British Men and Dating

Post Reply New Topic

Ooh! I've always wanted to be seduced by a man! It would be a welcome change from me trying (and failing) to seduce men myself.

haha, go to a holiday resort in Italy, the Italian guys are like vultures

Shock! Horror! Women confused by UK men "not being all the same"

If only she knew the truth

Come on boys, you know very well we're all exactly the same

Let's go out on the tiles lookin' for a shag, eh, me ol' muckers?

Bob's yer uncle, mate!

I'm really sorry, British guys. I didn't mean to come across as ignorant. I only wanted to find out if the things I read online were true; I wanted to find out if the Englishmen were any different than Americans as far as dating goes...

But seriously, cut me a little slack, would you? I mean, for goodness sakes, I've been living in Idaho my whole life. Idaho. The furthest I've ever traveled from my house was Laguna Beach, California. And that was only for, like, a day. Despite my worsening case of wanderlust, I'm afraid I really don't know what people are like outside of America (or Idaho, for that matter).

As they said in the Twilight Zone episode, people are alike all over.

Rose my dear, I think you'll find that 1. I'm only joking, so there's no need to cut you any further slack 2. I replied individually to your entire post, so I've cut you plenty of slack already!

...Bob's yer uncle, mate!

ahh, I think its pretty sweet really. But I mean, you could find a nice guy in the US. Whats been wrong with the ones you've tried dating?

This made me grin.

Unless you're game for a fair search, chances are you may have to find a Christian dating community or the like if you're waiting 'till marriage. We're quite a secular state. They're around, I can't deny it, but in uneven clumps, though it's still worth a try. Also, you shouldn't really limit yourself to one country. Perhaps were the closest in culture to Yanks

I used to try to avoid obsessing over men of certain foreign nationalities. I thought it would be unrealistic and superficial.

Then I moved to an American city where there are a lot of foreigners. I randomly met a man from a country I was obsessed with and experienced something like love at first sight. We have a lot in common, and there's a strong connection aside from the respective interest in each other's nationalities.

I work in retail and have something of a social life so I meet people of his nationality at least once every day. If he were to leave me, I think I could easily meet another nice guy from the same country right here where I live. I hate to think of such a good thing ending, but in the interest of being realistic, it's nice to know that I'll never be forced to go back to American men because I don't think I could . . . I think I've been "converted".

Watch out - it could happen to you! People are basically the same everywhere, but if you really like a certain country or accent, it can easily become a requirement for attraction, especially once you've experienced it first-hand. I think that's just how attraction works for most people.

So, IdahoRose, before attempting a cross-continental relationship, maybe you could consider relocating to a large, multi-national American city? Or at least looking for British men living in America? They are out there. I have seen them.

Don't worry we were only foolin around the British LOVE humour I think it gives our existence meaning Anyhow you’re really nice just be prepared to forget any preconceptions and good luck with your search, also if you ever end up living in the UK "BEWHERE THE WEATHER"

England is like most other countries in the sense that some guys are nice and some are complete jerks. dont trust sources that generalise people they are often wrong.

This is the part where truth be told from an interesting perspective.

The only true way to find out is to find out for yourself. As a British man, I am an exemplary employee where I work to learn English from. My pronunciation is an excellent aid to them to learn from, with pedantic spelling.

When I date, I try to be modern and when I go for a drink, I try to get away with buying all the drinks. I do try to dress for the occasion but most of the time I just feel more comfortable in my own clothes and this makes me more relaxed.

No-one has said anything on the "chav's" lol, the humour on this is that it has an abbreviation "Council Housed And Violent" whether it be true or not it something else, at the end of the day, I know some of the people like this as you describe and they aren't all as you have heard. I would avoid parks at night though

All I can say in relation to sex is "If it doesn't feel right at that moment, do not continue" Ok, maybe more, waiting for the guy to finish is not good, get involved. The sex you're referring to is similar to watching the TV ... Then someone tells you you gotta switch it on.
