Man of Her Dreams


She was walking along the river holding an enormous bunch of red and golden leaves in her hand. It was autumn. The eighteenth autumn she met alone in this old park. The sky was so dark that she could feel the air trembling with fear for the approaching thunderstorm. She sat on the old shaky bench where not long ago she wrote some words - “Hi, I’m Helen”. Now she was not in the mood to inspect the surface of the bench. She was just sitting and tearing off the red and golden leaves and pushing them into the cold water. She felt the deepest loneliness inside her heart…

The first heavy drops began falling on the ground the wind grew colder and stronger…and she was the part of this tragedy. Suddenly her thin fingers felt some new scratches on the surface of the bench. She looked closer and saw a new word just under her own – “Hi”! Oh, she was so surprised…”Who could he be?”, – she thought (and she was sure that it was “he”). She was sitting in the rain getting wet and dreaming about this stranger who wrote her so little and gave her so much. Of course he was tall and handsome with blue eyes and dark hair, wearing a black overcoat and black jeans. Naturally he was the best man in the world – they loved each other, they never argued, they had the same interests… That was the man of her dreams, who wrote only one word and received the whole heart of the young lady in the cold autumn evening.

How to approach Russian women?


How to approach Russian women?
Russian women differ a lot from women of other nationalities. First of all they consider themselves to be self-confident, intelligent and caring. Sometimes it’s really a challenge to approach a Russian woman, but of course there exist some basic “rules” that can help you to get acquainted and start relations with them. Russian women pay a lot of attention to the appearance of a man – e.g. clothes, hair and mannerisms. So,
1) Be neat, smile and don’t use many gestures during conversation.
The next thing is conversation.
2) The best place initially is a restaurant. Russian women generally like to be treated equally with men and they can talk about politics, the economy, sport and many other serious topics. They are very well versed and they always have their own point of view. At all times they are ready to discuss topics for hours just to highlight their intelligence.
As with other women, Russians like compliments and attention.
3) However the volume of compliments should not be too large. A Russian woman is like a little girl – if she receives flowers from somebody or hears a compliment, she blushes because of natural shyness, although she knows that she is worthy of it. That’s why a small bunch of nice flowers will often do much more than other actions.
What about caring?
4) A Russian woman is a kind of woman who combines many people in one – she is a sister, a wife, a mother and a friend all at the same time. She likes to give pieces of advice – connecting with food, clothes, health and so on. Let her demonstrate this side of her nature, yet on the other hand, she wishes to be taken care of. If it’s cold, for instance, you should always offer your jacket. Chivalry is alive and well with Russian women and you should not forget this.
Russian women are very kind and they love pets – mainly cats.
5) It’s not important to buy her a cat though. You can tell her about your pet or ask what kind of animals she likes. The fact that a man likes animals will emphasize his kindness.
And the last but most important thing!
6) When the meeting comes to an end and you exchange your phone numbers, be aware that Russian woman will never be the first ones who will call.
