These type of posters, both men,& women, are not looking for information, they are looking for VALIDATION!!!!!!!
Why would you ask, or even care, what a group of strangers have to say regarding a life changing event??????
The OVERWHELMING consensus from the DR1 community, is always, "Run, don't WALK away from her/him, as FAST AS YOU CAN!!!!!
Nobody pays ANY ATTENTION!
"Love Is Blind",....and also "Deaf", "Dumb",& "STUPID"!!!!!
He will do what his "PRICK" tells him to do!
I DID JUST THAT, 20 years ago!!!!!!

A questions to those in gringo/dominican marriages? How do you deal with the cousins and nieces and siblings? Is it reasonable for this guy to say your mother and nobody else. I am not talking about the family dinner when cousins show up cuz you just got pounds of chicharron. I mean requests for money for tuition, antibiotics, a hundred dollar "loan". As a dominicana does she take the lead on the family or as the husband is the gringo in charge. Is it possible to support just the mother and nobody else? Do you have an amount in your head that you disperse over a year?

Notsowiseguy, just so you know in the dr gringo means almost anybody not dominican, not Latino. Poles, Germans, Americans and French are more or less gringos. Not just Americans of European descent.

We help out NOBODY except her mother from time to time ( small stuff like a couple hundred pesos for loteria, some nice food, ie fish, cheese..... ).
Cousins amd uncles, aunts. Forget it.
Brothers and sisters. No way. Use them amd pay them at need. BIL motoconcho, I ll use him.
Need help for washing clothes, employ SIL/sobrina. Stuff like that.

Never lend money, never give money. ( ok, a couple of pesos to the wee ones for a treat at school from time to time ).

The funny thing is : her older sister is also married ( dominican way, not real wedding) with a gringo ( but live back in europe ). He never says no. Money for food, money for rum, money for clothes for kids, medcine, petrol for motorbike....... and the in laws think he is a dumb ass........
I get on with everyone, but I will only pay my fair share for anything. " es un tigere " is often used to describe me.

If you are scared to be called taca?o, throw a" party " from time to time. Some rum, some crabs and platano. Invite everyone.

I admit that at first ( years ago ), my wife took the lead. She didnt want any of her family to "abuse " of me or my means ( that I dont have by the way). They were all forewarned.
Now dont even need to warn my BIL, who is a hustler, not to f#$@ with my gringo friends or my family, when they visit. He knows not to,mess with me.:devious:

The Op should marry her, as he has already paid for the cow and he seems to like the milk.
You (the OP) has no ability to test her as she already got a house out of you....She wins hands down (or pants down).
Word of advice, never try to make a ho a housewife (its biblical too).

@ The Weather is Here
Sure, I could do that. But I do not want to do that. One will do for me perfectly. By the way, I forgot to mention this because it slipped my mind when writing my 'novel'. I've seen her papers (she wanted to marry while here and thus brought all papers along, with apostille etc.) that she really does not have children (unless DR is more corrupt than I think it is and whatever document you'll see it is all forged, including passports, birth certificates, criminal records and apostilles issued through the ministry of exterior/interior. But then one could assign 'failed state' status to the DR).

3 Words for you.....................................RUN FORREST RUN!!!!

Ask her if she would hook up with Enrique Iglesias or Daddy Yankee etc if she had the chance.
If you get a yes, then she is obviously with you until something better comes along :)

The fact that you have come to an open forum for advice is pretty indicative of someone that has lots of doubts. Move on, plenty more fish in the sea.

You have at least a 50 50 shot. Working in a bar is not a deal breaker 100%. Many guys who frequent strip bars are jerks. Seems she recognizes you are a quality guy. Write down the worst that can happen if you marry. If its acceptable send me an invitation to the wedding if you have an open bar.

I broke every one of Hillbillys rules when I married a Dominican girl. Its been ten years and it was the best thing I ever did. My wife is way smarter than I am, more honest, more hard working, more trustworthy, more appreciative, more family oriented, saves our money and treats me like a king. Plus she is gorgeous. Sometimes you just get lucky.

enrique is hot. many married women would hop on his latino trouser snake. it's not a question of "something better coming along". it's a question of grabbing opportunities and famous peens whenever they come along.

I'm married to a Dominican for 38 years, so I've seen it all, heard it all, experienced it all. My husband is softer than I am when it comes to loans, but I'm way softer when it comes to gifts. I think in his case he doesn't want to look cheap when someone asks for a small amount.

Someone asked for $200USD a couple of years ago, he did ask me my opinion, and we lent the money, knowing it probably wouldn't be repaid [well, he thought it would be, I didn't] - and not a nickel back so far. The upside of this is this person can't ask for another dime EVER, until the $200 is repaid, which will be never. We always sent money to his mother, every month, for decades. The downside of that was that family/friends would see the guy delivering the $$$, and they'd all hit her up for "loans", so we fixed that by sending the money to a trusted brother who then went to the supermarket and bought her everything she needed. Since she died 2 years ago, we send nothing to anyone.

Where we live in DR, the entire neighborhood is always begging for something or another. He used to hand a few hundred pesos here and there, but one day he put his foot down and no one gets anything now. Like Malko, we hire them when we need something done, but we otherwise keep a distance because down there familiarity is a recipe for disaster.

I think it's different when the Dominican is the woman, as they look to the man for 'loans' usually.

Maybe I am reading the post wrong but it seems it is all about money. I just didn't get the sense your head over heels in love with this woman. Seems more of a possible business deal. I agree with some of the others, if you have to come to a public forum to get opinions from "strangers" then I would say you already see the "writing on the wall".
