I will really appreciate if you will participate in the discussion and will share your experience and opinion

2
There are those 5 scariest words in the human history that one could use

Where

is

this

relationship

going

3
the girl is serious if she takes you out with her to try on clothes.

she sees you as marriage material if she asks, "does my bum look big in this?"

of course the progression depends entirely on your next few words.....

4
Does this come before or after "I really like you as a friend, but..." ?

Not quite true... she might just be needing a "male" opinion before she goes off on a hot date

If shes serious she would want to buy something and then surprise you "Do you like my new dress?"

She would rather say "Do you like my bum?"

The kind of stuff you mentioned usually happens when you are already in a relationship... no?

IMHO from begining of times up until today the women who have true interest in you will make you feel that way or give you any tangible sign so that you know. Other than that these are just hidden ulterior motives. It is valid here and practically anywher else in this world.

Do you have particular questions? In general dating here is the same as anywhere ...it's based on attraction which isn't always a completely concious choice.

What is therefore attractive to Swiss ladies vs. other nationalities is another discussion entirely. Generally a lady will usually let you know if she wants to escalate (or not).

What are your dating goals and expectations? Do you come from a culture with specific courting rituals that you're worried may not go down too well in the Emmental?

duh. before, of course. Probably not the answer the person asking the question was expecting but oh well, that's life.

Better than for this freind of mine, lived with a guy for 5 years, everything nice and all, so one day she finally mentioned, that they are not getting any younger and well, should really discuss about marriage and kids and so on...

and the guy looked totally surprised and told her that "Well honey, you are a nice girl and all, but this is not a serious relationship. I definitely haven't looked at you as the mother of my children, we're just having fun.."

So yes, it's better to specify.

10
So when she asks me

I'm OK to say "No, it just makes the rest of your body look small..." ?

I'll get me coat...

The right answer to the question: "Does that dress make me look fat?"

is

"No, of course not, honey.

All those cookies and chocolate you are eating, this is what makes you look fat"

12
Such men are a disgrace!!

Why do they do that?

13

Why do dogs lick their balls?

14

Cause they can.

15
Haha... that was a pretty quick EDIT!

16
What do you mean by "serious"?

Serious as in she wants to be your wife after a period of dating/living together?

Or serious as in you've met her a few times, had a few drinks and talked about whatever it is you two have in common?

For the first one, I guess she might start talking about babies, marriage, a house for the two of you and a labrador to go with it

And for the second one, she might actually snog you more than once a day, bring you over to her place and ask you to meet her friends.

But what do I know, men and women alike are such a unforeseeable bunch. Never really know what goes on inside the head of one. At one time it might seem like she wants to be steady, and then she goes LJBF on you

17
No need for being bitter... some women do equally wrong things.

18
And it's not only men who do this... But I heard some statistics mentioning how men tend to accept even tedious or non-serious relationships more readily than women, who will be more likely to break them up if things begin to get into a rut of boredom and arguments.

19
Hahaha... this being "serious" business is very Tricky indeed!

Sometimes they just ask/expect you to be serious, just so that you dont take them as cheap trash... whereas they have NO intention of settling down with you whatsoever!

And, of course, the classic "I won't mind, as long as you tell me the truth..."
