The majority of Russian women who want to get married and move to another country are looking, first of all, for the well-established man, who will be able to take care of them and the children. That is why almost all Russian women, who register in the marriage agencies or on the online dating web sites, are looking for older and reliable men. More and more women are currently coming to the conclusion that it is worth to try their luck with a westerner.

This happens because Russian men take their women for granted. First of all they drink – and this is the greatest problem of all. Even if they work, they spend half of the income on alcoholic beverages. Besides, they are absolutely unwilling to do anything related to household, which means that all the responsibility lies on women’ shoulders.

It is a long time tradition to treat women like that. If Russian women get married in Russia they will have to cook, do all the household chores, work hard to provide for the family and look after the kids all by themselves. Men think that their main responsibility is to work and bring home money – everything else doesn’t bother them.

While thinking about marrying a foreigner Russian women dream that they will be sharing the work, which must be done about the house with their husband, who will be loyal, kind and caring. Russian women see no difficulty in preparing food or doing the household chores – they just want to be appreciated.

Older men are considered not only to be perfect husbands, but also mentors. It is natural that if the Russian woman moves to another country she will need some time to assimilate. And the responsibility of the husband is to facilitate this process. You can take your wife out more often, so that she can be around English-speaking people, you can also get her acquainted with your friends – thus, she’ll find out more about your personality and will feel more welcome.

Russian women are generally very smart. Almost all of them have higher education, because it is a tradition in all the former USSR countries and besides – it is simply impossible to find even a low-paid job in Russia if you don’t have a university degree.

You can be sure that your Russian wife will not make you look bad in front of your friends: Russian women are gorgeous; they are very tactful and know when to keep silence and when to tell a joke or to say something nice about you.

Many foreign men are afraid that if they marry a Russian woman they will have to spend a fortune on her. They couldn’t be more wrong. Russian women are not spoiled at all – life in Russia is very hard and luxuries are not available for the 99% of women.

Besides, Russian women are very proud – you wouldn’t want to make her feel like you are buying her with gifts. She will gladly accept flowers or other inexpensive item, but should you buy her something really big - she will start feeling like she owes you for it – and that is a feeling Russian women don’t like to experience.
