Let’s start by looking at the traditional values of Mexican women.

Traditional Values of Mexican Women

Mexicans are, for the most part, Christian and conservative.

We see this when we encounter their families. They are religious, know the role of men and women, and are close-knit. This makes them the ideal marriage partner for conservative and traditional-minded men who are looking for a marriage partner.

If you can keep these key points in mind, you will see these traits when you go out and converse with Mexican women. Let’s explore this in short detail.

Religious

Mexico doesn’t endorse religion. However, 80% of Mexicans identify as Roman Catholic. It is part of who they are and passed down the family line. You could even say that it is inseparable from their national culture.

If you ever visit Mexico, you will find Christian images and symbols throughout the country in their version. When you observe Mexicans conversing with each other, don’t be surprised to hear them saying God’s name here and there. It may not be common in the West, but Mexican religiosity is on another level.

Expect your date to likely be a Christian. There are norms of conduct that are expected of Mexican women. Though this might seem contrary to how you see today’s Mexican women dressed, inside she still abides by the rules and norms of Christianity and how relationships should properly unfold.

Gender Roles

In the West, there is a wide range of freedom in how men and women should live.

Men in the West can take on feminine traits or even take on the role of stay-at-home husbands. This means that he has no obligation to take leadership opportunities or be the breadwinner. It’s seen in the household and the workplace.

Women in the West can choose to act like men and there is no social obligation to stay at home and work full-time taking care of the children. They can even become the new “man of the house” and become breadwinners of the household.

Raising children becomes a part-time effort for both the husband and wife if the woman also has a career. This usually has consequences for child development if significant family members aren’t present most of the time.

This is not the case in Mexico.

For traditional-minded Mexicans, men are expected to take on leadership in their communities and their families. They are expected to be the breadwinners of the house. Women are expected to take care of the house and the children.

This structure ensures that the children are guided and attended to every hour of the day, the house is always livable, and the man makes the most of his earning potential.

Family-Centered

Families are important in Mexico.

They are so important that every member will do whatever it takes for the family to survive. Knowing about her family will be a part of getting to know her. Don’t be surprised if she’s also curious about your family.

If both of you see the potential for a long-term relationship or marriage, then one of the first things you’ll encounter is meeting her immediate and extended family.

The family is the one to ultimately decide if you are an acceptable match for their daughter. The father and mother are especially important because even if she wants to date or marry you, if it’s not accepted by her parents, then it will be difficult to see how both of you can move forward.

Women are guided by Marianismo which is derived from the Virgin Mary in Catholicism. Emulating that ideal is how women are expected to act. This is why women in Mexican families are submissive and docile in their role in the family whether they are daughters or wives.

Knowing the values of Mexican women, how would you go about winning the heart of one?

Essential Tips for Dating Mexican Women

Always be interested when you date a Mexican woman. This means having the right attitude for them to always be thinking about you.

When you approach them for the first time, stand up straight and walk over with confidence. Take it easy and smile when you introduce yourself. What’s important is that you carry yourself well in front of her.

When you converse with her, be interested in whatever she’s interested in. If you want to find out what her interests are, ask questions about her hometown, family, and anything you like in general.

For example, you might not know if she loves baseball, but ask her if she’s interested in baseball anyway. If she doesn’t know anything about it, your conversation might be about why you love baseball instead.

Make her the star of the show when she speaks.

Listen attentively and add to her topics whenever she carries on the conversation. If she loves dogs, talk about the breeds that you know of and are your favorite. Be supportive of her views if ever they conflict with yours. Act like someone in the service industry.

If ever you are on a date, be assertive but a gentleman all the same. Open doors, tell her she’s beautiful, and pay for the date. Mexican women also have adventurous hearts and would love to visit novel places, so surprise her with interesting dates like trekking or scuba diving.

Understanding the “Date to Marry” Concept

If you want a family, say it once you are both comfortable with each other.

A Mexican woman needs to know where you want the relationship to head next. Hesitation isn’t a sign of the confidence and leadership that they are looking for in a long-term partner. Be straightforward and date without reserving any thoughts you have about the relationship.

If you feel that she isn’t the one, it might hurt her, but, at least, she needs to know. If she is the one, say it in front of her with passion and conviction. Don’t be alarmed if she ever declares that she needs time to think about it. Give her space to think it over, but also remind her that you cannot wait forever.

If she agrees with your intentions, be sure to have a serious sit-down with her family and present yourself with class and confidence. Become the man that they would love to welcome into their family and show qualities needed of a life partner.
