Misalliance. This Frech term appeared long time ago. Nowadays it doesn't sound that sharp like it did in the past, although this subject is still relevant. We decided to look at this problem from different points of view. Besides, most western men in their 40s, who are eager to tie their lives with beautiful young Russian girls, often are concerned about the age difference. They also want to know, if the girls are genuine and serious in the relationships where a man is older. We should say that in our modern society a lot of marriages (about 40 %) between foreign men and Russian women are considered misalliance marriages.
Let's take a closer look at this problem or whether it is a problem at all? As a rule, foreign men are searching for serious Russian women for marriage who are 10 -15 - 20 or even 25(!) years younger. In a marriage with a young girl from Russia you will have to find common ground, which will support the feeling of respect, mutual understanding and sympathy. Those couples who entered into a marriage and were not able to find this common ground probably had to face the following problems.
Parents
No matter how simple it sounds, everything starts with the relationships with HER parents. Not many Russian fathers would be eager to marry off a daughter to his foreign coeval. To call your in laws "father" and "mother" may sound funny. (NOTE! In Russian it is a tradition to call your in laws "father" and "mother")
Leisure time
The nature of your evenings may be different. Of course, if you don't have the same hobbies. Most likely that you would like to stay at home in peaceful and quiet atmosphere and your young Russian wife would prefer to spend the evening somewhere in a noisy company.
Friends
That's another problem that you might face if you have a young Russian wife. Different interests, ages and disposition. To meet with different companies together may be not that much fun. Although to refuse from friends is not reasonable. So, you will have to find the compromise.
Sex
Besides, your Russian wife must realize that sexual relationships with a man who is much older than her would be not that often and vivid. Once again, that depends...
Of course, it would be ridiculous to put a mark "unhappy" on such couples. They just like all others have to find the ways how to deal with the problem together. And every matter has two sides. So, you will ask if there are advantages of misalliance marriages? Young and beautiful Russian women who marry older man, finds in him 3 in one, her husband, a Daddy for her children and her "father". The last, the relations "father-daughter" psychologists consider a very good tandem in a relationship between a husband a wife.
Older men know how to court to a woman and take care of her. They know what a woman needs and wants, how to make russian women happy and loved. Besides, a young Russina girls should realize that older men unlikely will be looking for fun on the side. He doesn't need additional bursts of emotions with other women NO matter how strange and unbelievable it was, all the differences have their chances to survive. And such different in age or on a social level couples can live happily eve after. The most important thing in such relationships is mutual respect and love.
