- Today I talk to Gabriela, a local friend who has starred in many Dating Beyond Borders episodes talking about the culture of Chile and who has also helped co-write the episode on dating a Chilean man. We have an honest conversation about toxic relationships in Latin America, the difference between dating in Chile and North America, the classist attitudes of Chileans and how they relate to the dating scene and much more.

At about 28 minutes: "I don't already know you, so no, I don't want to go on an informal coffee date where I could start to get to know you." Stop and think about it. Obviously, she hasn't. I don't mean it as a person criticism - it just makes no sense. I might be a man you'd have a great time with, you might want to get into a regular relationship with me, and you might even want to marry me, but you won't take 30 minutes to start the process? Ladies - all we can to is try. We can't magically guarantee that we are your perfect partners on first meeting. The burden is on us to approach you and ask. After that, the burden is on you to take a chance.
Congratulations! Thank you Marina and Gabriela for affording a delightful and informative conversation between two lovely women in Toronto - my favorite North American city. 😊
Oh gosh I'm Asian I've found a lot of similarities between Chilean and Asian dating cultures! We also value our relationships a lot more than spontaneity and appearances.
Yes, but as a Latina, I've tried and seen Asians try to date Latinos and it doesn't work
I worked with a Chilean guy in the early 1980s. He had married an American girl, but he was a total dog. He would keep a change of clothes in his car when we went out to bars just in case he didn't go home that night. Then I moved to another company, where there was a guy who was originally from Cuba. He was in a bar near work one night during his lunch break, and his fiance found him in there and threw her engagement ring in his face. She had caught him at it somehow. My general impression of Latino men in the US - dogs. Always looking for the next piece. Needless to say, not ALL men, but still.
😂😂they call out my man and started cursing at him. Legend!
Don’t widely embrace the Anglo model of therapy, Chileans!!! It will fracture your sense of belonging and community and spread selfishness and loneliness.
Also, I would like a slow burner relationship, but in America, everyone is busy, so they can't commit to one activity. Unless it is the gym, and I go to a gym where most are married already, there is no future. I can go to meetups, but who knows when I will see someone, so I need to react fast. I wish I could find that answer. There is always date women? They can relate to eachother I guess...
This is one of your best interviews so far, keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you! Happy that you liked it 😀
Awesome conversation!
Gabriela, I know a single, emotionally mature, self-aware English American living in the UK who also speaks Spanish... me! 😂
