Why do Irish men?
Comments
-
I'm from Pennsylvania, underneath New York. You should go to the States, you'd be rolling in the men! It'd be the same problems at the end of the day, though.
I'm an American, it's what we call them. I wouldn't even know what else to refer to it as, except maybe a "dinner thing". Certainly not trying to piss you off.
Very nice heard loads about Pennsylvania
I might be going to la in the summer to visit my bf brother,there wont be many men around me he might kill them lol
:D
Well call me old school thats what i call them aswell

Why when they get to age of about 24 they start to get beer bellies and not take care of themselves like foreign men?
Cause there probably married to an irish girl, realised theve made the biggest mistake of their life and know there lifes over.
Why do they get Loud and drink way to much?
To try and forget about their irish wife.
Why do they show respect more to foreign women then they do to their own?
In hope that maybe just maybe some foreign chick that know how to treat a man might rescue them from their irish wife.
Sorry to hear you feel like that,Not nice when your not happy 0 -

I gotta find it incredibly interesting that you seem to be ignoring everyone else's posts and only the ones from women. It's like you started this discussion but are unwilling to hear any sides from it, in case yours is wrong.Gotcha. Thought I had enraged your inner pedant. I think in the States a date isn't very serious. We can go on a date with someone after only one meeting, and at the end of the night if nothing comes of it that's fine. That's why we can date several people at the same time without causing offense, it just isn't a big deal there. Here it must mean more?
Generally the only thing irish people would hear about dating is from american tv shows and sitcoms, so to try an emulate their behavior it becomes something more serious and more important than it is, if that makes sense.0 -

The amount of times I've wanted to meet girls (yes, I guess you can call it a date) and their first idea is a pub is incredible.
And if you try to mention anything different (a cafe, a moonlit walk to some bench where you can sit and talk) they think you're being weird.
That makes sense the way you explained it, but how do people ever get to know each other? In the US that's the point of a date, I can't imagine how that'd be done drinking in a pub. (I never realized how American my approach to relationships is before.) 0 -

A one word answer, BEER.
We (irish) drink way too much of it, get a belly and can't do exrcise because of the hangovers. it's a very vicious circle.
Irish men in particular drink even more beer, because we know we are terrible at chatting to the fairer sex (see comments in previous 6 pages).
So we slowly spiral downwards.
Irish dating needs a total overhaul.0 -

Don't know if you'd call them the good auld days but.... There was a time not so very long ago when (if you were a bloke) you literally just decided who you'd marry. You'd land down to their auld fella with a bottle of whiskey and thrash out a dowrey.
Planned marriages. No dating bull. No checking out the hardware, or test driving the merchandise! Ya just hoped to fcuk yore Da didnt pick a right donkey for ya and that he didint live too far away to walk home now and then for a visit!
We are living the dream now girls!0 -

Now dont knock yourself never said Irish guys we rent decent hearted guys,Just the Irish guys need to take a stand and not be afraid to ask a woman out when they aren't drunk and dont ask a woman were she wants to go take her there.:)
Irish women have a problem,if a guy asks them where u wanna go they are all polite and say the cinema or pub or ah its ok you decide,when she says that means she would like to go to beach or cafe or lunch or dinner or ice skating or something else.
Forget i said anything about the whole weight thing sorry about that i didnt mean that
Just i feel if they did take care of themselves more so would the women and they all would feel better about themselves.0 -

Well to be honest ,it would need superhuman efforts to date 4 or 5 people in Ireland ( specialy all at once ) But the two timing is usually somebody cheating enjoying the best of both worlds until they decide who they want to be with ( or who makes the best offerThat's not good...even if it's only your first date with each guy?) 0 -
