THE VIEW THROUGH THE FOREIGN WOMAN'S EYES - HOW IS TO DATING SERB MAN?

It’s a summer time, vacations are on the doorstep, we’ve been writing about a number of heavy topics, so maybe it's time to relax with some easy summer theme. 
Once upon a time, I've asked my very good American friend, who - unlike the most Americans - had been travelling the whole wide World a lot, if there was something specific, something unique, something different from any other country he had been to, he observed to Serbia? To my total surprise, the answer was - "Your attitude towards children". I have never noticed anything extraordinary in our behavior towards children, of course, so I asked him to tell me in more detail. He said that we were very careful and gentle to children. Not only to our own but someone else's, too, without exception. On the street, in a restaurant, when a child approaches someone, this person always has a kind word, smile at him, strokes his hair, and even play with him. He told me that he didn't see anything similar anywhere in the countries he had visited except in Serbia.

So, some things that are ordinary to us, could be quite extraordinary to somebody who is viewing from the side. The following story is of that kind:

When it comes to dating Serbian men, high heels and a basic knowledge of astrology are useful.

A friend and I were recently in a café in my neighbourhood when a young Canadian girl approached us and introduced herself. She had overheard us speaking English and from our conversation realised we were foreigners, like her, living in Belgrade.

In Serbia, it seems traditional dating customs hold strong, manners are not forgotten and chivalry is not dead. Flickr: Nate Edwards.
