    What do you think about the Norwegian dating scene?

    Maybe I missed something but the "shopping list" of requirements to date is fine for women to demand but then listen to the outrage when it's applied equally.

    I completely understand Norwegians. I'm 37, in Brazil, I don't seriously date any woman who has children, who doesn't have a source of income and who doesn't wants to be in a relationship. It's extremely difficult to find a woman like that. Now I'm being transfer to Ireland, fingers crossed. LOL

    I think the men just talk about these subjects (wanna have children in general?, how long stay in country? Job? ) because both you (man and woman) are already older, i.e. 35+. You guys are aware that a woman over 30 is considered high risk pregnancy, right? I do not think that a Norwegian man at age 25 would ask these questions if the woman is 22 to 25 years old.

      Absolutely. In my twenties, I'd never ask a woman such questions. If a woman brought up the subject of children or marriage too early while dating, I'd be sketched out and bail. I guess I was what you'd call a f***boy.
      Now that I'm reentering the market at a similar age as this woman, it seems entirely reasonable to ask those questions before proceeding any further. It's not fair to waste the time of women on a limited clock and these Nordmenn are being respectful of that.

    Many people is moving in together without having a really serious relationship because is economically smarter, they can do this even in the first 3-6 months, then they see if it’s serious enough for the next step (ofc depends of the age, when there’s properties involved, there’s more things to consider)

    It's called dating among adults that know what they want...

    Some of these points come across as a very self centered and entitled.
    A lot of her points if you add the word American to it and people would be screaming that you came to a different culture. For the American to adapt to them.

    Wow, what a fascinating culture. It’s completely opposed to the Latin cultures I’m familiar with.
