Kiss Me Katyusha ? Russian Online Dating Tips
Kiss Me Katyusha ? Russian Online Dating Tips
“How did it happen that their lips came together? How does it happen that birds sing, that snow melts, that the rose unfolds, that the dawn whitens behind the stark shapes of trees on the quivering summit of the hill? A kiss, and all was said.”
Victor Hugo
One of the first pieces of advice my father gave me was how to lead up to kissing a girl for the first time. “First,” he said in a low voice looking up at my mother who from the kitchen smiled coyly at him, “gently grasp her hand. Odds on she’ll instinctively close her hand around yours, maybe a little surprised by her own reaction. But by then in her mind, you see, it’s too late for her to retreat. She’s committed to the gesture. Then take her hand and kiss it…kiss the back softly, turn her hand over, kiss the palm. Take your time. It’s the perfect entr?e to a kiss on the lips. After all, you need to start someplace…”
In Russia, even amid the financial crisis, there seems to be an increase of instances of public intimacy which leads one to speculate what and how much more is going on behind closed doors. The metro in any given Russian city here is a prime example and the long escalator ride into the underground abyss is ground zero. Here you’ll notice that the standard position for couples on the metro escalator calls for the man to take up the lower stair when either ascending from or descending onto the platform. This puts the amorous couple in perfect position for a long smooching embrace. Everywhere in the subway system one can see couples pushing the envelope of affection in spite of the throngs that surround them. So much so that last year saw a Moscow city ordinance go down in flames which sought to prohibit kissing and embracing in the metro system.
All this propensity of public affection goes to show that the Russians have a healthy handle on their love lives in spite of the current global predicament. They know and employ one of the best ways to combat stress through sensuous touch and intimacy whenever and where ever possible.
Professor Helen Fisher, an anthropological biologist at Rutgers University, says “Times of stress can trigger feelings of attraction – quite simply, you’re more susceptible.” Her theory is based on feelings of anxiety that stimulate the amount of dopamine in the brain, a chemical that leads to increased desire and longing for romantic love.
This theory was recently backed by a recent RIA Novosti news conference entitled “Love during the crisis”, which featured experts from the All-Russian Public Opinion Studies Center (VtsIOM). Their research reveals a 13 per cent increase of ‘lonely hearts’ in Russia since the beginning of the worldwide financial crisis, with those surveyed rating love and intimacy more important during periods of trouble than during affluent times.
Indeed, research indicates that love and family are overwhelmingly the main life focus of Russians. The Novosti survey found that 59 per cent of Russians believe in love at first sight. Yelena Pakhomova, the head of social research at VtsIOM, says “The most romantic at heart live in the Urals and the Northwestern Federal districts.”
In the midst of the financial turmoil and materialism that has swept the world, the blissful truth is that a kiss is still gloriously free. And what loving couples know is that a long, passionate kiss is a great way to boost a relationship and sweep away the blues. Those who have been together the longest will often claim that what keeps marriage fresh is regularly making out like high school teens.
A long, romantic kissing session following a delicious meal and bottle of good wine, can be a therapeutic means to improve one’s mood and relax to the fullest. A long kiss releases a glorious rush of hormones and neurotransmitters, which leads to an exhilarating buzz of endorphins. Kissing promotes good health, can boost immunity and even provides a form of physical exercise (burning a few calories a minute!).
Guide ‘The Art of Kissing’ by Michael Cane discusses how regular sessions of intense kissing can form the foundation of a successful relationship. He says, “Women say they can tell if a relationship is going to work after the first kiss, after the first night of kissing. They just get a feeling, an intuition.”
When times are tough and work life becomes complicated, making out with a loving partner can be a great way to release tension and anxiety. And in the words of one of our favorites, Anna Kournikova…
“I have a lot of boyfriends…and I kiss them all.”

5. Find your ideal group – Find a group that gathers around an idea or issue that your product or service can resolve. You will become their #1 resource.
6. Centers of influence – Find the people that love to share everything with others (town criers I call them), and get them in your corner.
They will broadcast your message to hundreds…even thousands.

If, you call enough people, there is only a matter of time before you get a new customer.

Church Letter Writing Success Mini Course – Tip 10 of 13
Church Letter Writing Success Mini Course – Tip 10 of 13
Church Letter Writing Success Mini Course – Tip 10 of 13
It is recommended you use all 13 Tips in your Ezine
Our tenth lesson in “13 Tips For Church Letter Writing
Success” will again build off the letter “T” in our Church
Letters acrostic.
So far, we have looked at the following:
C – Be Clear
H – Be Hopeful
U – Be Understanding
R – Be Responsive
C – Be Consistent
H – Be Helpful
L – Be “Letter-Ready”
E – Be Evangelistic
T – Be Tactful
Today, we will take a look at:
T – Be Timely
This is similar to a previous point on being “Letter-Ready”.
Being timely is knowing when to send a letter or e-mail and
then sending it off with a prayer for God’s anointing and
blessing to be upon the reader as they open it.
In the “Send Out Cards” system (www.churchcards.net), the founder
of the system Kody Bateman encourages people to send cards when
they are “prompted” within themselves to do this. Well, as
Christians, we know that this “prompting” is often the Holy Spirit
speaking to us to reach out and minister in some way.
This could be through the sending of a letter, or card, or
performing a “random act of kindness” to bless someone in need.
Some great ideas for this can be found at www.servantevangelism.com
If you say you are going to send the person a note, or follow up
with a phone call, or show up at a certain time, then be a keeper
of your word. James 5:13 – “Above all, my brothers, do not
swear–not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let
your “Yes” be yes, and your “No,” no, or you will be
condemned.”
While ministry leaders are busy, and rightly so, there can be
nothing so discouraging for a person to sit and wait for an
expected phone call that was promised in service on Sunday!
None of us will ever have the perfect memory, yet we don’t want
to develop a character trait of forgetfulness that in turn will
be seen as a non-caring attitude.
Use reminder tools such as Outlook, or PDA’s, or just an old
fashioned notebook! (Just don’t forget to check your notebook!)
Below is your tenth complimentary letter which you may
modify and use in your own church communications.
(Congratulations on New Business)
I’m writing with a glad heart to congratulate you on launching your
new business. I can only imagine the excitement you must feel right
now over the blessing that God has granted you.
I trust that you are aware of not only the benefits you can reap
from opening your own business, but the real possibility for
setbacks. Your God-given strength and courage have aided you at
each step toward this goal, and they will not abandon you as long
as you seek guidance from Jesus Christ. Be mindful of the message
Jesus gave us, that he is “the vine, ye are the branches. He that
abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit:
for without me ye can do nothing.” (John 15:5) When we trust in and
listen to Him, he will do the same and help us to achieve with Him
what we could never do alone. A business founded on the values of
Jesus can not only be a successful for its proprietor, but also for
the entire community.
Your family here at Christian Life Church wants only to see you do
well and do God’s work. I encourage you to spread the news of your
new endeavor amongst your friends in the church as they might be
interested in your services and supporting your business with their
patronage. This is a joyous occasion in which we can come together
and assist one of our brothers/sisters in a new enterprise.
If there is any advice or guidance that I can provide, please do
not hesitate to contact me at my office. I wish the best for you
and will keep your success – spiritual and personal – in my
prayers. Remember that you are blessed, and that with Jesus Christ
in your life there is nothing that you cannot achieve.
Your pastor,
Rev. John Doe
