Has Anyone Had Any Experience Dating A Romanian Guy?

[celinemc]

ive been dating my boyfriend for a year and sometimes find him to be quite pushy and harsh on subjects i bring up.I.e. Im learning how to do makeup atm and he will give me a lecture on practicing the skill but he does it in quite a pushy manner. I know hes doing it for my best interest but it can seem quite abrupt at times.
So girls, just wanted to know if youd ever dated a romanian and what was your experience?

[Mamyalynne]

No I haven't - if he's making you feel uncomfortable he's not the right man for you.


Not keen on that phrase 'He's doing it for my best interest' , he's not your parent or teacher.


Take care.

I don't think that behaviour is confined to Romanian males......what Mamya said....be very careful!

[ummmm]

No but I have some Romanian friends. They are blunt and to the point, no faffing around wasting words. Lovely people nonetheless...

[Mamyalynne]

I must add my advice would have been the same whatever his nationality.

[ummmm]

Not saying all Romanian people are lovely just my first impression of my friends was that they were rude....but once I got to know them I started to find their bluntness quite funny and soon realised they were really nice people.

I think it's the language translation.

Definitely does not sound like a keeper
If he is abrupt and pushy now he is not likely to change
Can you live with that?

[jomifl]

Are you sure he's Romanian? sounds to me as if he is from Yorkshire.

[naomi24]

Eastern Europeans have a different culture.

[DaisyNonna]

That makes rude, controlling behaviour acceptable?

[Davemano]

Are you only young celinemc?

[naomi24]

Daisy, no, it doesn't. Just saying that western ladies need to be aware of that.

[DaisyNonna]

One or two dates should make that obvious

[ummmm]

What are you saying, Naomi?

[naomi24]

Love is blind - until you put your glasses on.

[naomi24]

^That was to Daisy.

Ummmm, in my experience in Eastern Europe men are men and women are in their place. A very old fashioned society in general.

That^ question is dated Tue 08th Sep 2015. The OP has been with this boyfriend for a year. My advice, get rid and move on.

[ummmm]

Fair enough. I couldn't form an opinion on that as we only see our friends in public and we all know that no-one knows what goes on behind closed doors.

Although our mate (Irish) is married to a Romanian lady and she's def the boss. She's a good woman though.

[ummmm]

Oh.... the gambler :-(
