If you are planning to marry a beautiful Russian bride and going to share the news with your acquaintances, most likely you will get their negative feedback. You might hear, “She will use you to get abroad. Once she is married and gets her green card in the States, she will get rid of you.”
For your information, Russian ladies look for potential husbands in many places: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Scandinavia, Western Europe, etc. They would rather prefer immigrating to Europe than America, because Europe is not so far from Russia and trips back and forth are more affordable. In addition, Russia has much more in common with European life and culture than with America.
Nevertheless, when a Russian lady wants to find her lifetime partner, the country has nothing to do with it. She will follow the guy wherever he lives.
By the way, Russian women looking for husbands abroad also get negative reactions from their own environment.
What are the roots of the negative reactions? - Usually ignorance and cynicism about anything in the world. A cynical person can make negative comments about major things in life that are valuable for other people. Sometimes they are true and sound funny because nobody is perfect. But that is exactly the reason why so many people are hopeful to find better partners. After all, what is more important to you, your relationship with the woman you love, or worrying about what other people think about you?
