Reasons why Russian girls look for foreign husbands

If you search for “Russian girls looking for foreign husbands”, you will get hundreds of dating, matchmaking and marriage sites. Why these well-educated and beautiful ladies are looking for husband outside Russia?

First reason of this growing tendency is hidden in the social factors. In Russia there is a much higher number of females than males and every year this difference is increasing. By statistics, women here outlive men on an average of 12 years.

Most of girls in Russia get married at a very early age. The girls, who were busy with their education or making a career and didn’t get married by 25-30 years old, do not have much choice left. The men who are still available in their 30’s and 40’s are already married or simply not interested in serious relationships and marriage.

Another reason is the low quality of Russian men. Most of Russian girls, even those who have no plans for leaving their country and marrying abroad, consider their Russian men irresponsible and insecure. The population discrepancy mentioned above, and a huge number of beautiful, smart, available young women made men here chauvinistic and spoilt. They take a full advantage of their scarcity, treating girls badly and with no respect and yet, still get to find a wonderful woman to marry.

Refusing to accept this painful destiny, many girls apply for Internet dating, hoping to find a suitable husband to start a family with. They find foreign men more responsible, family-oriented, sensitive, caring, and they are sure foreign men make better husbands and fathers. These girls like to be treated with respect, love and appreciation, what they lack to find in their local men.

Quotes from the web:

- I have many friends in the Russian community in my home city and some of the russian girls there met their husbands online and are now very happy together in their new life.

- Russian girls want the following:

1- They want a man who is stable and financially secure. Someone able to support his family comfortably - that doesn't mean (rich).
2- They want a man who will treat his wife as an intelligent and equal mate. If you don't know what I mean by this, then culturally you won't survive with a Russian girl. Think "1950's relationships" in the US.
3- They want a man who will respect them, love them, not harm them, and treat them kindly.
4- They want a man who will lead the family, but not dictate it (again, you need to know what I mean to survive culturally together).
