hi everyone welcome back to my channel
my name is Van and today we'll do
another reaction video about dating and
the video today is called you know
you're dating a Vietnamese woman when
dot dot dot
it's pretty mysterious right as a
Vietnamese woman I'm gonna see if this
video is accurate or not all right
without further ado let's get started
This video is sponsored by Vietnam Cupid
[Music]
Hey Ruby so I've been thinking we've been
spending a lot of time together this
year and um
I think you're like really cool like
super cool mm-hmm
well I like spending time with you too
no yeah like I was just kind of
wondering if you kind of want to go on a
date with me tomorrow
okay
an audition for sex oh my gosh=))
what type of girl do you think I am!!!
[Music]
he's like so super confused, okay your
Vietnamese girl might be confused by the
concept of date. In Vietnam you go on
dates once you are in a serious
relationship and hanging out while
you're getting to know each other
true that!
so when I was in the US I was
misunderstanding the concept of date as
well I didn't think date was like an
audition for sex or anything but for me
as a Vietnamese woman I thought date is
something serious it's like this guy is
asking me to be his girlfriend or something
I like the West people think date is like
hanging out getting to know each other
going to a coffee shop and just like
talking super casual but for Vietnamese
yeah, date means that you are in a
serious relationship
[Music]
"Considerate"
boba can win any girl's heart
so where are we going? It's a surprise
you're gonna love it trust me
"Can lead"
yeah taking initiative is very important
[Music]
hmm boba tea? Is it good?
I want one right now oh my gosh
- Hello
- Hey what's up man!
- No they they actually did offer me the
position as head engineer but um I'll
probably get the formal
letter by next week
"Ambitious" - Okay let me call you back
a little bit kind of with someone right now
talk to you soon bye
- Sorry about that - No problem
- So, Have you ever think of something serious?
like um settle down
getting married
have a baby. See!=))
- It must be cold right now It's freezing
outside let's go somewhere kind of
warmer. Cool!
oh my gosh, okay, so know how to lead her not in an
aggressive way, mind you. But being able
to make plans taking initiative having
ambitions are all attractive qualities
yep that's right.
By the way relationships are taken
seriously here. So you're thinking first
date she's thinking marriage potential
yes so um
know how to lead her I feel like taking
initiative is one of the most attractive
quality, if you date a Vietnamese
woman you can impress her by knowing how
to lead or how to make a decision
yeah and relationships are taken
seriously here you're thinking first date
she's thinking marriage potential. I mean
not all Vietnamese women think this way
but I feel like the majority of us do
because family is very important for us
we are pretty family oriented and um
actually we think wedding is once in a
lifetime event and it's very important
in in the girls life
and we actually have many ceremonies
before the official wedding so you know
how serious it is we have proposal
ceremony engagement ceremony and
actually
before the wedding the guy has to
bring gifts and stuff to the girls
family and ask for the girls family
permission to take her
to be his right and stuff so
yeah it's pretty serious in Vietnam
in terms of marriage
- hey guys how are you
go see mom and dad, nice to meet you
you see he's super casual
my weekend was great how was yours ?
oh well how'd you guys do your thing I
know it's like
Bye bye
okay so approval of her family is highly
important so don't go messing it up
manners and respect are a must and at
the very base this means knowing your
greetings and showing high respect for
the oldest person in her family
I absolutely agree with this you know
if you want to get married to a vietnamese girl
you got to get married to her whole family
you're supposed to get along with her family
if you want to impress the girls family
you're supposed to
be good and successful yeah so the
definition of success according to Asian culture
means you're supposed to have
good manners you have
a car a house a high-paying job so
that's why you see a lot of Asian
parents wanted their kids to be
successful by being a doctor a lawyer and
other high respected career. It comes to
the saving face culture and have you
guys ever seen a Chinese commercial when
the girls introduces the guy to her
family and the guy was like showing off
all his properties and his cars and
everything
yeah so getting approval from the girls
family is very important
- What are you thinking about?
- Is it about me?
- Yeah baby it's always about you
- Okay tell me what are you thinking about me?
- you know,
- I love the way your special move works
[Music]
- The movie was great wasn't it - Yeah
- Yes like do all the cars blowing up I was like
what was even happening
well I love the romantic part the cop
was very cute and they so in love
so
do you love me?
expect her to know what you're doing
often very often. Unlike the West where
over communicating can be seen as clingy
Vietnamese girls want to show they are
thinking about you and expect you to do
the same
well I mean
oh forget about looking "cool and collected"
these girls wear their heart
on their sleeves. For me I think
Vietnamese girls are very caring and
loving, they are more like a giver
than a taker so that's why Vietnamese girl
usually like text boyfriends a lot
that can be seen as being clingy
so it's just a way that Vietnamese
people show affection
to show that they care for you
it's called "chả giò" or "nem" in Vietnamese
Vietnamese love fish sauce, yes we do
love fish sauce but we don't use sweet
and sour fish sauce to put in the pho
we just put regular fish sauce in our pho
okay that's a six that's me
that is another
wood and brick and that's one another house
Ah, ah ah! In your face
you couldn't beat me if you tried
I could have both my hands behind my back
I'd still win that's all I'm saying
that's all I'm saying
and one more road for me
honestly I had a really great time tonight
like the games the food like I was
wondering if you wanted to kind of watch
"Frozen" with me tonight we can kind of
kick it and hang out
Sorry, I'm tired
or we can cuddle
she doesn't want to cuddle
But she wanted to get married.
So Vietnamese do not feel comfortable with with open
displays of affection or any arguments
in front of others so be really mindful
of things you say the opinion of the
community is important so saving face is
a real thing yeah so for those of you
who don't know what saving face is about
like impressing yourself protecting your ego
and your pride in front of others
and don't embarrass the other person in public
- Baby I'm just so sorry for
everything I didn't really expect this
to be like this but
I do, oh my goodness
the last part was funny
yeah so I think this video is pretty well done
it's about 70 to 80 percent
accurate. It shows many scenarios when
you date a Vietnamese girl so yeah
If you date a Vietnamese girl just remember
to buy her boba tea
you can lead and you should impress her
parents and learn about the saving
culture as well because it's gonna help
you a lot in the future
yeah so i hope you like this video
if you want me to do more videos about
dating in Vietnam just let me know in
the comments down below okay
I'll see you guys in the next video
byeeeee <3
