I adore you ♥️ tysm for this video 🥹
Thanks!
i've been thinking about this topic recently and its amazing how clear you're able to articulate cross culture dating
Thank you!
Also I’m an Asian American born in the US and my wife is from Eastern Europe (Bosnia)
@@Wooist How's the relationship going? I'm also from Bosnia :)
@@tarik6990 we just got married recently and I was just came back from Bosnia 🇧🇦 for our family celebration 2 weeks ago !!! Bosnians are great 🙂
@@Wooist Čestitam!
Fantastic Video. I believe that another video is required.
Ok will definitely consider that. Thanks!
@@DatingBeyondBorders You touched on a lot of things that people don't think about when dating outside their culture.
4:16 I'm Brazilian, from SP. The "who pays the bill" in my social circle is still the man. Not because we are poor girls needing a man, struggling, or whatever... it's just being polite. I'm 31 and to be honest I feel insulted when a man wants to split the bill, which just started to happen recently, btw, and very rarely. Even at a young age, in my early teens, hanging out with friends after school, the boys always "provided" for the girls. And when I say provide I mean: they used to pick us at home, walk us to our house... I would say they are very protective? Even my dad said to me once: "don't pay for the boys, never"...
So growing up in this enviorement when the boys were always protective, worried, when I split the bill I just feel "yeah, not the right person"... it's def not for the money and it happens with friends, too. You don't need to be on a date, if you have a close friend, he is likely to pay the bill.
I'll give you an example, real thing: couple months ago I got reconnected to a friend and he messaged me inviting me to go to a bar, I wasn't sure, and he said: "send me your adress, I'm sending you an uber", we went to the bar, we had some drinks, we went to his place to drink more, nothing happened, I slept over there because we were drunk... next day I woke up and there was a message of him "I needed to go out to pick my daughter, please let me know when you wake up so I can book you an uber". And I know him since I was 16y old. That's how "proper men" behave in Brazil. I didn't need the uber, I ordered myself, but that's how men take care of us. Unfortunelly in the recent years there are some girls using the good will of men.
That being said I should say that I grew up in a privileged group, went to private school, the people are more conservative, so this is my small bubble.
Um verdadero cavalheiro. Saudaçoes do Perú, com muita enveja
That's exactly 💯 how it always should be.
@@amiquigonzales7917 hehehe e veja que eu disse que ficamos "borrachos".
Por favor tem auto respeito, ninguem problem com dinheiro
Your sexual market value has been lowered, especially you're now in your 30s. If you were ugly when you were young this reality you're living now would have happened sooner.
Unless the couple can work around each other's culture, that relationship has to be reconsidered.
Great video. I think people should be mindful about their partners cultures. Also I guess the key for some people, is to try and date cultures that might be similar to yours, or a culture you personally would like to assimilate to as well.
Yes 🙌
It's hard for me.
My father is German, my mother Romanian. The difference between those 2 countries is like day and night.
But I prefer dating someone who's attitude is similar to Romania.
Like Colombia recently. I visited that country and fell in love with its people, attitude, nature, food, music,...
And sometimes I felt like I was in Romania when I was around the people or when I saw the beautiful landscape of theirs.
Love your videos! I look forward to the UK dating guide. ☺
Coming.. eventually! 😄
I am a Syrian woman ( not muslim) dating a German man and because of your channel I was really becoming more relaxed and opened for the culture diffrences especially for me as middle Eastern with European man , for me as not muslim woman from a muslim country makes me feel not belonged and that is basicly the reason haha
Understanding the background culture of your partner makes the relationship stronger 🤗
I am so happy to hear that!
Cross-cultural communication video yes please! and I LOVE Your Content So Much!!! Can't wait for the culture-specific guides ♥
Thank you!!!
Having done business in 25 countries and been in another 15 for personal reasons, I can relate to everything you have said in this video. Yes, cross cultural communication is critical. Please, create a video on that topic.
