One Secret to Dating Success: NOT Dating American Girls

As I’ve mentioned before, I truly prefer dating non-American women.  As of this writing, I’ve dated two Eastern Europeans, two Russians, two Germans, a Swede, an Israeli, and a Canadian.  While none of those girls were absolutely perfect mentally, they were certainly more feminine, more conscientious about their bodies, and more straightforward than the Americans I’ve dated.  I’ve basically been dating non-Americans exclusively the last few years.

Well, I’ve recently started making contact with a normal American girl who happens to be mega-hot.  By “contact” I mean through the Internet.  I still haven’t met her in person (she lives a few hours away).  We were just “friends” for a while, but MySpace messages turned into e-mail messages which turned into chats and now phone calls and text messages.  Flirtation has been a big part of this.  This all sounds great, but…

…I’m now being reminded why I basically date non-Americans.  She plays games.  She admits to playing games.  She talks about other guys, which is something I generally don’t care about, but she seems to do it at inappropriate times.  She reverts from being charming to being bitchy in a split second.  She has no idea what she wants in a guy.  She seems to mull relationships from some kind of logical formula, instead of letting her heart be her guide.

Ugh.

I guess I can’t bitch too loudly about that last point, because the “logical formula” thing is what I do. I am always thinking about what degree of attraction and what degree of sense of humor and what degree of intelligence and I need to be happy.  So I guess I am being somewhat hypocritical.  And maybe that is why so many of us are still single.  We’re thinking too much.

Regardless, I think I’m going back to the international dating thing pronto.
