This site is like Disney World for dating... 99.9% illusion. I have been to Ukraine three times. The culture is one of scams and deceit. I really like many people I met in my three trips to Odessa and plan to return for vacations but, I will not put any more money into the hands of the agencies who use the women as much as they take advantage of the lonely men looking for love. Sad for all concerned.

There is a good chance that the person you are chatting with is not the woman in the photo. Men and women who speak English are sitting at the agency office using the girls profile to make money. I have been on the site for a year and have travelled to Odessa three times. Each time was the same: Girls take two or three days to finally meet you... then they bring an interpreter who wants $20.00 per hour... then they get a kick back from the restaurant. Great if you want a fantasy... not so good if you are sincere. I could tell many stories about what I learned but, you will probably need to discover this yourself... good luck.
