My Asian man is Korean and his name is Jason. This is our story.



1. What led you to appreciate asian men and asian culture?

I always had an interest in Asian entertainment and that seemed to lead to my attraction to Asian guys.

2. How did you meet your significant other? Circumstances?

Jason went to the same high school I did. I was actually dating a friend of his that was Asian in 11th grade. It was a guy that hung around with him and a few others. I didn't really talk to Jason much then. He was just a friend of my boyfriends. Anyway, about 7 months later me and the other guy broke up. I finished high school without really talking to Jason or seeing him much. I went to college in another State and dated other people as people usually did. Jason went to college in our home town. After I graduated, I went back home and started working. I just went on with life as everyone does. About a year or so after that, I actually ran into Jason again at a concert of all places. A group of my high school friends met up to go. He was one of them because he knew a couple of people in the group. Anyway, we all went to the concert and had a great time. We went for drinks afterwards. Jason was sitting next to me and we just naturally started talking. I had not seen this guy in like 5 years but something seemed to click between us. When the evening was over, he asked me for my phone number. He called a few days later. We talked on the phone. We met up for a date in the weekend. Nature took it's course and we fell in love.

3. Where do you see yourselves going forward from this point on?


We plan to move in together later this year. There have been some issues we have had to go through. I had a very bad thing happen to me when I was 17 and he has been a big support for me. I love him all the more because of that. He has been there for me when other guys would have ran. He is my special man, my best friend and my lover. Because of him, I love Asian men even more. I honestly can see myself marrying this man in the future.

4. What have you learned from your IR experience thus far?

Jason was born here in the US so I have not had a language barrier with him or much Cultural issues. He was raised by parents born and raised in Korea but since he was raised here, he has the American mentality. There are some ways he does think very traditional though. He has the traditional way of thinking in relationships and family values. I love him very much for that. I couldn't be with him if he didn't think the way he does. He is super intelligent too.

5. What advice can you impart to others who are new to IR relationships?


Respect each others Culture and values. Talk things out and support each other.

gotta love it when you find each other again!
