Posted: 5/18/2008 3:52:03 PM | Ok ladies, here is a fun topic.
There is a little japanese place that I like to go and eat at. and well there is a really cute waitress I caught looking at me for over 10 min. and well she doesn't speak a work of english.. but everytime I go in I flirt with her, well as much as I can, and I enjoy making her blush, and I get great service..LOL
So let's here your stories. I just thought this was funny, but I am considering learning japanese..hehe..
and if you have ideas of how to overcome the difference I am all ears. and I know the guys will join in too..

I think it was Margaret Cho who used to say that was the great thing about being "ethnic looking" in America. If she didn't want to talk to someone, she'd pretend she didn't speak English and giggle a lot.
I'm just saying...
Never a bad thing to learn a foreign language.
Even if you didn't get a date with the girl, you learned a foreign language. | |

Posted: 5/18/2008 4:12:45 PM | | Last year I dated a Brazilian who had very limited English. He learned more, I picked up some Portuguese, and we never ever got into an argument. It was easier to help him understand things in person. Since he went back to Brazil our phone conversations are very limited. | |

Posted: 5/18/2008 5:02:56 PM | haha, I know I used to pretend that I was from other countries as well.. it was fun to mess with diffrent people, but I don't know if I would take this anywhere. I just think it's fun to flirt. But I won't stop it if something does happen.. who knows..
I did date a girl to learn spanish, only so I could better speak with my moms side of the family..Haha, I still think it's bad that I took 2 years of spanish, and still don't know it well. but it's fun to learn another language first had like that.. | |

Posted: 5/18/2008 5:19:37 PM | Yes, as we've all heard from the men posting in this forum. Good customer service means the woman wants to sex you up.
Not all the strippers are into you, either.
You do realize if attractive women DON'T flirt with you their tip normally sucks, right?
Having gotten that out of the way: If you want some help on some basic Japanese and easy ways to learn more, message me. (I'm not talking pick up lines or how to get to the library) Sentence structure is REALLY easy, pronounciation is also really easy, the internet is stuffed full of dictionaries and she'll help you if you try. All of my good non-curse phrases in Spanish are from shopping, give a little get a lot.
Learning basic friendly phrases you can do with a google search, once you understand the formal and informal you can conjugate most of it, they have very few irregulars for begining conversations. Urinate is one of the irregulars, but, really, when you HAVE to urinate have you ever encountered any sort of language barrier? The pee dance is universal. Asking if she eats penis is NOT a good pick up line. No amount of eyebrow bouncing helps it. | |

Posted: 6/2/2008 10:20:48 AM | Just one precaution: with someone from a different culture or a different language there is even more scope than usual to interpret their words and actions more favourably than they really are intended: to see someone as being better than they are, nicer than they are. They say something that you would be offended at if it was from someone from your culture/language and you tell yourself, "Oh well, they didn't really mean X.... they are not that nasty." because this is what you want to believe. Then some time down the line you find they did mean exactly that and they are that nasty.
It takes longer to get to know a person fully where there is a language or cultural difference and it's worth taking that into account and not getting carried away with a lot of wishful thinking. | |

Haha...how do you flirt with someone if they don't speak the same language???
Do you pinch her bum? What kind of body language do you use to express interest?
Is winking or "the shocker" international symbols of interest???  | |

Posted: 6/2/2008 1:21:34 PM | | I have a friend who owns a t-shirt that reads, "Looking for a Japanese Boyfriend" in kanji. The very few Japanese men she's met in public (they're rare here) stared, blushed then stumbled away. She eventually snagged an asian boyfriend, but not with the t-shirt. At least she has it for posterity. | |

Posted: 6/2/2008 1:25:18 PM | Lots of hand jestures, is my advice.
I have had lots of experience in this department. Be careful though, a language barrier can either make or break a relationship. Miscomunication happens way too often. Some more advice, check out japanses customers, how the men treat women, acdeptable behaviour etc. This will help a lot and make her feel more comfortable with you .
Good Luck! | |

Posted: 6/2/2008 1:33:58 PM | | Most Japanese and Asian restautants are run and staffed by family. And most understand and speak some English....just speak to her in English she will give you her answers through body language and some ok's and yes and no and thank you. But I would be willing to bet she undersatands you if she is working as a waitress. So dont discuss her if she is within earshot of you. | |

Posted: 6/2/2008 9:22:30 PM | Haha, thanks for the fun read..
well as we all know there are lots of way to flirt, and the shocker is a great ice braker in any language.. LOL
and yes a smile and soft touch on the had and sholder do great for there tips as well.. LOL..
I know nothing will happen, it just a way to kill time for good food that takes way to long to get. but it's nice to know where most of you stand on the issue. | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 11:04:15 AM | Are you sure she has a greencard? Maybe she is there illegally....
Just a thought, why would you be so special to her?
And does she act like this against all men?
Maybe it is just me but geez, maybe she is just being polite and getting customers in there or maybe she wants a greencard... Who knows? | |
