    In Germany, relationships typically start with casual dating, where individuals get to know each other through various activities such as going out for dinner, attending events, or simply spending time together. Germans tend to take their time getting to know someone before committing to a relationship, and they value honesty and open communication in their interactions.
    When it comes to falling in love, Germans are known for being practical and realistic. They approach relationships with a sense of maturity and tend to prioritize stability and security in their partnerships. While romantic gestures are appreciated, Germans also place importance on trust, respect, and compatibility in their relationships.
    Valentine's Day is celebrated in Germany like in many other countries, with couples exchanging gifts, flowers, and cards to show their love and appreciation for each other. However, some Germans may view Valentine's Day as a commercialized holiday and prefer to show their love and affection in more personal and meaningful ways throughout the year.
    Overall, the average German relationship is characterized by mutual respect, open communication, and a strong sense of commitment. While romantic gestures are appreciated, Germans value practicality and stability in their partnerships, making for lasting and fulfilling relationships.

    I love these videos about German dating, because they’re totally different from the Germans I’ve ever gone out with.
    1 German doctor came up to me at the subway and told me “you’re cute, want to go out with me?”. That’s direct AF!
    Second German I dated and married asked me at the end of the FIRST date, if he can introduce me as his girlfriend. He paid for every date and basically went broke taking me out until I told him he doesn’t have to, lol. I’ve been meeting the German outliers.

    In Finland, love and dating is forbidden. It only happens if you already have a membership or formal relationship. That's why no one goes out on Saturday night to find a partner. Girls sit with girls. Nobody talks to singles.

      @@whitneyc.3257 At the expense of a large number of hermits. Membership or job. You go talk and ask out. You can only talk formally. They give you excuse "we have a girls night" to make you leave. People are ashamed for being alone and leave each other alone. But also so that attractive looks depend on acting included, socially apt, happy and normal. Girls feel attracted and think about sex suddenly to included men. Without it men can't learn to be attractive. The more attractive, the more exclusive so that honesty and authenticity are banned
