How can an Asian man get together with a Caucasian woman? Are Caucasian women into Asian men? If they are, what's the best way to approach one?
As a 24 yo Turkish-Russian mixed girl who had 3 asian boyfriend, i will share my opinions.First : self-confidence.most of the korean and japanese guys are very shy to approach a girl, also they think “this girl would never look at me/i'm not enough for her..etc.” just dont. Approach her and start a normal conversation (not in a creepy way). And dont compliment about her physical features too much.The other nice point is; a good sense of humour. My korean boyfriend was making clever jokes and making people laugh around him all the time without trying hard but he never showed any interests so i took the first step and we had a great time together.Don't act like a friend at first. If you wanna get her, just dont let her think you “just as a friend”. Be honest with your intentions. Once you get friendzoned,it's impossible to get out of it.Don't act extremely cute. Yes. some asian guys do that too much. Maybe it's a cultural thing but it only attracts 12–15 years old girls in my opinion.Don't be obsessed with weight and height. Also dont ask it girls whom you met for a few days. It's common in asia but not very usual for my culture.Be aware of some creepy girls and stay away from them. “Anime/manga/kpop/kdrama..” they all have a big effect on teenagers and they're only looking for your race. So if you want something like ons or fwb it's okay and easy to get one of them. But be careful and go for the +18 girls.Don't play the “hard to get”. It's tiring and annoying. Everyone can be replaced if you're just flirting, so it won't take long to go for another guy and leave the “hard to get” one.Language barrier. Even if you're a total package, it will be useless without using the same language. When i was in japan, i fell for a japanese guy who was kind, caring and had a perfect british accent. He could express himself really well and made me admire him everytime.Last one is caring and romantic side. I think this is something i've barely seen in moscow and istanbul so asian guys hit me hard at that point. They're caring, thoughtful and romantic naturally.All of those are my opinions and experiences. I don't wanna generalize every asian people. Everyone is different so these are my biased thoughts. Thanks for reading.
What life lessons do Romeo and Juliet teach?
If Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy then, in my opinion, Romeo is the tragic hero. All tragic heros have a tragic flaw, and Romeo's is summed up by the advice that Friar Lawrence gives him (and which he ignores):"Wisely and slow; they stumble who run fast."Essentially, Romeo and Juliet teaches us not to make rash decisions based on passion, but to be patient and rational. Think of all the different plot points and characters that hammer that message home (*Spoiler Alert*):Romeo risks his life to see Juliet moments after meeting her at a party ("If they find thee they will kill thee"). Bear in mind that he was lovesick about a different girl, Rosaline, that very morning.Juliet INSISTS that he agree to marry her the next morning, to prove he's serious about her.Tybalt MUST fight Romeo because he's angry that Romeo came to his party uninvited. This results in Tybalt's death.Mercutio MUST provoke Tybalt into a brawl - at first because he thinks it's funny and later because he's annoyed with Romeo's cowardice. This results in Mercutio's death.Romeo MUST avenge his best friend's death at the hands of Tybalt, despite knowing the consequences. This results in his permanent banishment from Verona.Juliet threatens to commit suicide ("I long to die") unless Friar Lawrence has a plan to get her out of marrying Paris.She only does this because her Father has given her an impossible ultimatum: marry Paris or I'll disown you.Romeo MUST kill himself because he believes Juliet is dead, without thinking to consult his only true confidante (Lawrence). This results in his death.So all of the major plot points hinge on acts of passion. The backdrop to all of this is, of course, the equally irrational and passion based "ancient grudge" between the Montagues and Capulets, which creates a world where illogical emotional responses are the culture. Note that we have no idea what fuels this hatred at any point in the play.In the midst of all of this, Friar Lawrence is arguably the voice of reason, always seeking peaceful, logical solutions. I love the following line of his, which poetically states the mistake that all of the characters are making on repeat."These violent delights have violent ends. And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss, consume."
