What cultural differences come up in your relationship?

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

The wife sneezes funny. Instead of, "Aw-choo", it's "Ha-sing". Sounds more like a cough than a sneeze.

I don't want freakin rice with every meal. Had to establish that once she got here.

But .. but .. rice is the base of every meal! Not present if pasta is, but otherwise, rice all the way!

My sweetie won't eat poutine!!!

Arrrrrrrr....

That is grounds for divorce!

My hubby won't eat it either- he hates cheese.

My hubby's from Alberta and he says that they don't really eat it there at all -- he's only had it once or twice & doesn't like it. He says it's more of a Quebecois thing, and then he makes a funny face.

This isn't cultural but it's annoying. My husband will walk in and start brushing/ flossing etc while I'm peeing. He is from a very large family that only had one bathroom.

My husband is OCD clean and I'm, well American.

Also his whole family thinks its odd that I read for pleasure.

I showed my husband that our local library has a few books in Albanian. My husband only reads a book a year so they have twenty years of books for him.

While peeing is fine, pooping - no chance.

planning and "personal space," which whites seem to love... laughing.gif

Oh yeah I can relate to that, her family is a little more intrusive into our personal life that I am use to like but I love them all the same and have had no problem adjusting.

Cow tongue is huge in Brasil too, I never liked the texture of it, but my mom and my oldest brother fight over the last pieces. I like cow's tail much better.

if people saw what cows do with their tongues, i don't anyone would eat it.
