I genuinely have no idea where in my post you thought that I was judging people. I'm pretty sure I said I was curious, but I made no allusions to judging people.
But to play devil's advocate for a moment, if someone thinks that buying a wife as though they were chattle, is somehow less egregious than being a party to infidelity, they may want to re-calibrate their moral compass
Eh, which one of those is you?...
though my experience comes from living with slav construction workers lmao
Lol with all the white sexpats on here not surprised by the replies.
If some fat disgusting old african, asian or muslim guy was in a poor white country with a 20 year old poor white girl ya'll would be raging.
Charming a woman with your riches is a far cry from slavery. Not much different than a really rich guy marrying a more attractive domestic woman of lesser means.But to play devil's advocate for a moment, if someone thinks that buying a wife as though they were chattle, is somehow less egregious than being a party to infidelity, they may want to re-calibrate their moral compass
Couldn't sum it up better myselfMeh.
Happens everywhere although rarely with the extreme appearance gap seen here.
Women are attracted to social status first and foremost, hence why they’ll go for the popular guy at school/work or just about any bloke that’s ever been a ‘celebrity’. Men are attracted to looks predominantly, and how attractive their partner is seen in the eyes of other men.
Men are also more comfortable marrying down the social ladder, while women often want to marry up.

Feel free to explain how women chasing rich yet unattractive celebrities is objectively different than this relationship.
PS: Reading through this thread, it seems like we have some Sherdoggers who have done this (or a form of this). @steve38
Out of genuine curiosity, what was the driving force behind going overseas to find a partner?
Have you ever felt ambivalence or uncertainty regarding your partners commitment or love for you?
If you could do it all again, would you?
Did you ever have reservations about how your friends or family (or society) would perceive what you are doing?
I ask these questions with the utmost of respect. I am always fascinated at the dynamics of love and marriage both across and within cultures. In all honesty, it isn't principally different than what I experience whenever I go to Guyana or India - once people find out that I'm a single professional who is a Canadian citizen, I have "aunties" asking me if I would be willing to marry their daughters (sight unseen). Growing up in Canada, I laugh at how ludicrous it sounds, but I have friends who have found their life partners that exact same way.
Eh, which one of those is you?
So basically Matt Hardy lmaoHe looks like a fat, squished Matt Hardy
