| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/23/2005 9:03:05 PM | | Speaking from experience, don't plan to marry a foreign woman. They will be the greatest actress is the world, you think it's 100%, true and forever. They will try to get a green card. If they don't get that, they're Gandi. If they do and you being them to your country, they'll get settled in with a green card and THEN dump you. Trust me. It happened to me. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/23/2005 9:12:37 PM | All women are foreign, .......to men in other countries.
Canadian men shouldn't marry American women? Spanish men should avoid Italian girls?
Generalizations are a poor choice to base decisions on, ...... so is, "it happened to" somebody.
False logic, ..... "post hoc ergo propter hoc". | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/23/2005 10:31:46 PM | | When I rejected (out of disbelief) a young, beautiful African girls desire to marry me, she then offered me money to marry her so she could get her green card. Second time this has happened to me. The first time was a Filipina. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/23/2005 10:31:53 PM | | There is a lot of truth to this statement. Yes it is a generalization, but generalizations are how we develope defense mechanisms that help guide our lives. No, all foreign women or men are not after a lifestyle, but there are a lot that are. What he is saying is be careful. That's how I take it. Good advice I'd say, but take it with a grain of salt like everything else. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/23/2005 10:40:41 PM | | Sure, this is all pretty common knowledge. I know a few guys it has happened to also. The thing I always wonder is why are they doing that? Is life in their country that bad? OR are they just simply mean people? I'm sure they each have their own story...judge them with caution. But....about that coin having 2 sides. Yep it's true. I talked to a guy in Western Europe daily for 5-6 months. I always told him (and my profile also states it) that I am ONLY looking for friends. Well....this egotistical screwball actually got it in his silly little head that I would marry him and move to his country (a nice, popular Euro. country). He ASSUMED that I would be honored and thrilled at the chance to move to his country! Hahaha...dude I have my own nice country, career, home and life! Anyway all I can figure is that he said the Eastern European women would do anythign to move to his country so he assumed I would too. Wrong. A 1 week vacation, possibly, eventually..but sell everythign, quit my job and move there...heck no! | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 6:34:44 AM | Hey there - depends on where they are from...if you suspect a female of this, check out her countries status and economy. Australia is a great country...we have on eof the best economies...and an awesome sunny lifestyle...but I DO like and am interested in men from other countries...why? intelligence and thought provoking factor..nothing more, nothing less... a possible scenario...if I were to fall for a a foreign cutey my primary thought would be tohave him fall in love with Oz [as well as with me]....and live here
Sometimes its not all about the green card fellas... however just use your common sense and make sure you talk to the lady a lot.....in any foreign situation at one stage you have to consider one has to move one way or the other...like any relationship...make sure it goes serious for the right reason...you could fall for the gal in the next state who doesnt love you for the right reasons.....

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 12:43:45 PM | | late-- why, you,you, you, you- - adorable person. How dare you disagree with me? I've been there and you haven't. It's just a lousy generalization to beware for men. I know some men have happily married another country-woman, and that's fine and I'm happy for them. But it fails for a lot of guys because the girls are mercenary and have mixed motives. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 12:51:09 PM | | crystalise, I was referring to places like Asia, Russia, etc., third-world countries. Australia is not on my list of danger zones, and I think you have a great country and I think it would be fine to meet a girl in Australia. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 1:03:25 PM | | daisie, it just happened. I lived abroad and was not expecting to meet a woman because it wasn't happening. One day she walked through the door of my flat and I fell out. It was all over. I believe she really did love me, but for reasons that could not be overcome--she backed out. After 3 years of being engaged. You asked why guys would want a foreign woman. One reason is like the above--it happened. The other reason is that foreign women are more family-oriented and traditional. Unfortunately, once they get to US they acquire the mindset of the US woman. | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 3:25:22 PM | to the originator of this thread: Dude, you took my comments much too personally!!! I was just sharing experiences on the same topic, which is kind of what these threads are for. I'm not a therapist, so I don't get too much into other people's personal business....since they almost always twist things all around. It's impossible to know the truth without getting various points of veiw from various witnesses to your situation. Besides, I don't care too much about other people's dumb problems (and yes...this is a classic DUMB problem!) Trust me, I was not specifically commenting on your situation. I don't recall asking why some guys want foreign women, but since you brought it up here's my most excellent opinion: These guys are such losers they can't find a local woman who would waste her time with him....so...he is forced to shop abroad. It's sad, but true. Family values...give that old tired argument a rest. That's so cliche and meaningless, at least be honest with yourself and with us. And...if specifically "American"women are so undesireable why would this forgeign guy be falling all over himself to get me to marry him and move to his country? I think it's obvious, just the other side of the same coin. He's a foreign loser and probably cannot get a woman in his own country because of his various problems....so he shops abroad. It happens all around the world....ain't nothing new.
Now I will be honest with you, I am also "attracted" to a lot of foreign men rather than American men. When you put them side by side The American seems dull, predictable, monotonous, routine, tiring, and he often cheats on his wife so he has little family values, he's also probably chubby and bald-headed!. Just overall boring....in comparison to a sexy, young, tall handsome foreign guy with beautiful deep dark eyes and thick, long dark hair...and of course an accent, oh yeah, definitely a sexy accent . Differences in cultures are intriguing and interesting...but that tall, dark, handsome hardbody with the accent. Oh....yeah!! I'm very attracted to that. But.....I'm NOT and IDIOT!! I would never choose a foreign guy over an AMerican guy based on such superficial (yet beautifully sexy aspects). I am intelligent enough to look deeper into everyone's personality and character, regardless of what country they are from, before I get so worked up over him that I have to resort to starting a POF thread to take out my frustrations! I have a very good idea that is precisely your error. You are so superficial you fall for the bookcover instead of reading and getting to know the book.
Personally I would LOVE to talk to her and hear her side of this story! I bet it's very interesting... | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 3:34:45 PM | | To the thread originator: My bad, I guess I sort of did wonder why foreigners look to other countries for mates. Hey, but after reading you again and seeing that you did have the advantage of actually knowing her IN PERSON for 3 years....I think it might all be very simple. She got to know you and decided she didn't want you. Hmmm? That happens every day in every country. Gotta question for you though... what does Gandi have to do with any of this? | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 4:17:47 PM | Pretty self serving comment daisie 'These guys are such losers they can't find a local woman who would waste her time with him....so...he is forced to shop abroad' ...that categorizes men who are interested in "foreign" ...may I assume just about anyone who is not a w.a.s.p. ?
I have a close friend who is Filipino.. Visyan actually... known her for 8 years.
She speaks 5 languages fluently, albeit with an accent.. She has a post grad degree in health sciences, owns her own home and car outright, has a $60grand a year job, and is active in the arts and community.
I consider her quite a catch... and far be it for you to suggest that I or any other guy who might be interested in dating a "foreign born" women to be a "loser".
I think not... | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 4:36:13 PM | | Oh no, no...you assume wrong!! I don't mean anything to do with a w.a.s.p. in fact that never entered my mind. You are completely misunderstanding me. I mean that a person who categorizes all "American" women as undesireable (or whatever his exact words were) has got a problem. Generally when anyone disregards an entire group of people it means there is a problem...and it is very often with that particular individual. Hence my conclusion they must be "losers". I still stick by that observation. I mean that every local person who gets to know these guys in person must see something(s) undesireable...and these guys cannot find a local woman who would have anything to do with him, certainly not date him. I don't really know how you got the idea that I am saying foreign people are under-acheivers. I never said that. I absolutely do not believe that. It's all an individual thing, country aside. My comment was stating that people who are forced to shop abroad are losers....not that the people abroad are losers!! (The shoppers, not the shopees) Jeeze, give me a break. I know a lot of foreigners who are more accomplished than your friend you mentioned...and more accomplished than me too. Please read my posting more carefully...there were a number of comments I made that would have given you a clue that your assumption was erroneous. I think so..... | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 4:52:11 PM | I'm curious how she stole $6000. Are you saying that you gave her $6000? That KILLS me!!! I don't know your situation, but I do know a several other guys who sent thousands of $$$ to women from online. My god man.....where's your barin????? You probably wouldn't give a stranger standing outside your local gas station $20, but you give a stranger online $6000?! Sorry....I don't mean you personally, since I don't know your case, but this comment is directed to all the guys who give $$ to women from online. Hahaha...I really hate to say that anyone "deserves" that, but man....you guys come within a micrometer of deserving it. Whenever your penis starts doing the thinking for you....you have to take a cold shower and snap back into reality!! | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 5:04:05 PM | | Daisy. So if you choose to go overseas to find love you are a loser? | |

| Beware of Foreign Women Posted: 6/24/2005 5:07:03 PM | Meekob is right. I am a foriegn woman myself. I got to the US through legal avenue (not by marrying). But let me tell you that foreigners will come here anyway they can, even through violence. The percentage of foreigners who marry US citizens and really love them is about 1%. Do you really think you are so wonderful and lucky that you will fall into that 1%?
Your ideas are so nice but you are very naiive.
Wise up people. | |
