ONLINE DATING
Effective Communication with Asian Women | Online Dating
Free dating apps make it possible to date someone even when you’re not in close proximity to them. They are also convenient since they can introduce you to a world of romantic options and prospects with which you may not be acquainted, like the world of dating Asian women, for example.
But the thing about a dating app is that it only introduces people to each other. If two people want to make a connection, they are going to need to have some sort of system in place so they can communicate with one another effectively.
There is one catch when it comes to communication and women from Asia, two if you include the language barrier. See, women from Asia are mostly found in Asia, because they are normally from that continent, which means the most pressing barrier to effective communication, outside of the aforementioned language barrier, is distance.
Distance makes it hard to communicate. The most obvious fact wherein it causes hardship is that it makes it hard to get together and touch base. The other way that it makes it hard is the time difference — the middle of the day for one person could be in the wee hours of the morning for the other.
Trying to talk to someone when they are half asleep can be a pretty tricky thing to accomplish, which makes it important for you to have the right equipment should you find yourself in the position to date an Asian woman.
1. A Smartphone
There is no computer platform more successful than the smartphone, and there is no way to describe the smartphone, especially modern variants with tech specs and processing power that rival laptops, as it is almost considered a computer, and as a computer, the smartphone is capable of doing a lot of tasks.
Mobile dating apps are called that because they are meant to be mobile. That is, they are designed to work on smartphones and tablets. So smartphones can be pretty essential when it comes to dating, and they’re also pretty great for verbal communication.
2. A Really Good Webcam
Laptops generally come with webcams built into them and separate webcams can be pretty inexpensive. The quality can be pretty good, and that quality is going to be important, especially when it comes to a long distance relationship.
Not even the best dating apps for relationships can compensate for a subpar camera. As important as software is, it is only one part of the equation. The hardware has to be up to task as well, otherwise, a video call ends up being really grainy and maybe even a little unsatisfying for everyone involved.
3. A Good Internet Connection
Of course, it doesn’t matter how good the gear is if the internet connection that the aforementioned gear is supposed to use is subpar. A good webcam won’t do much to help facilitate face-to-face communication if the connection is sketchy at best.
Basically, without a good internet connection, instant messaging becomes a lot less instant and video calls can freeze, the frame rate can drop, making the picture all blurry regardless of how good the camera and screen are, and they can just drop in the middle of a sentence.
So it is of utmost importance to make sure that your internet connection is good enough that you can at least read each other’s facial expressions.
4. A Translator App
One of the most common ways in which people communicate is by talking to one another. One person makes a series of sounds with their mouth and the other person hears those sounds and then their brain ascribes a meaning to those sounds.
However, that interaction hinges on the assumption that the sounds which Person A makes are understood by Person B. This is not always the case. Sometimes, people are unable to understand the sounds other people make, and this is particularly true if there are variables like different countries in play.
Here’s the thing about Asian women; they are from Asia, and Asia is a large and diverse continent. That diversity lends itself to different cultures and different languages. Those different languages may not be comprehensible to someone who only speaks English.
The language barrier is not something that is insurmountable, however. There are a lot of apps that can help someone learn a new language and it shouldn’t be a problem for you to download one on your phone.
If learning a new language is not exactly viable for whatever reason, there are alternatives. There are apps out there that can translate a person’s speech pretty much close to real time, which means that it won’t be hard to get over the hump that is the language barrier.
5. A Willingness To Be Open
There are countries where small talk is encouraged, like America for example, where people talk about the weather. There are also countries where small talk is looked down on, like Germany, because they don’t have the time or inclination for something they see as a frivolity.
Germans may have a point there, at least when it comes to being in relationships. Sure, couples can make small talk, but small talk should not be the meat and potatoes of conversation when it comes to being in a relationship.
Being willing to be open and vulnerable sure is a scary prospect, but it is also a necessary one if you want to build real trust and a real connection with someone. Yes, it can be scary to let someone in because once they’re in, they can do damage. But letting someone in is also a sign of trust, and trust is one of those things that is pretty much an essential condition of most successful relationships.
Communication is one of those things that is part and parcel of a relationship. A lack of communication can lead to people getting their signals crossed, and when signals get crossed, things can go pretty bad.
Being able to communicate properly with Asian women is something that is going to be absolutely essential if you want to end up with one.
