Posted: Mon Apr 19, 2004 8:28 am Post subject: Dating advice, just in Korea? |
|
|
I am just curious about all the people that post blah blah blah, what do I do on a first date with a K-girl. Do you have problems with girls back home too? Not saying that I think you have problems with girls in general (lol.. maybe I am), but why can't ya figure it out yourself. Isnt it possible to go on a few dates, read into the korean culture (I believe i am a good judge of people) and to begin to "understand" what Korean girls are looking for. |

He could just be trying to be polite and make sure he doesn't botch something from a cultural standpoint... |

wow, i even get a "putZ" insult from "the so called man" wow, am I ever doing good today. For the record I never said I was a "dating expert" I am just curious why people need to have dating help on this forum. I never once said I have it all figured out. I will probably get insulted again, but that cool, if it makes u feel better about yourself so be it. |

Depends on what kind of girl you're looking for. A fair share of 'em in Korea would rather date a semi-ugly guy that has money and flashes the cash over some guy that just looks great (they save the "looks great" guy for just play on the side).
Just a little insight into 20's Korean culture. |

lol.. well i am fine with that.. haha.. i for one am not coming to korea in hopes of finding a wife. I am coming to experience the culture for a year, have a good time, save some money and than come back to canada, continue my education. I am not saying i am not open to "finding" a korean girl, but if it happens it does, if not there are lots of western girls back home. |

Well, royjones, I think you could use the support, so lemme say I agree with you.
First, its lame to ask anyone but a good bud for dating advice. Useless too. Who takes strangers' advice about anything, let alone personal stuff?
Second, at this stage in the game, it better be about a specific situation. You're done high school & still 'can't figure girls out'? No-one has. Because...
(Third,) everybody is an individual! Even Korean girls! No, I'm not there, but I've met (and dated) girls from diverse backgrounds and nationalities, including Japanese.
Was my Japanese gf the same as her friends? Of course not.
Honestly, I read some posts here and wonder if some ESLers have met -really met- a native outside of school ever.
Also, as I know I'll get flamed, re-read #2 -I don't say I have the answers, I'm saying its stupid to think anyone does -about anyone, let alone a whole race. |

You can classify these guys into 4 types.
1) No friends to talk to.
2) They are ashamed to ask their friends
3) They are trolling
4) They have time to kill at work. |

Because this is a general korea discussion forum, and with things that are important to you, another perspective is always good, especially from several people at the same time. Why not hey?
I have found that there are a few common cultural characteristics among Asian women, and I would have been glad of some knowledge of them when I first got here.
Amusing how your online persona is so important to you that you like to announce your arrival by implying that you are so good with women that you wouldn't want advice cloaked as a question about those who are honest enough to admit they do. Would you have made the same querie about people who ask for advice about how to deal with their Korean bosses? |
