    Too many to list.

    The worst cultural issues came when I was dating a man from Kuwait while in flight school. Thing that sticks in my mind was he had an overflowing trashcan in the kitchen. First time I saw it I tried picking up the garbage to take it out. He stopped me and said, "No, only hired people touch garbage." Makes no sense to me, he is too good to take out the trash but would rather live in a nasty ass home?

    I like all of them, and at the same time I have a beef with all of them. I guess I just like the ones that I know personally. I can't really have a quarrel with someone whom I don't even know or have never met.


    Isn't it weird?;)

    Dutch, British (white), British (black), South African, Nigerian, Japanese.
    There were a couple of culture issues with the South African and the Japanese guy.
    The Japanese still have a very different outlook on the role of women. This guy was very modern and open minded but I could tell a few things bothered him about me and my behaviour. I'm quite petite so I do in theory fit into the whole 'little woman' role so when he got to know me and found out that I'm not a traditional little Russian girl, he was quite taken back. I drink, party, watch football, swear like a sailor and have my own brain and my own opinions and I think he had a few problems with that.

    The South African guy (mentioned him briefly in another thread).... he was just a prick :smt102

    You missed my point; I don’t have any issues at all with any of them.


    I’ve dated quite a few different nationalities, I just happen to have a much stronger preference for one in particular.

    LOOOOOL
    Well at least u could have been shure, if u have had married this guy, somebody else than u would clean ur shit now!!!:smt023
    BTW I love Kuwait. LOL It is a crazy country.

    But This leads me to one question.
    Why woman alway start cleaning thier boyfriends stuff??? I realy don´t understand that.
    That is why I like Black American men. Those I know always clean behind them self.

    The only other cultre I datet was German men, and I have issues with them.
    After a while they stop taking showers on a daily bases( they switch to once a week or less) and they misstake thier woman as thier cleaning lady.
    Sorry but when both have a job, and do the equal pay for everthing..... equal work at home...

    I don't clean up my bf's stuff. If he isn't grown up enough to do it himself, I see that right away and KNOW that he's not right for me. A dirty bathroom, or whatever is enough to keep me away lol. There ya all go - now you know how to completely turn me off. ahahahaha.

    I want a man, not a child hoping his momma comes around to do his laundry and cleaning. I have better things to do with my time. :smt015

    Because it is just so much more simple to pick something up than to bitch about it. My current husband isnt as neat as I would like. He had a maid but the time between when she was there I did notice drinking glasses in the living room and stuff. But I love him because he is a wonderful person and treats me wonderfully.

    I have my own quirks, he has his and yet we still find the capacity to love one another. :smt049:smt049

    Hehe I also don't get along too well with German guys. Maybe because I'm not what many consider "typical German"

    Funny
    the boyfriend my mom had, after the divorce, was an Afghan. I was such a mean kid with him and he always stayed quiet and calm. My mom even told him that he can beat me up, but he refused to do so. Now he is married to an other Polish woman, got the German nationality and changed his name from Abduhla into something less islamic. His dauthers are raised in the mothers religion.

    Woah. I'm glad you were able to get away Robina.

    I briefly dated a Pakistani in college. We ended up just losing touch during the summer break.
