Whether you’re from Germany or a foreigner living there, you may have noticed that dating culture is a bit… different. In this video, I'm going to share some culture shock experiences about dating in Germany. From the telltale signs that you’ve been “ghosted” to the mind-boggling use of gender-neutral language, this video will open your eyes to the weird and wonderful world of dating as a foreigner in Germany.

You should do a video with the concept in reverse: asking Germans what they think about dating foreigners and if they had noticed any cultural differences between how they date and how their foreign partners date during the course of their relationship.

​@@ronneyismael605 Germans dont want to date people who are less serious about life or of different ethnicities. we want people who look like us, and are as serious, as private and have a similar understanding of mannerisms and respect and directness. I am a young middle class college educated german guy, and language aside, I would only seriously date women who are either from a german speaking country, or something like dutch or scandinavian, assuming they are similarly serious, well behaved and private and of the same social class. I would be open to date women from eastern europe or anglosphere countries in theory if they are middle class, same ethnicity and have a serious attitude about life. I dont want open, free spirited, non serious, unhinged women who think of sex or relationship or friendships as no big deal.

@@ronneyismael605 marriage has lost its meaning because of feminist propaganda, laws and wellfare. Why would men get married when they get nothing out of it but bear all the risk. modern marriage is like life enurance for women, and women have zero legal invstment. women can leave at any point for no reason, so there is no point as a man. on top of that, child support is guaranteed because even if the father has no money, the state pays, and school, kindergarden and daycare is cheap or state sponsored. A the same time, child support is a fixed rate and marriage can be done without financial commitment, so there is also no real benefit for women because there is barely a way to exploit men via marriage and at the same time the state pays anyway so women mostly dont bother because the social safety net is always there, and there is no money to easily take. there is just no benefit anymore and people just act like they are married without being married if they want a family. Why would I want to marry a woman if I get nothing out of it and she can just as easily leave as if there was no marriage at all? Its not a marriage if you can leave whenever you want. its not a legal commitment at this point, its just a symbolic act that comes with unnecessary burocracy, one sides risk for men, and no upside.

As a German woman, the dating culture in Germany is like that. You do something fun together (concert, hikes, zoo, meal at a restaurant) If the guy liked you they will ask you out again. At some point, 2nd, 3rd, sometimes the 4th "date" they've "checked you out" enough to tell you whether they would like something more or not. And if not, you remain good friends who hang out together sometimes. I think we just open up the playing field to go either and any way without throwing the other person away again. For that foreigners need to understand that there is extremely high value placed on loyalty in friendships and of course relationships (that's out of the question). If you understand loyalty (that's why germans will usually stay your friend lifelong) and accept that and welcome it, you have something really cool. Germans are more conservative and are looking long term. I don't think we have as much of a hook-up culture as other places. Unless that's something you've discussed before and then in Germany it's often like "friendship +" P.S. And if you are after a hook-up, in Germany we have establishments for that 😅 Check out your local swinger club. Im not even kidding you. They are kinky fuckers 😂

It's not shy/ reserved It's just that german culture does not revolve around getting laid like american culture. Also germans have healthy friendship with people of the gender(/s) they are attracted to. Not every interaction is sexualized and looked at through that lense of "potential romance/ sexual encounter". One of the things I love THE MOST about german society.

So true! As a German, it's not uncommon to have friendships between guys and women. Sometimes they evolve into something, sometimes they don't. Usually when a German guy is interested in you, that's why they talk much more. They lay down they shyness and talk out of nervousness. It's not like they deliberately only talk about themselves like somebody mentioned here.

But what about romantic feelings? They are not same as sexualizing. You can have platonic feelings. I feel like this stuff is completely out of the picture here. As it was only about friendship and/or sex. What about love? Do you just start secretly developing feelings towards your friends hoping they will reciprocate? Do you ever let them know? Or do you "wait" with feelings until you are together.. or married.. or have children.. mortage.. old.. when do you finally commit to someone?

Its like Sweden, many similarities. People are sort of open for dating and having fun (if they really like you) but serious commitments is much more complex. Then the culture becomes important and many are still more traditional/conservative even if it’s not noticeable on the surface. It’s just about really wanting it to work and dating/marrying a foreigner can become much more complicated. I have a German male friend who I’ve known for 8 years and we talk a lot about this, very similar.

As a Scandinavian who’s lived in Germany(and speak the language), it’s interesting how Americans, and to some degree Brits (even though we’re closely related people), often are struggling to get their head around German/Scandinavian intersexual behaviour.They often make fun of us. We are introverts(even though every country is reckoned to have about 70% extroverts and 30 % introverts), women here are beautiful, but often cold and difficult, the men are shy and passive, they have no game and so on. But we just don’t have an organized dating culture full of rules like the US. More relaxed, based on relatively high equality between the sexes, not so much on narrowly defined gender roles. We play it intuitively by ear, sensing what’s actually going on and improvising accordingly. Americans, and to some extent Brits, seem to depend more on knowing the rules in beforehand, and consequently the roles and responsibilites of each gender become more clear and evident. Different approaches, different strengths and weaknesses.

You put it really well! I had noticed that women (I'm taking the male perspective) in US / GB somehow came across differently. I couldn't really tell what it was compared to German women, but yeah, it's actually among other things these guidelines they follow when dating. This makes the interaction between the sexes seem somewhat cold-hearted and calculating, at least in the introductory phase. And then it's supposed to be the Germans who are so rule-abiding and unrelaxed. Not in this case.

Yeah, here is little outright flirting and "anbaggern" is looked down upon. Usually you go from affiliate to doing some activities together, if a friendship develops then potentially something more can develope or if not you gained a new good friend. It's more casual and can't be forced like in other cultures by "mating rituals". Guessing by how hard it is for foreigners to find German friends the relationship game is probably even a lot harder for them

I lived for 5 years in München and your video made me think about this topic. In the beginning, in school, I had two German boyfriends, but after that, in fact all the guys I met were foreigners or people with migration background. I never thought about this, because for me it doesn’t make a difference. If you like someone, it doesn’t matter where they come from. And yes, the foreign guys are more outgoing, they approached me first, no matter where… dancing in the club, or on the streets or in English Garden. Of course you have to be open for meeting people and I think germans don’t expect to meet the love of their life on the street. But you never know 😅

There is an obvious difference in lifestyle because with Germans, the girls ALSO approach the men. If you culture dictates that only men should approach, there is an obvious cultural conflict and it's fine to not fit in with other culture's life style. I wanted to give the traditional Indian wedding a shot and realized that women in India (the ones I met) were too immature for me. What they were looking for was a babysitter for them and not really a partner to be on equal footing. I personally didn't like that at all and I prefer my partner be able to do her own thing, have her own hobbies and not be my child. But some men like their women to be like that.

Coming from Austria I feel its very similar here. I also have been to Korea and I felt culturally many similarities between them, except that in Korea people tend to have more rules for dating but also ghost a bit more. German guys wont approach, they will if interested, comment on your insta or start texting you private messages. Usually you meet people through your already existing friends group, which means if you dont have a big or potent group its hard to meet someone new, as meeting someone when going out is usually an equivalent for sex and nothing more. Also online dating is an option, at least for girls, but also often just for sex. I actually believe if you are a foreigner from like latin countries, africa, england or maybe japan you have good cards, as some people are really into some cultural differences. I'm not sure about long term dating though. Overall a lot of people still like someone who is at least very good at speaking german, as many believe you can share more and understand each other better. Also depending on which generation one is dating in: for youngsters its all about polyamoury so quite hard to find something permanent or longterm, for millenial its kinda a mix, also half are more open minded for foreigners and half want someone from here as they believe that cultural differences could stand in the way, in particular for girls as they are more independent and with a culture similar to arabe cultures many view this as being incompatable. As for me, I met my boyfriend online, and he is indian..My friend is married to an indian, and another one is dating an indian as well..I know there are quite a few indians in germany and austria, and from my experience these guys are super lovely and essentially that what a girl wants in the long run, as they usually are loyal and themselves thinking longterm.

Yes, one of my German colleagues here in the UK has an Indian husband. Asian men are usually reliable, long term focused, family-oriented etc. They are more homely and usually come from culturally rich backgrounds. Muzlims and Ar@bs are generally more demanding as they expect you to convert to their religion and adhere to the norms of their drastically different cultures. Hindus, Buddhists etc will be more likely to meet you in the middle and be accommodating of your culture.

Dating yes, serious relationship probably no (unless they grew up here and share a similar culture e.g. I couldn't see myself pursuing a serious relationship with a Muslim woman, though of course never say never). Dating foreigners is quite weird for us as on the one hand foreigners often go waaaaay too fast for us (first date with a Canadian she said she loved me, of course not meant in the same severity as the German understanding of that term, but still that kinda really through me off) and on the other we, like e.g. also the Scandinavians guessing from other comments here, don't really have a defined "mating ritual", so there is a lot of potential for conflict and misunderstandings during the phase where I am still contemplating wether I want to be friends with the other person and see where things go from there while she is already judging me from a potential spouse perspective and expecting certain signs and behaviours normal to her but completely alien to me. Overall international dating is a lot of fun and has a lot of excitement early on but turning it into a serious relationship is a lot harder, at least to me not least of all because of cultural communication issues even when speaking the same language

a lot of foreigners today just dont get out of their foreigner bubble with other foreigners or cosmopolitan people, speaking english and barely get in touch with the majority of the society. of course the options for meeting suitable partners is limited through that. some nationalities like the Indians even prefere to stay among themselves, seldom mixing with other groups. the best chances for foreigners are if they are isolated from other foreigners and are forced to deal with the population and adapt. i ve met foreigners who have been here for 10 years and still barely speak the language, only having international friends, maybe one or two locals. And that ignrorant attitude in dating (and few other things), complaining because (suprise!) the local dating culture is different as in ones home country.

As a german guy I have to state that approaching good-looking women in inappropriate situations is seen as very shallow, typically mysoginist and maybe even arrogant (So you think she would be interested in you in any way? Why?). Most women just want to enjoy their day and usually have stuff to do without someone trying to chat them up or whatever. Also, if all you can go by is their looks you are again shallow. A problem IS that there aren't too many appropriate situations to try and make "first contact". It would have to be somewhere where you get some more idea about her (besides her looks). The park might be a good place. You could open with - "You guys look like a lot of fun, can I join for a bit / do you want to join us for a bit" and so on. The club is good, because girls expect to be danced or flirted with and should be ok with it - if you aren't creepy / disrespectful. But yes, in general our culture expects some more thought or depth than "you look hot" as a reason to want to get to know someone. Additionally it is also somewhat common to just want to get laid, but there are specific places (and apps) for that. And there women only want the hottest guys, and there is a huge imbalance between the genders.

That's the seemingly paradoxical German mindset: we usually only approach strangers when in a really tough situation (like being totally lost w/o a phone or helpful literature), to complain (in mostly incomplete sentences) or if the situation requires it (like "Who'll be leaving / taking their bike first?" while taking seats on the train). It's commonly seen as low-class and demeaning behavior to just cat-call or approach passers-by, unless the "Todesblick" = "death stare" meets with no side backing off quickly (only half joking actually). Gestures/shrugs/groans may overrule words. Most dates initiate with a question towards a close-by person in the realms of "Who are you and why here?", only if a decently positive acknowledgement follows, casual conversation may commence. Dating apps should be considered best for homosexual encounters (similar chances per gender) or quick hookups (w/ women in clear advantage). As many Germans aren't in it for the both (we have legal brothels mind you), they instead; usually with genuine passion; search their soulmate or passively (such as Tinder matches) wait for a decent alternative. It's also quite uncommon for adults in their later 20's and beyond to repeatedly cheat, rather propose an "open relationship" from the get-go. I'd compare ourselves with Japan in this regard, even though they often stigmatize foreigners even more (but are regularly too shy to admit; hence getting into & out of serious trouble both have a rather high bar). As German, I personally prefer honesty, even though it can be brutal at times - makes the average human relationship much more genuine&sincere.

We usually split the bill, so us women don't feel pressure do repay you in any way and we can order whatever we want without feeling guilty.

To be honest many guys in Germany gave up to approach the girls, because they never smile or flirting, or give you any sign they would be interested in you. It’s very sad actually. Comparing to Spain or France for example it’s another world.

Dating works different in Germany, but I guess that everyone knows that it's not impossible. At least in the West (of Germany), were I life and I guess that's not uncommon, at least the guys prevent from being rejected. What happens is that they actually do not always ask their "flirt target", but friends of that "target" and that's usually easier, if that's happening via a shared friend cycle or network. In the club, with the music, flirting is generally impossible or at least pretty hard. Also German women get very restrictive and protective, if strangers are approaching their friends. An example: A good friend and I once had a very nice conversation with a Spanish girl in a club. She knew, we were both taken and just wanted to try out our school Spanish and have some nice small talk. We bought her a drink since she was nice and her (German female) friends directly believed that we wanted to make her drunk for something. We did not even flirt with her. That's why we rarely ever do that (generally). Of course we directly proved that the drink was clean from drugs and drunk it directly in front of the women and that was the end of the story. Point is, if one of us would have been single, this would have been the end of the story as well. Btw., with the aforementioned method (I call it the "Stillepost" method - So asking the friends of the crush), I met half of my ex and also my current girlfriend.

Cuz the guys expect them to make the move sometimes too. But Especially when the girl is coming from another country where the guy is the one that HAS to always make the move.

You have to pay attention to body language, otherwise they might not be interested and you'll get a rejection.

Honestly, I think it's just a cultural thing that some people like and some people dislike. It is true that in Germany, especially in Munich, many girls enjoy that they're not being approached by guys. A friend of mine cited this as the No1 reason why she moved to Munich. For the (german) guys, I think they have difficulties to interpret if the girl is interested as well (that staring thing when you don't know if someone is into you or judging you) and won't approach you if they're not sure. Clear signals from both sexes like eye contact + smiling can help I guess. Just one thing, some expats think that's it's just them for being international, speaking English and knowing only a few words in German etc. At least from my perspective that "shyness thing" exists between german boys and girls as well and has nothing to do with you. It can be weird when you're coming from a country where you used to get hit on all the time and now in Germany no one approaches you and potentially make you feel bad but as I said... this is more general thing here... It's simply a cultural difference and there's no need to feel bad =)

Not really about dating, but I have the impression that Indian guest students deliberately shut themselves off. They often don't speak a word of German, even after 3+ years in the country, only meet each other (as you can see here in the video) and also have no interest in communication. At a birthday party I left early because only Indian (instead of German or English) was spoken, although there were a few other internationals there. I found that quite rude.

You are correct. Because majority of Indians like to date within their ethnic cultural background. For them 1st preference is their partner of same caste from same state. If not then same caste from neighbouring state. Then different caste plus same state or neighbouring state. If above conditions are not met then s/he will for other Indians from farther Indian states. Dating or marrying a foreigner is the least desirable option for them. Also majority of Indians that you must have hanged around must be of different Indian language background. They use a common language Hindi for communication. So technically they all are already conversing in a non native tounge with each other.

One thing I heard about dating in Germany, among actual Germans that is, is that it's expected that the girl be the one to approach the man since it's accepted that women are the most finicky/choosy. To me this makes complete sense. Why should I approach the girl when statistics say there's only a 2% chance that she'd even be open to talking to me? Yet if any random girl approaches any guy, her chances are considerably higher. I also appreciate that there is less of a one-night-stand culture there. I know sexual conquests are very much glorified across the western world, but to me it seems like a waste of time. I find the idea of meeting someone with the aim of building a relationship without any predetermined obsolescence to be much more appealing. I've only gone out with three girls in my life, and the third I married 18 years ago.

Most of the time I am just not interested in getting to know other people, no matter if it is for friendship or dating. I like casual flirts a lot, just looking, a little smile, and that's it - a flirt, in my definition, doesn't have to go beyond that. I am very determined when it comes to dating. If I am not open you can approach me as much as you want, you won't be successful, even if you are super attractive. And another thing: Usually I don't waste my time on casual relationships at all (like mentioned in the video), no matter if they are romantic or platonic. I like deeper conversations (small talk uugh) and meaningful relationships, therefore I try to find out if a person is worth it or not, and that can happen quite fast without the other person noticing.

I would like to have more actions from a men's side rather than asking a man to go on a first date. Maybe it's just cultural differences. Probably it happens because of feminism and Germans are kind of afraid to get rejected. The same I've heard about why Germans don't offer to help you, when you're carrying a big suitcase.

As a German, I can say it is indeed hard to date but not only because of, you are from another Country, this could be actually Helpful, so you have more to talk about like sharing your culture. But I think most of the German Man are Insecure about the Woman. The average German I know is looking for something long lasting, stable. The traditional thing like Wife, Kids, House, good Job. So most of the guys look for a reliable, monogamous Woman. But to be Honest, a life like that can be boring for an Independent Feminist Woman. Most women you can date today, want a good career, hobbies and friends too what is brilliant when it comes to fulfill yourself, but a Family is kind of a full time job. And when you have to work all day, there is not much time left to fulfill yourself. Not for the Women, neither the Man and practically non as a couple. And if Both go to work making every day the same things, you will end up to have nothing new to talk about.! So what makes dating in general complicated is if you look good and ask a girl out for a coffee, that might work. If you're the average guy, with an average boring job and an average low income, most of the girls won't even recognize you. It's a success if she doesn't look at you like you're disgusting. So here is the question, isn't it better to fulfill yourself make some sport eat healthy and have good Friends and hobbies and enjoy your life and learn to live alone instead of trying to find someone you might end up have nothing to say to. Long story short, dating is hard no matter where you're from.! My advice, if you like a German guy, Ask him out for a coffee, get to know each other better and maybe it works. ! peace✌

Perspective of a German woman here, I can guarantee you that we are neither shy nor uptight. We just want our peace and personal space. Being chatted up on the street is usually just annoying and uncomfortable. In settings like parties or online dating it's different of course, but I also want to choose the people I want to get to know better there. And yes, we are proud of our techno culture, so if you don't like techno it looks difficult for you. Of course, I can't speak for all Germans, but at least I've had these experiences in my community. We were raised that way and it's our mentality. ;) And I’ve had relationships with foreigners who appreciated that.

The experience is different for guys and girls, of course. You also see it with the dating apps such as tinder or bumble. As a guy, you seldom get a like. And even after you get a like doesn't mean at all that you will get an answer to your message. I've once read that those apps are more unfair than the unfairest economies. Just around 10% of the best-looking guys get over 80% of the likes. So get rid of these apps and play the game in real life!

That's the reality for most guys but women fail to empathize with it. If you are an average dude with an average income you'll probably have the saddest life on earth.

@@m.h.4907 That's why you shouldn't use Tinder. Per definition also women look average on average. They won't get the top 10% of males. They might give them likes on the dating app but they won't succeed meeting them in real life. So you need to play the game in real life.

@@m.h.4907 nope. women are looking safety and stability. Men are looking for beauty. I might put on some make up and attract 10 guys in DM (which by the way never happened in Germany) but maybe none of those guys would offer me what I need most. I have never heard a guy saying about a girl he liked that "she was so smart she caught my attention". The guys have to see in order to like. What women generally need you can't see immediately. That is why men have to prove themselves, because a woman doesn't feel like nesting with a guy who is incapable of taking care of himself. And about what you said about the average guys with average income: are those guys looking for average girls or beautiful girls? Beauty needs maintenance, hence money. If you analyze the human behaviour you will find out that is quite complex.

the reason is that germans arent shallow and dont seek shallow, non serious relationships or "friendships". all these people seem very casual and see relationships as something casual and meaningless, and thats immediately very repulsive to germans. germans look for someone to be serious with for life, not shallow short term gratification. Germans also value self respect to much to ask out or play a character just for meaningless sex or validation. lower class germans do, but middles class people dont. the type of casual non serious attitude of all of these people immediately makes them not relationship material, so midddle class germans wont bother at all no matter how good someone looks or what someone says or has.

@@Ascarthor No, generalizations are perfectly valid, its about the majority and trends. stop with this postmodern woke insanity, groups of people are defined by the majority. you being different is irrelevant, because the general is still true for the majority. in a deleted comment, you claimed to be a german guy. if thats true, you are either lower class or you live in a major city, because middle class people outside of major cities do not have hook ups like that. its a matter of social class, mannerism associated with genetics and culture, and not being swallowed up by the destructive postmodern leftist madness of big cities. also, I have no idea how a german native can read superiority claims into any of this, and I have even less of an idea why this would even bother you if I did. you either are a lower class leftist city dweller with no concept of seriousness or purpose, or you are an ethnic guy born in Germany, and not really german.
