Getting along with your Ukrainian or Russian lady’s family

Russian women are known for their family values; it is one of the main reasons many men decide to look for future partners among them. Russian ladies are very loyal to their families, they place them first, and will be the most dedicated mother and wife once you marry. Russian culture includes a lot of family time – during holidays or everyday life – and your sweetheart will certainly place a lot of importance on their partner having a good relationship with her family.
 
One of the ways to do this is by showing respect. Being kind, courteous, and following the cultural customs are great ways to show your interest in becoming a part of the family. Be observant and pay attention to small family traditions (i.e. having elders be the first served at the table, etc.), then follow them. It will show your lady and her family that you are respectful and acknowledge their feelings.
 
It is also important to be thoughtful. Most Russian people are very hospitable and will treat you like a VIP, and you can be well prepared to show your appreciation for such treatment. If you are invited to your Russian lady’s family’s home, remember not to come empty handed. You do not have to bring anything fancy, but having a small gift for the hosts will be a nice gesture. For example, you can bring flowers for the hostess and wine for the host, a dessert for everyone, or something similar. Your effort will not go unnoticed; it will show your sweetheart’s family that you thought about them in advance and prepared for the visit well.
 
Remember that actions speak louder than words. Your Russian lady’s family will want to see your care and intentions for her, so whatever you tell your future in-laws, support it with actions. If you make a promise – keep it, do not promise things you can not deliver. Seeing you be consistent in doing things you promise will help your Russian bride’s family trust you and make them feel like their daughter will be in reliable hands.
 
Same as communication with your Russian lady, be honest when you talk to her family. Be open about your intentions, describe how you see your future together, whether you plan to get married soon or would rather take things slow, and try to answer any other questions they may ask you. Since dating a man from abroad often means their daughter leaving for his country, many parents might be concerned about frequency of communication and being able to keep in touch. Try to address any concerns they might have, or even look for a compromise together. Your lady’s parents and family will appreciate you being upfront and honest about the future possibilities; it will help them adjust their expectations and will result in less tension for everyone.
 
Once you and your Russian lady have made plans to join your lives in future, take any opportunity you can to communicate with her family. This can be especially useful when you visit your sweetheart’s country. Make a point of spending time with her family and getting to know each other. Tell them about your life, ask about theirs – such communication will help your lady’s parents be more accepting of you, and can also help you learn more about your sweetheart: knowing her family history can explain a lot of who she is.
 
Whatever steps you take to getting to know you Russian woman’s family, make sure that you are genuine. Having your bride’s family accept you and know who you are will be a great way to ensure a happy future for you and your sweetheart.

The charms and beauty of Russian and Ukrainian women

The beauty of Ukrainian or Russian women are well known all over the world. However, the natural desire to take care of themselves and look their best is not the only trait that sets Russian women apart from everybody else. Every Russian woman knows how to stay abreast of the latest fashion trends, apply the make-up the proper way, and groom her hair to look her best. But the physical looks of Russian women is not the decisive factor when it comes to attraction with men. Russian women have something more that helps them to conquer the hearts of men not only in Russia. This precious thing is a "mysterious Russian soul" (according to the Russian classical writers, загáдочная рýсская душá), family values, personality traits, and a very traditional outlook on life.
 
The family is the priority
 
Emancipation might have spread all over the world but Ukrainian or Russian women stay faithful to the traditional views of the male and female roles in a relationship. A Ukrainian or Russian man is considered to be a provider who supplies the family with tangible assets, while a woman is viewed as a housewife and the mother of children. In contemporary Russia, many women use all the opportunities to get a good education, get a good job and build their careers. However, family (семья́) always remains the main priority for most Russian women.
 
Pride and Modesty
 
Most Ukrainian women can be described as modest and friendly (скро́мные и приве́тливые). Being brought up according to patriarchal traditions, Russian women are acquiescent with men being the authority. In Russia, women never rush to break up or end their relationship with a divorce. They instead use every possible chance to save their marriage and continue the relationship with the man of their choice.
 
Russian women place great importance on romance. They like when men give them flowers and read poetry. At the same time, expensive gifts might be a bit of a concern. Russian women are very proud of themselves and will be unlikely to accept an expensive present that will indebt them if accepted. At any rate, there are no rules to obey if a Russian woman is in love. Even if they can't be named the women with southern temperament, the Russian women are very passionate and tend to fall in love once and for all.
 
Ukrainian and Russian brides: Reasons to marry a foreigner
 
Ukrainian  women are also famous for being excellent housewives, great cooks and loving mothers. They usually learn since childhood how to cook traditional Russian meals and they love doing it. Besides, it's not very common to keep a housemaid in Russia. That's why Russian women are used to doing all housework themselves. These qualities of Russian women are highly valued by men in Russia and many other countries. In fact, there are many foreigners who are happy to have a Russian wife (рýсская женá), as well as there are many Russian girls who dream of marrying a man from abroad.
 
The reason behind this frame of mind is because Russian patriarchal traditions, which we have already mentioned above, also make men used to being the head of the family and, sometimes, men take for granted all the love and care that Russian women make available to them. The lack of respect from some Russian men is the reason for Russian women to seek a romantic partner abroad, hoping for a match who can provide for the family and care about the children.
 
On the other hand, foreign men tend to respect their love from abroad more and that makes their wives happier. Moreover it's always a great experience to build an intercultural family in which two people can interchange not only their personal experiences but also the heritage of their countries. But it is certainly more difficult and requests patience and respect from both husband and wife

Be Different - Woo your prospective Ukrainian woman in style. Try including something extra to convey to her that she is special. A poem, or a pressed flower, a soft toy, or anything that you think can win her heart. Try your hand at a poem as an ode for the lovely Ukrainian woman!
 
Correspondence - "Words, Words are all I have to take your heart away" is a very popular song. Always write to this woman in simple and plain English. English may not be her first language, but she will be able to understand your letter better if you keep it simple. If your handwriting is difficult to read, you may consider typing it. And also don't write her very big letters simply because it will be really difficult for her to read them.
 
The Magical first letter - Your first letter should be fast-paced and interesting to read. Talk to her about yourself and your background. You can even write about your hobbies and interests. Just write your first letter, to the Ukrainian woman, like you would talk on your first date.
 
Showing You are Interested - How can you show that you are interested in the woman? By asking her questions about herself!

Women like attention, and what better way to shower attention that by asking this woman about her hobbies, her likes, dislikes and many other things?
