no, i think men would find it appealing.

you specified you didn't find "the right man," i assume you found some other kind instead?

Wtf?? That's so far from the truth it's not funny.



I actually was dating a Venezuelan girl and just decided to end things last night. She ended up being a negative jerk who did nothing but complain about USA and Americans, yet do nothing but socialize with other venezuelans. I've never seen someone complain about so many stereotypes and yet live in our country.


I love dating international girls, I've dated quite a few from all different parts of the world. I don't necessarily search them out and only go for them, but I do always have a great time.

I don't think it has to do with you being German at all. Many americans I know are very into accents or whatever, LOL. Honestly if you're trying to attract men here and don't look that good in the first place, then that's the problem right there. If you look really decent, attractive, then maybe it is your location in the country and try more places up north. My mother is from south as is most of my family and many, many people down that way are not open minded to dating "different" people.

not the OP: but I've always felt that people who live here and complain about "america this and america that" should find another country to live in (there's plenty to choose from) if this one is soooo far beneath them.

It may be you're too well-educated.

As an american born citizen, I'm right there on board with her. This happens to many people (i.e, Indians, Koreans, Puerto Ricans, Caribbeans) who come to America from other countries; they seek to integrate into American culture, but then they're met with racism, unprovoked hostility, indifference, and rudeness so they learn to only stick to their own kind within America because their own people are the only ones who will accept them, understand them and treat them nice.

As far as the original poster, I failed to mention that you might want to find a town that has many Germans living within it. I know around where I live there is a little Ukraine and you have to read/speak Ukrainian if you really want to get "inside" their community.

I believe most foreigners just have a hard time adopting to the American culture and do not necessarily dislike America as a country.

I said I wasn't talking about the OP but people in general that are from here.

Yes, I know foreigners have a hard time adjusting, anyone would in a foreign country.
