Treat her politely and with consideration and you will be on the right track. Russian women are beautiful and value friends and family, if you are serious about finding a bride from Russia then here are a few tips on dating one. Russian women appreciate men who take care of themselves and their appearance and look good. You don’t have to be Mr. Universe or amazingly attractive, but if you are unkempt and unfashionable then most women will not be interested. Russian women generally will not ask you for money. They are very independent and to ask for money is a shameful thing to do, so if one of the women you are corresponding with in Russia does ask, then be very careful. If you have known them for some time and really feel it is a genuine reason they are asking then the decision is yours. If you have only known them for a short time and already they are demanding a large amount of cash from you, use your common sense. When dating a Russian woman always try to be as honest with her as you can. Starting off any relationship with half-truths or lies will guarantee it to fail. Many Russian women are very intelligent and educated and looking for a steady and honest partner with whom to spend their lives with, if you are found out to have lied to her then the trust is broken and trust is a very important aspect to Russian relationships. They are also very loyal and will expect their partner to have the same values. When writing letters to your Russian lady be aware that English is not her first language and write accordingly. Although many Russians can speak perfect English, their reading might not be at such a high standard and it still remains a second language for them. Use terms and phrases that are common and easy to understand. As you receive letters back from her you will get to know her level of understanding and can reply likewise. If you know her English to be very basic then it is advised to have your letters translated into Russian before sending them. For the first few times you write keep your letters casual and don’t declare your love for her straight away! You both need time to get to know each other and if you are compatible, rushing things won’t help either of you. Also remember to ask her about herself and her family, background, work, etc. If you only write about yourself she will get the impression that you are not that interested in her. Ensure you know something about Russian women and the culture of this vast country. Each culture has its own traditions and beliefs and you don’t want to put your foot in it at the initial stages. Finding out a little information won’t harm and she will see that you are serious about learning something of her culture and country. When you finally arrive in Russia to meet you’re the woman you have been corresponding with, there are various customs that will show you to be polite and considerate and appreciated. Ukrainians are very hospitable and as a guest in their house you will receive special attention and be treated very well. They are sure to lay out a feast for you and perhaps even give you gifts. If you do get invited to your girlfriend’s family house then it is polite to take a gift, just as it is in many other countries where if you are invited to dinner you take a bottle of wine or chocolates or flowers to say thank you. If having dinner, turning down food may be considered rude and be careful when complimenting a host's belongings, as they may then try to offer them to you.
