The story of the Russian man, specifically the videos he was seen in with different women, got people talking on social media.
Legit.ng picked interest in one of the videos, which shows a lady turning down a request for a meeting with the viral Russian man, who is yet to be arrested at the time of writing this report.
Legit.ng contacted a relationship therapist, Mr. Godwin Ogwuche of GoRu Academy, for insight into the story.
Our first question to him was on how individuals, ladies especially, can set boundaries when approached by a stranger.
Mr. Godwin explained:
"Setting boundaries with a stranger starts with confidence and clarity. You don’t owe anyone your time, attention, or explanation just because they approached you. If a stranger starts a conversation or makes a request, it’s okay to say things like: “No, thank you.” “I’m not interested.” “I’m sorry, I can’t help.” You don’t even have to justify yourself. A simple, firm “No” is enough."
"Your body language also matters; keep your posture straight, make eye contact if comfortable, and exit the situation if you feel uneasy."
"Boundaries mean respecting yourself first, and a person with good or bad intentions will respect those boundaries."
While the lady acted very politely and respectfully to the Russian man, Mr. Godwin Ogwuche spoke on this. He shared advice to ladies who might be under pressure to respond to a stranger, even when they do not want to.
The therapist shared:
"If you feel pressured to say 'yes' even when you don’t want to, the most important thing is to honor your own feelings first. It’s okay to disappoint someone; what’s not okay is betraying your comfort or safety just to avoid awkwardness."
He listed several methods that ladies who find themselves in situations like this can adopt to protect their sanity.
"Here’s what you can do:"
"Pause beore responding: Don’t rush your answer. Take a breath and assess how you feel."
"Use a polite but firm response: “No, I’m not comfortable with that.”"
"Remember your worth: Your comfort and safety are more important than pleasing someone you barely know."
"Don’t explain too much: You don’t need to justify your 'no'; a clear boundary is enough."
"Real confidence is not about being rude; it’s about being respectful to yourself and others. If you don’t want something, say so without guilt. Anyone who respects you will respect that decision."
