With a Korean girl. I have never done a blind date let alone date a Korean girl...what should I expect?
The "best" advice I've gotten so far is, "They will be fake. You pay for dinner, girl pays for coffee. If she doesn't answer you calls then it is over. If she likes you, you may meet up to 3 dates before she makes a final decision."
What is this, a job interview? |

Oh, I'm so fired up right now. Awesome.
Take it from me, I've done it all and seen it all.
Make plans, don't show up and ask her: "uhh, so where do you want to go?" Find a great spot! Where are you guys meeting btw? Age is important as well. Holy Moses, I don't know anything about you or your date...
You pay for dinner, she buys coffee/drinks. If she doesn't even offer to pay..well, that's not good!
Another really important factor is her English or your Korean. Do you speak Korean? Even if you only speak a modest amount, try. She'll dig that. But when you hit the high note, stop!!!
Most of my first blind dates were rather quick (as in we were just kinda sniffing around). No romantic walks in the park or "sky lounge" martini sipping. Don't expect too much. Just have a nice dinner, coffee/drinks if she's down, but you don't have to drag it out. If you like her, text her right after you say g'nite and call her as soon as she gets home.
Is it a job interview...not really. She just wants to get to know you. Find her interests and make her talk about herself. God, I have to bounce.
Lemme know how things turn out man!
I ROCK KICK ASS! WORD! |

i never thought i'd say it, but m-su may be right about most things in that post.....
that being said- i'd avoid a dinner as a first option because if it's obvious you two aren't getting along or the conversation is like pulling teeth, an hour staring at each other across the table will be painful for both of you.
maybe go for coffee first (you pay) and then from there you can see if things are going well and plan accordingly based on what you guys have in common.
i'm sure you'll do well!! |

You haven't read his other threads? They're good for a laugh.
I'm kind of surprised, having read as much of his other threads as I could tolerate, that encased in his usual arrogance is some actual decent advice here.
A huge factor will be the language barrier. Though not speaking each others language can make communicating a lot of fun in the right hands. |

Communication won't be a problem for me.
With that said, the middleman, or in this case middle woman, is currently dating an U.Ser and will be there to be support for her friend.
They told me to meet somewhere so I thought my friend had a plan. I asked and that was not the case....
Crap, I need to find a place in Apkujung fast. |

First, pick a cafe to meet at. She comes with her escort and you may come with yours. After intros are made, the escorts will leave you guys to chat over coffee. If appropriate, you may ask her to a meal at a nearby restaurant. Chat some more. Then at the end you must ask for her phone number. Not asking for it is insulting as it means that you had a terrible time and don't ever want to see her again. Even if you had a bad time, you would ask for it and just never call her, which spares her feelings somewhat.
Edit:
Forgot to mention. If you do like her, then you set up the next meeting with her before you say your goodbyes.
Also do not pick a Chinese chachiang mein restaurant. Doing so means that you do not care what she thinks of you since chachiang mein is cheap and messy. God, I could talk about Korean dating etiquette for days.  |
