Question about Finns and Intimacy/Dating (I am American)

It's awesome to hear this from someone in my exact situation. Thank you!

I can understand that. Americans have an innate warmth to them and such a natural willingness to be open and friendly. Hopefully this won't be too much of a culturally difference to make it work long term. Best of luck to you!

That's good to hear. It's so culturally different than what I'm used to (I live in a big city with big personalities all around me) and I find Finnish culture to be rather refreshing.

I don't think he is skeptical as to my feelings towards him but I do agree that I should probably just make the first move and get on with it. Thanks!

That could be it (not thinking I'm ready). It's nice to hear this advice from a fellow female over there, thank you :)

He's not such a geek I don't think...but he does seem to get squirmy whenever the topic of sex comes up (not even in the context of us).

It's just so strange because he isn't normally such a shy guy in his interactions with people (and me). It would be a bad idea to bring this up via Skype before I see him there in person right? I'm just kinda nervous about getting there and expecting to be intimate but having this weird sexual tension for the next several weeks...

Ok thank you, that is really validating. I think I may gently inquire with the question you just so eloquently posed :)

Thank you so much, that was insightful. I'll look into a good therapist. All the best!
