My Online Matchmaking Hobby: One Marriage Per Year!
Jim from USA and Olya from Ukraine, married in 2008
So, How I Became An Online Matchmaker?
If you are lonely man and you would like to find the woman of your life, you will look for her everywhere, it does not matter, whether it is: the closest bar or online dating site. Bars might be a good idea, but chances are better using an online service. Why? It is because the Internet gives you much more opportunities to meet the right person for you. Usually a membership in an online dating agency would cost the same money as spent by you in one night in bar. How many nights do you think you need to spend in bars until you meet Her? But if you bought a membership on a dating site, your chances to find your One and Only are increased many times, because so many women are also looking for their perfect match. And so much scam there too, you can say… OK, there are two good tips for you.
First, you will be okay, if you will pick a right dating service. The policies of an agency determine what kind of people sign up for their services. A company that actually can verify information provided by the people that sign up for their services would be the most reliable one to use.
Second, learning from other people’s experiences is a sure way to get good results. By reading stories of successful marriages, it will help you make the right decisions in finding a partner for a good friendship which may lead to marriage. Don’t be afraid of taking chances, by having a good preparation and knowing what to look for, you will increase the chances of getting an ideal mate.
Well, look at me. I am a Ukrainian woman-journalist. I worked for Ukrainian newspapers and online news agencies for many years. I was always too busy building my career and making money that I almost missed the opportunity to achieve my personal happiness.
It was time to do something about this… I signed up to several online dating services to seek a mate, but with no success. One day I discovered the online dating service that changed my life and went on to getting married within a short time. The dating service did provide good information on how to find a good match. Then few women, friends of mine, asked me for help in finding husbands. So, this is the way in which I got my hobby of online matchmaker. It is now my passion... and in the past 4 years (2006-2009) my efforts have matched up 6 couples which have led to 4 international marriages (included mine :), all with the help of just one good online dating service!
And do you know what? I knew immediately that THIS ONE will really work! Why? It is because I found lots of testimonials from ex-customers of the website, I saw more than hundred pictures of happy couples which met on the website, and I knew: yes, this is the one! What else I liked about this website is that they post real first names of people. Using real names of the customers is more serious than displaying just their nicknames.
So, now I am happy to tell you more details about the results of my matchmaking activities on this website:
one friend of mine, a wonderful Ukrainian woman, is married to a British man;
my best friend, a woman from Ukraine, is now married to an American man;
another friend of mine, a gorgeous Ukrainian woman (she was my bridesmaid) is married to an American man;
and myself, I am married to a Canadian man.
All of us, four international couples, are doing very well! I would like each of you to be as successful as we were to find a good relationship.
I am very grateful to this online dating website, which helped to find four amazing guys for us, four women from a small Ukrainian city. Finding my husband was a real adventure; it did take several attempts to find the right person for me. So don't expect a perfect match right away. It may happen quickly or it may take years, but what fun you can have in the search! There was not a single day that I was disappointed; even though things did not work out sometimes... I never gave up. It took me a few years of searching before I met my One and Only, but with my experience, it was a lot easier finding good matches for my friends. Now I share my knowledge of successful online dating with everyone who wants to know more about how to find a really good match on the internet and to be happy.
Looking For Slavic Girls: Two Men’s Fears
I know that usually two things make men afraid of using international dating services: a money scam and a language barrier.
Money scammers are women which ask men to send money for some needs such as “illnesses of relatives”, “to pay for travel visa to visit you”, “to pay for the Internet to communicate with you” etc. Lots of men believe their distant women friends are telling the truth, so they send money, and after that their beauties simply disappear. It is not always women that do the scamming; sometimes a dishonest man will create profiles of Slavic girls and will put pictures of beautiful Ukrainian or Russian models, actresses or singers to the profiles. He also writes letters to the men like from a real girl. Those letters are full of “sincere feeling” and, of course, money asking, so western men who get this letter, have no idea that their “girls” do not exist at all. The Internet is full of such kind of reports, so before you start to correspond with a Slavic beauty, you better check the black lists of women scammers.
Well, now back to my experience. I will tell you absolutely opposite stories about Ukrainian women who do not even know that the word “scam” exists and what it means. They are my women friends whom I have helped and are presently helping to find their soul mates on the Internet.
One of them had already started correspondence with her future husband (but she did not know yet he will be her husband :). Some emergency situation randomly happened to her and she was REALLY in needed of money, six hundreds dollars. But she did not tell a word about it to her distant western friend! She had to borrow the money, and she took an additional job to be able to pay this loan back, but her soul mate did not know anything about it! He found about her hardship by accident, from other people, when he was already the fiancé of this woman.
Speaking about scammers, which are asking for money “to pay for the Internet”… You know, one of my friends did not even have a computer at home, so she went to an Internet café EVERY DAY to write to her distant boyfriend. I can imagine how much money she spent for it but she NEVER EVER asked her future husband to send her money neither for getting a computer nor for paying for the Internet. Another one my friend did not have a computer at home too, but she bought one and she got the Internet to her apartment, because she knew it is a good investment in her future personal happiness.
Well, our husbands are fortunate that they met us :) What it means is, they knew where to search, on which website. Now we are recommending this website to every man who wants to find a wife in Ukraine.
OK, what about another men’s fear of using international dating services? I mean a language barrier. You know, if English language would be a main criterion for our husband in searching good wives, our guys even would not start looking for Ukrainian girls.
Back to our experience. When one friend of mine started to correspond with her future English-speaking husband, she did not know English AT ALL. So, she used an online translator for her letters to him. The translation was horrible, with lots of mistakes in those letters, but the future husband of my friend recognized a very good girl with a big heart, even with all the grammar errors. Also this friend of mine started to take English lessons on the beginning of her correspondence with the distant boyfriend. Actually, she started to learn from zero, and… After just one year of those lessons, she spoke English so well, that we could not believe it! Her spoken English was very good, but she was not proficient in writing yet. But now, after a couple years of living in England, her written English has improved so much.
Another friend of mine which is married to an American man, studied English at school and University, but… she did not get any chance to practice what she studied, until she met her future husband online. Now her English is getting much better.
My personal language experience is quite a story too. My first email letters to my future husband were so full of errors. And when we met face to face for the first time, my spoken English was even worse than my written so we had to chat by writing to each other on a piece of paper. That was in 2006. If somebody would tell me then, that in 2007 I would start my first blog-site in English, I would not have believed it! But it did happen! So, I would like to advise you: do not be scared that your Ukrainian girlfriend knows very little English or she does not know English at all. Look first, what kind of person she is and whether she could fall in love with you. If she does fall in love with you, she will learn your language quickly so do not worry!

Three tips to your profile
1.You better answer all the questions in your profile: about your personality, interests and what kind of person you are looking for.
Many dating websites will ask you to write a personal message, so, if you really want to find a good woman, please do not write a novel, otherwise girls like us will think you are just a big stories teller and nothing more.
But if your personal story will be too short, as one sentence like “I am a great guy”, or if you will decide not to write your personal message at all, serious women will think, you are dull or you got some mental problems. So, one or two paragraphs of your personal message are enough.

2. If you know somebody, who already is happily married to a Ukrainian woman, do not forget to note it in your personal message. It works. Also, if you have any connection to Ukraine (relatives, friends, Ukrainian descent), state that too. It works very well. For example, I knew right away from the personal message of my future husband that his ancestors were Ukrainian and it actually caught my eye and it was one of reasons why I answered him. If you happened to be in Ukraine already, it would be good to say it too in your profile, desirably with a short explanation as to why you have visited Ukraine (traveling, business, visiting relatives); otherwise good women can think you are simply a sex-tourist and that you are not very serious about finding your destiny.
3. In writing your profile, do not forget to answer all the questions about your profession and occupation, otherwise women will think that you are not able to support a family. Of course, you want that your new girlfriend will fall in love with you for your personality and not for your occupation. Believe experience of our husbands, if you really will find a right Ukrainian woman, she will estimate you for your personality first.
But, excuse me, I am sure, your beautiful personality will want to eat something once in while, and personalities of your future wife and children as well, so you better tell in your profile what are you doing for living.
Do not be shy, if you have a simple occupation like bus driver or postman. Say it! Only some very young and naive Slavic girls, without any life experience, may think that all the western men on the dating websites are billionaires. Ukrainian women ages 20-25 understand very well that not everyone can be a Bill Gates.
If you are currently without a job, be honest and put “temporarily unemployed” in your profile. But, of course, you better have a job, because it does cost a fair bit of money to bring a foreign wife to your country; such as the visa expenses, plane tickets, oh my! But, for our husbands’ opinion, all these expenses were worth to bring us to their countries :)

Three tips to your photographs
1. It is the best to have your profile with your picture than without one. At the same time, it is not necessary to publish a whole gallery of your images; just two-three pictures are enough, although one is ok too, if it is really good one. But! Your picture (pictures) better not be when you were 20-30 years old if you are now 40-50 years old. A smart Ukrainian woman will recognize that your photos were taken in 1970’s and 80’s by quality of pictures or by the old fashion in clothes etc. Ukrainian ladies like us simply will not believe that you live in such developed country and you cannot afford a modern picture of good quality. So, if you cannot afford even a good picture for yourself, how will you be able to keep a future family? I do not mean that you necessarily need to go to a professional photographer and pay him for your photo session. On contrary, I am sure that in your archives you have some “live”, dynamic picture of you in real life: where you are doing some sport, where you are traveling, fishing, cooking etc. Also it is not a good idea to publish your picture with your cool car or your house on background: a good woman will not react for such a profile and she will rather think you are showing off what you own and not yourself. Oh, I almost forgot the main thing: please smile on your picture! If you got a great smile, a good Ukrainian woman will not notice your beer belly if you have one :)
2. Speaking about bellies. If you indented to post your half-naked picture in your profile, I would not recommend you do that, even if you have a body of Apollo and you are dying to show it to the pretty girls. Maybe for some another girls it will work, but not for serious and modest Ukrainian ladies like us. Good Ukrainian woman doesn’t choose a man for his body shape; she checks his personality first. Well, guys, can you imagine, what would happen, if women would pick YOU on just how you are picking them: are you good looking or you are not? Guess, who would get a match then? Right, it would be only those of you, which are very handsome. What do the other have to do, the ones who have a big heart, but who do not happen to look like Brad Pitt or George Clooney?
So, if you really want to find a nice woman to build a family with, you better think first of what to write about yourself. Because if you put on your profile the greatest picture of your muscles and zero information at the same time, you will not get a letter from a good woman, you will rather attract a superficial and immature girl.
I also would like you to note that none of girls whom I helped to find a husbands on the dating website had any pictures in their profile taken in a bathing suit but they were very successful in finding a good husband. However, one of the girls asked me at the beginning of her Internet searches, if it will be ok if she will post on her profile one of her pictures which was showing a little bit of her naked waist, between her jeans and sweater? She was a woman of 33 years, divorced, and with a child! Isn’t it saying something about high qualities of women you can find too if you will follow my advices?

3. Another “don’t” in choosing of your photos for your dating profile: a picture where you “cut off” from somebody else, especially from a woman! It is very bad idea. During my Internet searches for a partner I saw some divorced men’s profiles with their ex-wedding photos: they just cut off the ex-brides (wives) from themselves on the pictures, and that’s it. They were probably thinking that a whole bunch of love thirsty Ukrainian beauties would be happy to see this. One time I found a profile of guy with his wedding photo where he didn’t even cut off his ex-wife from the picture: he just cut a hole where her head was. Really!!! Why to make everything so complicated? Welcome new bride to this vacant place!
I would like to explain to you guys: when a good Ukrainian woman notices another woman’s hand on your shoulder (even if it is in the picture), you will NEVER get a letter from her, you will rather get from someone who is a scammer. Scammers usually do not care for any other women’s fingers with manicure on your hand, because scammer’s goal is your money, but not your hand and your heart.

Ukrainian Girls Really Knock World Out!
A lot of poems, songs and novels describe an incredible beauty of Ukrainian women. But a one man in this world wrote just two sentences… and he said everything in those two lines. Paul McCartney the legendary “Beatle”: “Ukraine girls really knock me out. They leave the west behind”. I think, this is the best world’s saying about Ukrainian women. Ever.
P.S.
There are beautiful girls and women from the Western Ukraine on this slide show. Six of them are happily married: three of them met their husbands online on this website.
“Solovij Halychyny” (“Nightingales of Halychyna”) the vocal trio of the Ternopil Philarmonic Society is singing on a background of the video.
