There are 3 types of people who are attracted to and do date people from abroad.
1: People who fancy the idea of something different.
And for them meeting foreign citizen is bit of an excitement. Dating foreigners is not such a big deal but an experience indeed to them.When excitement wears off, that's the real moment to figure if they actually fancied the aliens, or the idea of them/idea of dating them.
They always deny that the fact their boyfriends/girlfriends being foreigner is NOTHING to do with anything, but, surely, there is unusualness in their relationship including massive cultural differences, and v. possibly the language barriers. If they think their relationship is VERY normal like any other, they are so lying. They are communicationally challenged, so be it.
2: People who think they are well educated about foreign affairs and cultures.
Meeting certain nationality people is such an excitement to them and they feel instant feelings of belonging to them, though this is usually the worst type of lots, because they think they know, and believe me, they just THINK they do.Just because you watched a couple of manga films that doesn't justify your credibility to do justice on Japanese culture, and just because you drink Blue Island beer that doesn't make you a Chinese party scene expert.
And when you meet them in YOUR country, the chances are very slim that they are very typical of their nationality; if they are so truly typical and love being so they probably never left their country. And the last thing they want is to be treated like an encyclopaedia of their culture, or collection of your pennants from your cultural trip. This is a positive discrimination.
3: People who can't get laid in their own country.
I know some people went and came back from certain destination with wives, and they always tell us,"Yeah, I fell in love with this girl and we got married."
Or, did you? Are you sure you didn't pick her number out of a catalogue, or internet BRIDAL sites?
And these are the people who actually use the type 1 people. World works in a neat way.
I am a mixture of two. Not telling which ones (hehe.) : p
