Love / English girl. Do Polish men afraid to show their feelings or they are just not comfortable in UK? [84]

i am an English girl who has been seeing a Polish man for 6 months .
although we meet regularly in each others home he never shows any interest in going out, when i ask him about this i never get a straight answer. now i am thinking maybe polish people don't feel safe or comfortable socializing in English pubs, clubs etc .

would appreciate some views on this

just the usual meal, drinks and getting to know you better stuff.
it seems that even when he is drinking with his polish mates they stay at home, and although i have asked he has never invited me to join them! all this to me is a lttle strange and upsetting , i don't know a lot about the polish way of life and can't work out if this is normal practice , or if i should have reason to feel concerned.

are there any polish guys who can tell me , do you feel happy to go out in england? do you have racism fears?
I know JustysiaS is right, i just have to ask him for honest answer, maybe i am just paronoid there is a problem with me !! would he be embarrassed to have english girlfriend???!!! which is why i don't meet his friends????!!!!...... am i just being a little insane now?????

OK so i am really into this guy , it is the first time i have had a relationship with someone of a different nationality and i really want to learn as much about polish way of life as regards to relationships as possible, anything i should know ?? i mean i know everybody is different but is there anything in particular Polish men in general go for or expect from there partner?

people or always saying to me the Polish /English thing will never work long term! agree or disagree??
despite the language barrier , ( his English is quite good) we do get on great , i know he likes me but i think he does have concerns about our differences in language and culture and feel sometimes he backs off a bit because of this.

but to never want to go out with you does seem a little odd. I would expect someone, even if it was just once a month on pay-day, to take his girlfriend out somewhere.

See this is the way i looked at it, and no clubbing was never on my to do list , i just want us to get to know each other better and surely going out , whether its a meal , a few drinks or just a walk or something is the way to do this , always staying home , we are never going to learn to much about each other.

doing stuff together does not have to be expensive.

the main issue for me is i get all the right signs that he wants to be with me but all in such a different way to any english relationship i have had, my confusion on the going out thing and not meeting his friends plus the feeling that everytime we get closer he seems to pull back again make me believe it must be a polish thing rather than the usual relationship issues i have expirienced.

I have tried to speak with him but i am not sure if some of what i say is lost in translation or he is just avoiding the issues as i never get a straight answer.

He's either married or got another girlfriend that doesn't know about you either.

I have thought of this before, i don't believe he is married but have wondered about a girlfriend , even asked him once , he just laughed !!!!!

How long does he plan to stay in the UK ? He may not want to get too fond of you if his longterm plans are to go back home.

honestly i think that is it!!! going out together makes us more of a 'proper couple'
I have asked him about all this , he does not give much away but he has said something along those lines before, but for me it makes no sense , if our relationship went the right way and he wanted to go home i would happily go with him.

Thanks to all for your comments and time.

all i can do is put 100% in to this and see what happens!
