Wooing a lady from an Oriental culture...

keanooo · 2011-12-15 20:59:08

I am in the early stages of wooing a Chinese girl I met on the train recently. I have never been that "in to" orientals before, but she seems lovely... I am concerned that there may be cultural issues down the road... and I am not looking for a short-term / medium-term relationship. I would be grateful for any advice that…

I am concerned that there may be cultural issues down the road... and I am not looking for a short-term / medium-term relationship. I would be grateful for any advice that would be useful to me at this tender stage.

(Advice sought from all-comers, be they those who have experience of such things, or if you have a hunch that some of your words might help in guiding me).

Honestly just approach her like you would any other girl.

Hey OP,

Where abouts is she from? If it's China you should be prepared to commit fairly sharpish as this is part of the Chinese culture, that is assuming of course that she holds with tradition. If she does then keep your distance and be very respectful, kissing and holding hands is serious business to people with traditional chinese values. I have lots of chinese friends, so that's where I'm getting my info from. Other than that just threat her as any other girl you're "wooing", be respectful, gentlemanly and just show her a good time when you're out.

best of luck.

Edit: just reread your op, Chinese yeah, just be very respectful.
