russian women/culture question?

[Brittney O]

I had a dream last night that i was at my russian boyfriend's house for the first time, and his mom started yelling all kinds of names at me, pushed me out of the house and yelled "thats why i hate american girls!" so now im terrified of meeting her. My boyfriend has mentioned that in his culture, you usually dont date unless your looking for a wife. we've been together for quite some time now, and i havent met his parents. My question is, are russian women typically unwelcoming when it comes to americans being in the family?

Obviously us Russian women are all individualistic.
But typically? I would say no. I doubt you have anything to worry about. It was just a dream.

Culture-wise the mother is suppose to be there for the children, no matter what and not be a burden. The mothers job is to teach her children to be independent and responsible for their own decisions, deeds and actions.

My mother doesn't care that my finance is from Ghana, Africa. Why would that matter? She would care and be worried if he wasn't a good man, wherever he was from.

And she would be happy if he was a good man and I loved him, wherever he was from.
As for me, I don't care where anyone was born.

Ahh, and it is true that a lot of the older generation do think that "dating" is only and just a step towards marriage.

It is a little bit embarrassing.
