![]() BTW(I've noticed only this in America, no where else per-say). I've noticed alot of Macedonian females don't care to date other Macedonian men and vis verusa. Why is it so hard to date another Macedonian women being an attractive Macedonian-American US soldier male mid 20's who works out a lot? Where do you Macedonians find other Macedonians to date? And if not, do you guys marry/date outside the Balkan circles? I'm just curious to ask because I was with a half black and half white girl for almost 2 years before I left to go deploy. So help me out here, I might have been away from home for a long time.

![]() You are right, it is a thing. Same thing in NJ, Macedonian women don't date Macedonian men. Here is why.
Macedonian men are mama's boys, they are childish and are used to their mom's cooking, cleaning, doing their laundry, picking up after them. Macedonian men tend to be very rude, cocky and overly macho types. They don't have respect for women. Macedonian women in the USA, tend to be well educated, more educated then the men actually. So how many well educated women are going to want to date, childish, rude uneducated men? Then you have the gossip factor. If they date Macedonian men, everyone will know about it. If they date out of Macedonian circles they can keep relationships hidden. So if you want to date a Macedonian woman, you have to overcome those predisposition they have about Macedonian men. If you are persistent and put your best foot forward, you should be able to overcome them. Just don't act like their fathers and you should be ok. Quote:

![]() I appreciate that word of advice, my parents wanted me to go to Macedonia to find a women. Yeah right, I have no time to restart my life and readjust to another countries living, I love Macedonia. But I will be an outcast once I get there, I'd be fighting to fit in, let alone find a women. Lol... Thank you Gocka.

![]() If the macedonian women can't do what the mothers do, why bother with them? The world has gone mad.

![]() Seems different in Australia, dating between Macedonians is common.

![]() Assimilation is faster and more thorough in the USA. I've noticed Australian Macedonians have tighter knit communities and practice traditional customs more commonly. Starting with my generation, marriage between Macedonians is becoming less common. It tends to be the women. They are more likely to want to shy away from their roots and culture than the men.

Most women aren't particularly fond of the house wife stereotype and prefer to have paid income. Since this thread is about wanting to date someone that shares your heritage, try finding someone at Macedonian events. As for the issue of assimilation, start conversations about why remembering and preserving our culture is important, be active in the community and teach the younger generation why they should care about it and how to recognize assimilation and issues in that regard. The french speaking community continues to thrive in Canada precisely because concerns of assimilation and how to deal with that are almost constantly a topic of discussion. Also pretty much all my uncles on my mom's side of the family married women of varied backgrounds, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just teach your kids not to neglect their Macedonian heritage and to be proud of it and you'll manage. Multi-ethnic backgrounds are the norm these days and the Jewish community manages just fine despite most of them having little resemblance to their semitic ancestors from so many years of intermixing with other groups. Likewise there are native american communities with mixed heritage and they manage too. Last edited by Starling; 12-26-2017 at 12:38 AM. |
