  • Don't blamer about the on time thing. I went on a date with the columbian woman and waited an hour and a half for her to show up. I'm Peruvian I grew up in the States. Being punctual for me is showing A sign of respect.

  • I grew up in Mexico, with a Mexican dad and American mom. Everyone there had a very easygoing, relaxed attitude about time. It was a very low-pressure, go with the flow attitude- which made life more enjoyable than being super strict and uptight. And nobody was offended or inconvenienced because it was understood that everyone was on a late timeline. Even after we moved back to the States, if someone was ever late, my mom would joke that they’re on β€œMexico time” πŸ˜‚ (and my dad always let my mom be in charge, so I guess that depends on the couple).

  • I'm German and I never could fit in with punctuality. Moved to Greece, married a Greek and feel like I've always belonged here πŸ˜…

    • Are you a German man? They are stereotyped as very strict in Greece, you are a special one.

    • @@_my_insomnia_blink562 I'm a German woman. I've met a few German women who are very happy in Greece, but not many men.

    • ​@@helgaioannidis9365 Gut gemacht! πŸ˜ŠπŸŽ‰ Viele Grüße ins wunderschΓΆne Griechenland!

    • ​@@helgaioannidis9365 there are 10 times more German men with Greek women! I grew up with kids of German fathers & Greek mothers actually Greek men would never consider dating or worse marrying a German woman since German women are considered unattractive by Greek men bad girlfriends and cold !!!

  • "Happy wife, happy life" is one of the most cruel, toxic and egocentric concepts of a relationship. If you aren't able to value his feelings and needs in an equal standard, you are just a spoiled person.

    • Are you her ex? What man feelings when he is late for 1,2 hours. You can fix your cultural thing for a girl. He was toxic as to see from her story

    • @@marynadebourbon3168 no, may God forbid ; no-one needs to change "cultural thing" for anyone, mainly if you don't want to (why don't she change, then, and be more patient and understanding, and adaptable, and resilient? Why should men change, instead?)
