I think I'm done dating Irish/English girls.

Now when I say Irish English, I am referring to women who are over 33% Irish and/or English. My reasoning here from data from dating complied is:

1. I am of a more "romantic" and "warm" European ancestry. Think French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek. Irish/English girls are not "warm and fuzzy", or romantic from my experience. Very stoic, and more standoffish especially when it comes to physical touch. Also the personality is far less flirty than that of the more "romantic" Euro ethnicities. This is a direct conflict with how I approach dating, which is romantic and breaking the touch barrier early. I cannot figure Irish/English women out and how to progress anything with them because it seems the expectations are different. This makes any date with an Irish/English girl feel platonic... and it goes NOWHERE.

2. With Italian/Greek/French/German/Portuguese/Arabic girls, my success rate is 80% for a second date and 70% for a relationship. With a girl who is over 33% English/Irish, my success rate for a second date is 5% and my success rate for a relationship is 1%.

3. They seem to have much more of an "independence" mindset. This goes from being kicked out at 18 and paving their path from there, into not "needing" a romantic partner. This conflicts with many other (including my), Euro ancestry, which typically stay with their parents longer, and are less afraid of being in a committed arrangement with a partner.

I just don't understand what Irish/English girls expect on a first date. Or why my failure rate is so high with them. Sometimes I think they have a stick up their arse. The worst part is, I am most attracted to Irish/English features (light features). But the personalities are just so... cold. Any input greatly appreciated.

You just cant handle a British girl because they probably dont take your crap and call you out lol

@Justenjoyit Not it at all, but believe what you want. Maybe read the whole thread. Italian girls do the same thing. So do Portuguese. Calling out on shit isn't the point here.

@ShadowWolf Not being disrespectful to you but UK people have a different sense of humour to anyone else and I have noticed people get offended quite easily, but for us its a joke.

@Justenjoyit That isn't my issue with British women. And for the record my dad's side is British, so im all to familiar with that humor. Just read the thread, and you will see my issue with British women (and it's an issue I wish didn't exist, because they are lovely otherwise).

@ShadowWolf I have no problems with British woman because I understand them being British myself.

@Justenjoyit I was raised Italian. It's a more "touchy feely" "romantic", "affectionate/warm" culture. So despite my dad's side being British, my mom's Italian side had a heavy influence. That's the reason why dating British girls make no sense to me, and why I believe I'm failing. British girls seem to hate that stuff.

@ShadowWolf Italians are not my kind in Europe they have a bad name.

@Justenjoyit What don't you like about Italians?
Justenjoyit · 56-60, M
@ShadowWolf In Europe they are not to be trusted, and just on the take.

@Justenjoyit It's funny. My grandmother on my moms side (100% Italian), always said that too about her own people lol. She was a character.
