What Japanese Men Hate on a Date

idk, I like moe ringtones >:

The only thing I do is complain that it's crowded...who the hell complain's that they have sore feet on a date?

And expecting your dinner to be paid for is sexism in my opinion...I always pay half. :]

Girls always complain about sore feet when invited for a walk. What a pain.

"Take the attitude that a treat was a right."
LOL What's the meaning of this sentence?

Actually, I couldn't agree more with the list, i hate mosst if not all of the above mentioned

This list is SOOOOOOO right, hate all that stuff

picture is so win...moe sex

#10 has always been a pet peeve for me

I at least like to have a little conversation before I break out the Rufi.

For me it's don't talk about your friend's lives or hobbies, talk about what YOU like.

Heh actually the only time I have dated a Japanese girl was something like this...

Checking email constantly is very annoying...

It's all true!!! It's supposed to be a date! Do your best to be a good partner, and we'll do the same dammit >_<

That list is missing a few things.

2. and 3. are real turnoffs for me. I hate anyone being classist in public, or not paying attention. Fortunately, on my (few and scant) dates so far, 2. has never happened; and 3. has happened on occasion, but she always apologizes and sets to silent mode.

God, I HATE when girls check their phones for texts during dates. So disrespectful and insulting.

Anyone would hate these things..
Even when the perpetrator is a man although unlikely..

I wonder how many of these "men" have gone on an actual IRL date...

lol if she is texting all the time that means shes not into you

3. Do nothing but check for mail.

Er, well, both my girl and i do it from time to time (we don't check mails actually, we browse facebook, forums, or somesuch), especially while we wait for orders. Both of us are guilty, so we don't make it a big racket out of each other really.

most of those complaints appear to be from the females lack of interest in the date.

No. 10 especially, this doesn't need to apply to dating. I hate those girls that do this.

1.) Unless we;re going out for my birthday, I expect everyone to treat each other well and enjoy. Even then on my birthday everyone should be happy and not worshiping me

2.) I am always nice to wait staff because they have to do that all day. Forcing themselves to be nice to rude customers must suck. I always tip well, too.

3.) Ew. This and cell phones are the bane of any social experience. Burn on sight.

4.) This I can understand as crowds make me insanely uncomfortable, but if I'm with someone I like well enough, I can stomach it

5.) This really also depends on the situation. If I'm really uncomfortable or tired/not feeling well then yeah I'll suggest leaving, but not make it a requirement unless I'm puking on my shoes. Alternative: Take turns picking out where you go.

6.) This is somewhat reasonable to me.

7.) Part of going out for a while is minor inconveniences. Unless you just stepped on a rusty nail, go sit down for a couple minutes and get back up.

8.) See 3 because arrrrrrrgh. You came to be with me, not your friends. They can wait until I drive you home and we've said goodnight to talk.

9.) I like treating people a lot, but I don't like it when people expect to be put on a pedestal and bronzed and admired endlessly. I don't exist to be your loyal lapdog.

10.) This would also bother me. The least you could do is talk to me. I don't care about what, just be interested and try.

i wonder where i seen the picture

i am normal wif 4,8,7,2 but 3 omg i am so dots ._. de whole date check MAILS only

Surprisingly normal, considering the articles Artefact has posted about Japanese women shows their batshit insane when it comes to relationships. I guess the genders balance each other out in this situation.

I pretty much loled at 7 there,

Do nothing but check for mail.

Make no effort to make conversation.

Haizz

1. I always treat. Its the gentlemen thing to do.

2. Its never okay to be rude towards a waiter. They're just doing their job.

3. If all she does is check her text/mail. I would start texting her. She'd probably think its cute.

4. If its crowded in a place that usually isn't crowded then sure I'd be upset as well.

5. If you want to do something else then say it. Its 2009 be upfront about what you want to do. The whole point of dating is to see how compatible we are. Test the limits.

6. Regardless of who you are I'd give you my undivided attention. If you wish to return it that is completely up to you.

7. Sore feet? I've got the magic fingers.

8. You can always tell what kind of person they are based on their ringtones. I personally run a little Yusef Lateef as my default.

9. As I stated before I always treat. But if you feel uncomfortable with that I'll make an exception for you.

10. This can be very frustrating. Based on the atmosphere a date can turn sour. If I'm the only one trying to make conversation I'll probably end up talking about the weather or much worse.

no 6 should be put at first

4, 5, and 7 seem fairly harmless provided they aren't excessive.
2, 8 don't get a callback.
3, 6, 10 don't get a callback and they're definitely paying for every penny of their own expenses.

If a girl is constantly screwing around with her cellphone it's the wrong kind of girl you're dating.

most are reasonable.. and on the treating... if i ask them out, I pay, if they ask me out.. they pay. 2nd 3rd date.. usually pay for yourself, or sometimes i treat if i have the money, and there worth it. goes with anything on the date.. if we go see a movie.. i pay, dinner, put put golf, etc. :)

most of those are just plain rude ><
But the sore feet, is a bit insensitive of the guy; if your partner tries to dress up a bit and wears heels that she isn't used to her feet will hurt -.- that's nothing to get pissed over.
That's a chance for a little skinship imo.

Lol, I know a girl who fits perfectly in this list.

1.Thats like every male its about respect.
2.I don't want to suffer embarrassment in a restrant I do understand that the waiters are just doing there job.
3.I don't have a issue with that unless its for buisness not soical.
4.Enochlophobia I met a woman like that before take her to a place less crowed.
5.Oh boy...that one is tough one to do.
6.I guess it doesn't show interest with me.
7.It happen while walking ether in high heels thats what taking brakes are for.
8.If you play "My little pony" theme song on your ring tone I am going to be laughing my ass off.
9.Oh if you start demanding or disrespecting me the date is over.
10. Its kind of hard to bring up a good subject of conversation to talk about sometimes I wonder what Japanese men would talk about to a Female?

I don't see a problem with complaining about sore feet if you're walking a lot, but they may just be because my girlfriend's feet tend to hurt to the point she can't even stand on them sometimes..

But the rest, I hate those, too. It's really disrespectful when someone does that shit on a date.

Seems like Japanese men are almost like ordinary women when it comes to dates.

Tsk, be happy that they had one. It seems harder nowadays just because of people expecting too much on the first moments.

Seems very true towards international standards. Especially the I want to do something else part...

Mel Kano~~!! Kyaha~~!!

4. Get unhappy just because it is crowded.

THIS. It's the most inane of complains, and it nags the shit out of me. "THERE'S MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE IN HERE IT'S TOO CROWDED NOW I'LL BE IN A MAD MOOD FOR AN HOUR"
And she doesn't even say it in some tsundere voice.

1. Expect to be treated as a matter of course.
lol no. I heard the funniest date story on that matter. The guy went out for dinner with a woman for their first date and all, and mind you they were at a not so cheap restaurant. The dude never said he would and he did a prank on her by going to the toilet for an extended period of time when the bill was coming whilst having said to the waiter that he'd pay his part only. I think he never got back with that woman lol.

lol
Each of my dates consisted 200% of this. :)
And I was dumped 7 times.
lol
And I never even thought something was wrong and could be in any other way. xDDD

9. Take the attitude that a treat was a right.

This applies to chinese girls pretty well.
Chinese mens are machos, but girls are generally worse.
I know few exceptions to that fact.

Signs like this mean its time to bail out LOL!

1. Expect to be treated as a matter of course.
of course a guy would get mad at this. you're going on a date with me as much as i'm going on a date with you.

2. Take a haughty attitude to waiters.
well that's just rude.

3. Do nothing but check for mail.
rude again. why don't you go on a date with your cell phone instead?

4. Get unhappy just because it is crowded.
i'm fine with chilling in a park if you want to.

5. Want to do something else.
ok, think of something else.

6. Keep looking at other members of the opposite sex.
hey, if you don't mind me checking out other chicks and maybe getting a number or two, then we're cool. otherwise, we own each other for the duration of our date.

7. Complain about being tired or having sore feet.
ok, no big deal, let's sit down.

8. Make a racket with ringtone after ringtone.
silent plz. and by "plz" i mean "now".

9. Take the attitude that a treat was a right.
hahahahaha.
on a side note, once i told a japanese girl off about doing this with her bf and actually convinced her that she was being a bad person XD

10. Make no effort to make conversation.
mmmkay i'm gonna go call up someone else who actually wants to go on this date.

4. Get unhappy just because it is crowded.

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS.

I would agree with everything but “Want to do something else.” And “Complain about being tired or having sore feet.” Because last week I went out with my BF and I told him I’m bored and tired especially because I just got off of work and he just drag me all over SF just to go shopping for sun glasses and window shopping. I told him I’m bored and he got piss off and said he wants to go home and drag my arm and said I don’t tell him anything. I told him that what he wanted to do I went along with it but when I’m interested in something he just drag me always. And when I said “I’m bored” he just throws a bitch fit. Of course I would be bored we been looking at nothing but men clothes and men sun glasses and the whole time I wanted to sit down and didn’t get a chance. I even told him I was hungry and he told me lets wait half and hour so he could shop some more. I told him everything and he still complains that I don’t say anything so I just walk off and he just follow me. He kept asking where we are going and I didn’t respond and just kept walking but he try to drag me again and I just kept going until I hit a Japanese tea cake shop that was recently open. I always wanted to go there but never got a chance and I told my BF about it. So he bought me something there and we made up. Afterward he kept trying to buy me expensive clothes just to make up some more and I just say no because it’s a waste of money especially since I don’t need it or want it. I’m not a materialistic girl I just want to be respected, and if your partner is bored or complain about being tired you should try to understand why. I understand why my BF act the way he did because he is just like the many Asian men who grew up in male dominance society and just want the woman to do what they want. Women get sore feet because the men drag them everywhere and a lot of woman wear high heels.
