    After dating two German men back to back, I must say that:
    - Yes, they can look hot as hell and still be really shy. Do approach them first.
    - It takes a while until they warm up to you, but once you get close to them, they are the best kind of man to be around, responsible, charming, kind and devoted.
    - Not just honest, they mean what they say. And they expect the same from you.
    - Be on time. Don't test them on this.
    10/10 will date German men again hahaha (nah, still dating one)

      Agreed! I live, work and have relationship with German before. But my last one was so possessive and really telling me all the truth how he never likes my friends and won't like them at all.
      Well, we broke up with a good term, but after so many times I think I cant relate another guy who act differently, hides things and late. Or messing up a schedule like is nothing.

    I was in Germany and I was at a bar. Nobody came up to me even though a lot of men where looking at me and even bought me drinks. I went up to one of them and started talking. We didn't talk much afterwards, but one day he came to the restaurant I worked in and invited me for a drink. Out of the blue, as we were sitting in the bar he was like, i really like you. Nothing more. I was so confused but I found it so refreshing. Yeah being romantic is great but being direct is refreshing and romantic in it's own way. Oh by the way, why are germans so hot? Like wtf?
    Ps. He was kind of drunk the first time we met but he started talking to me about the education system and he was actually making sense. Wtf

    My husband is German and he’s the best. I’ve dated Americans, brits, fellow Aussies, and etc. they’re very shy so yes you definitely need to approach them. My husband is the sweetest most caring person I know. No we’re not into small talk but we have very deep conversations which make our bond so much stronger. He loves to cook for me and look after me. He’s very intelligent and I learn so much from him. I’m no picnic. I suffer from panic disorder and bipolar disorder but he is so patient with me it’s unreal. I didn’t want a child before I met him but since we’ve been together, I can’t wait for him to be the father of my child. 💋😘💋😘

    I'm an American woman who was having AWFUL TERRIBLE BAD luck with dating American men. I thought something was wrong with me until I met a German man. First, he was very receptive to me showing interest in him (yes, I had to approach him lol). He even showed gratitude for me giving him attention! He said that he was so flattered that I liked him so much and thanked me, lol. In contrast, American men pull away when women show interest. American men like women who are hard to catch and very aloof. The more interest you show, the more American men think of you as desperate or needy. Second, my German guy was always honest and direct. When it was time to have those tough conversations about our relationship aka "the talk" he was always open to talking and being honest with me, even if it could possibly hurt my feelings he always gave a very rational direct and honest response. In contrast, American men run away for relationship talk and they are not always very direct or honest. You basically have to just go with the flow with American men so you don't scare them away. Thirdly, my German guy was happy to talk about heavy topics like politics and religion on the first date. I love talking about these kinds of things but American men seem to want to have more casual and carefree conversations on dates and they are turned off by these topics. Fourth, my German guy is much more open minded about sex. We had sex on the second date and he still respected me and was still very interested in me. In fact, he wanted to see me more after we had sex and he liked how open I was to trying things. American men are far more judgmental about sex. They are turned off if they have sex too fast and they judge women who are sexually open and sexually confident, American men slut-shame women. My German man was the only man I ever felt completely comfortable with being kinky with because he genuinely enjoyed it and never made me fell dirty or impure. All this time I thought something was wrong with me and I was not good enough, turns out that I just don't fit well in American dating culture. I moved to Germany and I have excellent success with dating now, the best I've ever had in my entire life. I now have a boyfriend but before I met him, I was meeting lots of wonder guys. Dating was finally fun for me!

      As a German I can tell you that we might be more honest and/or direct than other cultures but most people here still lie to be polite just not as much as in some other countries. Also you still need to do a little small talk before you can have deeper conversations and if you are a real geek about something it's still hard to find someone who shares you're passion. If you're looking for an honest guy who likes deep concersations it might be easier to find one in Germany but after all we too are only humans who want to be accapted and not harm others, just in general we are a little more open than other cultures in some cases.

I know countless couples in which the woman earns more then the man and they don't care, money is shared anyhow and the one that makes more continues to work, the other one stays home with the kids... For us it is important that somebody spends much time with the kids when they are still young, but it doesnt matter which one it is, mother or father.

    I am HOWLING. I am an American who has been blissfully dating a German man for 4 years, and this is so dead accurate!!! The only difference is that I am the hyper-organized planner when we go on trips. That's when he tells me that I am more German than he is! But yes they are gorgeous, have no flirtation skills whatsoever, are total bread snobs, and are great listeners. When I first met him, the "honesty"--I call it bluntness--upset me...but now I know the joy and security that comes from knowing that your partner is always telling you the truth (aka, if he tells you you look great, he really means it)!

    • @andrew7301
      @andrew7301 7 лет назад +16

      hooby marburg Sure, it's a little exaggerated, but there's also some truth to it. I never realised this, because my friends and people around me do it too (it varies from person to person) but we Germans do plan ahead more than others. I know that there's this stereotype about the organized, punctual and hard working German, but the point isn't that everyone here is like that. To me the point is that a lot of Germans are more organized, more punctual and more hard working than people from other countries. I only ever realise the truth of these stereotypes when interacting with people from different cultures. Of course there are also stereotypes that are far from true like, that we have no humour and are all Nazis, but I'm just saying that stereotypes don't necessarily mean that you are like that but that you are more likely to be like that compared to people from other parts of the earth. I don't think it's meant as an insult.

    Am happily married to a German for several years (I am also German) and oh boy. the stereotype is so true. Of course, there are gradations. I wish my husband would love planning that much... but I am the one doing it. But yeah, he recently booked a spa-treatment for me as a surprise and I got a list with times, but... it was a scheduled thing, so... I would have loved to get a list and got one.
    We do have a machine to make perfect, fresh bread for us. About 5% of our talking is small talk. We can sit in silence and enjoy our company rather than talking about boring stuff. But not all our talk is about profound things - more about things that matter to us personally and the other person is always invested. But that's long-term relationship-invested, would not talk about such things on a date ; )
    But the brutal honesty. Something about this is very important though: There is rarely any emotional judgement attached. That's what many people do not understand and sometimes its hard to really get that. "You wear a lot of make up" is exactly this. "I notice, that you wear a lot of make up." Maybe there is some curiosity. Do you like make up? Did you do that especially for me? (if so, expect an answer, if that is appreciated, then you WILL get a judgement and it will be meant to be kind: "Don't worry about it. I don't care about make up. You do not have to make such an effort for me"

      He does not care about make up. It is just for me. I still ask him if he likes something and sure he has opinions about what he likes and what not. But makeup simply is not important. He appreciates me putting any kind of effort into something we do together - including dressing up. Same the other way around. I like him to dress up for things like going to the movies. Not because that is expected, but because I like having a bit of effort and preparation for a date. But if he doesn't feel like it - all is fine. I take him any time in some old, hole-filled band shirt and an old grubby jeans as long as we spend time together ; )
      As far as I can tell: Make up and people liking make up is not his world but he doesn't judge.

I know some women whine and pretend they do the majority of domestic labor (which most do not although some do), but overall North Americans have a pretty gender equalitarian culture. Most North Americans share cleaning, bills, child care duties etc. that’s pretty equalitarian. Maybe North American men aren’t feminist (because feminists hate men and so they hate feminists).

    I have been waiting for this since FOREVER, why did it have to end so quickly?! Everything in here was true. The brutal honesty is 100% true but that's with German people period - man or woman. Along with "romantic efficiency" and the bread. Proper bread is super important and I'm thankful to my German ex for bringing me into the perfect breaded world. However, since it was so short, I feel as if this was missing somethings such as "Be prepared to do plenty of outdoor activities. The Germans love nature and so more than likely you'll find yourself doing quite a bit of hiking or bike riding". Or "Do not be offended if they're not very physically affectionate at first. Trust. When they're into you, they WILL show it" (same as you had for German women). OR!! "Get ready to listen to a flurry of German cursing when they're driving... even if you see no traffic... just the mere sight of the car in front of them putting on their brake lights will send them flying off the handle. It's not you, it's them."

    In my experience (as a German woman), eye contact and smiling does the job most of the time. At least if there's instant chemistry on both sides. That's how I fell in love with 3/4 of my boyfriends, all being German men. The most important thing is that you shouldn't force it too much. Most likely, love will hit you when you don't expect it at all. Like you're randomly sitting nearby some guy on a train or something and suddenly you start smiling at each other. That's how I met my current bf and we're together for nearly a year now.

    My aunt married a German-Swiss in 1982 and she moved to live over there, in Basel. Even though we often spoke by phone she never travelled back home to visit us until recently, but that's not the case. The amazing story is that 8 years ago I had some business to take care in Zurich so I called her to check if she's around in order to pay her a visit, and to my surprise she arranged for a "termin" (an appointment in German) ... I said, ok, I'll see you tomorrow, no problem, let's do that "termin" of yours. Next day, I took the train to Basel, bought a huge and very colourful bouquet and a posh box of chocolate for her, a nice and rather expensive Burgundy for her husband and what followed was absolutely jaw dropping: she picked me from the train station, she threatened to file a lawsuit against the local tram company for less than half a minute delay, we arrived at her villa, she arranged a plate with 3 (three!) microscopic salmon sandwiches (one for each) and we drank a coffee. 35-40 minutes I was kicked out with a lame ass excuse. An entire day spent at a local morgue listening to dead corpses farting would've been far more exciting. Fuck me!

We don't have social security in most African countries and people are generally nicer to each other. S.Africa has social security and xenophobic attacks happen there. Now Europe has the very best social security system and the people seem very cold hearted.

    @megalodon4586 3 года назад +38

    As a German (girl) - I have to say: not every German is THAT blunt, but the directness and honesty is well portrayed :D
    It's actually meant to make things clear and mostly means no judgement or harm. It's often as neutrally spoken like a fun fact, because... it kinda is. Beeing deeply offended by this comes across as weird in Germany, since we're not used to sugarcoat things and don't take everything to heart.
    We also do not care much about "taboo"-topics, because we have very few, depending the situation. If he asks you questions you may find uncomfortable, you are free to answer vague, or simply say that it's not common to get asked about this in your country. Say it directly. No need to hide who you really are. Actually, if he goes on to ask questions about you, this is like a flashing sign that he is interested in you. It's not a "politeness thing" in Germany to keep a conversation going.
    I was in Australia once and people there wondered, why Germans always answered to the "How are you?"-greeting. Well, if you don't want an answer, why do you ask me this question? "How are you" is a clear invitation to talk about your day in Germany and leaving it unanswered would be like intentionally ignoring the person before you. It would be quite literally rude not to answer. We mean exactly what we say and though we have proverbs too - we take things very literally. So please don't make promises or invitations you don't mean out of politeness - you will be taken by your word and expected to live up to it.
    Also, a German rarely makes plans for both of you without considering your wishes. You only have to make them clear! I never met another German who wouldn't consider anything as not discussable. But if you make no noise about what you like or not - be prepared that he will take over to make a progress happen, or just leave for good. Most German men prefer a crystal clear input of the woman and feel lost when she plays the "hmmm...maybe, probably, eventually"- card.
    Another thing: don't expect a German to treat you like a delicate flower. He thinks of a woman as equal and fully capable of handling her life herself. Physically and financially.
    Also, the schedule in the video is nonsense. Many Germans are rather chaotic sometimes. (We have a horrible bureaucracy, maybe that's where this cliché comes from.)
    That all may seem quite unromantic in the original sense, but at least you know what you're dealing with from the getgo.

      Definitely! It usually takes about 6-8 hours, so hopefully once we get a budget we can start spreading them out over a couple of days.

    @elenna_alexia 8 лет назад +13

    I've been sceptical about clicking these videos, because as a rule I tend not to like stereotyping people. Now I clicked this because I am German, so I figured I could see how accurate the video is. Now of course I can only speak from my experience - how I personally act and how other Germans I know do.
    I do feel that it's true that honesty and directness is valued more in German culture than many others. The former is especially true for me. I don't like to lie and avoid lies and half-truths where I can. Sometimes that mean not telling a person what they want to hear or what I think would make them feel good, because I would feel that I'm being dishonest otherwise. Now I do think that I'm on the extreme side for that one, even for Germans, and of course there is a lot of variety there from person to person (don't expect every German to be honest, there's bullshitters in Germany too just like everywhere else).
    I did cringe at some of the things he said though. I'd never tell a woman I though she was good for a hookup like that (though I wouldn't really think like that in the first place) and I don't know a lot of guys that would could pull something like that.
    Needing the other person to be a bit more direct, ideally starting a conversation themselves is absolutely true for me (a bit context dependent though, sometimes I also approach people if the situation lends itself to it), but again I do think I'm on the extreme side there. It's not totally uncommon for German guys to approach women and flirt aggressively, but I'd say on average Germans do tend to be a bit more restrained when it comes to that.
    As for not giving women special treatment and preferring an equal partner, again true for me and true for many Germans as I see it. I might hold open a door for a date, but then again I hold doors open for men too.
    The bread one is perfect. German bread culture is real and I'm serious about my bread. I can even bake a decent German bread myself.
    As for the meticulous and efficent planning - that's not me at all and I think it varies wildly from person to person. Some Germans are exactly like that, other, like me, barely plan at all unless absolutely necessary.
    Now I do like to add that punctuality is very much valued in German culture, something I tend to be bad at, which can lead to conflict and, depending on the occasion can be seen as rude. So knowing when to take punctuality seriously is important when dealing with Germans.
    I'd like to point out that the cheek kissing when greeting someone, as they did in the video is somewhat uncommon in Germany. Some people do it, most don't. Since people are generally familiar with it though, it's fine to initatiate it if that's your way of greeting a date. Just consider that it might be surprising for some folks and might not be as smooth as you expect.
    At least from my personal experience hugging is a common way to greet friends, dates, sometimes even people who just met will give a short hug (usually restricted to opposite sex and initiated by the woman), but that's rather rare. This is true for many young people, while in my experience older people tend to be a bit more reserved when it comes to hugging.
    Overall, I'm positively surprised, I think for the most part this is fairly accurate, if a bit exaggerated. Maybe it just so happened that most of these fit me and my experiences and someone else would disagree with some of the things I wrote. If so, please leave a reply.
    Well, this ended up being a lot longer than I originally anticipated. If anyone makes it through all of this: Thanks for reading and I hope getting another perspective on this was interesting to you.

    Omg, I'm supposed to be Mexican but...
    1. Definitely like when women are more forward✔️
    2. Hate small talk✔️
    3. A bit brutally honest✔️
    4. Treat women as equals✔️
    5. Like to be organized and try to fit activities so they flow naturally ✔️
    I might just be a closet German. 😱 Still not blond nor blue-eyed, just your regular well looking mexican guy ;)

    I am actually getting married to a German man this summer and this is indeed very accurate. But for sake of clarity I must say when a German guy is really into you - they will go over they head to get the woman they want. Topics they left out though: the obsession with everything that has to do with cars and how to drink a Weizebier in the "correct way". :D Prost!

    I feel like this was probably one of the most relatable videos you ever did, especially the bread and the smalltalk thing hahah the itinerary was exaggerated but it was still pretty accurate overall :)

    Glad to see this video. I'm a Filipina and have a German friend online which I matched in a dating app. We've been communicating for 6 months now. We always into deep conversation, hearing each other's opinions and sharing the same humor. I thought it was just a coincidence that we share the same attitudes (and interests) but after seeing this video, I can say it's really their nature. I like the way he thinks and perceive things. At first, he seems distant and cold but now I slowly see his soft side. He even showed me the picture of his family and I did the same to let him know that I considered him as a friend that I trust. He likes me as his friend but I like him more than that. However, I don't have plans to tell him for now. I wanted to know him more when we personally meet these coming few months.

      @helenatube 5 лет назад +12

      I have heard German guys say similar things to women they don't really know. It was shocking at the time but over time I've realized for some German men that's normal. They don't mean to be rude, but not all cultures are that blunt.

    • @casmeraki

      I wouldnt take it as rude if anyone said it to me. I like honesty. I would have respect for you instantly if someone said something "harsh" to me. I think insecure people are the ones that can't handle honesty

    • @9SMTM6
      @9SMTM6 4 года назад +4

      This video displays exaggerated tendencies.
      We do have a tendency for what would be considered brutal honesty in other cultures, at least thats what I would say.
