 New! My wife is Russian and I long to move to St. Petersburg myself. It is she that wants to stay in the US. I love Russia and St. Petersburg is perhaps the most magical city in the world. At some point I will not take no for an answer and we will move there. I want our children to know that they are Russian too and have this wonderful history as part of them.

New! I have been living in US almost 3 years and reason for this is my husband! I can tell that WE ARE HAPPY in our marriage and I don't want back any day from the past. I had good life back home: my wonderful parents (whom I miss dearly), my all friends, my University ( I didn't finished last grade because I left the country), my job which I really liked, but I never felt so good and so loved with anybody in my past relationship as with my husband. All of them were crazy about me but none of them could really love and appreciate me. I can't tell that everything was so easy : change country, left all life behind me and started from the beginning...

Going to America was tough decision in my life. I knew it was be hard time to be in different country but you never knew exactly what you could feel inside. First couple years were REALLY HARD... I missed my family, friends, my city and everything what I liked. I was depressed too like many of us, didn't like certain things here even tried to criticize, I got bored and had some disappointment. I didn't like to depend so much on my husband, couldn't communicate with people because my English wasn't good enough and felt like you are not belong to this country what messed up everything inside me.

From the beginning we based our relationship on respect, love and to be honest with each other. And I think I did my best to understand feelings of my husband about this COUNTRY which is HIS MOTHERLAND and where I (we all) came to have happy family. I still don't accept some certain things here ( which you can find in any country if you move) but I like much more about this GREAT country since I start speak well, travel, learn about many things, have wonderful American people around me and friends. 

My nostalgia was gone when I got busy, found something to do and realized my perspective in this country. We are all different and each of us has own story about life here (there, wherever...).Some of them are sad or scary ...another are happy or satisfied but some kind of stories sound so whining...It seems like women (girls) came here and expect that somebody HAVE to make them happy without their tries. Like these kind of persons can't be happy in any country with anybody. NOBODY push you to come and live in this country, just look inside yourself : what did you really want when you moved here? 

And one more thing...once I saw T-shirt on the man where said (in front): " WELCOME TO AMERICA....on back: NOW SPEAK ENGLISH."
