I'm not talking about the ones that are on here.. but I REALLY like "practical" aspects of Brazilian women compared to American women. All I can remember about American women is them being so picky about every little thing, as evidenced by my younger relatives' comments (so I know things haven't changed there). You're either too tall, too short, too fat, too skinny.. nothing is ever perfect.

Whereas in Brazil, if the guy has a decent job and/or bank account, he could probably get something a lot nicer looking than the typical americana. We could possibly say that it is "age-related", but I have examples that blow that hypothesis out of the water.

I think you missed the point here, they've already been going out and "making out" for a few months. Now she wants to be in a committed relationship with him.

Exactly! Thank you!

I think the Brazilians are more flexible in choosing a mate.

My friend lived in the U.S. for eight years and said that the U.S. does not "get" * before dating, kissed and there was more than two meetings is dating.

* get = ficar (in Portuguese) is when a man and woman are no compromise, just kiss or have sex without having to call the next day and have the freedom to meet other people.

Every situation is different...... I am very straightforward with a woman about my intentions. It saves a lot of time and confusion. With that being said.... if this guy has not told you his intentions then ..... you need to ask...... why waste your time on something that is not what you want?

Dudes when in love back in the US do these things , in random order...

1. Pay cab fare and pick you up át your place.
2. Avoid their buddies temporarily, át least until relationship becomes stable.
3. Take you out to dinner ( Mc Donald's does not count ).
4. Take you out to silly Sporting events ( bowling, watch a ball game )
5. Show you their favorite hangouts.
6. Expect you to come up with breakfast after a prévious night of hot sex.
7. Act silly.
