...and still identifies with that side of him. We bonded immediately and found out we both comfort each other as we are pretty sensitive but crave adventure , extremely independent on many levels but one thing stands out so I ask: Is the typical Polish man extremely forgiving of family members?

His childhood consisted of 5 different guardianships so he had a scattered upbringing. I feel he was passed around while his parents left him to create other families. I am American of South American ancestry and personally I would carry a grudge forever.

On this topic I find it hard to differentiate between who he is as a human being or what is acceptable in his culture.

His Polish friends seem to carry core beliefs:
-Honesty, Repaying favors
-Dislike of Russians, Germans, homosexuals, waiting in line
-Pride of Poland and its native food
-Being well connected among fellow polish people in case something comes up
-Expressing anger and quickly recovering from it after a thunderous "Kurwa!"

You might relate if ever you dated someone in a culture different than your own. He is 32 and we have been together 2 years, any info/comment would be great

Someone asked if he hit...
No never. I know he sounds stubborn but honestly he is probably too good to be true being so forgiving about his family. He would never hurt a soul. He is also a very gentle, rare personality type that is hard to come across. I have dated when traveling and the Polish man is firm but the heart is very gentle if not fragile when it comes to women.

Lol. Tongue in cheek comment, but not far off the mark.
