEEK!!!!!)

5. Turn the images back on and see what the ladies look like!

Doesn't matter if you're married or just looking.. just consider it a game where  honesty counts.  If you wish to include the criteria you used (age ranges, language abilities etc) it would be great but not essential.. you can explain the search criteria you used in your post with the links you produced.

BE HONEST!!! when posting your links.. that way it will be more fun for us all.

I'll bite....what search criteria is valid? Height, weight, age, ect.?  Any keyword searches?

Btw, I always get a sense from reading the bios that I'm watching a Senate confirmation hearing or a lost episode of American Bandstand, because the answers are always the same ("it has a good beat and you can dance to it" was the catch-phrase on AB for those too young).  I'll have to put together a list of RG common catch-phrases in another post.

BC, I'll try this - great idea.

NDOC, not always though, and for the man who puts stock in profiles, that's the challenge. I waded through countless homogenous profiles. My wife's was rather unique, at least at that time - professing her great love for her own daughter, narrating their little adventures in the forest and parks together. I've found that most women with a child barely make mention of the boy or girl, except statistically - gender and age.

 Last month I saw one woman who went on and on about farming - how she'd love to meet a rancher or farmer, and tend the animals. How often does one see that?

Taking away our visuals? BC, I predict some major cheating!

[NDOC]

Process:  I went to yahoo to find a MOB that I don't do business with (just in case I offend one of the girls unintentionally) and recognized A Pretty Woman.  I've heard of the name but haven't heard anything either good or bad about the agency.  They seem to have a good-sized number of girls to do a search on and a fairly detailed search engine.

 

I used the following criteria for my search.  This wasn't the original criteria as the search produced an unmanageable number of profiles.  The criteria was narrowed until a reasonable number of profiles were found.  Keep in mind this search criteria is more restrictive than I normally use with a smaller agency.

 

Ages 28-32 [/b]

Height: 5'3"-5'8"[/b]

Weight: up to 121 lbs[/b] (I like girls reasonably fit to begin with so that when they get bombarded with all the unhealthy things to eat in the US they have a fighting chance.  Also, I've found a girl that keeps in shape generally is more healthy and has a higher self-esteem.)[/size]

Kids:1[/b] (I don't have any myself, but I like children.  I'd prefer to have an instant family rather than relive the family planning nightmares of the previous marriage.[/size]

Beauty:[/b] (I ignored this as I think it would defeat BCs intent)[/size]

City: any[/b]

Country: any[/b]

Status: any[/b]

English: Some English[/b]

Profession: any[/b]

 

I got the search back with a little over 100 profiles.  I went through them looking for some key words that are generally associated with my "type".  I'm definitely into artistic, feminine girls that are outgoing and cheerful.  I looked for key words in their description: interests like dancing, music, art, theatre, cinema, etc. Occupations that are artistic like florist for example, and words like happy, open-minded, merry, cheerful, etc to describe their character.  That brought the list down to 15 girls.  I went through the list a second time to cut it down to 10.  Some commentary was included to illustrate my thinking on the fly.  Note:  I took out any girl that wrote anything about money or finances.  I also gave models, fashion designers, and choreographers the boot as they probably are scams.  I also tossed the ones that seemed way too domestic.  Knitting, cooking, sewing, etc. are good if you aspire to be Betty Crocker, but are kind of boring to be honest.  Poetry is also a big no, no (had a bad experience).

Why she made the list

 

I like girly girls and especially the happy artistic kind.  She lists her interests as dancing, music, theatre, and reading (3 out of 4 isn't bad).  She describes her character as loving, joyful, and caring which I hope means that she isn't too jaded or cynical.

 

http://aprettywoman.com/d.cgi/6278A23672286216.105.193.371137037540

 

Why she made the list

 

Interests: music, dancing, piano so likely another girly girl.  She likes animals which is good because I have never been without a pet of some kind.  She like traveling, which is something I also enjoy. 

 

Character: cheerful and optimistic, something I look for.  Prefers and active kind of life.  This is very good because I'm not a couch potato at all and I'm rarely at home on the weekends.  Now if she likes skiing…drat, no luck.

I googled 'search women russia'

picked first link shown http://www.russian-women.net/search.shtml  Never heard of them, don't know who they associate with.  Figured picking the first google entry would be what most folks initially do anyway.

selected english speaking....  2470 results ugh..  did not wade through all, just picked within the first 5 pages.

briefly scanned profiles over 30 yrs.. (max 15 difference but kept well in the 30's since I wanted another kid).. following profiles looked interesting/nothing totally incompatible or unacceptable.   I didn't choose any particular physical attributes other than maybe build (slim).

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/il2422.shtml

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/gf3273.shtml

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/iy1123.shtml

Then came across the real search engine.  Used following criteria.. rest left at default

Min Age 30 Max 35          Seeks partner:     Your Age: 45
Her application date between: Jun05 Jan06 and Living In Russia
Language Italian    

Got only the following two results:

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/cv6730.shtml

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/nc7261.shtml

Will look at the pics after I post this.

btw.. for those who don't know me I am married, was not seeking a RW.  I simply met my wife while travelling so no motive at all here to 'peek' first.

[BC]

I found these two, both among my first searches more 'pleasing' from the beauty

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/gf3273.shtml

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/iy1123.shtml

If I were searching by pictures I probably would have skipped right over the rest.

[Vaughn]

I got several hits, but didn't peek. Kept narrowing it down to just one.

My criteria: 37-43, one child, divorced, 5'2" - 5'8",
108 - 121 lbs, eye/hair color no preference, English ability, keyword: music, since that's important to me.

Without seeing my dream lady, here she is...

http://www.russian-women.net/ladies/sw2070.shtml

PS - happily married, for entertainment only

Edit: just saw her. Pretty maybe, but def not my type. See how visuals skew our real needs? Hey, she does live in Moscow - that would have saved me the extra 16 hour train ride...

[BC]

Vaughn..

hmm.. as lucky as you are maybe I will go to vegas with ya!

[docetae]

[Casanova]

[LarsXYZ]

Hi I tried that on http://www.loveme.com/
I selected girls in the age 25-35 years, with low weight, since I like that girls are thin as preference, as my wonderfull Ukrainian wife is :-)

Pictures offcourse disabled, I would even say that this is a very good idea :-)

My result:
Daria:

Maybe, they should add search for BMI (Body Mass Index)

regards lars

http://www.globallovematch.com  at least they are honest about the girls "options" or intentions
