I used this site for sometime.
At first you are overwhelmed with the letters. Hard to choose from.
I picked a few ladies and some of them started writing 2 line letters twice a day leading me to believe they were getting a cut from the money.
I chose a very beautiful lady and wrote her exclusively for over a year. We also communicated privately but the translation isn't as good. Lol
I then booked a trip to Ukraine in the spring of 2015. I did not use the site and paid them no fee.
I am Ukrainian and very proud of it, so it was not only a chance to meet this lady in person but to see the history and beauty of this country as well.
We spent a couple of evenings together enjoying dinner and walking along the Dniper river.
I am totally in love with her.
After returning home I contacted an immigration lawyer in Canada and was told it would take a lot of time, money and a slim chance of her being allowed into Canada even for a short visit.
There are definitely some deceptive practices but I believe there are some women who are sincere there.
My suggestion is to just book a trip there on your own. The prices for flights, rooms, meals and taxi's is very good. 20UAH/CDN $
Enjoy the history and beauty of the country and hope that you meet someone.
I am glad that I went as well as meeting her. I just wish that I had looked into the immigration situation before I got involved in this.
Dear Doug, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed our site and got to meet a beautiful lady. Unfortuntately, it is not in our power to change the immigration laws. Maybe you gave up too early and it would be so hard and expensive after all. For instance, she could have applied for a "fiancée" visa. You can read some success stories at http://www.woman-from-russia.com/wiki/index.php/Testimonials but most happy customers prefer not to advertise the fact that they met their partner on a dating site.
