It’s important to note that everyone is unique and inimitable person in the world. But every country has its own particular features (e.g. historical, geographical and etc.), which are typical for it. And Russia is not an exception.

Some foreigners think that our country is impossible to live in. The Russians generally complain on the hard convents, but in the same time Russian people take offence if they heard something bad about their country from the foreigners. The Russians are very contradictory in this question.
Russian people criticize their country, law, politics, but in the same time they can’t stay very far from it for a long time. They start to miss it. And the troubles unite them.
Sensitive, friendly
The Russians are very friendly. They are fond of guests and like to treat them (especially, with vodka). They can also help unknown people in trouble. But they don’t smile to strangers (only to close people). This is treated as silly or strange. Too much laughter discovers folly.
The Russians need close relations. They love get together with their relatives, friends and neighbors to have a good time.
Russian people are afraid of loneliness. That’s why they try to be closer to each other and keep their families.
The Russians believe in success and fairy tales. Russian women are very caring and motherly. That makes them especially attractive for the foreigners.
Patient
The Russians can bear a lot of numerous changes in political system. They can also bear poverty, hard convents (also winters), wars and so on. Especially, this is typical for Russian women. They are stronger than their men.
I absolutely agree with this opinion.
Frank, talkative
