Having a romantic relationship with someone takes a lot of work. Though a relationship with someone of a different culture is very common, as more and more people cross borders and work in other countries, this kind of setup is something that you would want to think about, since it involves a lot of issues. Maybe you are in love with a partner who has a different cultural background, but it doesn't really matter much to you.
If you are really in love with your partner, First thing you must understand your partner's culture. Whatever cultural background your partner has, you just have to get to know it better. It may be more than the getting-to-know-you process, but your partner will definitely appreciate it if you spend time and effort to find your way into his or her roots.
Secondly, wouldn't it be great if you can meet your partner's family? You can actually learn so much about your partner by meeting the very important people in his or her life. It is also a way of getting your good intentions across to your partner. It might also be an enriching experience to spend some time with them. But we cant expect too much, when you are having a long distance relationship, how oftenly you can go to your partner's house and meet their parents? unless both of you really think of marriage.
Communication is vital to all kinds of relationships. Talk things out with your partner. Tell your partner about your feelings toward the relationship, whether good or bad. Tell him or her all about your fears and hopes. Language barriers may also be a challenge. Think of different ways of reaching out to your partner. Learning a new word of his or her language a day is sweet. You don't need to be fluent at once. Remember, action speaks louder than words. As i mentioned my previous blog, korean man usually wont share their feelings towards their partner. It will reflect that it is their weakness. I'm still attracted by Korean. I'm trying hard to undertsand what they really think about.. However, not all korean are like that.
You might have come from different backgrounds so disagreements will always pop out every now and then. As you learn to accept each other's differences, you should always know how to respect your partner. Depending on how you handle your differences, acceptance will always be the key.
Doesn't really sound like the cultural difference is the issue.The issue is not between Korean men and caucasian women it's between a man and a woman.Why would anyone want to be with someone they can't get along with? You can love someone but it doesn't mean that you need to marry them. You might want to try a "trial separation" and honestly determine if life is better without them. You might want to date another Korean man who you do get along with.Good Luck
