and being an expat in a foreign country, dosen’t make dating any easier.
As someone from central/eastern Europe, I have to disagree. Many of my female friends cite this as a specifically attractive quality in person.

I didn’t expect anything else. I think people who post these comments also have nothing against people writing ‘no blacks/asians’ in their Tinder bios.
How do they know that you’re eastern European? How do you know this is based purely on where you’re from and no other reason?
If you’ve tried dating as a guy from Eastern Europe in the West, you would very quickly learn that simply your geographical roots make you undesirable. Me and my friends had interactions with women that went fine, until either of us mentioned where we’re from. I mentioned it in the previous comment, but when my friend was out in a bar and chatting up some girl, as soon as she found out he’s from Poland she pretty much immediately got up and left. I had similar experiences myself, everything can be going fine, and as soon as you mentioned where you’re from you simply feel the mood drop and change.
Also, when it comes to women it’s the opposite - the stereotype is that Polish women are more traditional, humble, and feminine, so dudes from Western countries flaunt to them. All my female friends who were abroad had zero problems with dating, and in their case being Polish has actually benefited them on the dating market.
Man, as a Polish dude who used to live abroad in the West, I feel you. It was pretty clear we’re the Mexicans of Europe. Everyone looks down on us, more than once I was met with a stereotype that Polish men are only violent alcoholics, who work low-paying jobs, beat their wives, and are overall just low-class immigrants. People were often very surprised I spoke almost perfect English, however, even when I was talking with a girl and everything was going right, I could see the disappointment in their faces when I mentioned I’m from Poland. My friend, who is also a Pole, was chatting with a girl at a bar, everything was going smooth, until he mentioned he’s from Poland, at which point she literally just got up and left.
Lol nope, I saw quite a few tinder profiles specifically telling man of my nationality not to swipe right
