I have to agree with you on that note Pasioniberica regards German men. However, we do get the good, bad & the ugly in all nationalities. I do find German men "in the general sense" to be more mature & reliable in my own personal experience.

jac379: Apparently, the Welsh are supposed to be the most truthful people in the world.

To be honest, I think they made it up.


Would you like to trade?

I know there are all types of persons in a country -men and women- but

How are Indonesian Men in general?
(I need to know it before trading places laugh )

Although that is not an easy question for you because you are single.

Pasioniberica: Yes, sure! But some nationalities are less "reliable" than others...
I talk from my own experiences!! I don´t want to sound to "obvious" or
be influenced by stereotypes, but definitely, a German, for example, is much more reliable, mature and determined in a relationship, than Italians (I´m sorry if they read that!); because here it is also a question of culture. So, even if there are good and bad everything, sometimes,unfortunately, we have to generalize!
The same as we would say that Spanish people, for example, are lively, joyful, warm and passionate in general; sure there can be some who are not, but most of them are!! So, the same here...


I married a German.... after my divorce I had a long term with another German... both men beat me. Both were extremely cruel. The men that treated me the best were either Italian or what we call a Heinz 57. Just far to many different nationalities in them to claim one.
I think a person can't be judged by their nationality, age, skin color, religion or.... and I know this is biggie on here..... their political views. None of those things are going to determine how they treat a loved one. It is in each of our hearts how we treat one another. JMO

venusenvy: I dont think reliability is a nationality thing. I think it has everything to do with the individual.

The idea of selecting a nationality as a best-of-breed (excuse the pun) for a partner is as false as selecting a breed of dogs for the "best" pet. You have to remember - it was said here already by few - that individuals are just that: individuals. Their culture, upbringing, education, religion, life experience, etc. OR lack of the above, will make them very VERY UNIQUE!
There are no guarantees, which seems to me is what you are looking for. Yes, all nationalities have some generalities, but in over 35 years of living abroad (outside of my native country) I can tell you that you simply cannot determine the character of a person by nationality.
The other HUGE obstacle no one has talked about is that you will face from day one a culture clash and misunderstandings coming from different expectations. In this case, double whammy: you of him, him of you. Hot vs cold temperaments, east vs west culture, north vs south, you get the idea. That said, LOVE is BLIND. I have seen many happy couples of way different backgrounds. But the things they had in common were deep respect, loyalty, personal compatibility and LOVE. Perhaps, that is a good starting point to look for. It is not a road for the weak though, as you can imagine.
Buona fortuna.

It's with trial and erros that we find who we are compadable with.
Has nothing to do with where you were born. If you are verry lucky you will find the love of your life and be together forever. I still believe in real love. There just is not a whole lot left out there so you will have to fight for it. Compadability is something that you can teach and learn if you find the one for you.

chris27292729: In what way in general Germans,are different from American and Balcan men???? Just curious.-!!!!!


Attitude, Chris. Come on.. you see it how the tourists from those three different countries behave, for example. I'm not saying it's bad, but it's different. German guys are much more "matter of fact" and more rational in their approach to things than American men, for example. Men from the Balcan react much more emotional than Germans when you bring a controversial issue to the table (another example). This is not for every single person, but in general, that holds true.

Pasioniberica: Yes, but unfortunately divorces rate doesn´t have anything to do with what we are talking about; there are less divorces in Italy just because here again, it is a question of culture; getting divorce in Italy is a very hard and long process, and people tend to be together even if they don´t love each other anymore; but you can´t imagine how many extra-matrimonial relationship thera are; ( I´ve been told that by Italians themselves). In other countries, people are less hypocritical regarding relationships; if they don´t love each other anymore, they just divorce!!


you are right "pasion" and besides, Italians don't marry because they don't trust themselves and teh others; no marriage, no divorce...
