Korean Job Discussion Forums

My friend recently put her profile on match.com (US), and she decided to refine her criteria (in a date) because of a date she went on. She said the guy was like George Costanza (Seinfeld), but without the sense of humor. She's not a big drinker, but she had to drink on the date to stay focused on his endless chatter about himself and his fab job. He wrote her an e-mail the next day, thanking her for "an enchanted evening". She told him she didn't think they were a good match.

I know another guy that is a recovering alcoholic. He said at the height of his drinking, he would have to pull his car over on the way to a date's house and down a six pack. Sometimes he would pick his date up, and then down a six pack with her in the car .

Any stories?

Here's my only strange "date" story in Korea. I met the girl in Sinchon and she was with a male friend. We went to Ehwa Women's University and then for lunch. They ordered some food and didn't explain what it was, just that it was good. I really didn't like it. Later I found out it was seundae.

Next we separated from the guy and headed back to her place. She brought me downstairs to her freezing basement apartment and inexplicably handed me a pack of seaweed. I was incredibly confused.

Then she made me turn my back while she changed. I was still confused by the seaweed.

Later we met up with a bunch of her friends. Aside, I asked one of the guys if she was single because I was interested in her. He said "She's my girlfriend."

Close call. Close close call.

She changed, basically in front of you, yet she had a b/f? Maybe the seaweed was a present^^

Technically behind me. Oh, I forgot to mention, on the way to her apartment, she told me she hates foreigners and she doesn't want any in her country. Mixed signals there, huh?

This was back home, but she would not stop talking about the other swim instructor that she wanted to kill and how she hated almost everyone at the place she was lifeguarding at. And don't get her started on everyone else there. Anyways, this was five minutes into the first date

This is from an email that I sent to friends...


I have been dating a few girls in Korea so sooner or later I was going to get a crazy one.

I got her�

Before I met her she had asked me 3 times if I loved her, 5 times if we could get married and about 10 times if we could have sex. You may be thinking that she thought I was special, but she had asked about 5 guys the same things (yes, she told me). Over MSN, she showed me the photos of the guys she wanted to date/marry (from the dating website). She called them by their first name, like she was already friends with them.

She is 20 and a virgin. She asked if I have kissed/touched a girls v�geena/made sex. She told me about how she and her friends would touch each others breasts and their v�geenas would get wet. She told me about how she wanted to have sex. She also detailed how her hymen was burst from riding a bike, so her mother wouldn�t know if she had sex (I�m not sure if her mother used to inspect her and then stopped after the bike incident).

I was supposed to meet her on Saturday so I thought I would have a lazy morning, then go to the gym in the afternoon and then meet her at 8 pm. At 3pm (as I was heading out the door to go to the gym she called. She asked if I could meet at 5. I said no. She said �But Im here NOW.� I said �I�ll be there at six. So after doing a few things at home, I was ready to leave at 4.50. As I was leaving my apartment she called again. �I can�t meet you because I am very sick.� I said ���but you just said that you wanted to meet earlier than we had planned�.OH�.OK OK�.Bye� I couldn�t be assed working it out.

I then chatted to her on MSN a few hours later. She had met a guy in the afternoon and she had lost her virginity to him. She had �many sex� and also she �ate his semen.�

That night, I went out and had a night of too many beers and white Russians. I got home in the sunlight at 8 am (I used to feel bad about doing it as I am the only white guy in my area so maybe Koreans see my as an ambassador of white folk). As it was 8 am, the hangover was already kicking in. I went to sleep with the sun beating in through my huge bedroom windows�and through the white curtains (increasing the intensity of the light that was killing me) at 11 am I woke up. As we have all done after a night of beer-fuelled crazyness I thought I had lost my phone in the taxi, so I logged on to MSN and asked 4 people if they could call my phone so I could find it. She called and asked if I could meet her. So I said yeah. She told me �I will wear miniskirt to show my leg.� I said �I can meet you at 2 pm. At 2 pm, about 5 minutes away from the meeting point, my phone rang. �WHERE ARE YOU�? I�m about 5 minutes away. �OK�OK�..IM WEARING MINISKIRT TO SHOW MY LEG.� I was hoping that this was a grammatical mistake and that she was fully mobile

When I met her I didn�t even notice if she had one leg or two as I was too busy staring at the thing attached to the top of her neck. Her eyes brows were HUGE�they went � of the way up her head�and down her eye lids. And where her forehead wasn�t covered with "fur" it was covered with sweat and spots.

She asked �do I have beautiful leg�? I said �oh yes,� but what I was thinking was �how can I kill this girl and burn the evidence without the cops knowing.� She was also wearing high heels for the first time. She told me. I watched as this monster on stilts gangled down the street. She asked if we could go to a motel.

I said �we should talk first� but what I was thinking was �why doesn�t this girl have someone who looks after her.� Her voice was so loud. As I was buying us hot chocolate at Starbucks (after she had asked for the difference in price between each of the 4 sizes�not the actual price, but the difference IN price like a child would when they are valuing the price per volume increase). As we were being served, the girl behind the counter was laughing (I later found out that this is the place where she brought her lover from the previous day; I can understand why the servers were laughing). After I ordered the drinks, she was asking if I could pay for the motel (her loud voice meant that the servers could hear what she was saying) and I had to say �shush��I told �it� to sit while I waited for our drinks.

She asked for a green straw and quickly shouted when I (intentionally) got her the other type of straw. She begged me to have sex. She said she really wanted to go to a motel (again, her loud voice meant that people could hear). I was getting very worried. This is when thoughts of escape started to enter my head.

As I mentioned, I had only had a few hours sleep and was very hung over so I was feeling the heat. I said �I have to go to the bathroom.� The bathroom was located outside around the back of the building. When I came back, I asked her what she had in her bag. She had a bible. I mentioned that �sex before marriage is a sin.� She said� "�..is it? I didn�t know. �Can we go to motel today�? It was like telling a kid that you can�t take him to the circus. But he is too simple to understand so his depression visibly lasts for a few seconds�..and then he asks you again expecting an answer in the affirmative. She said she had to go to church at 1 o�clock (it was now 2:15). I said hopefully �well you better go now�.it�s 2:15.� She said �Is it�Its ok, I can be late for it.� I told her I had to go to the bathroom because I was feeling pretty rough. I might be sick. I went to the toilet and enjoyed the cool air. I was thinking if I should just go home. As soon as I walked in Starbucks she shouted �were you sick?� I had to �shush� her from 20 feet away.

After a few more questions about being her boyfriend, getting married and (of course) going to a motel today, I decided to go to the toilet again and just catch the subway home. 30 minutes later, she called me six times. I ignored her. I went to buy some clothes and hangover food.

When I logged on to MSN the next, she messaged me�
This is the conversation...
Crazy : Why did you leave me yesterday?
Mike : Im sorry, I was sick.
Crazy: Why didn�t you tell me?
Mike: I was ashamed.
Crazy: I understand
Mike: Yeah�.I was sick all over myself. It was disgusting.
Crazy; Im sorry to hear that.
Mike: Its ok. Im ok today
Crazy: Can we go to motel today?

[RACETRAITOR]

Yeah, that one's scary. I'd bet she wasn't a virgin before randomly meeting this guy anyway.

[MorgolKing]

In shoes I'm 5'9" on a good day, and once had a date with 6'1" blond, but it doesn't stack up to the above, so I'll stop now.
