eastern europeans relationships

Kintarō Hattori

I've been seeing my Polish girlfriend for about 18 months now. Of her friends half are seeing fellow countrymen, and the other half Irishmen. I don't think they have a set priority for who they date.

My mate is seeing a Latvian girl. Thought she was a bit stuck up at first and was here for the usual ride of the celtic tiger.
But it was really just a language barrier, she has made a reall effort to learn the lingo, get to know his friends and it aint about the money as she earns more than him now.

i think the EE women appear less manipulative , than there Irish counterparts . While i admit i will socialise better with Irish women, and have Irish "plutonic" women freinds, and yes i'm generalising, but the Celtic tiger , has produced a manipulative tough nosed Irish female , that is better looking , but less trustworthy , than from previous eras.

i have been out with a polish girl last year a few times and have just started goin out with another a few weeks ago and i have to say i think that they are a nice bunch entirely,very easy going and its comforting to do other things on a date besides ringing up mary murphy and askin her' does she fancy goin for a drink on friday',the girls def don't drink as much as our girls,from what i know they are very catholic which means that they wouldn't jump in the sack which is a good thing when starting a relationship compared to majority of irish girls that i have been had experiences with in the past:eek:

Harsh. The Irish women are changing becoming more americanised. Fact. But so are the men. It's a shame alright but it hasn't happened in my circle of friends and it never will, so let them off. I'm thinking of the fluffy booted femmes that are now 16ish. What'll it be like when that generation are in their 20's. The lads will be all waxed and everyone will have an american twang in their accent. Have any of yee noticed the american twang creeping in? I blame MTV.

I didn't mean that I wouldn't date a guy if they were broke but with the Eastern Europeans Men its different I have met a fair share and I am friends with some of them but I see it so many times when we are out and they are chatting to girls they never offer to buy a drink for them and then expect the girl to go home with them.
I know they are working their arses off to send money home but it is my own perference not to date them because face it you will be going out with a tight arse and I can pay my own way too but I wouldn't like to think I would be paying my own way all the time if dating a Eastern European. The Women are Fabulous Looking and they appreciate Irish Men because they treat them like Queens compared to what they are used to in their own Country, a friend of mine from Poland is with an Irish Lad for the last year and she informed me she feels like a celebrity doing the things that we take for granted when dating someone.

on this matter i think that you should really be buying your own drink if you want to make any impression with a gent of yor choice,is what i do is buy the first round and see how she reacts on the second round and if she acts like you she'd get the flick.....it just aint on lady!;)

With so many Eastern Europeans over here , male and female, and many of the female easy on the eye, and freindly to chat to, the problem is me and my freinds have found they only seam to want to "go out" /date there fellow country men . Have others found this, or are we just unlucky and lack the charm , and i wonder are the EE men so fussy - doubt it !!

It's not surprising, given the fact an awful lot of them come over here with zero English. IME it's usually only the skilled workers from EE who have decent English.

Quite hard to have a relationship with someone if you don't speak the same language :-)

What I am getting at is that is they don't offer to get the first round.... I always except a real man to offer to get the first drink and I do get the second round and so on and so forth for the night. Jesus I am not a money grabber I have a well paid job. Is it wrong to except men to act like gentlemen.:(

Come on, that's BS. The majority of them study English in school, as well as other european languages. Every Polish or Lithuanian person I've met (and I've met a lot!) speaks English. Obviously to different extents, but I never met anyone with "zero English". I think you're grossly exaggerating there.

certainly some of the Irish ones i dated were toxic, maybe radioactive is a bit harsh a term to use !!

_Poland_ is pretty Catholic, maybe also Lithuania to a lesser extent. I wouldn't think of the other accession states as being particularly Catholic even if historically so.

Sighhhh..... Yes that is what i mean by a gentleman.
I am not explaining myself anymore. My opinion is, I go out, a man chats me up, I except him to offer to buy first drink then I buy him one back and it goes that way all night. I am just expecting a bit of Manners. :mad:

Maybe you should voice that opinion with him, *youre not a real man, b!tch*, Im sure that would encourage him into buying you a drink...

Haha, see your PM.

well the vibe i get is that as was mentioned earlier poland and to a lesser extent the other EE countries are deeply catholic. most people in poland for instance can expect to be married by 20. the great thing for us is this seriously freaks out polish girls, as a result most polish guys are looking for a woman to marry while most polish girls are looking for a good time. hence why they get such a good write up by irish men. its like a perfect genetic match, we wanna get laid with no commitment and the polish girls wanna get laid with no commitment. unfortunetly this leaves polish guys in a bad place cause it only leaves em with irish girls and as someone else accidently said ALOT of them are toxic .

look at the brightside though, christ knows we need the infusion of new blood. ireland is a deeply inbred place, half the country is related to the other. take the dail, politics is a fairly media driven business now and that shower are STILL the best looking we can find!

I've met a lot too, and I work with Polish and Czech software developers, and as I said, it's only the skilled workers who have presumably been to university, who have what I would consider a good standard of English. The others who work in the service industry rarely have good English. Maybe the majority you have met have had great English but IME most don't, which, as I said, is going to be a barrier when it comes to having a relationship with an Irish person

There was a story about this (in the Herald I think) a few months back about Eastern Europeans coming over here with a couple of hundred euro and no English and often end up seriously depressed and even suicidal because they've come over here ill-equipped to find work and can't afford to get back home.

InFront

I think the point being made is that its extremely rare to hear of any eastern european immigrant with 'zero english'. Ive met people like this who told me they had no english but could tell me their name and things about themselves.
Zero english, as in a Thai orphan or someone from deep South America, isnt something you tend to come across amongst eastern europeans here.
