Oh no, no, no. We wouldn't have any problems. We'd simply kill each other. :DQuote:

As I understood it, they had never actually met; however he eventually travelled to the Ukraine where she lived. Shortly after that, they married. Next, she started posting videos of her honeymoon. She is continuing her lessons on Youtube, from the USA but not as frequently. I really hope she is happy... http://www.youtube.com/user/allatek#.../2/PaSAnqYPtLY
Начать с того, что моя жена не работает ))) Так что это так - абстрактно. Причём, не потому что я её дома запираю, а потому что ей самой надоело. А дело не в мужестве, а в уважении к самому себе. Я у женщин никогда даже в долг не брал.Quote:

WOW ....... I am astonished. Someone sounds bitter .... and very narrow minded. Sigh ....
I am a woman and an American with both sides of my family deeply seeded from Europe. (remember America is supposedly this great melting pot)
No matter where you are on this planet we call earth, is everyone the same. Differences are good. Generalizations are bad. I really loathe generalizations about people. Small minded and closed.
NOT all American women (or women in any country) are as you described. AND I hate to say this, not all relationships survive or not survive, regardless of where you are in the world. People are people. Each culture has similarities and differences. It is if you choose to look beneath to each individual person. Humanness in all it's glory!
I believe ANY relationship (spousal or friendship, family or work, etc) takes WORK. Day in, day out. Relationships require some amount of commitment. No one ever meets expectations of another. Not even in the happiest of relationships.
There will be days you like each other, in love with each other, loathe each other, etc. Comes down to choice, work and commitment. Seeing beneath the suffice. Not the artificial overlay.
I also tend to believe materialism is a byproduct of media, again regardless of where you are at.
Sure there are general similarities we can place on different cultures. I suggest being careful when making such sweeping statements, because unexpectedly, a person will inevitably surprise you.
Problem these days .... no communication, quick judgment of others before getting to know them, expecting the impossible.
How about choosing to love everyone, meeting people where they are at and not taking it so personally, putting yourself on the line to be there for others without expecting something in return, not expecting some ideal of what you perceive they should or should not be.
ps. my opinion here .... I believe love is a choice NOT a feeling.
Good luck with finding a woman ...
Come on, get realistic. I personally know someone who had for the last five years "imported" three wives. All of them had divorced him right after they got their permanent residence status and/or found someone else [s:10ixqrsw]with more money[/s:10ixqrsw]. You'd better think about upgrading yourself or lower your expectations. :instruct:Quote:

There're basic principles of behaviour recorded in human beings' subconsciousnesses. These principles were formed thousands of years ago, they've probably gone irrational nowdays, but they rule a man or a woman's behavior towards the opposite sex. Regarding the women the basic principle is: 'produce offspring from the possibly socially highest males in your population'. This means a genetic advantage, as well as material resources for raising and social status. The modern society requires money as the measure of success therefore women use it.
Really, raising a kid requires good house, money and so on.
Eastern European women generally don't differ from the American ones, while the latter are prepared for details of living in the American society. While a Russian woman can make fresh dough, an American one can fulfill the job of finding the best mortgage. Take your pick, what's more important in your conditions.
Probably a Russian woman can stand more, but she demands much more devotion from her husband than an American one who are taught to rely on themselves. Think if your are ready to keep a close distance in personal relationships and you'll unlikely have a chance to maintain a 'personal space' or 'personal time'.

I'm ok with this comfort issue. Good tools lead to a better job result.
