30 years !!!!!! really.....only an idiot ( man or woman ) would waste 30 years of their adult life on something that was never real.
After 30 years maybe you just get tired of the relationship in general but to insinuate that it was fake all along or a set up.....GTFOH
Jilted much ?

I was kind of feeling the same way......I mean if you lasted 30 years that is a milestone within itself anywhere in the world. I thought that was funny...
So a 12 year scam is understandable
but than 30 years would be unreal
You're obviously on top of things and the exception
Truth hurt much ?

What we are doing here is hindsight and history..... 20/20 vision.
Comments are at best from bad experiences and the inability to determine the future beyond the experiences of the past.
When it should be the learning from the mistakes of the past.
I have many friends in Canada who have been married several times. Their wives were not Dominican.
The trouble is that it is always ''the other person'' who precipitates the trouble.
But, what made them precipitate in such a manner.
Food for thought.
I am not perfect as a husband , nor am I innocent in all things.
But, we are working on it. ''Together''.
WTF anyway?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Be introspective, yada, yada, yada. This is a very different culture, and moral and ethical norms from western society are very different.
If you apply your own standards and think it relates to the way things may work back in your home country, then you are not being empathetic to what these people are thinking. Things that would be shameful in another country are a source of pride for Dominicans. Doesn't mean it won't ever happen back home, but the value system is reversed.
There is immense pride in the scam and that is what they live for. Everything is a zero-sum game and there is no win-win in this society.
does the name DRdone mean you lived here and left? If so great, in the course of my more than 20 years here I have meet both some scumbags and some wonderful people. surprisingly both groups have been comprised of both dominicans and foreigners.

Where exactly is this utopia you reside in which is devoid of scumbags, and that you are allowed to let your moral compass guide your existence?
So let's analyze the incorrectness of your sentence. First you say an area devoid of scumbags. I stated that there are only scumbags in the DR, so any place that is not 100% scumbags would be better. Then in the same sentence you mock having a moral compass. Everyone has one, it is just where one's would personally be set. In short with your logic skills, I think you've found your utopia.
"There are only scumbags in DR."
You should give that statement some thought before beginning to correct anyone on anything. Whenever anyone tells me that this nationality or that nationality is that way or this way I for the most part don't even bother trying to have an intelligent conversation with them. You or anyone can't possible think that the above statement is a true one. For even if there was one good person your statement would be false. Yet, you are telling us that out of millions of people while you were there the only one with a decent moral compass was you. Perhaps, I'm missing something but I highly doubt it.
