Ukrainian Women are Not Feeling These 7 Dating Habits

It’s difficult to outline the most common mistakes western men make when they start chatting with Ukrainian girls. We’re all human and it’s natural to make mistakes when dealing with people. But if you want to avoid embarrassing situations, it’s important to stay educated (this blog is a great start, wink wink) because Ukrainian women are definitely not feeling these 7 dating habits. 

1. Russia is not Ukraine

First things first, they are two different countries. It will be smart to read about Ukraine in advance (its culture, customs, traditions, etc). Every woman will be flattered to realize that a man has spent time getting to know her country and culture. A Ukrainian lady will get upset if a man refers to her country as Russia, instead of Ukraine. That would mean he does not even know that Ukraine exists, or even worse – that he doesn’t care to know. That may cause lots of problems from the very beginning.

2. Myths

The second most common mistake that men make is considering Ukraine a third world country. They tend to think that all the beautiful women they see on the site are simply looking for a rich husband and a ticket abroad. The truth is that most Ukrainian women wouldn’t consider leaving unless it was for true love. That’s why reading about Ukraine is important! 

3. Ukrainian mentality

There’s another major habit most men make when starting a relationship with a Ukrainian woman – they confess their love in the very first letter. The words, “I love you” mean a lot in Ukraine. Ukrainian men hardly ever say them early in a relationship. To say “I love you” in Ukraine takes a lot of time, serious feelings and commitment. Therefore, a Ukrainian woman will not like it if a western man tries to persuade her from the very beginning. Rather, she would think he’s shallow and likely drops that same line to every girl on the dating site.

4. Money

Another ugly mistake foreign men make is to talk about how much money he has been spending on her – chat, gifts, etc. Even worse, to talk about how much money he’s spent during their personal video chats. This is a fast way to deeply disappoint a Ukrainian woman, and should be kept a secret. The one thing they want most of is to be the center of a man’s attention, anything less could spell disaster from the start.

5. Dress code

Some men, especially those from the US, may be shocked by the way Ukrainian women dress, which is anything but conservative. Most Ukrainian ladies prefer to dress fashionably, and in a way that sometimes may be considered “bold.” That’s because they are not ashamed to show off their beautiful bodies. Just don’t get the wrong impression, fellas. This isn’t for anything other than their own confidence. Most women in Ukraine wouldn’t consider hooking up early on, and others wouldn’t entertain the idea until they are engaged or married to a man.

6. Smiling

The majority of people in the USA are friendly and outgoing, and are not afraid to smile at strangers at random. There’s a perception that Ukrainians always look angry, which is completely wrong. People in Ukraine love to smile and have fun, but it’s not part of the local culture to smile at others that you don’t know. If you’re smiling in Ukraine as much as Americans do, people will think you’re a little crazy (not to mention your Ukrainian lady)!

7. Flowers

When dating Ukrainian women make sure you give them only an odd number of flowers. In Ukraine, an even number of flowers are being brought only to funerals. While you’re at it, try avoiding yellow flowers, because they are considered to be symbolizing a break up. A superstitious lady may also consider it to be a bad omen or a sign of bad luck.

Conclusion

There is no way to be 100% right about what Ukrainian women want from the men they date. However, just try to be half the man she expects, remember that Ukrainian women are not feeling these 7 dating habits, and you’ll be just fine.
