According to this system...I'm technically a smoking hot guy so in essence I'm looking for my equal and it's the women trying to date out of their league. Got ya, sorry.

I would tell you what i really think about you but this place is PG 13 so i will keep that view to myself . It not about being rich its about wondering why someone 30 might still have no career and still be in school that can factor into some womens choices. This would be heightened if you live at home still, and don't work. However given your attitude i can imagine why most women end up having a problem with you. That rubs off when you meet people, and go on dates more than you think. Believe me if you are a nice guy even going to school you will eventually get someone. But in your case you have a **** poor attitude towards women which is why you will forever end up alone.

Maybe the OP and the other dude really don't want normal women from their own culture? If they're comfortable with the idea that they are essentially buying wives from a comparatively impoverished country, then that's what they're doing.

If they were already so successful and desirable or socially gifted, then they could have found the cream of the crop here. But they aren't and they didn't. Let them feel smug.

This^^.


Although, the OP sounds pretty silly, really....mostly likely a tall tale.

Women in America like to play the field with 20 different guys they can only do this because so many men want to be players. When they find out none of the men will commit then they whine there are no good men. American women are the most materialistic women in the world, it's a fact. So a guy like me that isn't loaded and doesn't have power/social status has a hard time meeting quality women. Even though I have a long list of qualities.
You sound bitter and make sweeping generalizations to boot. I have never personally known one woman who has played the field with 20 different guys.....where in the world does your "fact" come from? American women are the most materialistic? How do you know this? Who is telling you to date 300 pounders?

A person who comes off as bitter, makes assumptions, generalizes, is negative, argumentative, feels sorry for oneself.....well, I don't care what your other qualities are because the aforementioned would be enough to make a quality woman sprint in the other direction.

My MIL is Filipino.....she laughs about American guys cruising websites for Asian women, such as you are doing....because the women on those sites have a motive in most cases . There might be the rare occasion where it does work out but most times, the guy just gets played, duped, whatever you want to call it. Whether it is for money, a green card, whatever. Most of these women are sneaky and know exactly what they are doing....and it isn't about living happily ever after with you. Not all, but most where they meet in the way you are going about it.

I am a firm believer in that a person gets what they put out there. If your expectations are that women you desire want George Clooney types instead, you will meet women who meet your expectations.....and you will continue to be bitter, etc. Perhaps you get something out of being unhappy and must continue to derive reasons to remain in that state.

the problem is most of these women will use an american guy to get into this country and then leave once they get on their feet. I saw it working with eastern europeans in ocean city....dupe a silly guy into marrying them, then once they got their card divorce.

There are so many possible scenarios that can result from this and few will continue happily. Marriage is just one step. There's a whole lot of the life that follows.

Why should we care? It's interesting, but are we really helping these guys?

You are telling me the women are skinny in India... ? I saw just as many, if not more fat women in India than I do in USA on a regular basis..

People in USA are not fat due to genetically engineered food, they are fat because they are lazy and don't know how to set up a good diet, just like the fat people anywhere else in the world. Oh yeah, and they make excuses too.

Back to the OP, if these Asian women have such "good values", why would they be on a website to marry a white man?

Let me just clear up a few misconceptions here, the girl I met and took me around Bangkok IS NOT a hooker as so many of you tastefully put it. She has an office job , she moved to Bangkok from her home town in Northern Thailand and sends money to her family. Many of you have a warped and ignorant opinion of Thailand. I don't have time to set the record straight on everything you've got wrong I've got a busy day.
I think a lot of you gals are bothered that an American man has sworn you off due to your unrealistic expectations of your dates these days. A lot of posts have been negative and downright hostile at the prospect of someone finding happiness outside this culture, some even find it so preposterous as to suggest I made the whole thing up! My next vacation can't come soon enough!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure all the American 'gals' are crying in their cornflakes because you have chosen to pursue Asian women

Oh right. Yeah...that "bothers" me.

Hon, the fact that you think women are "bothered" by your absurd assertions...well, that's just one more absurdity. You have fun over there in lalaland...I mean Thailand..okay?
