I know how to spot a gold digger from someone genuinely interested in me, and how to know when a woman has genuine respect and love for me, so it's not that easy for those foreign women after a GC and a wallet to fleece to get me .

I am skeptical whether that's the whole story. I don't doubt that Filipina women are loving and respectful, but I don't see why they wouldn't just marry another Filipino and stay near their families unless they wanted to leave. You don't hear about American men going to Europe and being surrounded by attentive, flattering Swedes or Finns, or French or Italian women.

Sorry to burst your bubble , and trust me I am not an american, I am a "foreign" women (I just happen to come from a wealthy family back home).

No member of my family has married an american. We immigrated thru our education. But a lot of friends that were really poor did it.

Wealthy people do not just leave their lifes, families, customs for men that they probably meet in a visit or the internet. The main incentive to do this for a female is money.

I have known more successful, well-adjusted, and savvy immigrants than the ones that try to leach off Americans.

BTW, not all American women are bitter!! HEYY!!!
I know not all of them are, just some of the one's here. Most American women I have come across look at me and assume that I am some call center working guy taking over their job, I shall tell them to go find how many people they could find working on a field like "spintronics" and watch their jaws drop, and the tinge of embarrassment on their faces when they realize that I am much smarter than what they could ever be. LOL.

Maybe your arrogance is the reason you are alone and has nothing to do with nacionalities.

Even if you are smarter, an statement like this comes accross as conceited and arrogant

Here's your opening statement this morning, by the way.

So yes, you are talking about a whole bunch of people you don't know, and you have called us bitter a few times. I for one am not bitter, and there's nothing for me to be bitter about.

EPIC FAIL!!!

Most of my family is from a VERY third world country and all of them are well educated in their old country AND America. Two of my cousins own busy restaurants and my aunt and uncle own a preschool in one of the most expensive suburbs in the country and they have only lived in the states for two years AND speak perfect english.

My own mother came to this country with nothing except some college experience back in her country studying engineering. She studied English at Harvard University. She worked as a seamstress, a baby sitter, a maid, a bank teller, and was a great mother to me.

She now is at the top of her field in accounting and does quite well for herself. Also her english vocabulary and grammer is far more advanced than more than half of the Americans I know.

And for that the woman doesn't have to be from a poor country. Even women in rich western countries go after a man's money. Some do it in a crude way (goldiggers) and others do it in a more "acceptable"
way (your average woman). Reason why woman look for men above their level.

Is this wrong/right? Depends on how you see it.

I am only arrogant to those that heap stereotypes on me out of their ignorance, stop doing that, and I will be very friendly and respectful, I have no qualms in respecting people, I don't believe in doing that to people who are insulting and disrespectful.

It's not exactly money per se. It's supposedly better life. Also, rumor has it abroad that Americans make good husbands.
