Dating a Pole – Valentines Day Special

Dating a Pole – Valentines Day Special

Being Valentines day, we thought it was time to leave translations behind and focus on the language of love ๐Ÿ™‚ With the amount of Polish people living abroad, it’s no surprise that there has been a steep rise in the number of ladies lucky enough to get their hands on a Polishman. So, if you’re dating a Polishman or there’s one who takes your fancy, we thought we’d give you the lowdown so you know what to expect ๐Ÿ˜€ (Sorry men to leave you out on this one, being an industry predominantly made up of women, we did it from a woman’s perspective!).

Hard working
Polish men are very hardworking. They still believe that it is the man’s job to provide for the family, and they will do anything to provide for them. Any job is better than no job, and it’s not uncommon for Polish men to travel to the UK/Germany to save money so they can build a house for their family back home.

Traditional values
Polish men still have very traditional values. Although they don’t all still believe that the woman’s place is in the kitchen, they do like being the man of the house. They like fixing things, and are generally not all that great at cooking! It’s very common especially in smaller villages in Poland for men to settle down early and start a family (which is probably due to the fact that Poland is very Catholic compared to the UK).


Chivalrous
Polish men will treat you like a lady. They’ll hold the door open for you, and make sure that they’re there to be your knight in shining armour.

Mother in law
We couldn’t write about dating without touching on mother in laws ๐Ÿ˜€ As you’ve probably gathered by now, Polish men are very homely and family orientated. And this goes for mother in laws too. While they’re not complete mummy’s boys, they are very close to their family and their mums. Polish families are very welcoming and hospitable, so you don’t have anything to worry about. But, you should be aware of the fact that Polish mums do like to be involved in your life. And it’s a very typical trait of Slavic mother in laws as a whole that they will give you plenty of child-raising advise, whether you like it or not! On the up-side, your mother in law will most certainly be an amazing cook and you’ll never go hungry ๐Ÿ™‚

We can’t help you with dating, but if you need a hand with the linguistic side of things, you know where to find us!
