this denotes issues to me. some that you need to deal w on your own before setting out to "buy" a long term companion. this is a general "you", btw, for all those who cannot find ANYTHING back home and magically believe they will make it work in the DR if only they can pay to control it.
Control issues. Insecurity issues. Severe ones. Maybe bad social adjustment ones too---back home youre a loser but in the DR youre a rockstar because youre a foreigner w money. not saying this is trainman, but its the gist i get from alot of these dudes who are forever "suffering".
Whatever the case, it seems to always end in disaster when broken, selfish people try to make things work w other possibly even more broken and way more financially motivated people.
its simply a recipe for disaster.
get your sh*t together.
coming to the DR will not magically do that. you can forget about it for a bit, yes, but it will only bubble to the surface again because the problem is you.
thats why so many folks get hurt out in these DR sKreets.
I look at it differently. I could care less if he going to "buy" someone or something. All I would hope is that he is getting VALUE for his efforts. It doesnt sound like it to me, but then again we are all here hearing the story 2nd hand from one of the horses mouths. That is the thing with these romance issues. At first I thought she had a right to want stability in her life and prospective relationship with a request for marriage and a place to live. I wouldnt do it but then again its not me. The cheap furniture to me was just a way to furnish an already existing ugly place with new "trinket-y" furniture. Glass tabletops with stamped aluminum chairs with padded seat, coffee table and home entertainment center. Not a bad deal for a woman whom I presume would take to the Ama de Casa role heartily with her American husband. But as he added more to the intricate workings of his relationship he didnt seem pleased. I still dont have judgement to determine if she is foul or not. All I can presume is that the dude in question here is not happy with this woman. Hence all the questions and suspicions. So why bother going to the whole concert just to hear the finale? If you want to cut her off, then wrap it up nice and neat. Burn your bridges if you want to, but I have a different way to operate than all that.
Arguments about money can ruin any relationship if the people are in the SAME economic position so it is irrelevant if the differences in these cases are that grand. In the latter it only means the poorer person may think the richer person is a fairy godparent or equivalent. Apart from finding the woman hot, the dude here has to ask himself what is it he is looking for in her head. To me, thats where the DR has the advantage over the US. Pretty and smart is a good combination. Although you tend to run waaaay more pretty than smart. But even still I d prefer Caribbean DR women to American Dominican women. For instance, lets take Johanny, wow she was real hot, brown skin, fat juicy lips, curvy when I met her 2 years ago(in NY), but dammit she overdid it on the sausages. I saw her a month ago I think and her ass looked like the back of my van, minus the taillights. If I had a picture I d show you. I almost wanted to dangle a Chevy chain around her neck. Thats a shame, shame, shame, fine ass woman like that!
Now complying with Bx's request to not throw punches, you and Anastacio made reference to the possibility that the dude could be a dogface(my words not yours). Likewise, the DR is epinonymous with having thousands of very attractive men and women. Yes thats true, BUT.......some of the women(and men) couldnt make the grade on a test that they wrote. Simply put, some of them are 10s but some of them are 4s. So the only thing excluding a domestic Dominican dogface is the convenient truth that she wouldnt get any attention from a foreign man.
Get some confidence brother, there are 1.3 Million people in Santiago, more than half of them women. As long as you stay away from mine you will have plenty to peruse. Besides dont think that a younger woman will give you less grief, most assuredly she wont.
I think the dude should talk to a less attractive woman anyway, they frequently are more humble and have less angst to worry you over. Go ahead Bro, get yourself a 5 or something, a two 3s with saggy boobs and orthopedic shoes. Leave the 10s for badpiece and Berzin.
