Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish.

Don't go overboard and get hurt. I'm happy for you, but things can fall apart rather quickly even when they seem to be going well.

I hope everything works out for you.

be prepared for a life of darning his socks and fixing dinner - and beware if the soup is too salty you will likely get a spanking!!

Lots of salt in the soup it is then ;0) or just a couple of dodgy Knorr cubes, same difference!

Honey, pack of 20 pairs for 10$ at Costco and you want me WHAT???

you do not understand tendency of Polish to:
1. save every penny, pence and grosz. plus it is a crime to dispose of something that could be mended by granny, mommy, sister, wife, or girlfirend

2. emotional attachment of Polish male to old socks

They don't have Costco in DPRK. In fact I'm pretty sure they don't have socks either. Lots of bicycles though.

obviously we have shop, very good state-run shop not capitalist swamp like Cosco or Wal-Mart. And yes we have much sock, everyone wear sock except in summer when we is hot and moist. Pyongynag have bus, tram, metro system (two lines, Poland capital only one!) and even bicycle. we also have more monuments.

Yeah, we are thrifty but to a point. And my (polish) husband will throw out a sock at any sign of wear off or a hole.

then he is questionable practicality as he does not understand value of natural ventilation of socks with holes but those with correct socialistic mindset will adapt to any conditions!

This is a city of the 22th century.

Working hard on spreading ideas of North Korean glory and self sufficiency I see :)

Yes, I'm Swedish but live in Poland. I know that the women usually does cooking etc. in Poland. In Sweden men and women do about equal amounts (50%/50%) of cooking/cleaning/washing. Probably the women does a little bit more of this than the man (in most families).

I think most Scandinavian girls think like this: If both the woman and man work full time at their jobs, why should the woman do all the routine work at home?

this is correct thinking of the commune where all participate equal and recieve according to need - we paracticce prinicple which is simplicity: no work, no bowl of rice

or doesn't love her at all

or can't cook

In Sweden it's not associated with communism. It's just that people want to help each other to make every day life as good as possible.

Yea i've noticed Scandinavians are very warm, open, friendly people, men and women. But i've noticed you let way too many Middle Eastern and Asians in your countries, and i can tell by the faces people on the street make looking at them, that they don't like them. And for good reasons, i go to Europe i wanna see native Europeans, just like in the good old days.

xD I love PF.

Randal it might have nothing to do with the nationality, it may be the case that you have fallen in love with someome who is different to whom you usually date. She has unearthed something that has laid dormant in you for a while , and brought back that side which you had forgotten about.

A bit like finding something in the attic from years ago which used to make you smile, but then you got all mature and outhgrew it, then suddently it appears in your life again years later and releases the inner spirit, that has been dead for years.

Some people make you feel like that, but I have to admit they have to be special.
