Intercultural romantic relationships are becoming recently more of a concern in a field of intercultural psychology and intercultural communication. Intensification in cultural exchange allows culturally diverse individuals to meet, interact and engage in a relationship much more easily than it was in a past, when a world was not yet globalized like its is nowadays. Due to the more intensive communication between the different countries and its cultures, there is no surprise that intercultural relationship appears to be relevant topic for discussion and new area for a research. The more cultures collide, the more they influence each other.

Partners of different cultures often create a new culture as a results of their mutual influences and also influences of the environment. This book focuses on the cultural adaptation of partners
