Have you ever dated or married an asian guy?

I am asking this because from what I have been experiencing they seem to want to take things far and fast.
I met a guy not so long ago and he says he wants to introduce me to his parents and he is speaking about marriage and to me that is going fast.

I dated a Japanese American woman for a while and I don't think the culture is gender-specific when it comes to things like this.
Family is a very big deal. As is marriage and locking in a future. I was able to dance it around for a while but it wasn't long before we had 'the talk.' In my case, that prompted "the walk." So while life is always a case by case thing, in general you're not just dating the person - you're dating the family too. Don't know your situation but you may want to draw your line in the sand now because I bet more pressure will come. It might not even be what he wants but what his parents want. It's an awesome culture but they do things a bit differently.
