Newspapers ads.......(How to meet your princess)
« on: March 12, 2007, 02:36:11 PM »
How to find and meet honest girls in FSU???  Hmmm...Hard question. Some men only wants to use agency's and come time after time to meet agency girls. I used newspapers ads in the 5 newspapers in Kharkov, Ukraine. My friend and helper Slava helped me with this. He put his telephone number on the ad, and for 2 weeks the phone rang all the time :). In fact this was in October/November 2005, but girls rang on this ads to February/march 2006 :).

Anyway, during this 2 weeks I meet more than 40 girls and I could have meet maybe 100 :D. It was the best 2 weeks of my life!! It was so funny. Before I went home had I meet the girl that 1 year later became my wife.

I would highly recommend to try newspapers ads in Ukraine. Why?? Because many of the honest girls don't want to be listed at the agency's because they feel ashamed to be listed there because this agency business has a bad reputation in Ukraine by the girls and peoples living there. I asked several of the girls I meet why they did not register at agency's and they told me so.

Here is a photo of my newspaper ad and the a photo of the girl that later became my wife :).

I can tell you newspaper ads do have a very wide and attentive audience in FSU.

Good way to go IMHO.

Yes in aviso can you post free ads. But remember that most girls speak only Russian and put ads in many different city's is stupid because then you will vaiste time on traveling. Better stay in one city and post ads in this city.... :)

Thor, Mrs Thor has pretty aqua eye's!  This leads me to believe that she may have been looking in the handycap section of the news paper when she accidentally came across your profile ;D and thought she was sending money to an orphange ;)

How did you advertise? 
What was the response?

DA she has a tattoo, but this tattoo is so strange. When we where in Turkey this summer she got REALLY offended because a man making tattoo in the hotel asked what the he....was this tattoo on her shoulder..She told me that this tattoo on her shoulder is from a dream she had. Strange Ukrainian girl.... :)

Hmmm I had some letters thrue email, but not to many. Most girls rang on the telephon.

My friend Slava made all the arrangements for my ads in the newspapers..He speaks Russian so this is the best way to do it. Use a helper. Slava sett up all my meetings with the girls, tranlated and was a "scam docktor"...

If I wanted I could have meet 100 girls at least, but you get tired of meeting all the girls....You need time to go to nigthclubs too :) (Alone :))...

Thor

For those of us who cannot read russian, would you translate your ad? Seems it was highly effective!

All this just goes to show that the internet is not the whole answer in this quest.  The newspaper personals ads were around long before the internet sites and I suspect will be around long after most get tired of the websites. 

Obviously Thor has found what he was looking for and the time frame looks quite short by comparison to many.  Maybe the old ways are not as slow as some like to believe.  His whole plan looks to me that it was fairly well "Thought out".  Funny how the "Thinkers" often succeed.

Hi Thor

Your advert and your g/f (then) photo comes across like the "Beauty and the beast".LOL

She must have a problem with her eyes.......marrying you, a sex tourist... LOL

Did you tell her about the arguments you had with the trees in Odessa and the funny girls you were escorting in Kherson? If you did then you had a lucky escape there..... LOL

Remember that many girls have no access to internet in Ukraine...But almost everybody reads newspapers..Big city girls have access to internet, but village girls who are students in Kharkov have few money and internet is not their first priority..So of course using newspapers ads reach a lot of girls.

Hmmm Yes "Thinkers" often succeed. But it is all down to preparations...I used several months to study Ukraine, the culture, some Russian language, and so on. So I was well prepared when I came to Ukraine. Hard workers will always succeed in the end!!

Thor,
The newspaper ad is a good idea, but what would also be very helpful is contact information for reputable and well circulated newspapers to place these ads. :)

Hmm..I used my friend Slava in Kharkov and he took care of everything for me. I only had to give him some information and send him a photo of myself. After this he took care of everything. I just had to come to Kharkov and the next day he had so many girls ready to meet me. In fact I meet so many girls that in the end was I feed up with all this dating... :D

She told me that she loves 'Nature' when we were at the zoo in Kharkov....when she comes to her new home in Texas, she will see many of the animals at the zoo....only here there will be no cages to contain them :o  We will see how much she loves 'Nature' ;)
