I did not find such a man in Russia
« on: January 21, 2009, 05:35:41 PM »
I stumbled across this article entitled "I did not find such a man in Russia." Google did a decent job of translating the article: http://translate.google.com/translate?prev=hp&hl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fgazeta.ru%2Fstyle%2F2009%2F01%2F11_e_2922985.shtml&sl=ru&tl=en.

The article is a personal account of one woman who was widowed at the age of 30 and left with a 5-year-old child. She could not find a husband and faced a challenging time trying to raise a child alone in Russia. Finally, she found a man in Norway.

For those who read some Russian, I do recommend that you read the comments. It seems that the article generated a lot of discussion.

"I did not find such a man in Russia".

And IMO....She NEVER will find a man like this in Russia.

Sad story Misha.

Thanks for posting it.

This story just reinforces what I know about RM and why RW are left with no choice but to leave their "Motherland".

Sorry Possum....I am not referring to you.  :D

Reading the comments on that article reminded me of some of the threads I've read on antidate.  :rolleyes2:

Some of her key phrases are:

Quote

Но оказаться сразу в глубоком материальном кризисе - это еще больший сюрприз

But to find myself in deep financial crisis was a bigger surprise.

В Европе женщины не ищут щедрого, они сами могут себя обеспечить.

Women in Europe don't looking for a generous man, they can provide themselves by themselves.
