Raising accessibility and popularity of internet in Asia is without a doubt a source a major breakthrough in dating on this continent. It lets Asians communicate cross-border with friends and lovers in neighbouring countries but also make new friendships worldwide. It also brings in outsiders – Westerners.

If you are a ‘Westerner’ dating an Asian can be one of the most refreshing and eye-opening experiences in your life. It’s not because it’s so much different, but simply because it will bring new values to your life and give you different perspective to dating, love and man/woman relationship. There are several fields where Asian approach to dating differs from our western understanding of this term. Let’s have a closer look at some of them.

In Asian relationship man and woman have traditionally been assigned slightly different roles. Man is the provider, the guardian of the house. Women role is to comfort man, to take care of the house and be the heart and soul of the household. If we look several decades back it wasn’t much different in Europe or even America. Asians seems to be simply more attached to these traditions - at least those living in the environment that cherishes tradition. Without a doubt, this is one of the reasons why western men look for Asian women for long lasting relationships and very often marriage - they seek these traditional family values.

When westerner says date, we usually think going out for a dinner, caching a movie etc. When Asian people think of a date what they have in mind is something more permanent, long-lasting and meaningful from the very beginning. They treat relationship more seriously right from the start. Don’t be surprised if you come across Asian dating service that says ‘for long-lasting relationships only’ or ‘Asian women for marriage’ or simply ‘Asian brides’. It does not necessarily mean that you go and order a bride or wife on that website. What it means is that those women are not looking for a one night stay. Of course, I have to stress that there are many different more of less legit services out there and some of them may be involved in marriage frauds. When you look around for Asian dating service beware of those. More illegal activities include human trafficking, pornography or child abuse. These can get you in serious trouble, far more grim that just loosing your money. This is unfortunately specifically true with Asian dating services (Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese) Do your research first, get other peoples opinion, find trustworthy sites before you sign up. The easiest way to do this is to consult a site that reviews Asian dating sites professionally.

Another aspect of dating that lost a lot of its meaning in western world is family. Showing respect to Asian girl’s parents is one of great importance. If you date online from overseas you won’t probably have an opportunity to meet her parent for quite a while, but when you do remember to be respectful and humble. Chances are, if they don’t get to like you your relationship may fall apart. That is how strong parents influence is. Remember, that traditionally in Asia parents were choosing spouses for their children.

Respect her and her heritage. Culture is very important for Asians. Try to understand, listen, show her that you want to learn about traditions and culture of her homeland. Don’t be an ignorant and never talk down of her culture. Show that you care even if you don’t.

There is one more thing to say at the end, just to be clear. For some of you it may seem obvious for some maybe not. Many men make this mistake. They treat all women that have Asian eyes the same. Understand that - if the girl has been living in a western country for a longer time, maybe all her live her perception of Asian culture is different that the girls that was raised in conservative Asian family in China, Vietnam, Thailand or other. It doesn’t mean that she lost contact with Asian culture. Tradition is often, or should I say usually, carried from generation to generation even if living overseas, it’s just not that strong. Try to get to know the girl a bit better before you burry yourself asking questions about her Asian heritage that she doesn’t know answers to. Be respectful, listen, learn and you’ll be successful in dating Asian women.
