This blog will serve as a chronicle of the travails of my dating life. Specifically, it will concentrate on my experience attempting to meet foreign women through various channels.
Now “why foreign women” you might say? I guess the main reason is because I’m unhappy with what’s currently being offered to me by the modern American woman. Now this doesn’t mean I’m one of those cranks who wants his woman barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen… but I don’t want a woman who is all take and no give. And that is exactly the type of women that America is producing these days.
And to be honest, I’m looking for a woman who is more interested in starting a family than she is in starting fights at clubs (you know who you are, girls!). I want a woman who’s moral, who actually enjoys pleasing her man (concept!) and who realizes that material things are not the be all and end all of life.
I have money, I’m relatively fit (not fat like the typical stereotype of American men going “offshore” to find a woman) and definitely good-looking (not a 10, but not a grenade either. Solid 7!). I’m probably smarter than the average bear, am a huge reader and music-lover and like to party and go out. I’m naturally shy, but I force myself to be social and I’m very good at it. People think I’m funny (cause I am!) and like to be around me. I bring excitement and laughter to any gathering!
All that said, I’ve found it difficult to find a girl that meets my standards. First off, I have *extremely* high physical standards. I know exactly what I want (skinny, dark hair/eyes/skin) and what I don’t want (white, overweight, blonde!). I am this way because I was married once and I wasn’t fundamentally attracted to the girl I married. Thus, over time, I lost my attraction to her and this contributed to the dissolution of the marriage. Totally fair on her part that she went out looking for the type of adoration I just couldn’t provide her.
I may make myself sound like a monster, but really I’m not. I’m just a typical guy who is visually-attuned and overconcerned about a woman’s physical appearance (in other words, a feminist’s worst nightmare!). I know it’s shallow, I freely admit that, but this is how I am, how I’ve always been and I don’t see it changing anytime soon.
So my standards of beauty are very high and, I have to say, I’m just not finding a lot of candidates here in the States to wet my whistle. That’s why I figured it might be worth a shot to expand the pool of possible recruits. And it was natural to look toward the Phillipines, as the women, physically-speaking, are more in line with my tastes. There’s also the advantage that English is taught there as a standard part of education, so communication would be easier with a potential mate.
I’ll hold off on disclosing the website I’m using, as I don’t want to implicate them in any scams that various girls on there might try to attempt. I’ll also hold off on naming the guilty, as there’s always the possibility that the language barrier contributed to a gross misunderstanding. I’m asking these girls to communicate with me in their 2nd or 3rd language. One has to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Will I find the love that I’m looking for? I would speculate that the odds are low, but the attempt, at least, should be fun. And we’re off!
