Long-Distance Dating With a Twist: ElenasModels.com Review

Most of us, when we’re looking for a partner, are advised to seek someone close to home. After all, spending time together is a huge part of bonding with any potential partner. That’s why sites like ElenasModels.com get a bad reputation in some circles; this is, at its heart a long-distance dating site which encourages men all over the world to seek an Eastern European bride.

And, don’t let anyone fool you that is the demographic; you can sign up as a woman seeking a woman, but so far I’ve yet to see an option for women seeking men. You see, ElenasModels.com is more of an agency than a dating service; it specializes in connecting Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian women, though other Eastern European women can be found here, with non-Eastern European men for marriage and serious relationships. So, while it works more like Match.com than, say, Tinder it’s definitely more specialized than either of these sites.

Pros of ElenasModels.com

The pros of a service like this is that you know that you’re meeting real people; you’re asked to verify your email address before you even start looking at profiles, and the limited “free” membership means that only those who are serious about it stay longer than one month. Plus, this site doesn’t tolerate women asking for money, gifts, or other material “gifts” so you’re protected from scammers.

Cons of ElenasModels.com

The downside is pretty obvious; it’s not cheap, and anyone you do meet will be based in Eastern Europe so unless you live there you’re looking at a long-distance relationship. This means that you’ll be expected to be willing to put your share of the effort in.

REGISTRATION PROCESS

Well, the registration process is free, but fairly complex compared to some other sites. For a start it asks you to note your height, weight, eye color, hair color and length, body type, ethnicity, education, hobbies, occupation, marriage status, criminal record… yup, that last one is really a question. The list goes on and on, really, but, equally, you can be just as specific about what kinds of women you want to meet; you can search by height, age, ethnicity and race (no, really), religion, and political views. The good thing is that this is pretty much the creation of your profile; once you have answered these questions you’re good to check out any other dating profile you want. You can search the available profiles using a huge number of categories, which certainly means that picky daters are catered for!

The thing about ElenasModels.com that you really need to keep in mind, however, is that the free membership is highly limited. This is a site that plugs the idea of lasting love, but Elena makes you pay to search for it!

CREATION OF A PROFILE

PRICING PLANS

With the free membership you can view as many profiles as you like, see the last 10 women who have viewed your profile, and send 20 EOIs (expressions of interest). To send letters (emails), or receive them you need to have a paid membership or buy add-on services; you can pay for your membership in chunks of 3, 6, or 12 months. Now, in fairness, ElenasModels.com isn’t like some sites where they let girls ask you for money or encourage you to send “gifts”, and neither do they demand that you pay for “translation” services (most of the women here speak basic English). However, you will find that chatting to your love interests becomes easier the more you pay.

Memberships go from Basic (free for one month) to Gold (between $19 and $43 per month), Platinum (between $58 and $86 per month), and Ultimate (between $99 and $216 per month). You can also pay $299 for a VIP coaching package from Elena herself. This package purports to educate you in the art of online romance to make sure that you strike out, and for sure I could see some people needing it; plenty of the women on here are happy to send you a curt “not interested” message if you are crass, vulgar, or unattractive to them.

So, no, it’s not cheap, but the women are real, they are diverse, and, by and large, they are educated, good looking individuals who are looking for a real connection. So, there’s that benefit.

SEARCH OPTIONS

HOW TO DELETE AN ACCOUNT

Thankfully deleting your profile, if you want to, is much easier; just select your reason for leaving and hit “delete”. They do allow you to restart an old membership within a certain amount of time, but you need to contact the admins directly so it’s best to think carefully before deleting.

CONCLUSION

An Agency That Delivers On Its Promises (And Expects You to Do the Same)

All in all, ElenasModels.com caters to a very specific type of man or woman. With that said, if you fall within their demographic you’ll find them friendly, efficient, and secure. They don’t tolerate catfishing, they take steps to protect all of their members, and they offer a range of plans as well as a “try before you buy” membership.

No other Eastern European dating agency offers the same level of security and benefits, but at the end of the day this is what it says on the tin; these women come from specific places in the world, and if you’re not local you have to be willing to invest in the relationship. You have to spend time talking to them and you have to be willing to at least meet them halfway; this is not a mail-order-bride scenario, and it’s not a quick dating fix.

If you’re not ready to commit to a long-distance relationship, and you don’t want to travel you can expect to be dropped by the women that you strike up a conversation with because, and this is key, they are real women with real lives and real hopes.

So, it’s all about give and take.
