    Honestly, I have heard different things of what to expect when going to Ireland.
    I'm not going to Ireland to hook up with anyone, but how can you go to another country and not be abit interested in the opposite sex?
    I want answers, straight forward and through some other stuff in there if you would like. Just getting an overview of it all. I definately expect to here some banter on here, so bombs away. ;)
    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves?
    2.You think were stuck up.
    3.Should I definately stay away from temple bar if I dont want some guy hitting me up because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner?
    4. What do you find attractive about american women or unattractive (please leave out the fact that alot of american are fat, lol)?
    5. a story about when you met an american women?

    lol, oh lordy.

    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves? I personally find it sexy
    2.You think were stuck up. No IMO alot of Irish Women are very stuck up but then again it depends on the person
    3.Should I definately stay away from temple bar if I dont want some guy hitting me up because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner? You'll problaby get that anywhere you go tbh
    4. What do you find attractive about american women or unattractive (please leave out the fact that alot of american are fat, lol)? Depends on the women really Id tend to look at her and not where's she from the accent is a turnoff tho not the deep south or Texas accents but the sort of accents that American women have on the telly (Like OMG etc etc that accent)
    5. a story about when you met an american women?

    lol, oh lordy.

    I wouldnt be worrying about what people think come off and enjoy yourself

    I can only speak in general terms having meet only a few American women and never having dated any but I would say of the ones I meet there negative qualities tended to be how loud and over confident they were. How confidence is often fine and an admirable quality but with the girls I have meet it presented itself in the fact that they never thought themselves wrong and took over conversations.

    Positive qualities where despite the serotypes of fatness most took care of their appearance had a good figure dressed well. Also the stupidity many people associate with Americans was not really there at all but I guess these were American women who had traveled outside of America so know a bit more of the world.

    You should know by now, that the pictures aren't real unless they are holding a piece of paper with their name on it, and a spoon too.

    Well I tend to run around with a knife, so if I meet someone with a spoon.

    I'm Irish and live in a college town in the States.
    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves?
    There are two southern accents. One is a soft, subtle accent that's adorable. The other one sounds like you're an annoying hick.
    2.You think were stuck up.
    Some are. No worse than many women from south Dublin.
    3.Should I definately stay away from temple bar if I dont want some guy hitting me up because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner?
    Don't go to Temple Bar if you want to find Irish guys. You will find people looking for a one-night-stand wherever you go, but you will find genuine people also.
    4. What do you find attractive about american women or unattractive (please leave out the fact that alot of american are fat, lol)?
    Attractive: brown eyes, more naturally-tanned skin than here.

    Unattractive: the way a lot of American women dress is more "out there" than I personally like.
    5. a story about when you met an american women?
    Extremely cute law student hears my accent at a party, "OMG you're Irish!" It takes approximately 0.8 seconds to have chatted her up sufficiently to get her number. We seem to get on well. Somebody produces a bottle of wine, I don't remember too much after this... only the sense the next morning that I should apologise to people. She doesn't seem all that interested anymore when I text a couple of days later. You live you learn :pac:

    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves?

    Depends - if its coming from somebody like emily procter its fantastic :)

    I like the the southern accent though i suspect most wouldnt. I also like all the trappings of the south but they get a hard time in the media which is pretty much our only reference for it in ireland

    i was in a queue for the cloak room in the savoy in cork one night when a girl in front of me turned around and asked me if i brought my spoon.

    now, earlier in the night i was at a 21st, and was in the kitchen of the pub eating some food when i saw all these spoons and thought that it was time that we had more than one teaspoon in the student house, so i grabbed 5 or 6 of them.

    so when the girl in the savoy asked me if i had a spoon, i took out the ones that i 'borrowed' from the pub. and she thought i was a weirdo!!

    American girls are fcuking awesome. That's my own experience at least! :D

    I love the southern belle, but that's just me, some just wouldn't.
    People who travel are generally not stuck up in my experience.
    Temple Bar is most likely to get you nothing but a ONS because most people who go out there aren't actually from dublin, particularily at weekends
    American girls (from experience) know how to handle themselves as people, and are generally fun.
    Not gonna tell any stories just yet because the story is still being written.

    1. Love the southern accent. Its a big plus.
    2. No ive found Americans to be very friendly people in general.
    3. Stay away from temple bar, its a kip. Loads of better places in Dublin.
    4. Positives: Up for fun, generally not shy, different perspective on life. Negatives: Sometimes naive, may not always get our sense of humour, may have trouble understanding Irish accent.
    5. I met an American girl, she said hi and I said hows it going.

    In America at the moment. Love American girls, especially my one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    I lived in Chicago for a while and loved them. Very friendly and they melted at the sound of the oul Irish brogue so what's not to love?

    On the downside, holding a conversation with many was quite a chore. Not saying they're all thick but jaysus I met a fair few who were.

    All in all a very positive experience.

    I moved to San Diego for 6 weeks, moved in with a bunch of girls, left Ireland behind, some people said that life isn't enough, but that's because they think they were better than us.

    It was lonely in San Diego, but I didn't let it get me down, cause i've been there before, but I know better now, It was my one last storm, before the calm, just doing what needed to be done.

    The night before I left to come back to Ireland, We slept all day, and drank all night, we were not wasting our time.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    I've yet to meet an American girl who wasn't friendly, and not stuck up her own hole. Unlike some Irish women. I find American girls more approachable. They just seem to give off a more friendly vibe. In saying that, everyone is individual and has different tastes and pet peeves. Just be yourself when you come over - and if they don't like it, they aren't worth talking to in the first place. Enjoy :)

    1. No.

    3. Is that code for 'I'm looking for a one-night stand. Should I try Temple Bar?'
    4. California tan? They'll give you the time of day without prior written permission from the Pope? They often understand the appeal of guns?
    5. I live in California. I've met quite a few. Which one do you want me to talk about?

    I meet an awfull lot of Americans and I don't think I've ever met one I didn't get on with. that being said, most people will judge everyone on an individual basis (i havent read the thread so im preparing to be proved wrong) so I couldnt say they are all stuck up or nice for that matter.

    Avoiding temple bar is good advise for anyone, except the palace on fleet street. Great pub

    1. Yes, both types.
    2. No. Most are overly friendly like excitable puppies. Cute but after a few minutes I want to kick them out of my way.
    3. Depends on whether you are up for a one night stand. Do you do ladies or just men.
    4. The fact that everything is analysed by them and then those analyses are further subject to analysis. Does the word anal come from analysis or analysis come from anal? My analysis of your various threads is that you are a dimwit looking for a Irish ride and not being very subtle about it.
    5. I met an American woman when I bought a newspaper the other day. She was working at the petrol (gas station). She said, "have a nice day." I said, "yeah right." I have loads more of those stories. Would you like to read some more of them.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 845 ✭✭✭yupyup7up


    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves? I like different accents so wouldnt bother me.
    2.You think were stuck up.Not from my experience. Irish girls can be very stuck up anyway so wouldnt be a surprise!
    3.Should I definately stay away from temple bar if I dont want some guy hitting me up because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner? Youll be in ireland, everyones gonna hit on you when theyre pissed.
    4. What do you find attractive about american women or unattractive (please leave out the fact that alot of american are fat, lol)?
    if they cant take a joke! here in limerick for example, everyone jokes about anything and no one generally gets annoyed. basically people can take a slagging and get a laugh out of it. I'd imagine americans would get offended at a lot of stuff
    5. a story about when you met an american women?
    I have 2. I was have a pint on my own one day and some american one tried chatting me up by saying "I know that look, you wanna just go ahead and kill, yourself right?" I just couldnt stop laughing! another one asked me to dance one night and was talking to her for a while, got a laugh and that but I think taht our sense of humour is TOTALLY different! I like the way american girls will come up and chat away to you and approach you if they like you even when they are sober!

    Spent the Summer in New York. The women were class. However, most of them were of Southern American descent. They were amazing. But the American women were class too but dickheads. They were hard to listen to. Then there were the munters. And when they were bad, they were terrible.

    lol, oh lordy.

    1. No, it can be quite sexy.

    2. No, not stuck up. Insular, maybe. What I find from the Americans I know is that they have a very limited view of the world. Which I guess, is down to the news networks in the US. They tend only to focus on issues that directly affect the US. Case in point- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUWDpAhcHEI#t=4m44s
    But I wouldn't accuse Americans of being stuck-up. I do think the average American has their heart in the right place. The Americans I've met have always been very pleasant to associate with. No real bad experiences from them.

    3. You should stay away from Dublin... Ireland... men in general if you don't want some guy hitting on you because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner.

    4. The Americans I know and have met are generally very positive and upbeat. I like that about them.

    5. Too long. People wont read.

    1. Does the southern accent get on your nerves? No
    2.You think were stuck up. Not at all, find American girls easier to talk to on average
    3.Should I definately stay away from temple bar if I dont want some guy hitting me up because he wants a one night stand with a foreigner? Guys want one night stand with foreign or native girls wherever you go, temple bar is no different other that you'll run into more tourists
    4. What do you find attractive about american women or unattractive (please leave out the fact that alot of american are fat, lol)?Usually good fun. Probably a bit better looking on average than Irish women but not as good looking as continental Europeans

    I much prefer talking to American women than Irish, Any time I can have a conversation that doesn't revolve around whether you're "From the Northsoide or the Southsoide" is always nice.
