About Lithuanian Women

The international marriage industry is far less developed in Lithuania than in former Soviet countries such as Russia and Ukraine. It is, however, very possible to meet women from Lithuania, both via online dating and or simply by visiting this easy-going Baltic country.

How do Lithuanian women compare to women from Russia and Ukraine?

These days, only a very small percentage (about 5%) is of Russian ethnicity. However, due to their legacy of being a part of the Soviet Union, Russian culture is certainly intertwined in their history.

As with all of the Baltic countries, you will notice that the lifestyle in Lithuania is very "European". You'll also notice this in St Petersburg, in Russia, and no doubt this has a lot to do with its geographical proximity and the important trade routes that historically came through the Baltic region from Western Europe.

Lithuania is also a highly-developed country, with citizens enjoying a high average income and lifestyle.

What language do they speak in Lithuania?

The official language of Lithuania is Lithuanian. This is a Baltic language, based on the Latin alphabet.

Most of the population also speak another language, with English and Russian being the two major second languages. The Russian language is widely understood in Lithuania, and this is primarily due to their legacy of being a part of the Soviet Union.

Where to Meet Lithuanian Women

As previously mentioned, the international marriage "industry" is much less developed in Lithuania than in Russian and Ukraine, and this means that you will find fewer girls on the dating sites who are from Lithuania. This is partly due to the smaller population in Lithuania compared to Russia and Ukraine, but also due to there being less agencies, romance tours and so forth in Lithuania.

Lithuania is, however, a very modern, friendly country with a high standard of living. Tourism has boomed in recent times in Luthuania, especially since their entry into the European Union, and it is easy to visit as a "do-it-yourself" tourist.

If you're wanting to meet a Lithuanian woman for marriage, there are a few key "rules" you should stick to. Be patient. Use only the reputable dating sites. Be smart and thorough in your dating experiences.
