To This by far is the safest site for guy to find someone..., With all the honesty I can portray in this world my... You never know until you try, I was somewhat skeptical about this site having read..., I have met some very beautiful women on this site, and everyone else

I just returned from a 3 week visit to Ukraine, it is a Great place to visit, relax, and explore. I spent the May Holidays in Odessa with friends, and traveled to Kharkov, and Kiev as well. The local currency is the UAH, Today it is worth half the value from past years, So for americans, it is a great exchange rate at better than 21 to one. The UAH for locals is terrible, because Ukraine citizen only earn half of what they need during this poor economy.

I would encourage anyone who uses these Dating sites to stop spending your hard earned money buying Credits, sending letters, and answering Chat requests. If you really want to meet a Beautiful Ukraine woman, go to Ukraine. Airfare purchased in advance can cost as little as $850 - $950.00 round trip, Hotels and apartments average about $24 - $55.00 USD per day, and expenses are cheap. The average cab ride should only be about $120 UAH which is only $6.00 USD to most destinations, just a few more UAH from the airport. When you are in Kiev just Dial ( 310) from a local (+380) Ukraine cell phone, and a Taxi service will call you right back, give them ( or have someone close by give the taxi service your current pick up location and destination address). The Taxi service will text you the Drivers Vehicle type, make and color, the license plate, and sometimes the drivers name and number, but most important, they will also text you the exact Cab fare for the ride. Taxi cabs at the airport will charge you as much as humanly possible, usually 2 to 4 times more, taxis are not metered or regulated. If you are in a different city, just ask a local for the Taxi service phone number, Do Not Ask Hotels, concierge or restaurants for a Taxi, because they will all refer you to a Taxi that charges and pays commissions.

In Ukraine, everyone will charge you (the tourist) more for everything, it is a way of life. Everything is commission based, especially Hotels and restaurants, so dont expect a friendly smile and helpful assist to be cheaper.

Back to my main point, Not All Dating sites are a scam, they are just a portal to Millions of scammers who become opportunists. I have used AnastasiaDate.com and I have attended 2 amazing Socials. They do not offer socials anymore because of the Russian conflict there. I learned that the Letters, Credits and Chat are the biggest waste of money! The tour was expensive, but it was a great first hand learning experience, maybe the Best Vacation I have ever experienced. My second visit to Ukraine was 10 times cheaper because I booked everything myself, and I only paid AnastasiaDate for the Social mixer that I attended. In a Nutshell, the socials were at Nightclubs, or in a Park/ Spa setting and the ratio was roughly 7 women to every guy. The numbers were Great, the women were out for a good time, and open to talk ( not Chat for credits).

Attending a Social is 100 times better than sitting at your computer keyboard!

Ukraine women come from many different local cities, Oblast, and suburbs to attend these socials, it is rather amazing. AnastasiaDate provides FREE interpreters during the 5-6 hour mixers, the Interpreters are usually young College Students or Agency Interpreters. During the Socials, AnastasiaDate provides Great resources to protect its paying clients, after the Socials, it is more every man for themselves, and every interpreter for herself.

If there is just one lesson learned here, it is this find your self just one Trustworthy, Honest interpreter that you know that you can trust. During the Socials these interpreters are bound by Agency Rules, but after the mixer they can openly and Honestly tell you the truth behind the partner Agencies ( there are hundreds of local agencies). Anastasia has no control or oversight over all the many agencies across Russia and Ukraine. If the interpreter is Honest with you, you will quickly learn some painful truths about the Dating Business in Ukraine.

A good interpreter is worth her weight in Gold, she will not only interpret conversations for you, but she will steer you clear of Gold Diggers, (remember you dont speak Ukraine or Russian). A good interpreter will protect your wallet, never allow any Cab Driver or Restaurant to over charge you a single penny, they will never ask you for gifts, or money ( other than the negotiated hourly rate - usually between $300-$400 UAH - $15-$20.00 per hour). A Good interpreter will have your safety and best interest at hand, and also be a great tourist Guide. Most important of all, A good interpreter will never abbreviate your words or meanings to rush a conversation, and will always tell you what is being said about you both directly and indirectly from all directions.

I have made some good friends in Ukraine, they always want to handle my apartment arrangements, and drive me around if they have time. I know that I can leave luggage or Documents safely with them, and they value the friendship and communication.

Everyone in Ukraine will tell you that thousands of Ladies are serious about finding a Husband or boyfriend, but these are not the ladies that you are corresponding with. The Ladies on the site are real, the professional Photo Shopped images are an effective hook. In General, maybe half the ladies are serious in their search, but maybe 80% are also serious about making extra money. Agencies advertise ALL the time (job interviews) for ladies to come in, have their pictures taken, post profiles, and make extra money Chatting with foreign member. Again, Ladies get paid a percentage or a commission, sometimes a salary to log onto the web sites and attract attention in the form of Letters, Chat requests, and Gifts.

There are many single mothers in Ukraine who have been abandoned by their husband ( seeking younger girlfriends) or boyfriends, these ladies are forced to move back home with mom and dad. There are many older Ukraine women who are tired of being alone, and have decided to pack up their life and move away with their future Husband. There are many other free sites for meeting Foreign women, AnastasiaDate is just a Better one. LISTEN TO A LOCAL Lady ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p103WzTMMEM)

ASK your self this question why would any young lady (20 -28) want to leave behind her Friends, family, relatives, and her way of life for someone that she has never met in real life? Many Ukraine women live a comfortable life, it may not be a rich life, but it is a good simple life. Many younger Ukraine women will honestly tell you Why would I leave my friends and family behind when I can just make this Free and Easy money from Foreign men who are happy to take me out for Dinners, buy me gifts, and give me money? A few years ago I spoke to a lady who laughed and said that she never has to worry about money, because foreign men flow into Odessa like an ocean wave. I was in Odessa in 2011 and you could see American and Foreign men everywhere, the restaurants were full of 3-way Dates, but that is not the case in 2015. The internet opens the door to exploration of Dating sites to the Mass Millions Take my advise, Save your money.

Stop paying AnastasiaDate and other sites for communication that you can find in other sites for free. Try Mamba or VK. Use social Media, try Reverse Image by Google to see if you can make contact using a different doorway. I get tired of hearing all the different excuses from many ladies Many ladies make excuses for everything if they are not serious to meet many times the excuses start to appear after you have bought your plane ticket or after you have arrived in Ukraine. Sometimes the ladies have no intention of every meeting.

A lady who is always on Chat, is a scammer, she is making her living by inviting you to chat with her. A lady who works a job cannot be on Chat 4-8 hours a day. WAKE UP this is a red flag! A letter that just simply repeats your last letter is another red Flag, and a letter that has no real content is just a waste of your money and time.

If a lady is at an Agency, her computer is sometimes recording her key strokes, so she must follow all the Agency rules when it comes down to exchanging contact info, but a Lady in her own home can send and receive phone numbers and other contact info. The site has a way of blocking some specific info like email addresses and other recognizable tags. Ladies sign an Agency agreement, and are told not to send and receive contact info, but I have received phone numbers and sent my personal local phone numbers with great success. My last trip, I arranged 3 meetings with in 10 minutes without sending Letters, My number was forwarded to her interpreter, and the interpreter called me to set up the meeting.

I still have credits on AnastasiaDate from a previous purchase, but I always try to limit my conversations to 5 minutes or less and use the credits when I am in Ukraine. If the lady is serious to meet, then it will happen, if she is just earning a living, she will hesitate and never meet with you. I try to cut through ( I cut and paste conversations) all the BS in 5 minutes or less. If you do arrange a meeting, Never go Alone, Always take your own interpreter with you She will save you from wasting your time and money. I have learned from many meetings that if she is too young, she is just going to try to scam you, plain and simple, it is just a way of life for this sort of opportunity.
