This is also super helpful as a white person dating an Asian person 😂

[et]

All my boyfriends have been so scared to meet my Japanese dad lol
A big way to impress Asian dads is towards the end of the meal at a restaurant pretend you have to use the bathroom and pay the bill.

In the Philippines even though we're also Asian, it doesn't matter what you do when it comes to some Chinese families. Even if you speak the language, are well educated, etc, for some Chinese families it's still a no as long as you're not Chinese 💀

the "eat everything they give you" bangggg onn😂❤

Damn this makes me so thankful for what I have. My boyfriend and I are both Asian and we are fortunate enough to not have to worry about these things at all. My parents are chill and don't care about these expected Asian customs, and the same goes for my boyfriend's parents

So blessed to be raised by Asian parents who believe in being yourself and welcoming all people into their home ❤🥢

I just read ali wong’s dear girls and she makes a BIG point to talk about how important bringing fruit to meet the parents in (asian) culture is. Lol her man brought two plums and a banana from whole foods, she was so embarrassed fjfjf

I’m epileptic, and I was so nervous when I introduced my boyfriend to my family that I ended up having two seizures that day😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Me and my boyfriend are both Korean but our parents are totally different his parents are really chill while my parents are very strict and formal people I had to warn him about them😭 at least they accepted us. But my parent thought that my boyfriend was disrespectful at first because he give off a cold look all the time but he's actually really sweet. One of the reason I'm sure they accepted us because he came over with 600 dollars worth of gifts and the also found out that he can cook and clean and that hes going to college for a law degree.😭

my boyfriend is a shy type infront of my parents. When hr met my korean dad, he was so nervous but as he was also korean, he could speak to my dad openly. I was sitting there dumbfounded as I couldn't understand a word they said! I was looking forward to speak to my mom as I knew a little bit of hindi, I wanted to talk to her but I was shocked when She started speaking in korean with the both of thrm! bruh, I was soo jealous!

My daughter is a white girl and in middle school, for some reason all the Asian boys at school are crazy for her, they all ask her to sit with them for lunch, they bring her snacks like oranges, apples and other healthy things. So this is a good video because she will probably end up dating one of them. They are so sweet to her, AND me, whenever they see me they say hello and once at a birthday party one of them even went and got me food and the other one got me water. LOL! It was so respectful.

Mexican here, but mom has the same mindset, so I still find very helpful 👍👍

[jenifergarcia]

if y'all are dating a filipino, make sure you know how to "mano po" when greeting the parents and when leaving the house, to say po at the end of every sentence (even if they are speaking in english!), and "opo" and "no po" for yes and no. obviously not a hard requirement (esp that last one) but it's more likely to endear you to filipino parents ESPECIALLY if they're from the mainland omg

Though there is more than one type of "Asian" parents, the general suggestions are great and not limited to just 'asian" parents. If you are to meet her filipino parents, here are some present suggestions: bring something from your home country. It is the practice of pasalubong, nut if your home country has nothing to be proud of, anything import is OK. For women some Swiss or Belgian chocolate (Toblerone, Lindt, Ferrero Rocher, Godiva) or 'French' perfume (it doesnt need to be hugely expensive). Men i find a bit harder, but i have been succesful with booze (Heineken), branded T-shirts and a fishing rod. Depending on the 'social class' of your gf"s parents on a 2nd visit more day-to-day practical stuff can make them love you; bring 5kg of rice, or a chicken. However, if her parents make good money, that gesture can be seen as insulting.
If her parents live in a western country, the chocolate and perfume are still a good suggestion as is the Heineken (unless a T-totaler).

Nice tips. If I may add, the core value is to be respectful to the elders, honour their culture, be kind, be polite, throw away that "freedom" and "putting myself first" for a while. Asians appreciate community value more than individual. So, if you can't help yourself from being self-centered in front of the parents and bad at conflicts resolution, you're gonna have problems to receive their validation.

Rule #1: be asian or white or don't bother

I’m Asian (Vietnamese/Chinese) and I’m soon to be meeting my Asian (Korean) boyfriend’s parents. I’m super nervous but already got all the planning in place. Just need to brush up on my Korean pronunciation and hopefully should be good! 😅

My boyfriend brought fruits, veggies and even 2 live chickens... you can cook a dish for lunch with it.
