One thing they are not happy about is evident self-interest - when the ladies try to obtain money "for a visa", "for a sick child", "for medical treatment for the mother", even for "debts to Russian mafia". American candidates also complain about Russian mail order brides making multiple copies of the same letter to send to different overseas correspondents. Many are alarmed by too good-looking photos, by hyperactive correspondence, by excessive delight with America and the candidate himself. Finally, they suspect that it is really scammers-men writing to them, not women at all. The USA is running out of trusting Romeos.
Summing it all up, it is possible to find an overseas partner. If you do not believe - go to an agency, and you will get a bunch of letters. Now the question arises - why are you actually looking for this overseas prince?
"Getting married, I will have nothing to fear"
Fortunately, the majority of mail order brides are looking for female happiness. It is usually girls from the country or from small industrial cities, where there are too few potential marriage options, who try to begin dating a foreigner. In these places, there are too few real men - educated, intelligent, financially secure. Actually, "few" is the mild word for it - we had better say there are none at all. Even if there is one, he would be terribly proud of his position. He changes girlfriends like crazy - this one is wrong, and so is this one. The choice is huge.
A girl would look at this and make the conclusion: almost everyone in her environment either does not fit in with her status (simple drinking hard-working people), or had enough of female attention. The more quick-witted one thinks that she needs to learn the languages and get the hell out of the country as soon as possible. There she would be appreciated for real.
