People might be shy here but still want to date and because no one is approaching here, just making the first move can make you stand out for your favor.

I've dated many Finn men and for some reason, I find them to be the sweetest of all the other men I've met from other nationalities. Finns are the best!
That's great!
Why didnt u lock one then
Finnish Jungle Fever. they're no more nicer than any others out there.. cept maybe Irish and Russian. :p
Aleksi: don't get too physical too soon
Also Aleksi: kiss on the first date
Haha! Don't try to kiss in the first 15 minutes or so. :)
I'm dating a finnish man for around 6 months now, so far he is a shy man which makes him looks so adorable for me lol they are shy but after they know you and comfortable with you, they'll show you their inner self lmao I'm happy having my Finn boyfriend, he is such a good and polite man that i've been dreaming so far. Nice video Aleksi! Greetings from Indonesia
Good stuff!
I like it how you explain everything, very very detailed ;) I guess you are an expert on Finns dating haha. Cool. Keep up the good work
I guess it's just the experience. :P
Hello Aleksi!
I have watched a few of your vlogs and have really enjoyed them!
I have learned so much about Finland.....I hope I can visit there sometime.
Keep up the good work! 😃😃
Thanks for the comment Deborah Carter!

God bless you Aleski for making this video
Thanks!
@@AleksiHimself you will be the first person I contact when I get to Finland by the grace of God in Jesus name. I'm trying to apply for tourist visa to Finland before the end of this year.
I love how every Finn I know always says tree 🌲🌳 instead of three :D 😂♥️ and remember: you’re awesome :p
Remember that Finnish does not have a sound like that, either the other Nordic languages too
I do wish that English had kept the letters "þ" and "ð"
It would be a bit less confusing for pronunciation. Thankfully, the Icelanders were isolated enough to preserve their language some.
Haha :D The reason is in Finnish we have no aspiration (the puff of air when you pronounce for example three) which is a unique characteristic of the Finnish accent.
Aleksi Himself - Videos about Finland 🇫🇮♥️ i was never criticizing it or anything - as I said: I love it :D it always makes me smile when I hear it cuz it’s super cute :D
Finnish accent is awesome! Super Finntastic!
We used to have the th sound in Finnish but it was replaced by d.
thank you very much! ;)
Thanks for the comment Gabryfox!

Finnish girls are the best. I am so happy that I used to live in Suomi Finland. They are wonderful women.
Thanks for the comment jazzbeau507!
Finn girls are brutally honest. Don't judge them or cut them when they talk unless you enjoy fight but have the tactic/skills to right things up hahaha. Damn I love Finn girls great vid Aleksi thanks man.
Thanks for the comment George Tow!
I met with my Finnish bf cz of tinder😂 , he isn’t shy but very lovely guy😍😍
Good stuff!
Hey Guys I will be coming to Helsinki for daygame practice session on 28th- 29thAugust. Searching for a wing there.
My partner and myself despite being engaged for a year are planning on going to a bakery since he's a bit of a foodie so I'm making sure that he's covered after I pick him up from the airport.
Good stuff!
Yay I'm not so sacred any more I just need to find what I'm looking for thanks! 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thanks for the comment Kaleb The Historian!
I met a Finnish guy and dated him for a long time! I would’ve married him! He was awesome! He was NOT Shy at all! He was born to be the leader that he is and He was very direct and masculine, very strong and dominant and soooo sexy and passionate! He became my best friend and we were inseparable because our energies really matched … but I had to go back to America for business and he had to travel East for business and Covid separated us! So I hope I find another Finnish guy like him one day if I’m single!
That's great! Thanks for sharing!
If you would have been really in love with each other, you would have joined him East or he would have followed you back to your continent "America", don´t know which country you refer to, but to that country, he should have joined you.
finnish gentlemen I am available 😂
Good stuff!
I am married but If I ever have a chance of meeting a nordic/baltic man, ......... haha
Haha
He is already married🧿✅
I m puoli suomi and italia 😊 have some advice for me ! What can i do with this différence 😂😂
I'm very confused with the "don't get physical too soon" I mean in the 3rd datr I can touch her hand and hold it even walk or sitting but say her good bye with a kiss in the first date is not too physical?
"Too soon" means don't do it too soon for her. For instance, if you are on the first date, don't try to go for the kiss in the first 5 minutes. Personally, I slowly build the physicality with simple touches (like on the arm) and as she feels for comfortable with it, I gradually make bolder touches. I always go for a kiss on the 1st date if I like her.
@@AleksiHimself and how works based on your experience with finnish girls? means like you are a casanova hahaha ?
Hmm... Is this really that specific for Finns? Sounds a lot like basic dating tips... for absolute beginners... and considering the fact that I’ve never been on a date, I guess that includes me..
PS: Tony’s chocolonely is also fantastic!
Many of these tips could be applied to anywhere in the world.
is finish girls are loyal in relationship?in my opinion,, in love loyalty is essential than love.
Hi Aleksi I am just curious, are you still currently being with your Japanese girl? :)
No I'm not.
oh sorry to hear, but why :( @@AleksiHimself
Ok so i’ve never dated a finn but i met this finn guy once,we just met and we immediately clicked. i can say he’s actually a little bit shy and i’m a shy person too,but since he’s shy i had to throw in most of the convo topics and whatever,btw he said hi to me first so it’s not like i said hi to him first lol. He was cute tbh,he also made a plan for us to go swimming the next day in the morning bc he likes to do that for a morning workout,but then i texted him in the morning but he replied an hour later saying he was asleep. after that i think he made 2 other plans with me but ghosted me on those 2 lol i caught feelings bc we really clicked & i’ve never clicked like that with anyone especially when i just met him for the 1st time. I was 18 & dumb back then I guess &i’m 22 now. So i don’t know what i did wrong tbh but that broke my heart tbh bc like i said i caught feelings. So it was hard moving on from him bc he was so my type. Good thing that came out of it is definitely i started going to the gym bc i needed to do something to get my mind off him & lemme just say,i transformed myself a lot physically & mentally,i guess thanks to the guy right ;D
I think you just discovered game in your early 20s to get confident :D
That's actually what happened. I got The Game by Neil Strauss on my hands in my early 20s and that was a game changer in my life.
I can say that I use Tinder and always wait for a girl's reply (most are Finns, by the way), but I'm ghosted 90% of the time. Any idea why?
That's just how tinder is pal, the best you can do is to give the best opening you can think of, try to exploit their bio or their pictures or their music taste. It might not work still, but you gotta try and eventually you will succeed (also try it in real life too)
So you succeed 10% of the time, that is a huge quantity of women in sheer numbers.
This is so curious I always thought the Finnish was like this, but suppose that like in all the parts of the world this is not a general rules, for example the ex-girlfriend of my ex-boyfriend is Finnish and was totally economically dependent on him, she always was very needy and had terrible and unhealthy habits! :/
I wish I could. But because of the distance so... And I need to give up. Tired of love. It's like playing games. And I hate it.
I lived almost 2 years in Oulu and approaching worked very well to befriend the guys. I was surprised at how easy it was to open a conversation with them and befriend them but with girls it was completely different.
The most respectful ones were already in relationships but the rest usually didn't want to talk at all, were rude, were in a bad mood or didn't want to speak English.
Approaching on the streets is something that I believe is not considered normal so it triggers a lot of bad reactions, I think this is one of the main problems.
The only way I could meet a girl who liked me was through one of my male Finnish friends that I met by approaching people but besides that it was impossible. I did some estimations and I got rejected by more than 100 women approaching like that and never got a single date. I also had also discussions with at least 4 friends who're also foreign and they noticed the same thing. One of them even said that they looked at him like an insect in the bars because of how dismissive they were.
I personally know foreigners who have approached in the streets successfully (a friend of mine found her GF this way). It's not common but if you know how to approach in a friendly way, it's an advantage cos other guys don't have the balls to do it.
What I used to do, is even if I got rejected, I asked feedback for my approach and the ladies gave good tips. Try that.
That’s really weird, I have the opposite experience. I have been living in Finland for more than 10 years and in different cities around the country. In general, finnish girls are more curious and more chatty than finnish men. I have no problem talking to girls, but with men it’s another world, to the point that I gave up making any male finnish friend. They are only chatty when drunk and next morning “pretend” they don’t know you.
Perhaps it’s also than I am married and girls do not see me as a “threat”. My advice is to talk with girls who have been in exchange or lived for awhile abroad, they are more used to talk to “strangers”.
could you tell me what's dating site in Finland 😁thanks I like Finnish men
Tinder, OkCupid
Hello Finnish guys, I'm available hahah. I'm mexican :-) . But hey all my stories have been sad with finns... maybe I should stop it here after 8 years of trying. The reason is they have cheated on me. Simple as that. Other were already taken and I didn't know.
Last one disappeared after he told me he was scared of the feelings he had for me... even I never texted him too much, I always gave him space and time, and still it failed :( he was the most beautiful Finnish man I had seen.
I mean like he liked me too much and he was scared :(
Sorry to hear that. Maybe the type of men you get attracted tend to be bad? There are lots of good men out there. You just need to find them. :)
Hello Rose, are you in finland?
The land of true. Metal
Freedom from rap
i personnely like and respect this quality of finns,to value once personnel space ,But isn't that amazing that men should know what is too much and what is too little.I can be damn sure that a conservative man from Asia,will definitely find it hard to go for a finnish girl and if he does he will be friendzoned, from what you tell.So my question is Are finns open and understandable to cultural differences or are they judgemental?
Some are, some are not. Just like in any other country. My Finnish female friend has a Japanese girlfriend.
If i am shy guy and she is shy girl so how to we start 😂😂😂
If no one does anything, nothing will ever happen.
You advise people to approach Finns anywhere, but doesn't that go against the personal space principle? Won't Finns think you are a freak if you approach them in a supermarket, for example? The about regarding the kiss on the first date, maybe you can afford it at 1.93m, but imagine a small girl trying to kiss a 1.90m guy and then he pulls away or he doesn't even realize what you're trying to do. And you FAIL! Again, from my experience, Finnish dudes seem pretty aloof or downright uninterested from the very beginning. Not sure if they're shy (that's what everybody says, I am sceptical) or if they know how hot they are and just pretend to be shy. Or there is the other scenario where a guy seems totally uninterested and then he catches the moment and just blurts out that he totally likes you and he'd do this and that to you. Like there is no middle ground. And definitely don't approach when wasted, I've experienced that too and it wasn't nice. :))
Approaching people and invading personal space are two different things. You can approach strangers in a good way and in a bad way. If I was to approach a girl in a supermarket I would do in a way that she wouldn't feel uncomfortable (ex. by keeping a certain distance). In fact, I believe some people would be impressed by the boldness of being able to approach in such place but of course some people might feel it awkward. You can never know unless you try!
If you're way shorter than them, you should make sure you're sitting. ;) I can feel you about the behavior of Finnish dudes. Some of them are simply bad of showing feelings. Of course you can run into some players too. That's why I'd spend a few dates first and if there's red flags (like the ones you described) then it seems they're simply not worth it.
I agree. I was trying to joke about the Finnish shiness and personal space. And that sitting comment was funny. 😄 Oh and I noticed you tend to explain stuff more for people who wanna date chicks, but it'd be interesting as well to hear what a guy think. For example you were explaining how to get or how not to get too physical with chicks. Also I think you promote the videos with ladies a bit more than the one(s) with guys. Otherwise it's all good stuff.
That's probably cos I'm into girls myself, but we could do a whole video about dating Finnish guys. :P
Fair enough. ☺

Hello
where my americans at
I'm interested in the Indigenous people who might have connections with Eskimo or Native American tribes. Also, I hate to point out a common stereotype but most nordic people like scandinavian have long pointy noses while most fins I notice have flat almost asian like flaring nose. and some (like even in Ireland) have single fold eyes like Asians have, though the fold is reverse than asians. Epicanthal eyes. asians fold near the tear duct and europeans who have it fold on the other side. Narrator/OP You have a flat nose like Asians, Pacific Islanders and Black people. Is it from the Indigenous you think?
The researches and studies tell Finns have got percentually most high nose bridges in The world. I think you are better to check up your eyesight.
Wrong. Finns have normally straight and narrow noses. A common thing is also, that Finns have similar eyes with other western European countries. Finns look similar with other Nordic ppl. The only difference is that Finland has got more ppl with blue eyes and blond hair. Also they are tall.
Aleksi, you forgot one main thing. Be a Chad 😆.
I have a friend in Norway, middle Eastern origin , short, chubby is intelligent, has a great personality outgoing and humorous. His result, never had a girlfriend here in Norway and a very poor dating life.
Don't know about Finland, I suspect it's the same as in Norway which means looks are 90% these days.
If you're ugly you can't get girls anywhere unless you are rich. A few ugly dudes get lucky.
So it's my fault why he leave me. Because I'm so over acting 😂
Hah. Are you actually single Aleksi? 😇
Yep 🤣
😍

You're sexy if I am not too bold😘
Does asian have a chance? Hehehehe
Everyone has a chance!
Your confusing. I think Fins are fickle women, even the men. On one hand you say you stand at the bus station at distance because you like space, so, how am I to walk up and talk if you want space? WTF?? On a side note, who is the girl in the thumbnail, does she like older guys??
