ONLINE DATING
When Dating Sites Promise You Beautiful Ukraine Women
What do they really mean? And how can you tell if it’s just a scam?
As an avid supporter of online dating, I will always be grateful for all the things modern technology has made easy and convenient in terms of connecting people from all around the world.
But as an Eastern European, I can’t help but be frustrated with the bad reputation that online dating gets from websites using beautiful Ukraine women for tacky and often illegal purposes.
They make the risk greater for people who want to try online dating, and they also make things harder for Ukrainian women like myself who just want to find true love.
Why Are Ukrainian Women So Beautiful?
In her 2023 article for the magazine Foreign Policy, Kyiv-based journalist Oleksandra Povoroznyk outlined the complicated relationship Ukrainian women have with beauty, especially in a time of war.
Even before the conflict with Russia, photos and profiles or beautiful Ukraine women have dominated dating platforms online. The city of Odessa is even considered the heart of international dating in Eastern Europe.
Though I haven’t lived in Ukraine for years, I still carry this heritage. Not only do I encounter stereotypes about my country almost on a daily basis, but my own adherence to certain beauty standards and care for physical appearance are also thanks to my culture.
In a way, Ukrainian women are beautiful because where we’re from, beauty is often tied to pride and self-worth. If you ask me, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Unfortunately, this very same pride can be used against us.
How to Identify Legitimate Ukraine Dating Sites and Services
There is nothing wrong with being interested in dating beautiful Ukraine women. I’ve already talked about the best ways to approach that idea before.
But when people without the best intentions enter the picture, it can be difficult to do it right. They dangle our beauty like a carrot on a stick to do bad things.
Which is why it’s very important to learn how you can avoid them.
1. They acknowledge the current situation in Ukraine.
Dating sites and services who only advertise beautiful Ukraine women without taking into account the current war are almost always lying to you.
Yes, plenty of Ukrainian women continue living their lives and looking for love, but none of us sweep under the rug the very real struggle happening right now in our homeland.
2. There are comprehensive background checks.
Pretty faces are often used as a lure to make you forget about your safety and security while using online dating platforms.
The best and most reliable dating sites will always provide detailed background checks to ensure that everyone is who they say they are.
3. The company has a solid reputation in the business.
Websites and apps that show photos of beautiful Ukraine women are a dime a dozen, and they show up as quickly as they’re taken down.
Look for companies that have been in the industry for years, with testimonials and reviews from clients who can attest to their reliability and the quality of their services.
4. There are transparent payment terms.
If they ask you for money right away without bothering to explain what the fees are for, then you run. That’s the biggest red flag when it comes to online dating.
Instead of using the Ukraine war for sympathy, legitimate sites will list down thorough and reasonable payment terms with safety features for your personal data.
5. They don’t promise you instant happily ever after.
No online dating site can automatically give you all the beautiful Ukraine women you want. That’s not how it works.
Dating companies help you connect with these women and facilitate your journey together. You’re the one who has to do the hard part of getting to know them and finding your special someone.
Anyone who promises instant true love in exchange for money is not just lying to you — they’re also trying to rob you.
