There are many sucess stories.However here is a letter from someone who is not a sucess:
I have decided to come clean after putting on a brave face for practically the entire time we have been together in the UK.
Sitting alone one night - I got a message from a 'Natasha'. Opened it up - she was nice but over 6 feet tall and not my sort.
The post wasn't from her 'as such' - she was the manager at The Internet Office in Kharkov - Ukraine. (i.e. Everyone got posts from Natasha!) She passed on Ludmila's profile and I literally fell in love in 7 seconds.
What a stunning looking woman with a figure to die for!
Long story short: Barrage of scripted posts (same letters to everybody!) Met her, adored her and married her 6 weeks later. FANTASTIC wedding. Six trips to Kharkov - all as wonderful as the first - visas, holidays etc. Adopted her daughter - spent a fortune on her, her daughter and family in Ukraine - 26th July 2002 - came to UK.
Disappointment literally from the beginning. Mother & daughter yapping in Russian all the way home. [As they still yap in bloody Russian now - all day along with MILaw -- C O N S I S T E N T L Y] I live in this house alone - own bedroom - NO family life whatsoever.
COMPLAINTS from day ONE. Bread wrong, tomatoes wrong, meat wrong - it was even too cold! (Then too hot! The UK compared to Ukraine?) Even the eggs were the wrong shape.
NEXT - homesickness. Dreadful homesickness. Understandable - took the 3 of us back to Kharkov for New Year. Bought the entire family's Christmas/new Year. Told by wife that she couldn't return to the UK on New Year's Eve - in bed. After six months of shit; I agreed. Cried - said she could never leave me etc etc - what a bluff.
NEXT - Came home - even worse; missed mother. Paid for MILaw to visit UK. MILaw gets ill - rushed to hospital - CANCER of the Sacum. Lied out of my teeth to get her an operation in UK (should have been a 'paying patient'). Success. One year later - Cancer - colon - same. Success. Complete remission. Next; Gall Bladder - operation - success. How bloody much did MY Country pay for that lot?
Appreciation ONLY from Nadia. Ludmila just continually moaned (and still moans) about the NHS, waiting times, Dentists!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! What a joke !!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!
Bought her a car - taught her to drive. [She is a HAZARD - literally] She cannot drive - period. Borja! Traded it in for F A with 17 dents and deep scratches in it.
Put Katya through £62,000.00+ of private education to which Ludmila now blames all her snobbishness, selfishness and every other fault.
In fact EVERYTHING is my fucking fault - every last bastard thing.
Sorry - capitols, not shouting - just worked up. Sorry swear words - just suicidal. << Sadly not a joke - if Daniel goes, I go>>
NEXT - she gets pregnant (this is not in order). Our sex life went from very good to very poor overnight. I had assumed she was on the pill as we had been at it like a Duracell Rabbit in Kharkov. OK - sexist attitude to assume. NO! Abortions was her family planning. She wouldn't go on the pill (it was unnatural). So 2 years in - sex practically stopped! (No, I can't wear cling film).
PARADOX - I get a WONDERFUL son who I love more than life that I wish (very hypothetically) we had never had. I cannot imagine living without him and, of course, she maintains that women's shit right to anything that pops out of their ++++.
I have done everything for this family - my 'so called' wife with a temperament that could kill a man in 9 seconds - her mother - her daughter and I am a fantastic father to Daniel.
This bitch of a 'Siren' has ruined 4 years of my life.
I have erupted on this forum several times, made a fool out of myself, all due to frustration and 'end of my tether' anger.
NOW - I am a super depressed SAD, lonely man who cannot separate from my SON.
Marry in haste, repent at leisure. Five out of six Anglo-Russki marriages I know of are over or in deep trouble.
The woman are ............ ......... ..... sod it.
Beauty and their beast inside. Beautiful, yes - amazing. Russian women are stunning (or it seems that way because there are so many available) -- figures! WO!
Attitudes? Appreciation? Cultural differences, impoliteness. ......
My marriage was shit from day one in the UK. (Hasn't all been bad, but 70%+ has)
My marriage was over 2 years ago. I sit here miserable, alone and scared (Daniel) and DREAD tomorrow.
