An international marriage agency is a very profitable business. A Russian bride costs from 2 up to 10 thousand dollars in the international marriage market. Therefore agencies are interested in a constant influx of new "goods". Young and beautiful goods.
In a marriage agency you will never be told about the inevitable problems accompanying an intercultural marriage, marriage agents will assure you that their brides become extremely happy wives, send them cards with infinite "thanks".
This phenomenon of the international marriage market is well known to experts. These rules of the game are common to all the "dealers of happiness"; distributors of cosmetics behave in the same way, insisting that it is very simple to become happy. It is only necessary to trust them and switch off the intellectual control. It happens to girls who are sold, and it happens with the American grooms who "buy".
Agents see that their clients are mostly people who are not very successful, those who had no luck in their local marriage agency (and it is the main reason why Americans search for wives in Russia). Then they bring them together with "quality brides". But the main argument is the same: Sir, your money has not been spent in vain, the girl will go with you to America! And unfortunately most girls think the same: they think they should only leave Russia, and the rest will be decided when they come. Within the last ten years 75 thousand women have left Russia for the USA. If it is estimated that 8 of 10 intercultural marriages break up, then how many of Russian girls will find their happiness across the ocean?
