How Your New Russian Wife Thinks
About Your Roommates

One of the biggest sources of problems between
Russian women and American men that I have heard
about are roommates.
You know the guy you share the house with -- your
renter, your brother, your twenty five year old
cousin who can’t seem to support himself.
Well, your roommate is a smoking gun.
When your Russian fiancé gets to America, she is
going to take over the house. It’s her house now.
That’s the way Russian women are raised.
That couch potato, laying on the sofa in front of
the ever present football game, surrounded by dirty
socks and empty pizza boxes is public enemy number
one in the mind of your fiancé.

Even if his personal habits are not that reprehensible, he
will still be in the way. She is trying to organize the
house in her fashion and his idiosyncrasies don’t fit
into her plan.
From his standpoint, she’s just a big pain in the rear.
He didn’t ask her to come. He’s comfortable in his
lifestyle. His life may be in a rut, but he has moved in
and furnished it to his satisfaction.
You have learned to tolerate him over time. The two of you
have developed a peaceful co-existence that allows you to
live together.
But now there’s a new sheriff in town.
Your fiancé has just gotten out the can of pesticide and
is fumigating the place for parasites. And the biggest
pest is the one with his butt cheeks pressed against the
seat cushions of the sofa right in the middle of the
house. He’s hard to ignore.
Your roommate will probably fight back. He will say things
to undermine your fiancé. Your fiancé will eventually
tell you ‘either he goes or I go’ and she will mean
it. You are in the middle and you feel like the victim.
You’re not. It’s all your fault. Get rid of your
roommate before she arrives.
I know all the arguments. He helps with the rent. He’s
depending on you. He’s like a (brother, son, fill in the
blank) to you. You’ll have to work overtime to make up
the difference in rent money. You may even have to get
another job.
I don’t care. Get rid of the roommate. Which do you want
more a wife or a roommate?
If you said roommate, then why did you bring your fiancé
to America in the first place?
Get this through your head. It’s not your house any
more. It’s her house. She’s the one who is going to
turn your house into a home. That includes fumigating all
the pests out of the house.
Your roommate is not innocent either. He has the same
attitude as a rat living in an abandoned house. The rat
thinks he has as much right to live in your house as you
do.
Do you think the rat thinks it’s fair that you chase him
out of the house? Of course not. Neither will your
roommate. If you and he are smart, he will be gone before
your fiancé gets there.
If not, he will be gone shortly after she gets there, or
she will be gone.
It's Her House Now:
I didn’t have a roommate. I had just moved into my house
several months before I went to bring my fiancé to
America. There were unopened boxes filling up the spare
bedroom.
When my fiancé came to my house, she wanted all the boxes
emptied and the items in them put away. In my way of
thinking, this was a project that I would get around to
periodically over the next three years.
I told her the best way for me to tackle the project was
to keep the boxes under my nose so I would be aware of
them, and gradually, get around to taking care of
‘processing them.’
My fiancé was having none of it. She wanted the boxes out
NOW.
We had a huge, knock down drag out fight about the boxes.
Finally, I moved them out into the garage where they sit
two years later, for the most part, unopened.
Truce. An armistice was signed.
My now wife keeps the house in immaculate condition. She
likes to do the same with my office. I told her my office
is ‘my territory’ – that the rest of the house is
‘hers’ to do with as she wishes. My wife insists on
cleaning my office when I’m not around.
Electrical plugs to the computer and other office
equipment are frequently accidentally pulled out and in
disarray. Files are piled up rather than in the perfect
place where I ‘knew exactly where they were.’ But
there is no dust in my office. No dirt. No pests.
Today we have found a middle point where we meet. But the
real truth is that the house is her territory and I am
only a welcome visitor in it.
As my wife likes to say to me when she greets me at the
door with a kiss, “You are welcome at home, my
darling.”
