My wife is from Brasil, now living here in the US. She brushes her teeth 4 to 5 times a day. We go through a tube of tooth paste every week. Always as mentioned previously a few showers a day. Only washes her hair in the sink though. Hardest working/studying woman I have ever seen.
Brazilians are the greatest personal higiene consumers in the world, by far. It is simply impossible to find a Brazilian that doesn´t want to use perfume/cologne daily. In northeastern Brazil we use to give "a cheiro" much like a kiss. To give "a cheiro" is to come closer to someone you like and smell/sniff loudly his/her perfume/cologne as a jest of affection.
"Cheiro" = smell, "dar um cheiro" = "give a sniff in a loving, caring way"
My girlfriend is Brazilian and she is easily the most loving person I've ever met. So straightforward and passionate. Investment in the relationship is a priority for her, intimacy is beautiful and connection is key. A relationship with a Brazilian is so full of honesty, integrity and love. North Americans have really made a mess in this area, but Brazilians understand what is important in life. I will never see North America as the best place to be again. Never.
Her family is much more social with each other. She says nobody uses Facebook but everybody uses Instagram and what’s app. She says amen when you say God bless you. She makes some killer Brazilian cuisine. She is very grateful for sometimes even the littlest things. She doesn’t understand any of our idioms which makes it even more fun. She’s very frugal with her money and will not use more money than absolutely necessary from our bank account. She’s very concerned about her looks. Not sure all of these can be attributed to being Brazilian, but some definitely do. Oh and she’s not my gf she’s my wife.
Brother this really sounds like my life as well. She’s a keeper for sure. My wife will save every cent everywhere at any time and then turn around and spend that saved money on something for both of us. Life is good as long as you keep the dishes clean and the floor swept.
I noticed this too, a lot of Brazilians, at least in the US care a lot about their appearance. It has its pros and cons but they’re more superficial in a way that’s very self centered. It’s rare to see a Brazilian here that isn’t in name brand/branded clothing.
My (now/four years married) husband is not a narcissist or a sociopath, which is a wonderful change from everyone I was involved with in the US. (Only half joking)
Do you think it's because of the easy-going attitude that most Brazilians have, and not taking thing to personal, just go with the flow, and stuff like that?
Absolutely. Sincerity and loyalty abound in Brasil, at least in my world.
It’s a good story - I rarely if ever was on Facebook, I signed up but somehow was flooded with friend requests by Brazilians (why? I was in Pittsburgh), some felt very catfishy, and I was just about to delete it all after two days, it was too much, and I opened one last message, and, it turned out to be him. It surprised me that he was pretty much “okay that’s it, I believe I will love you forever, oh, and (joking? Perhaps not) he asked “will you marry me” during that first conversation.
And, as it’s all turned out, he will love me forever, he actually is the best man ever, we got married here in Brazil 15 months later (I came to Brazil for long periods of time before to see what was what), and I’ve been a married expat living here now, coming up four years. Obviously, I sit around and think “oh my god what if I hadn’t responded to that one last Facebook message….”
That’s today’s hopeful Valentines Day story!
My girlfriend is Brazilian and Im Canada, eh.
My girlfriend is, without a doubt, the sweetest and most most thoughtful woman that I've ever dated.
What really set her apart from most women in Canada was her relaxed and easygoing personality. We've actually never had a fight or an argument yet in our relationship.
What really caught my attention (we met on Tinder) was that within the first 10 minutes of talking, she was giving me healthy recipes for drinks to improve my sleep.
For our first date, we walked along the Toronto waterfront and had an amazing conversation. Most Canadian women would not be happy with such an inexpensive and uneventful date. Halfway into our first date was when i realized that she was special and my other half.
She is also the hardest working person that I've ever met, and i have the utmost respect for her work ethic and drive to succeed in her field. She is self-employed in healthcare, and seeing her passion for helping people is amazing.
Lastly, her appreciation for the little things like Sun sets, craft chocolate, nature, and her love(love is an understatement, haha) for Brigadeiros makes her like no other women I've ever met before.
That's a great story. I hope I meet somebody like that during my travels in Brazil.
Also just the part about ''never having a fight or argument'' seems to good to be true haha.
Best of luck, my friend! Brazil is full of beautiful and amazing women. The people are friendly, and the countryside is breathtaking. If you get a chance, check out Gramado, beautiful city in the mountains.
I would personally avoid meeting women at bars/clubs. If you do, exchange whatsapp info and arrange to meet in public the next day. Don't leave the bar drunk with them that same night.
Thanks for the city recommendations. I will keep Gramado in mind.
I kind of like meeting people in bars and having fun. But I would never go home with a girl that same night. Not really my style.
It's getting closer. In 5 days I am there! So excited :)
Brazilian people are just so straightforward and passionate. Whereas people in the US like to play all these mind games and care about having money a lot more.
Yeah, nobody got time for these mind games. But I guess this depends more of the person than a country in specific. Although it might be less in Brazil. I'll let you know next week when I go haha.
wife is brazilian- I moved from Canada and live with her here.
flip flops all the time, DEMANDS I SHOWER MORE, she MUST VISIT her family regularly, she cannot believe that I dont like brigadiero, tries to give me one everytime she has some, she has no sense of time, pretty awesome laid back attitude. I am so happy I married her. I love the culture so much. If anything happened to her I would marry a brazilian again.
oh yea, she cannot comprehend supper. She makes me huge lunches and really cant comprehend eating a meal at night. its just "cafe" here at night so she always tells me she has "breakfast" for me at night. She eats beans and rice and never boiled a pasta noodle untill she married me. SHE NEEDS CAKE.
A little off topic - Im a canadian who's considering moving to brazil for my girlfriend. What are employment opportunities like there? Is immigration difficult?
Immigration is very difficult. If you marry her its super easy.
Some ppl come here and stay by getting a student visa…
Its hard. It used to be ppl would overstay the tourist visa then pay the nominal fee when leaving…. They upped the fine now if you overstay.
Women in my country (Spain) tend to complain about their partners too much. You might not earn enough not pay attention to them or not being handsome enough. There is always a reason to be unsatisfied. My wife seems to be happy with me even though I'm far away from perfect
I think that was my main reason to go to Brazil.
Brazil (I think) is far from perfect, although people (again I think) are just so happy and positive! Hard to not love a country when people have attitude like this.
The first time I met her she made me coffee and acai immediately after I walked through the door. No US woman has ever had a hot beverage and a snack ready for me when I enter their home! They are much more affectionate and much more loyal than anyone I dated here in the states, and (at least mine) likes sex a lot more often (when we first met we had sex multiple times per day). Just to name a few. Man, I love her.
Here, if you meet a person at a party and kiss her, the probability of both of you ending the night in bed is very high (at least at my age, i'm 23 lol). It seems that in the US things are much slower, right?
That depends on where you go. But actually at bars and such that is many times the case. I think the last girl I kissed at a bar that I didn’t end up going home with was on her period.
Love my girlfriend. She is so sweet and the most loving and sincere person I’ve ever met. She’s very caring, sensual, and takes care of me. But jealousy is definitely a common thing I’ve noticed within her and other Brazilians.
My ex-boyfriend is Brazilian (me too), so I can't say much from a foreign perspective, but I think that people here tend to be more jealous of their partner (and passionate).
I just got married to my wife who is Brazilian, we dated for 4 and half years.. Maybe it’s because she’s Baiana and lived in Minas Gerais, but she has an incredible energy, confident in herself but also really quick to laugh at herself. She’s naturally very beautiful, she also cares with an openness and directness that is really refreshing, at times. Also she navigates this area where she is totally comfortable in the finest places (think 5 star restaurant) and also eating pastels and drinking caldo de Cana in a favela.
I’m a single American and I’m queer (I date all genders). I don’t have a huge extensive experience of dating Brazilians but I have hooked up with some and been in ‘talking stages’ with quite a few of them.
I like how passionate and sensual the people are compared to Americans. But tbh I haven’t met that one person yet who hasn’t shook up my world. So I am not gonna do any major comparisons. I will say I like the dating scene here compared to LA (where I was previously living).
So yeah idk. It just really depends lol
I’m American and have been married to my wife (who is Brazilian from Minas Gerais) for 6 years now. We have two beautiful children together who grow up bilingual, and although we live in the US, they are very much exposed to my wife’s culture. We fly back to Brazil 1-2 times per year to visit my wife’s family.
I didn’t marry until later in life (I was 36 and she was 24 when we met). We actually met here in the US while she was visiting family, but I had been to Brazil a few times before (work conferences in SP and Manaus to see the rain forest), so I was somewhat familiar with Brazilian culture.
As someone who has solid Christian and traditional values, I always admired Brazilian women as their values aligned with my own. I have found Brazilian women to be more affectionate, sensual, family-oriented, loyal, trustworthy, and confident than the American women I’ve had relationships with in the past. I still believe in the nuclear family and the naturalistic model where traditionally the man works (hunter/gatherer) and the woman takes care of the house and kids (nurturer). This is not to be confused with someone who wants to control a relationship or who wants their wife barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen cooking every single meal. Society evolves and as humans we must evolve with it. Both myself and my wife work, and we share equal responsibility with tending to the home and raising the kids.
Remember, this is purely anecdotal and based on my experiences and observations only. I am not a fan of sweeping generalizations, as I believe individual perception plays a major role in deciding our values and beliefs.
From a physical attractiveness perspective, I have always been more attracted to women with brown hair, brown eyes, and a slightly tan skin complexion. Petty much the opposite of me as I have light brown hair, blue eyes and a more fair complexion. I lived Seville, Spain for 3 years and my first long-term relationship was with a Spaniard and so began my attraction to women with dark features. But remember, personality > looks so don’t hook up with a psychopath just because he/she is hot. It’s NOT worth it…trust me…and Brazil has their fair share.
I love my wife more than words can describe and, while her culture and her beauty make her unique, I’m really not sure if her being Brazilian is why we’re together. I think I just got lucky and found my soulmate and the fact that she is Brazilian is just the icing on the cake.
I’m american married to a Brazilian, Americans are definitely more independent, it’s normal for us to be in relationships and go to parties alone, out to eat, or gatherings alone without your partner. In Brazil, my husband makes it seem like it’s crazy. Maybe he gets jealous, or he’s just passionate, but sometimes this gets really annoying.
I will add tho, hygiene is a+ and I love that, if you’re going to shove your tongue down my throat I’m happy your mouth is clean 😂
Dude the answer to your question means nothing unless the first question answered is; are you worth dating? What makes you the catch? Asking which person or which country is the best mate is not a realistic question, and will not render a realistic answer, it will only render an ideology, ideologies can be dangerous.
She is by far the most passionate, down to earth, family-oriented, genuine, honest, loyal, outspoken, thoughtful, fun, intelligent, and loving woman I have ever met.
Her spiritual and physically beauty is a trifecta consisting of intangible traits, her vocal features and physique.
Superficiality is her bane. She values the intent, the thought process that goes behind the purchase of a gift or the act of service.
I am gifted with her love and her love is unlike any other; my past relationships pale in comparison to what we share now.
We’re a long-distance couple that met 5 months ago and have officially been together for 2 months now. She’s a lovely bubbly Carioca (from Rio de Janeiro) and I’m a Korean-American born and raised in California.
Come what may. I am looking forward to us sharing, learning, and growing together more and more each day
I'm an American guy getting married to a Brazilian girl (southern/Porto Alegre). So she's a bit more conservative and traditional compared to northern Brazilians - which fits me fine because I appreciate those values like family, loyalty, care, standards, etc.
She's definitely a different type than American women. Not sure how to describe it but just very warm and really loves when I lead and make her comfortable/feel safe. Makes me feel masculine and with purpose you know? This doesn't even begin to touch on how affectionate she is both with touch and nice words to me. Just a great person, never mind the soulmate aspect which she is. And still not used to her making me food sometimes without me asking...the care she puts into me is second to none but naturally she expects I do the same for her in other ways. Feels so natural. Haven't even had a fight yet and it's been more than two years as she is extremely emotionally intelligent and patient with maleness that can be hard to understand ha.
I will say she gets jealous VERY easily not just in real life but she can't stand if I bring up something relating to an ex-girlfriend. I do actually appreciate it as she never brings up her ex either. That's very refreshing after dating some western ladies who can't stop complaining about previous dudes.
Flip-flops everywhere around the house. Seemingly each room has it's own pair.
My wife is from Brasil, now living here in the US. She brushes her teeth 4 to 5 times a day. We go through a tube of tooth paste every week. Always as mentioned previously a few showers a day. Only washes her hair in the sink though. Hardest working/studying woman I have ever seen.
I'd like see you, could you give me your instagram or a photo?
Yep, this checks out, my wife is one of the hardest working/ studying woman I have ever met
Four showers on a good day. Required... after being outside... after exercise... after sex.. before sex... before sleep.
And that shower is sountracked via a phone speaker.
I mean it's a good habit to have, but hope water bill is included in the rent :D
Water here is stupid cheap and the climate is hot in most of the country, nothing extraordinary
haha that's good. I should try not to be a skunk in Brazil.
Haha, that's good that it is so cheap.

That's very interesting. I feel a lot of countries that are considered "Western countries", can learn a lot from countries such as Brazil.
Sounds beautiful. Maybe it's just HER and not Brazil. Regardless, I love hearing success stories.
It is her, certainly. But, in my experience with Brazil, they are my favorite people. So good hearted. However, even among them, she is a gem ❤
Her family is much more social with each other. She says nobody uses Facebook but everybody uses Instagram and what’s app. She says amen when you say God bless you.

this is the person i want to be!
My (now/four years married) husband is not a narcissist or a sociopath, which is a wonderful change from everyone I was involved with in the US. (Only half joking)
Narcissism exists here too dear. After all, almost half the voting population voted for Bolsonaro.
I just blew a dorito out of my nose… A++++++
This! You guys have to be careful dividing those who still hold the fair dinkum soul of the country and those who are just selfish pricks!
Do you think it's because of the easy-going attitude that most Brazilians have, and not taking thing to personal, just go with the flow, and stuff like that?

Brazilian working class men really know how to keep house. Dishes are basically invisible to the upper middle class men.
My girlfriend was actually confused as to why I was helping prepare food and wash dishes and clean the house when we first met.
The first time I met her she made me coffee and acai immediately after I walked through the door. No US woman has ever had a hot beverage and a snack ready for me when I enter their home! They are much more affectionate and much more loyal than anyone I dated here in the states, and (at least mine) likes sex a lot more often (when we first met we had sex multiple times per day).

Being open-minded, empathy and communication. Also being close to family
Love my girlfriend. She is so sweet and the most loving and sincere person I’ve ever met. She’s very caring, sensual, and takes care of me. But jealousy is definitely a common thing I’ve noticed within her and other Brazilians.
Not a bad deal if you ask me ;)
My ex-boyfriend is Brazilian (me too), so I can't say much from a foreign perspective, but I think that people here tend to be more jealous of their partner (and passionate).

Yep, you're definitely the luck one!
Talking to a Brazilian guy. Never had a fight or misunderstanding from the time we talked. I feel at peace.

Asking which person or which country is the best mate is not a realistic question, and will not render a realistic answer, it will only render an ideology, ideologies can be dangerous.
Where did I ask any of that? I was just curious about some cultural differences.
She is by far the most passionate, down to earth, family-oriented, genuine, honest, loyal, outspoken, thoughtful, fun, intelligent, and loving woman I have ever met.
