What advice would you give a non-Asian who is dating an Asian re customs etc he/she might encounter?

If you were to give advice to a non-Asian who was seriously dating an Asian person, what would be some customs and beliefs that you might tell them about that they might be surprised about down the line?What advice would you give a non-Asian who is dating an Asian re customs etc he/she might encounter?
um, take off your shoes before you go into the house? maybe, don't refuse food--at least try it (for some reason, refusing food is really bad--i suppose it's likened to refusing the culture if you refuse the food..).








but the best advice for the Non-asian would be to ask the Asian, ';are there any customs/traditions i don't know about that i should know so that i won't accidentally offend you, your family/friends?';What advice would you give a non-Asian who is dating an Asian re customs etc he/she might encounter?
Run
it depends. First of all, what ';nationality'; is she/he? Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese etc... next thing is for you to research a little on her/he's customs and beliefs, third thing, get to know him/her above everything. Ask questions. Observe how/what her family does when she/he invites you over to family functions.
Asian starts at part of Russia all the way to Pacific ocean Asia... which part of Asia are we talking about here?
Ask th eperson you are dating what custom their family do. Most asian families are a bit the same but always have something different in it. Most asian families have proper greetings to use on the elder, you might have to take your shoes off before you go in inside their house. You will then be questioned by the dad or someone. Asian families are also very tight with families. If you don't like rice you better or else! Chopsticks you need to learn how to use and properly well-manner with them. Everything else is by asking how to act in front of everyone.
If you are worried about learning customs and beliefs, you need to be more specific which country this ';asian'; is from as we do not share the same customs and beliefs as asian altogether. just an overview... japanese slurp their food to symbolise their appreciation of good food where as we filipinos find it ill-mannered, get the picture?
maybe about how asian parents greatly affects marriage.
theres nothing really surprising.you just have to know her better,particularly her lifestyles..and how she treats other people...
Depends which part of Asia...





Japanese, Chinese. Korean, Philipino, Thai, Indian are all so different!
No difference inside , except all the things cover by skin . We are human being .
Most Asians tend to be more conserative, so they may be more shy about sexuality and stuffs.





If you are dating a Malay female and if you want to marry her, you will probably need a circumcise because that is their customs.
