I have 3 friends who go out with foreign person.
I think it is difficult to go out with someone having different native language for LONG time. It is easy to fall in love. But to keep is too difficult, I think.
It�s good if they can tell their thinking fluently as they want. But almost all people cannot. I think even people who can tell the thinking as they want cannot, because people have lived in different country. They have different life style, way of thinking, culture and so on. I think we cannot understand all of the culture of another country. Almost all people cannot tell about up to particular thinking.
Especially it�s so difficult if they live apart now. It is necessary to tell about their thinking, things what happened today and their own country EVERYDAY, because it is very important to understand each other.
I agree to go out with foreign person. I want to love other country�s girl.
But it�s difficult absolutely, I think.
What is the best way to keep a relationship?

There must be something in common among the people all over the world. And this world is becoming open. Thats why new civilization will be built. In the history of human being, some places like the Middle East was the site where people from different countries contribute their culture and develop it together.
Meanwhile, I reply this subject because I could read in English and understand your thoughts

I have friends who like foreigners because they invite them to their apartment in order to make love.

I think all Americans are like this. It is disgusting.

[wind926]

Thats normal. And it couldnt prove the existence of international love.

If you love so much, you can counquer everything. I want tell my event.

I study in Ankara and my girlfriend study in Izmir. There are diffenrent citys in my country. We met all weekends. One week Ankara, one week Izmir. Now, love so much each other. I think , we can counquer all issues.

Distance is not important for us.

Hi all, interesting topic...hmm I agree with the person who says that when you have contact with someone you think you love only via internet, you might idealize her/him and you could tend to see only positive things , you can dream of the person thinking that he/she is the man/woman of your dreams but you REALLY DON'T know what the true is because it's possible just seeing the other person into her/his DAILY LIFE !!!!...but I'm involved in 1 situation like that myself!!!!....although we haven't met in person yet, we talk on the phone, write letters to each other and are permanently in touch , I think we could have a future together but everything depends on what happens when he visits me ( which is possible next year, God willing!) ...he's so wonderful!!!
So, in short, international love CAN work well but it depends on the people involved and how honest you both are and HOW determined you both are to manage everything!
Good luck to the ones who are in this situation!... , greetings from South America!

Zaryna: you are talking about cyberlove. This is a new subject, I think (but a very interesting one).

[Zaryna]

But anyway, thank you for your observation!
Take care! ...interesting topic though!!

I have experience in International love.

I am English living in Beijing. I married a Chinese boy. He was handsome and he was very good in bed. He gave me two children.

I had a very good job with a very high salary. He was poor from a poor family. I gave him lots of money. Gradually he started going out drinking heavily, gambling and playing Mah Jong.

He started his own business with my money. He bought very expensive cars. One day he dissapeared. Five weeks later I found out he had been arrested. He was sent to prison for two years. It was something to do with renting his premises to crooks. I never found out exactly.

My advice to anyone thinking about cross-country marriage --- don't

love is unreasonable, no matter what nationality it is, in china ,we may think it relys on the feeling of affinity.but actually ,in my opinion,may it better for the lovers in the same coutry,i think it's better in communication and finding common.

I am a Japanese boy. I study international culture now. My opinion is no border of national. I want to look from a global point of view.
