Wife Hunting Abroad

25000 Thai wives in Britain? I heard their importing them all throughout Europe too.

They could all increase their SMV a bit and learn a few basic red flags for starters.

Yeah that was the thing I wish they would have included in the doc, someone with a decent SMV.

Besides sharing in common that all three were broke it seemed you had
1) A loser kid who seemed gay and autistic and probably never slept with a woman before and probably should have stayed with the first chick he met there. Definitely probably has no chance to meet a woman at his home country.

2) Some guy who came off as desperately only wanting to import a wife to do his house work(and IMHO it seemed like she just wanted to get the higher wage, at her math one year of work there is worth 8 years of work back home at minimum wage, not a bad deal even if you have to put up with some broke guy that wants you to be his house slave)

3) The most normal imho, just an older guy with some grown kids that wanted to find someone on his level to spend the rest of his days with and enjoy some company but learned first hand how quickly you can get scammed over there.

Not exactly how I picture it going for anyone who has average to above average SMV and social skills. However when I think about it those three categories are probably the main audience that goes over there for that, especially trying out those services. I think most people on this forum that put some real effort into self improvement could obviously have a much better outcome than any of those guys.

Edit: I will also say another issues for all these guys is chicks that hardly speak English. That in itself is a hurdle for most people, let alone if you're awkward. Its the one big plus about the Philippines for me, every time I talk to a native filipina I can still have actual conversations usually.

Watching that doc I felt sympathy for everyone in it. The desperate women in these developing countries showing up at a ratio of 100:15 to meet up with low SMV men, and some of the brothers in it who these relationships might end up bad for (just watching that 90 day fiancé program, do any of these work out?)

Then I realize how high my standards are getting involved with developing world women. To even think of a LTR she’d have to be literally perfect in all respects. A STR would be shed have to be attractive, young, low notch, assisting my life -cooking/clean etc, while she’s faithful and I’m not. But then I have no need for LTR or marriage. But I think coming from the perspective of having no need for marriage makes 100% discerning when I’m in Central America

I notice that I have a superiority complex as well, being a white dude from the West. Like I expect developing world women to be at our feet, and think it’s almost disrespect for them to not show up as well as they can. When I hear stories about China and men dating down, when Western men should be dating up makes me cringe. Or when it’s mostly skanks at these meet ups or at the Thai resorts. But I guess it’s the lowest SMV they are ending up with

That girl at 25:21 though, was a bit alluring

Yes it was interesting hearing those women's true opinion that they found none of them attractive. It was purely transactional for 99% of them I would guess.

One of the folks noted in the documentary that it’s just not the women doing the gaming, but “professional grooms” showing up, using EGF to game better looking women than they’d normally get anywhere else. I can’t hate on that for 85% of the girls who are just semi-pros

I don’t have a lot of tolerance for alpha-widowed Eastern European girls, who’ve ridden the carousel, and expect a western white knight to come in and sweep them off their feet’s either. It’s kind of insulting how they view western men, as beta bucks essentially. They deserve the type of men who show up at those as well.

The 2% of actual loving young pair-bondable girls who show up wanting something real and having to deal with the assortment of men like on the films is who I feel bad for. If they were in America they’d meet someone pretty quick, but can’t meet normal western dudes
