Whats the game plan for dates in foreign countries? I'm not sure how to handle the fact that English is a 2nd language for a lot of these women so my traditional American humor game is tough. How do you gets around that fact?
Foreign Date Game
Many younger women speak English quite well in Scandinavia, Switzerland, Germany, BeNeLux. Less so in the Latin countries.
More important than being understood is the cultural difference; what is humorous in the Us may end up being insulting depending on what you say, how you say it, to whom.

Talk slow and instead of making jokes and teasing them compliment them. Works fine in Asia for me so far.
^^have you found yourself dropping lots of words too. Whenever I meet one that went to International school I always forget and still do it.
I've been in Asia for almost 2 months and I've been typing things to a friend in the states and caught myself and had to correct it. I'm turning into the typical person with broken english that I meet in the states. I cant imagine what years will do.
