<p>International or Russian dating is one of the smartest ways of finding a wife abroad. For many years this search was limited to offline methods, but in the past few years, international and Russian dating has gone online. Online dating is cheaper and faster. While there are many international and Russian mail-order bride websites, pen-pal websites and so on, it is the online dating websites that make the most sense, as they let you interact directly with international or Russian women.</p>
<p>We at Loversplanet.com find that searching for a wife thousands of miles away is not always easy. Which is why we are always here to help you find such a wife.</p>
<p><span id="more-213"></span><br />
Here are a few ways in which a Western man can set out to find an <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/russian-brides-blog/finding-love-through-international-or-russian-dating/" title="Russian women marrying foreign men"  target="_blank">international or Russian wife</a> thousands of miles away:</p>
<p><strong>Finding an International or Russian Wife through a Marriage Agency<br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>There are various marriage agencies that specialize in finding wives for Western men who are searching for an international or Russian wife.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>But the limitation with such agencies is that you have to conduct all your dealings with them in the middle, which means you spend more money and have less control over how things pan out.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Finding an International or Russian Wife through a Pen-pal Agency<br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>There are many pen-pal agencies which let you write to an international or Russian woman, and then you can take the relationship further using the pen-pal service’s help with translation and other matters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>This has similar drawbacks as with the marriage agencies, because you are seldom directly in contact with your international or Russian woman.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Finding an International or Russian Wife through a Dating Website<br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The best idea to find an international or Russian wife is to go through a dating website. We at Loversplanet.com run a dating website which has a database of eligible and genuine women who would like to marry a foreign man for love.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Almost all these women have a degree of English skills so direct communication with them is possible through emails and chat.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>It does not cost a subscriber anything extra regardless of the number of messages he chooses to send to the women in His Friends Network. Loversplanet.com is not a pay-per-message type of website where you are charged for every email you read.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Loversplanet.com accepts women from Eastern Europe: only Russian and Ukraine women can become members, and only foreign men can have a subscription here. No Russian men on this site.</li>
</ul>
<p>Having considered all the options, it is clear that Loversplanet.com is the destination of choice when it comes to finding an international or Russian wife thousands of miles away. Sign up today and meet the international or Russian woman who would bring you the marital joy and happiness you desire.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-212" src="http://www.loversplanet.com/russian-brides-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/russian-dating-russian-women.jpg" alt="Russian dating women" width="229" height="179" />Russian dating, or for that matter, international dating of any kind has its advantages as well as disadvantages. A lot of men find themselves discouraged due to the the challenges of international dating, and linger in search of an ideal woman from their own country. But there is no need for despair. Here are a few of the concerns examined, and then the very real benefits of <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/russian-brides-blog/dating-beautiful-russian-girls-made-simple/" title="Dating Russian bride or woman"  target="_blank">Russian dating or international dating </a>listed out.</p>
<p><span id="more-211"></span><br />
Let us first discuss a few of the perceived problems:</p>
<p><strong>Russian Dating or Dating Internationally Means Traveling Long Distances<br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Many Western men think that it is too much to have to travel long distances to meet your future bride. But the expense and trouble will be worth your while when you meet an ideal woman. The best way of looking at it is as a wise investment in a lifetime of happiness.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><br />
Communication Problems with International or Russian Women </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Many Western men do not seek dates outside their country because they are put off by the language barrier. What they need to realize is that a lot of international and Russian women now speak English. It is also easy and powerfully motivating to learn a new language to be able to speak with a partner.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><br />
Visa and Citizenship Problems with International or Russian Women<br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>While most Western men are not too happy with the paperwork involved in marrying a Russian woman, the fact is that there are a lot of agencies which specialize in helping with just such cases. Visa and citizenship issues are easily resolved if love ties you to an international or Russian woman.</li>
</ul>
<p>The major reasons why Western men should go for International or Russian dating are:<br />
<strong><br />
International or Russian Women are Beautiful and Accommodating</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>A difference in culture with the West keeps Russian women more beautiful and better groomed. A natural inclination towards making a family make them extremely nurturing wives.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>International or Russian Women Offer More Choice</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The biggest reason for you to go for international or Russian dating is that your dating pool becomes much larger when you go international. You can really choose and pick on your selection of a suitable life partner, because of the wider options available.</li>
</ul>
<p>At Loversplanet.com we understand and emphasize the value of international or Russian dating. It is an option that a lot of Western men tend to ignore because they are unaware of how beautiful and effective an international or Russian dating experience can be. Sign up today at Loversplanet.com and meet the international or Russian women who are incredibly attractive as well as caring.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img border="0" vspace="2" align="left" width="200" src="http://www.loversplanet.com/russian-brides-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/ukraine-online-dating-website.jpg" hspace="4" alt="ukraine online dating website" height="140" />Ukrainian politics may be a bit of a mess right now, with many questions about how close the country should be to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_putin"  rel="nofollow">Vladimir Putin</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitry_Medvedev"  rel="nofollow">Dmitry Medevdev&#8217;s</a> Russia, but these are the growing pains of a fledgling constitutional republic, and democracy can be rough sometimes. Uncertainty in the country is causing a lot of Russian and Ukraine women within the borders to consider finding love and marriage elsewhere. Combine the unrest with the fact that there are more than 10% more women than men in Ukraine, and you&#8217;ve got a situation where Ukraine girls, who are often very beautiful and desirable to western men, are seeking love in places like the United States, Canada, and Great Britain.</p>
<p>The next step in international dating is the question: how can we meet one another? What is the best Ukraine online dating website?<br />
<span id="more-116"></span><br />
It&#8217;s important to find a site that, first of all, has a lot of beautiful women on it that have signed up on their own, not through some other agency. Check out our <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/simple/search.php" >Ukraine women search engine</a> and have a look at some of the women on our site. Most of them are verified by telephone, so there&#8217;s less risk going through other agencies.</p>
<p>Trust is a big component in a Ukraine online dating website. It&#8217;s best to go with sites like LoversPlanet that charge a <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/reg.php" >flat rate for membership</a> and won&#8217;t stick you with any surprise requests of payment.</p>
<p>Take a look at our Russian and Ukraine women from Kiev, Kharkov, and Odessa, and don&#8217;t forget to check out Russian women as well, from places like Moscow and St. Petersburg.</p>
<p>If you have any more questions about Ukraine dating, drop LoversPlanet <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/contact.php" >customer care</a> a line and we&#8217;ll get back to you soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="96" src="http://www.loversplanet.com/russian-brides-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/02151909-862.thumbnail.jpg" hspace="5" alt="Photo of Russian Woman" height="128" />The Internet dating revolution is only in its infancy, and already there has been much success. The remarkable part about it is that people from all across the world now have a way to come together and get to know one another. All of this was impossible not so long ago.</p>
<p>This evolution in dating has most importantly allowed people with shared values to communicate across oceans and borders. Now that all of this is possible, the question is asked by many, how to meet Russian women online?<br />
<span id="more-76"></span><br />
While many say that Internet dating is impersonal and flawed, there are so many aspects of it that make it <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/online-dating/" >far more preferable</a> than the usual ways people meet one another. First of all, there is a screening process on LoversPlanet.com that helps take away the guesswork in deciding if the person you are meeting shares your values and beliefs. This is not something you&#8217;ll find trolling the bars. Also, since often the person is not in your area, your relationship begins with honest and open communication. Whether you&#8217;re talking on the phone or exchanging emails about yourself, the foundation of the relationship is based on discussing the aspects of your lives that are most important to you.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s obvious that Russian brides have the dedication to family and lasting relationships that so many men find lacking and wish to learn more about. So, you&#8217;re asking the question of how to meet russian women online? The answer is LoversPlanet.com.</p>

<p>However, you&#8217;re not alone.  Many Ukrainian and Russian women feel the same way about the men from their countries.  In their case, Russian and Ukrainian men are not compatible with them, so they look elsewhere.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Q:</strong> I am inquiring about mail order wife. I want very much to be married, what are the steps going forward? Thank you.</p>
<p><strong>A:</strong> Finding a wife online is very similar to meeting someone special in real life – it requires a strategy and, more importantly, it requires making an effort. Internet and online dating is merely a medium that facilitates the process of meeting other singles. It is important to understand that it does not provide a magic solution.</p>
<p><span id="more-18"></span>Mail order brides are often seen as a product, whereby you can literally pay for a bride online and have it delivered to you by mail. Does it make sense? Surely it doesn’t! An international dating service can provide you with the tools to find a wife, overcoming the geographical boundaries and cultural barriers. One thing a dating site cannot do is to send you marriage by mail, irrespective of the price you are willing to pay.</p>
<p>In this sense the concepts of “mail order bride” and “mail order wife” are incorrect by definition. You have to make an effort to find a suitable partner and develop a relationship yourself. Each relationship is different and the time required to go from the starting point to the actual marriage is different.</p>
<p>Below you will find some common sense steps that can be part of a successful strategy and will help you find a Russian wife and subsequently develop a relationship that will lead to marriage.</p>
<p><strong>1. Start with finding a reputable dating service</strong></p>
<p>If you do some research on Google you will find plenty of advice on what makes a dating service reputable. Beware, however, to focus on the right indicators.</p>
<p>For example, a telephone number and address printed on the website are important, but a service that merely includes contact information may not be good at delivering results. Things that may be more important are the site’s testimonials section, photographs of other members who have succeeded in finding a relationship on that specific dating site. See a good example of this here: <a href="http://www.loversplanet.com/testimonials.php"  target="_blank" title="Russian Dating Success Stories">Russian Dating Success Stories</a>.</p>
<p>Most dating websites use general images of couples. These images can easily be bought from various professional photo resellers. These are not actual couples. It is usually possible to tell a difference by looking at these photos – if they look too professional, they may not be real. It is a good idea to ask the dating service if you can get in contact with any of the members listed in their testimonials section. While a reputable dating service is unlikely to provide you with direct contact information, they may contact a specific (ex-) member and ask this member to contact you. That is, of course, if the members mentioned in their testimonials are real.</p>
<p>Every testimonial on Loversplanet.com is genuine. If you are willing to contact any of the members, we can ask them to discuss their experience with you directly.</p>
<p><strong>2. Avoid traditional marriage agencies</strong></p>
<p>Most traditional marriage agencies act as a middle man in a potential relationship. They are biased to making your communication as lengthy as possible because they make money from translation and other related services such as letter forwarding services. You would have to pay for these services because you don&#8217;t get to contact women directly &#8211; they are not online! Would you want all your correspondence to be read and forwarded by a third party? Are you sure that their translation is a good reflection of your messages? And, most importantly, at some point in time you will have to communicate directly – you are very likely to be starting a completely new relationship with someone, it turns out, you barely know&#8230;</p>
<p>At Loversplanet.com every member is required to post a dating profile personally. We do not provide letter translation or letter forwarding services – you are communicating directly with the other person. This removes the surprise factor from your relationship in the future. All female members are required to provide a personal statement in English and send initial messages in English. This means they need to have at least basic understanding of English or be willing to learn and make an effort to communicate in your language from the beginning. Experience shows, that language barriers can be a negative factor in developing a relationship and we strongly advice you to start your communication in English. Learning Russian can also be a fun experience provided your future Russian wife gives you a hand.</p>
<p><strong>3. Use a dating service that markets their services directly to female members</strong></p>
<p>Unlike Loversplanet.com, many online dating websites use local marriage agencies to market their services to Eastern European women. This has some advantages, for example, local agencies with local presence are less attractive targets for scammers. However, there are numerous cases of scam involving major (reputable) dating services that work with local marriage agencies. This happens because local marriage agencies are often small companies that are themselves involved in scam and fraud. Any reputable dating service working with hundreds of local agencies inevitably faces a problem of control and supervision of these divisions that are outside their own business.</p>
<p>In addition, the more companies you have between you and your Russian bride, the more expensive it is to carry out communication and search for a wife. Not to mention that it is extremely time consuming: as you wait for your messages to be translated and then forwarded, you or your partner may become discouraged to proceed with a relationship.</p>
<p><strong>4. Create a free dating profile and start communicating</strong></p>
<p>Once you are comfortable with the dating service the first most important step is to complete free registration and submit your photographs. A free profile will be created that will include your personal statement, your interests and general information about you. Posting a profile is important because thousands of Russian women registered on the website will be able to find you and look at your information and photos. Photos substantially increase the likelihood of your profile to be found and influence directly your response rate.</p>
<p>Russian women that are interested in you can add your dating profile to their Hot List or send you a message. On Loversplanet.com all services for Russian women are free. All Eastern European women can contact you without a subscription.</p>
<p>As a free member you can see those female members that have added you to their Hot List or simply viewed your dating profile. This makes your search considerably easier as you can now choose from a few dozen Russian brides that are actually interested in you, rather than thousands of women registered on the website.</p>
<p><strong>5. Get a subscription</strong></p>
<p>When you identify one or two Russian ladies that have a potential to become your future wife, you may proceed to purchase a subscription. Subscription allows you to send non-standard messages. These messages are not censored and you can exchange contact information. Loversplanet.com does not sell or disclose members’ contact information. There are no “per message fees”. Contact information can only become available to specific members if you provide it in your messages.</p>
<p>Choosing a subscription package is entirely up to you. Some members on Loversplanet.com have found a partner within a few weeks after purchasing a 1 month subscription. Others used this dating service for several months. We would recommend getting at least 3 months subscription package to make sure you have enough time to find a wife. More cost-effective options are 6 and 12 months subscription packages.</p>
<p><strong>6. Take time to get to know your Russian wife</strong></p>
<p>You can then proceed with your communication using a regular email service. You can exchange phone numbers and make phone calls. With companies like Skype, international calling is not as expensive as it used to be in the past. Take time to get to know your Russian wife and exchange as many photographs as possible. Ask a lot of questions, find out as much as you can about your future partner, her lifestyle and attitudes before you decide to meet in person.</p>
<p><strong>7. Beware of scammers</strong></p>
<p>Avoid sending money to anyone you meet online. At Loversplanet.com we have developed the most advanced anti-scam policies in the industry. However, no policy can be fool-proof. Credit card companies and banks invest substantial sums of money to fight credit card fraud, however, we still hear about identity theft almost daily. As long as there is a market for scam and fraud, scam artists will exists and look for ways to overcome anti-scam policies. To protect yourself, use common sense and never send money to someone you hardly know. If you do decide to help a lady with traveling abroad to meet you, please use a local licensed travel agent in your country and send the tickets in her name, not cash. If you have questions about travel visas, contact the local consulate of the foreign country. The best option, however, is to visit the lady as in many cases it would be difficult for a single lady to obtain a travel visa.</p>
<p><strong>8. Travel to Russia to meet your Russian bride</strong></p>
<p>If you are serious about getting married and you are determined to take further steps, visiting the lady in Russia is the best option. Do not expect the lady to come and visit you in US, Canada, UK or any other country. There are several reasons for that:</p>
<ul>
<li>In most cases men are expected to pay for travel. This exposes you to scam risk which is impossible to avoid completely. A lot of men are looking into ways of making sure the lady they are willing to invite over is legitimate – it is impossible to predict any person’s intentions in a setting where you are sending cash. Even a legitimate lady can simply change her mind.</li>
<li>It is very difficult for a single Eastern European lady to obtain a travel visa to a major foreign country such as US, UK, Canada, etc. If the lady does not have an extensive track record of traveling abroad, does not own property and does not have a well paid job – she is unlikely to be approved for a travel visa. Beware of females who claim that they have obtained the visa already – this trick is often used by scammers. Contact a local consulate for more help.</li>
</ul>
<p>Travel visa issue becomes less of a problem after you visit the lady in her own country. Depending on where you come from, you will have several options to proceed with making travel arrangements for your Russian wife. For example you can apply for a fiancée visa which requires that you meet your bride at least once before you submit application (USA). You can also visit your country’s local Embassy with the lady &#8211; it may help to demonstrate that the lady anticipates traveling with you.</p>
<p>Consider traveling to Russia! Find the time to build your relationship and create a family. Isn&#8217;t it worth it? Among other things, Russia is a wonderful country to visit – it has fascinating history and major cultural heritage. It also has a well-developed infrastructure for tourism. You will find a great variety of hotel accommodation and restaurants to accommodate any budget. And finally, you will be able to meet a lot of beautiful, marriage-minded Russian girls! This is important if you do not find a suitable match on Loversplanet.com, which is highly unlikely of course! If you are willing to find a Russian wife you are at the right place.</p>
