Questions & Answers

Q: How recent is your web site?

A:  The data on our web site is updated weekly. Women who are engaged, married or no longer available are removed within one week of the day that we learn that they have become unavailable.

Q: How are the ladies addresses delivered to me?

A. American women can have attitudes that are difficult to deal with. They are often demanding and hard to please. Russian women on the other hand are so unspoiled. In many less-developed countries, like countries of the former Soviet Union, women have a much lower social status than men. Russian men are often abusive and disrespectful toward women. This is what Russian women are used to. Compared to that, the life you can give her will make her so happy and grateful. Russian women tend to be devoted adoring wives.

In western societies women have an equal status to men, as it should be. Russian women see American men as kind, sensitive, respectful, understanding, compassionate and dependable, and for the most part American men are this way. Many American women take these qualities in American men for granted. However, because of what Russian women are used to, they will never take these qualities for granted. These qualities make American men very appealing to Russian women.

A:  It's almost impossible to obtain a tourist visa for these ladies. However if you travel to Russia & decide to get married, you can bring your lady to the US on a K-1 visa or Fiancée Visa. This type of visa allows your lady to stay in the US for the period of 3 months. At the end of the 3 month period you either have to get married, or the lady has to return to her home country. There are no extensions on the Fiancée Visa. More info.

Some men are concerned that the lady might just be interested in US citizenship when looking for a foreign husband. Becoming a US citizen in a very long process. About 6 months after you are married, you need to appear for an interview with the Immigration & Naturalization Service (INS). The goal of the interview is to prove to the INS that your marriage is legitimate. After this interview the lady will receive a temporary green-card. In another 2 years you will have to appear again for the second interview & only then will your wife receive a permanent green card.

A. Perhaps the best evidence that Russian women make good wives and life companions is the low divorce rate between American men and Russian women. According to data supplied by the United States Census Bureau and the Dept. of Immigration and Naturalization (INS), the divorce rate for marriages between American men and American women is 48%, and the divorce rate for marriages between American men and foreign women is 20% (see INS website). This is probably a good indication of the general happiness of American men married to Russian women. Russian women also don’t mind marrying a Western man who is much older than they are.

Russian women wishing to marry Western men tend to be a cut above the average Russian woman. They tend to be better educated and know at least some English. They have taken the initiative to learn English and learn how to use the Internet. There are so many more Russian women wishing to marry Western men that if you desire a thin, attractive, well educated woman who knows English and has no children, or any other set of exacting requirements, you can probably find one. For any man considering life with a Russian woman, it is well worth corresponding with a few to become familiar with this possibility.

Q: Why are Russian women so beautiful?

A. According to the United States National Institutes of Health (NIH) , just over half of American women are overweight or obese. The findings of a 1998 study are that 25.7% of American women over 20 years of age are overweight and an additional 25% are obese.

Russian women in contrast are rarely overweight. They seem more concerned with their appearance. Russians do not have a lot of the high-fat convenience foods we have. They tend to eat more whole foods, whole grain breads and in general lower-fat diets. Most Russians cannot afford cars and must walk most places they go. Very attractive women are very common in countries of the Former Soviet Union

Q: How do you rate English Ability? 

A: The ladies English ability on our site is rated from able to write a letter with a dictionary being the lowest to fluent English being the highest, with some English and good English in between. Often times the ladies have a good grasp of written English but are ashamed to try to speak it or speak it poorly simply because they have not had the opportunity to practice speaking English. Another factor is that the ladies are usually very well educated and tend to be very fast learners. The bottom line is that the language barrier, if any is usually overcome very quickly. Keep in mind when calling the ladies that it is much harder to talk over the telephone than it is to communicate face to face. We have seen many men find communication a lot easier than they thought it would be after speaking to ladies on the phone. When they meet the ladies in person they find it much easier.

Q: How do women join A Special Lady?

A: We advertise our services in Russian newspapers & magazines, but we publish very few ladies who join us this way. Instead we prefer to work with a wide network of Russian-based marriage agencies. We work with agencies from all over Russian, Ukraine and other former USSR States, selecting the best ladies they have as clients & featuring them in our catalogs & websites. It gives us the following advantages: 

The owners of these agencies know all women personally & we can be sure that the women we present are sincerely interested in finding a partner.  The owners of this agencies actively participate in organizing our tours, are present at the socials & can tell you more information about each lady you meet.  The owners also stay in touch with the women & notify us immediately of the address changes, engagements, etc., so that our database is always up to date.  We also accept women with the referral from a lady/gentlemen who used our services before. We meet most of the ladies in person during our Romance Tours. Because we meet most of them, and because our staff verifies every new lady to be posted on our site we help you before you begin by screening out ladies that are may not be honest of serious. Other agencies allow any women to list their information on their site. You cannot be sure if the lady is real or if it is even her pictures that you are seeing. Beginning the process of finding a Russian Brides in this manner can be dangerous and damaging to your relationship with the lady if she is for real. There will come a time when you are going to have to find out if the lady is for real or not, if she is for real the process of finding out for sure can damage you relationship with her. We do charge the women to join our services. 

Q: What kind of response can I hope for?

A: To enjoy a good response rate: Be realistic in your choices. 
Do not limit yourself to writing 1-2 ladies, especially the most attractive ones. 
Write women who will fit into your lifestyle. If you live in the country, far away from larger cities avoid writing to the ladies who list their hobbies as theater, fashions, etc. Instead write to ones who enjoy nature, animals, may be gardening & outdoor activities. 
Pay attention to the advice we give you in "Writing Letters" section. 
Write to 15-20 women, place your ad in our Gentlemen's Catalog, and you will get responses. It's all about exposure. The more contacts you make the better are your chances of finding somebody you like, who also thinks you are special.

Q: What is you refund policy?

A:  All sales are final.  All addresses are current and verified. We guarantee our services confidential, reliable and accurate. If any of the mailing addresses are undeliverable within 30 days of the purchase, we will replace it with the address of a different lady of your choice. We cannot offer this guarantee for e-mail addresses when the lady has other contact information because we have found that this information changes so frequently we cannot keep up with it. If the lady has only an Email address and it does not work we will replace it with a new lady of your choice.

Q: How can I correspond with these women ?

A: First communication is typically by regular mail or e-mail. We offer three way calling with great rates and an interpreter if you would like. We also have mail forwarding services to speed up the delivery of your letter and to make sure it gets to your lady.
