 |
|
Better yet, calling all females and their dating experience with Korean men. Do you find that they move too slow and give mixed signals? I'm in a Kyunggi-do Gwangju so I'm not sure about the fast & furious Seoul and Busan guys there but here, they seem to go really slow. What are some dating "do's" and "don'ts". They seem to be really clicky and big on the age periphery. Any assertive ladies out ther that asked out a Korean guy and what happened? How do they look at western women? Any enlightenment would be helpful!
I've been here since April 2008 and have not had any "소개팅's" Never thought I'd be interested in dating a Korean guy but here I am needing some of your help!!!!  |

| Interesting thread. I do wonder how the girls and especially guys get on with the local population of lasses. After having lived in the States etc for say 15+ years how is the relation with someone who say has never traveled much and not left Korea to live anywhere else? Is there a noticable difference in personality and ways of looking at things? Are you as an international Korean expected to find attachments to cultural things that you may not feel? |

| Closest I came to dating a Korean guy was a gyopo. Not from NY or LA. But he was teaching English and was really bad at English - and not in the second language sense because it wasn't! |

| A Korean-American friend of mine dated a few Koreans. She had a lot of complaints that they would buy her thoughtful gifts like diet books (and no she's quite skinny). |

| Have you ever noticed with gyopos that all the overweight, facially challenged ones (ie the majority) claim only to date western guys but never admit that�s because no self respecting K-guy would be seen dead with them. They are reduced to dating FOB Canadians, until they get a clue and start chasing mini-skirted, svelte Korean girls. |

I guess since we're foreigners here, we can also be considered fresh off the boat too.
And anyways, the vast majority of gyopo women I've met in Seoul have been extremely hot. I'm not sure what exactly you were referring to. |

Are they really that bad? I had a gyopo friend tell me the same thing about LA gyopos. Why is that anyways?
However, I've never heard it about gyopos from NYC.
The coolest gyopos I've met thus far have been from the south. Save for Crown J |

I look at them and see it's a matter of cultural taste. I'm around the same height as them and not really overweight though i am more like a size 6. Most of them are really tiny, as in not just short but shrunken. Though i could still lose a few pounds and could without much effort but i'm not someone who pays a lot of attention to my looks either.
I could grow my hair long again, wear the fashionable attire. I just cut it Even sex it up and wear a mini and heels but that is not my thing.
So, it is true and no self respecting K-guy would be seen dead with me when he can have a barbie but then that's all she is, a barbie and there is more where that came from.
But even naturally, I look as good as them without all the extras. I even don't need to do surgery as many of them have had or needed to do. I've always had eyelids and very thick eyelashes which is unusual for asians and a symmetrical face. Actually my face is more well proportioned than most of them
What this means is with a little effort, I could look better than them but I ain't gonna do it because i'm just not in a prissy mood. I am very comfortable in my sneakers, jeans and whatnot. |

Dear god save me from the beating that's about to ensue,
But I would just like to ask you female Gyopos...
Are you ALL bat crazy? Or is it only the ones I have the pleasure of bumping into?
Never a sane female Gyopo I've ever met in America, or Korea. All of them have these "STELLAR" personalities that outcrazy Ronald McDonald. I'm mostly talking about socially. They have the BIGGEST vendetta against people.
Biotch doesn't like me, I'm gonna stab her in the face with my 1 inch nail design."
I'm talking emotionally ... And guys don't give me the "all women are crazy talk" because gyopos are the piece de resistance.
"My Boyfriend is going to break up with me... I have to do something, let me break the condom and have his baby"
I could give you 3-4 page examples of it, but I'd rather wait till someone calls me out on it.
I'll admit it, theres one female gyopo I'm somewhat interested in now, but god, she just strikes me as the, "if you ever break up with me, I will drown your ass in a vat Kimchi"
I'm just not ready to die ladies, just not ready. |

I think the korean girls in america are much outwardly nastier than the ones in korea except for the churchy ones. If you want to meet a decent korean girl, she most probably would be a real church involved one and a college student and more on the clean cut side.
The rest are like these whorified, pimpified korean girls but a lot more tackier and outwardly agressive. I mean, i saw this girl who was wearing a mini so short and tight, she wouldn't be able to sit down right and spiked heels. If I was looking for sex only and was in this crazy heat then maybe i would wear that but what self-respecting woman would wear something like that? considering the only thing a guyis going to think about is sex and see you as a piece of meat!
I'm neither, I'm an agnostic and a tomboy. I mean, i'm really not a tomboy but compared to their style, i am as it's relative. And that's not one of these wannabe gangster types either, i see sometimes even here.
I've noticed on just about EVERY female here, there seems to be only a variation of ONE style. it's not even just feminine, it's borderline whorish. Unlike japanese, who have a myriad of different styles and subcultures from punk to grunge to goth and feminine as well and a mix of others, korean women don't seem to want a choice or don't have a choice. Maybe it's not their fault, maybe it's the korean men who have done this to them.
I have yet to see a korean with colored hair besides a wannabe blonde or orange. i mean really colored hair or a different clothing style and this is supposed to be a real mega city? |

Not just korean men, Asian men are so boring.
At least white men are good kissers.
If you want to date Asian man, choose Chinese man, at least they know how to cook. |

there's a *world* of difference. you will never truly understand the mindset of Koreans who have never lived abroad.
1) native K girls - 100% princesses. not 99.9% - 100% Not meaning demanding, look at me, etc (which is true somewhat).. but they are looking for their knight in shining armor .. no matter how independent, wacky, westernized they seem.. the cinderella complex is ingrained.. heed my words.
2) native K guys - have no clue about dating .. only to 'take care' of the girl and to get jealous. that's about it.
3) co-depedency is not a bad thing but the goal of a relationship in Korea. native Ks love asking 'did u eat something?' because that is the level of their relationship.. it is very basic yet deep and immersive.. they want to know if you are physically ok. the signs of affection are different.

Is this a bad thing?
Damn, this is one of my favorite things about this country.
I'm sensing some jelousy on your part? Fair? |
