I’m new too
Happily married 20 years to my Dominican husband, we are one of the very few exceptions of mixed Dominican / other nationality couples that we know who are still together.
Want to be sure. Give him the "Test". Simple, have a girlfriend of yours call him and say she met him in the hotel and wants to get together when she comes back. You will save a lot of time and find out quick what you are dealing with. Hope it works out well, but the odds are not good.........
We're now close to 16 (in 3 months) years now with my Dominican wife. Same here as quoted above, usually stand out where ever we go in that other parents are much older than we or that we are from completely different cultures yet somehow it works... 3 years of age difference, both went to the university, 2 kids, both of us kind of introverts... We have traveled but my wife has never had a desire to leave the DR for her. For the kids we have both wanted education abroad though. When we met and practically ever since then, her family has been way more wealthier than me, to the point that when we were young and dumb, my father-in-law lent us the money to rent an apartment as I was between jobs... Her whole family have always been hard workers, having their own businesses...
40 years younger, some will say she is waiting it out to collect the monthly basket of nuts that we call widow’s pension
Although there are too many cars in the capital and Santo Domingo, I find it hard to believe that it is 100% true that there are more of them than there are people. Do you have evidence of this? And while there are wealthy people living in those cities, there are a lot of poor ones too.
Oh Goody .. another one ..
HOLA , and Please do keep us updated ... we love a Romantic Love Story ..

Had a Mexican girlfriend in the mid 1990s. She was educated and from money, both parents were successful doctors in Pueblo. She didn't mind the age difference of 11 years too much, but I did.
My Dominican wife is three years younger than me, has lots of education, speaks 3 languages, came from a poor background as a child (like me) but with hard work and brains became successful. We are both homebodies, her more so than me, both like to travel, but aren't into the party lifestyle, basically nondrinkers. We are both readers, and outdoor people. I am unreligious and she is a Catholic that only goes to church for funerals...etc. 25 years and counting.

Aren’t you married to a Dominican?
Touche .. yes going on 7 years in Dec. but I knew her for years before I made that jump , we have 14 year History total actually .
But yeagh , could not be happier.
I aint knocking marrying a Dominican.. not at all. just shocked how many fall for the Resort worker/ dancer named "Fausto" ( copyright Gorgon)
I just wish they would stick around to tell us how it turns out .
If you are so astute why are
Yep you're wasting your time on love. Settle for the lust and save your money.

I just believe you have to have something in common with the other person. For me, I was still a flight attendant when I met my spouse. We dated for probably a little less than 2 years before we got married. We both had our own lives, work, etc... So financially there was no "dependency" on each other. His family was "known" so I never had any doubts when he introduced me to them. Nothing ever felt uncomfortable or "off". I think that if the OP in her mind is questioning certain things, then take the relationship for what it is. I don't think I would want to be in a relationship thinking "the worst that can happen is I helped someone who needed it". Meeting someone and deciding to "financially support them to a degree" not sure if that is the best way to start a relationship. Normally that would be a decision made later down the road. But that is just my opinion.
I'll bet all these successful marriages between foreigners and Dominicans weren't with one being employed as a hotel worker.... 14 yrs with my Dominican wife, and not a hotel worker...... Those hotel workers see thousands of visitors weekly and have the game down pat.... sorry to rain on your parade, but this won't end well.....
Might be a difference between a "hotel" employee and a "resort" employee. At the resorts I see there is more interaction with guests as opposed to the hotels in Santo Domingo, Santiago, etc... A friend of ours from Canada has been married 18 years to a Dominican who was the front desk manager at one of the bigger hotels in Santo Domingo. At a resort they are encouraged to mingle with the guests, so I do agree those looking to "game" someone, they know the process well.
"A report in Listin Diario on 13 September 2021 gives the statistics that explain this grim reality. The National District has 1,380,075 vehicles and a population of 1,049,567 persons. Listin Diario says the day will soon come when the city will just be one continuous traffic jam.|
if that was the truth,,, her end game is a long one as she has been waiting 10 years already............40 years younger, some will say she is waiting it out to collect the monthly basket of nuts that we call widow’s pension
35 years together, married since 2016
So long as the OP understands it will be an open relationship (whether he is honest about it or not) I've no doubt they will be very happy together.
If the OP is not interested in being in open relationship then I would advise her not to date a Dominican man who works at a resort.

OP Go back to post #23. Give him "The Test"...You will find out in minutes. Or keep telling yourself he is "different"..............
