[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve only dated in DC as an adult, mostly Americans, but have had a longish relationship with a woman who moved here from another country for law school and with a foreign embassy employee. Another 3-4 month relationship with a woman whose parents were immigrants, but they were very wealthy and she had a typical upper class American upbringing. [b]I’ve noticed no major differences and have little respect for men who pull the “American woman can’t compare” card.[/b] [/quote] If you've never dated women outside the US then of course you wouldn't notice a difference. Ignorance is bliss I guess. Enjoy those DC hotties buddy. [/quote] Thanks, pal! It's being going great so far.[/quote] DC women are very international and diverse in all age groups. Grad students from all over the world; ex spouses of international orgs staff. These are usually foreign born women from upper class families or the women selected for their beauty abroad by ex husbands, and then brought to the US. Lifestyle and beauty are correlated.[b] Not sure why any man would need to travel abroad to find a woman, if he lives in dmv area with such huge selection [/b][/quote] Depending on the country, it can be like night and day in terms of the number of quality women you can date relative to the US. There is a reason none of these guys date American women. What you are saying is true about foreign born women in the DC area, but as people inevitably assimilate, they tend to lose their redeeming qualities that you initially found attractive.[/quote] [b]You are just not well-off enough to date attractive foreign women in DC.[/b] This full assimilation never really happens culturally. Looks also remain with the woman if she’s a real beauty she’ll age well. If she had a wealthy family to send her for a grad program or married into US, very likely she’s got great genes - both intelligence and beauty. But foreign born women mature financially very quickly; by 30 y.o. in DC, if they have a good degree. They don’t date “regular” man just because a beautiful woman with brain and money has options. Accent or cultural background don’t matter. Execs in dmv area often date foreign born women of all ages. Agree that if you go abroad, the women there wouldn’t have as many options. But you also have to deal with negative selection: wh…res, who are only with you for money; girls who barely speak English, not as good of a gene pool, etc. [/quote] Yeah, the more attractive foreign women in DC will generally be pursuing guys willing to spend lots of cash on them. And no doubt, if you are an executive, you have a lot more options. But these women are more interested in $ than anything else, so they aren't a whole lot better than your avg striver type American woman in the DC area. The big advantage to dating in other countries is the number of available women. You are looking at a dating pool of 2 million people in a large Latin American city vs maybe something like 50k foreign women in DC.[/quote] No, they are not pursuing any men- men are pursuing attractive women. Overall deficit of men doesn’t affect attractive females. And in terms of cash - you do realize that a long term specialist at WB/IMF group makes around 300k, right? Women simply try to date equals as we don’t like to trade down our lifestyle. If he’s not used to gym, cleaning ladies, good food I’m not there to change him. And he’ll think I’m spoilt just because I already have access to all these services. I want to have similar spending habits as my partner; not more and not less [/quote] We aren't talking about you or women making 300k (hardly the norm, even in DC), so not sure why you are defensive. But you do sound high maintenance with an unhealthy focus on money. No way any guy in his right mind would date someone like that in your home country.[/quote] I wouldn’t date anyone in my home country. I’m light years ahead in many life aspects. But you sure can bring a submissive wife until she drops you after getting a green card [/quote] Submissive? No thanks. Maybe you're confusing 90 day fiance with the the real world.[/quote]
