Unlike the casual "hanging out" culture prevalent in the US, Russian dating (often called vstrechatsya – to meet) tends to imply exclusivity from a much earlier stage. For a Russian teen, asking someone to "go for a walk" ( pojti gulat' ) is often the equivalent of a Western "DTR" (Define The Relationship) talk.
To write a Russian teen romance, forget the "will they/won't they" tease. Assume they will, and then ask: How will life brutally tear them apart? And how beautifully will they try to hold on? That is the soul of the Russian romantic storyline. rusian teen sex
