Ecuadorian women: Easy-going, Marriage-minded, and Caring

Even less known the Ecuadorian women are to international daters – while the information found online is quite contradictory. So why do such opposite opinions make it difficult to get an idea of what an Ecuadorian woman is like? There are different factors contributing to this – some may be obvious, some more tricky.

Why Ecuadorian Women Are So Popular?

Women from Ecuador are actually not as popular as those from the neighboring Colombia and Peru – considering that both of these countries have more tourist areas and attractions. Women of Ecuador are also less concerned about their looks than other Latinas. So they are not obsessed with fashion, and are most likely to wear T-shirts, sneakers and jeans on any day or occasion. This means that Ecuador ladies don’t get all dressed up just to go and buy something at the nearby store, and the streets of the country don’t look like catwalks. Moreover, this actually makes the country a great place to meet Ecuadorian girls who are down-to earth, respectful to others, and not self-obsessed. However, the most beautiful girls in Ecuador can be arrogant and flakey, as they are spoiled and feel privileged due to being popular and sought-after. These Ecuador beauty icons are mostly white, but some are chocolate-skinned and gorgeous as well. In fact, white skin and Caucasian features are worshipped by men and women alike in this country. As for the popularity of Ecuadorian girls, it mostly concerns those in the capital and other big cities of the country, and is a twofold issue. On the one hand, it makes them seem just as attractive as other Latinas, only harder to get and more likely to play hot-cold games. On the other hand, it doesn’t do any good to the reputation of Ecuador women in general, causing debates between foreign men. Some label them as ‘easy’, ‘gringo chasers’ and ‘gold-diggers’. Some claim that Ecuador girls are too traditional and conservative, reserved or shy, and plain-looking. The truth is somewhere in between, and definitely in the eye of the beholder. But many men just happen to be looking for beautiful Ecuadorian women in the wrong places, or with incongruent expectations. This basically means the girls you meet in the nightclubs are not relationship material, and if you are looking for a short fling, don’t expect to just roam the streets in Ecuador and find plenty of options. Online dating platforms have become more effective alternatives that help avoid such situations. You can find girls who are genuinely interested in dating a foreigner, as well as Ecuador women for marriage. Keep in mind that when some guys pick up Ecuadorian girls in bars and judge all the women in the country by their behavior, this is only their limited experience.

Why Are Ecuadorian Mail Order Brides Looking For A Foreign Husband?

The most popular reasons that make Ecuadorian women want to date foreigners are the following:

1. The vibe. The way Western men talk, dress, and behave makes Ecuadorian brides admire them a lot. They love the style, the manner of speaking, and the character of foreigners as they are usually less loud and hot-tempered as local men. Therefore, if you would like to have a wife who loves everything about you, an Ecuadorian bride is a perfect match;
2. The common values. Since the majority of Ecuadorian girls are religious, they look for foreign Catholic men to share their life with all the joy and sorrow. They appreciate family ties a lot, they believe in God, and they are good mothers and wives. What else can you wish for in a woman?
3. Their attitude towards women. Ecuadorian brides adore the way Western men treat their girlfriends and wish for the same attitude to themselves. They dream about a caring, reliable, and responsible partner who will protect them from evil. If it’s about you, don’t hesitate to start dating an Ecuadorian.

What are Ecuadorian Brides Like?

Their skin color may vary from fair to very dark, but is usually brown. Most Ecuadorian women have the classic hourglass body shape that is the golden standard of beauty in many countries. If you admire the typical curvy Latinas, you are going to appreciate the choice of attractive Ecuador ladies, as well as the temperament of the Ecuador brides being different from other Latinas. They are kind, thoughtful, caring, supportive and devoted, and as Ecuador is a family oriented culture, they put their family relationships first. Girls from Ecuador are good at cooking, and they learn all the skills needed to manage the household work at an early age, helping in the kitchen, tidying the house and caring for siblings. In Ecuador, food is always an important part of family get-togethers and social gatherings, including the traditional big Sunday family meals and colorful food festivals. Ecuadorian women are not demanding, bossy or obsessed with money goals and selfish ambitions. They don’t have that career-minded and competitive mentality of many Western women who are trying to make more money or prove they can do better than men. Many girls from Ecuador are conservative and religious, with Catholic values being important in their traditional upbringing. Getting married is an essential part of it, along with starting a family quite early. Most Ecuadorian girls are very serious about their relationships and partners. It is also a cultural norm for them to become faithful, loving wives, but unfortunately, the same standards don’t hold true for men. It would be only natural for Ecuador wives or any other women who take marital fidelity seriously to envision the same faithfulness and respect in return. But here’s the paradox: in a culture that places so much value on the family, it is common for married men to have affairs without even seeing anything wrong with it. This infidelity that passes from generation to generation makes many girls desperate about marrying local men, because they could see their mothers end the marriage in divorce, or suffering if they chose to put up with it. Bottom line: as Ecuadorian men are not reliable, regardless of their age or status, they are not relationship material, and they don’t make good husbands. That’s why in Ecuador, girls are generally interested in foreigners (not because of money or citizenship of other countries), and some Ecuadorian women even idealize them, associating foreign men with trust, financial security and stability in marriage. In a nutshell, Ecuadorian women are happy in the role of loving wives and mothers, provided that their partners also take their role as a husband, provider, and father seriously.

Where You Can Meet Ecuadorian Brides?

If you are planning to visit Ecuador, you can meet some friendly, polite and well-mannered girls in the family run restaurants, cafes or shops, – it is common for young people to help out with the family business. You can meet Ecuadorian women in different public places or at cultural and social gatherings. But this kind of communication is rather complicated and takes some time before such girls open up to you. So rather than hoping that this or Tinder would work, it is better to leave the most ‘difficult’ part of communication online, especially if you don’t speak any Spanish (many online dating platforms have translation services). This way, you can get some dates before arriving in Ecuador, and see which girls are interested mostly in your money as compared to those who are looking for lasting relationships.

How to find a Reliable Ecuadorian Dating Website?

Just like women from any country you may be interested in, dating websites shouldn’t be chosen or judged by their looks. A reliable Ecuador dating site should be a well-established service with a solid reputation and positive customer feedback, so consider choosing by reviews that have been written by users, and don’t skip the terms and conditions part. These usually state the safety measures and technologies used to protect your personal data. Last but not least, compare the monthly subscription fees between different dating websites and the features these include. If you can get a glimpse of the features for free, this can help you see if you are comfortable with the way they work. Meeting Ecuador singles is easy today, and very convenient with online dating services and message translation options.

3 Tips on Dating an Ecuadorian Girl

1. Ecuadorian women tend to value family relationships, so they are less willing to move to another country. Many of them seem to be content where they are and with what they have, and they don’t push high expectations on you.
2. Instead of having the ‘rush-rush’ kind of lifestyle many Westerners are used to, Ecuadorians have the so-called ‘manana’ attitude – things get done when they get done, and family always comes first.
3. If you ever thought the word ‘macho’ had a positive meaning, forget it. In Ecuador, it turns into machismo, a disrespectful attitude to women that is displayed mostly through verbal abuse, intimidation and violence. This is exactly what makes Ecuadorian women turn away from the locals and seek any foreign guys who show more respect towards ladies; and this is exactly why being a gentleman is your best bet.
