Finding a traditional wife abroad

Haven't heard been there but I heard that outside of Moscow and St Petersburg, English is basically non-existent. But France, Italy and especially Spain can also be really tough for English speakers too. You can meet big city dwellers in their 20s there who don't speak a single word.

Yes, some Spaniards even (jokingly) believe their genetics are the reason why they can't learn a lick of English.
 
Does anybody have intel on Odesa Ukraine? I have a prospect there, Orthodox Christian woman... but I need to be informed, I am baptized under the Moscow Patriarchate, so this makes it difficult at the moment right?, my priest is very strict

Most Ukrainians born before the war were probably baptized under the Moscow patriarchate as well. And many faithful Ukrainians still attend the canonical Orthodox churches. So I do not think this would be a problem for marriage if that's what you mean. Just make sure she is not in the schismatic church.

okay great, I would love to find a white woman ONLY( I do NOT apologize for that ) , to marry, I think it's not good to be alone, most men are delusional to live in this fallen world alone, it is hell...unless you are called to be a monastic, which I am most definitely not.

I agree, the celibate life eats away at you over the years. You do what you have to do.

Monks can make it alone because they're not around women all the time and they have a constant support network of brothers around them. If I thought I could handle the endless prayer and extreme fasting, I would become a monk.

yes absolutely I wholeheartedly agree, monastic life is ideal, but man is weak. I hope I can find a Russian or Ukranian woman to marry, let God's will be done.
