| Dating International,Is It the Best?
Posted: 6/9/2008 11:35:30 AM | | i figure after dealing with all the weirdnesses here like all the spoiled behavior, the lack of courtesy, the indebtedness, the jumping from one person to another, the cheating, the fighting from feminists and otherwise grasping the feminist ideals, the body modifications, smoking, drinking, drugs, there has to be a place on this earth where women are cleaner and more responsible. | |

Posted: 6/9/2008 11:44:13 AM | Well, my father is French and truly European. I want to retire in Italy and my best friends live over there. I feel at home in Greece and Italy. I have never had that same feeling in the U.S. even though I am born here. My best ex-boyfriends were Italian and Greek. We parted as friends and very well.
I know more about Greece and Italy then they do! | |

Posted: 6/11/2008 10:13:30 PM | Definitely. People raised in North America have to overcome a lot of brainwashing that is shoved down our throats by the media. It takes a lot of self-awareness to move past this and to get beyond superficial and shallow ideas about relationships. Few people are even open to looking at this.
Even though there may be some cultural issues to grapple with, I definitely feel one has a better crack at building a relationship of substance with a man who was not raised in the USA or Canada. It's also far easier to meet interesting men when one is travelling. | |

This epoch is called Globalisation, so international dating is the way to go, in tune with the governing dynamics. Why go local? Do we buy local products, invest in local only companies or take vacations 20 miles away? Nope! So why should dating be any different? | |

Posted: 6/11/2008 10:48:03 PM | We are all individuals. Every situation is different.
The fact that you are open to meeting people from other countries, learning new cultures and languages, and willing to travel, probably means that you have decent prospects for success.
There are no absolutes. Think of the range of people that you know here. Other countries are no different in that respect. The fact that you are from the U.S. might give you a bit of an advantage in some circles, but might also prevent you from grasping subtleties which might impact you later.
I would not recommend the mail-order thing to anyone, but if you have the chance to live and work in another country, learn some of the language, and make friends there, you will undoubtedly find yourself with social opportunities. And if it works out, you know where you will be going for summer vacations for life! | |

If you're an open individual with a desire for knowledge of foreign cultures and a patience to learn the customs, traditions, and even the language you understand, and the courage to give respect to the ones you don't understand, I'd say international dating might be in your best interest.
If you only care about sterotypes and physical appearance, and have no interest whatsoever in who they are and where they come from, I'd suggest sticking within your own boundries.
Good luck with your lady friend OP.  | |
