Dating a Finnish woman has the potential to change your life! It may be the starting point of a happy adventure.

I’m excited to tell you that a relationship with a Finnish lady is golden! That’s because Finnish women are loving, fun to be with and down-to-earth.

Here’s what I’m going to cover in this post!

How to Get Started with Dating a Finnish Woman

First things first, I do hope you are planning to date only one Finnish woman. Finnish people, especially Finnish women, don’t understand the concept of dating several people at the same time.

When she finds out that you are having a carousel of women, she will delete your contact details immediately from her phone. That being said, let’s continue.

So, how to approach a Finnish woman? Honestly, there is no wrong way. Whether you find her on the internet, social media or local bar, just remember to let your personality shine through.

Be honest and be real. Finns don’t care for any fluff.

What’s it Like Dating Finnish Women

In general, Finnish women aren’t into playing games. If your sweetheart is hard to read, that’s because she doesn’t want to get her heart broken not because she is playing hard to get.

Finnish women are outspoken in practical matters. However, sometimes Finnish women have difficulties saying how they feel. In Finnish culture, that kind of communication has a much smaller role than in many other countries.

There’s an old Finnish saying: “Kell’ onni on, se onnen kätkeköön.” A rough translation would be: “If you are happy, hide it within yourself.”

Basically, this means that happiness is not something you should boast with or show off. I know it sounds totally weird but this is true to some extent also in modern Finnish society.

All in all, I’d say the most important thing to know are the cultural norms your Finnish woman has been raised in.

When you are starting to get to know each other, ask about them! If you don’t share common values about being in a relationship, what’s the point of dating?

Here are some things to consider:

In a Finn-Finn relationship, it is super normal that both spouses do housework. Finnish men cook, clean and do laundry just like Finnish ladies.
In Finland, it’s not a problem if the woman makes more money than the guy.
In a relationship, many Finnish women show their love by doing.
If there are kids, a Finnish woman appreciates it if her spouse takes time off from work to be with the baby. There’s also a compensation system in Finland to do this.

Ten Mistakes to Avoid When Dating a Finnish Woman

Since I’m talking about Finnish women, and I haven’t been in a relationship with any besides myself, it made total sense to do a helpful video about this topic with a Finnish guy!

So, without further ado, here is Aleksi, a Finnish vlogger.

When it comes to YouTube, he is an incredibly awesome and hilarious source of all things Finnish, you can subscribe to Aleksi’s videos here.

Six Quick Tips When You are Starting a Relationship with a Finnish Woman

Here are the best quick tips when you are starting a relationship with a Finnish woman.

Accept long silent pauses in your interaction. It’s okay to be quiet together! You don’t need to talk to avoid silence.
Remember to provide a feeling of equality to the relationship. Finland is the country of gender equality.
Don’t ever try to take a picture of her unless she is in the mood of being photographed. How to spot that right mental state, you may ask? When she is taking selfies, for example.
Romantic gestures work well. Though this is universal for any woman, I guess.
Don’t play games.
A stereotype is no real person. Each Finnish woman is unique and so are you!

The One Thing You Should Know when Being in a Relationship with a Finnish woman

Okay, so this last point is for those of you who are already in a relationship with a Finnish woman. This tip is super useful!

What should you do, when you get the infamous “Do I look fat in this dress/these jeans etc.?”

This question always comes when you are just about to go somewhere together. You don’t want to ruin your evening! So, your answer must start immediately and without any hesitation.

First, step into the situation with a sentence of distraction: “Honey, I forgot to say earlier that your hair looks lovely like that… / I am so looking forward to our night out; it’s been such a long time…”

Practice your body language and tone of voice to sound genuine (which you are of course). In many cases, the discussion will flow to other topics.

If not, the right answer to the original question is no and always no. Make several sentences of reassuring answers all pointing to no. Your sweetie is feeling insecure, why to enforce that feeling?

Let’s consider a situation in which you were silent, hesitated or answered “Yes. / Please don’t ask me that. / [insert any dumb phrase here]”. Wrong move, buddy.

The odds are that you will have a miserable night and your sweetheart will mope.

If there is some ‘body improvement’ to be made, you guys have plenty of time to talk about healthy eating and exercise some other time and make it a team effort. Simple, right?

Long Distance Dating

Even if you are not together physically for a portion of your relationship, most of these tips will still apply to dating a Finnish woman. Long distance relationships are hard, and often need a tiny spark to keep it alive.

My friend Jasmin has created incredible virtual date night packages to help couples in long distant relationships. I have been in a long distant relationship in the past and a solution like this would have worked wonders for us.

Keep in mind that when you suggest this to your Finnish partner that, culturally, they may not be accustomed to a scheduled or creative date. Encourage them to keep an open mind and enjoy a new type of romance during your virtual date night.

Finland Dating Culture: From A to L

Anticipation. If you haven’t already googled, stalked on Instagram or spied on Facebook, cancel the date and let a Finn out of his/her misery. You are not that into us. It is not nice to play with food. Bridezilla. There is a 90% chance you will get a bridezilla if you plan to marry a Finnish woman. Unfortunately, there is no way of pointing out the 10% which are not before you kneel down. There is a 100% chance you will be a bridezilla if you marry a Finnish man. Cuddles. There are no restrictions on PDA in Finland. That’s most likely because they are so rare. We show very little physical (and verbal) proofs of our love. However, we are still totally smitten with you! Darkness. We are a bit somber. Best way to check the level of our darkness is to ask about our music taste. If the reply includes bands like Stratovarius, Sonata Arctica, and Nightwish, prepare for a Finnish metal heart. Effective dating. Finns tend to date only one person at a time. If you are dating several people and keeping your options open, please don’t let us know and keep it super casual with us. Or even better, just don’t do that at all to a Finn. Flirt. How to flirt with a Finn? It’s really simple. Smile and make eye contact. Proceed to asking her/his name. That’s it! Gig or movie. A good place for the first date with a Finn. Reason for that in the letter M (as in Muteness). House. The ultimate love testimony of a Finn is when he/she starts building a house for his/her family. You can also count any massive renovation as a love testimony. Unfortunately, this also leads to the ultimate amount of fights. Inferno. Dating inferno for a Finn is when some old relatives ask relationship status in front of a large group of people. Jester. See Jester on a second date if the first date was not downright awful. Talkative Finns (rare but they exist) might use jokes to hide insecurity. You can find a prince behind this mask. Kulta. The most common way to say Dear in Finnish. We are quite creative with nicknames so your sweetheart can come up with a much more personal name for you. Late. Finns are very clock-aware. If we are running late more than 5 minutes late, we let the other person know. Not whatsupping sorry and new time slot for arrival is rude!

Okay, let’s dive into the other half of alphabets!

Finland Dating Culture: From M to Z

Muteness. We Finns are at no point in our lives taught to small talk! Check this post for details. If a Finn is quiet, that doesn’t mean anything negative. Quite the opposite, most likely he/she is comfortable with you. Try wine, tequila or absinthe, if the situation is desperate.

Nibbling. It is a very positive sign. It means that a Finn is utterly relaxed with you. Particularly we women just love to try out food on another person’s plate. Accept it or be ready to fight for your right to have all the food on your plate. If you have a Finnish man-nibbler, set clear rules to how much you want to eat. If you don’t, your food (especially candies) may disappear within seconds.

Oneway openness. What is funny is that Finns rarely ask you questions when they are getting to know you. On the other hand, if you ask us anything (no matter how difficult or straight the question it might be), you always get an honest answer without blinking an eye.

Politeness. This is kit mint to Finns as we have no please in our language. When you are normal, we think you are flirting with us. Personally, as a 16-year old au pair in the UK, I thought the whole town loved me because of those darlings and sweethearts at the end of the sentences.

Qwerty. Your Finn may be a nerd. That’s okay; we are cute and useful. Just make sure that computer games aren’t a passion because then they, for sure, spend a lot of time with Xbox, PlayStation or World of Warcraft. On the other hand, that’s me-time to you!

Road trip.Finland is a long country so we are used to distances and driving. Pack snacks, good music and take your sweetie up north or to the coastline. We will love it.

Soulmate. In case you were wondering: having a soulmate feels like riding a cotton candy unicorn, being a top-class brain surgeon and saving the world from all worries at the same time.

Tab. We can go 50/50, but you are not a gentleman if you are not paying.

Upset. With us women, it is so damn easy. You can read it from our face with a neon sign. With a Finnish guy, that poker face takes months to decipher.

Voice. If you are in a relationship or dating a Finn, you really need to hear his/her voice and preferably see the face too. This is the modern age! Sending messages is not a relationship.

Whatsupping. If she/he is regularly not answering your messages even though she/he has read them and replies later or not all of them, move on. I’m so sorry. Most likely, he/she isn’t that into you but doesn’t say it out loud, which is stupid and immature.

Ex – Girlfriends & Boyfriends. You can ask about them but don’t let them be the subject for too long. Usually, people briefly talk around these subjects on a first date (How long has your longest relationship been? How long have you been single?).

Young. You do not ask a woman’s age in Finland if you are a man. Never. Ever. Full stop.

Zone. We Finns have a need of circular personal space about 1-1,5 meter in radius. Step inside it unwanted and a Finn will step backward accordingly. This is nothing personal. It just takes time to make it to our comfort zone. When you’re in it, you stay there forever.

And it’s a wrap! That is Finland dating culture 101!

BONUS: Long Distance Dating Tips

Even if you are not together physically for a portion of your relationship, most of these characteristics will still apply to dating a Finn. Long distance relationships are hard, and often need a tiny spark to keep it alive.
