Yes, my wife is laughing at you..."he thinks like an engineer", she says.  And then she said "he needs to start thinking with his heart."

[Rumpy]

The wife says you have a good big chance of finding a good girl because you are clever.  But she adds "NEVER" tell the girl you want cheaper... LOL

[Rumpy]

That would be the death statement to any woman ,,,

rumpy-
 thanks,  i think.  ???   

as far as house..etc.

i am a fairly average guy.
new but average home , in a small town,
certainly  nothing unusual?
 1500sq 2story..
the only actual pride i have in it,  is that i did most of the work myself.

nothing unusual in my salary either unfortuantly.   

but i did have a job,and living situation,  that allowed freedom to travel when i wanted for some extended time frames,
 and also allowed me to work out of europe for a few months each year and also be based out of there for 2 years.
(i was also in Brazil 2 years, and a few other countries in the past)


so on the surface it seems  a good example that a rather average guy can be successful in this venture.
(and they can?)

the strange part is that the type of job i have , and had,
the living situation i was in at the time,
the   freedom of vacation time and ease of scheduling extra time whenever i wanted ,,
and the time i could additionally spend in the FSU,   over the course of 4 or 5 years ..
diffinantly allowed me way  more freedom than any average working guy could probably manage?
also we married in Ukraine..and a few other cxircumstances that were not typical of most guys going thru this??

how relevent it was overall, ,would be debatable?

but to me it was invaluable..
honestly , i would not have been married without it.
So being an average guy,,(who was in unusual circumstances in many ways)
 i would say that if i had been in a routine average 9-5  job..
 i wouldnt have personally been married at this point to a RW.

It would have been my loss.. !!!!!!!!!

but i just wouldnt have been in a position to do so.
i wouldnt have had the vacation time in her country to meet the "right" her , and time be with her and build the relationship ,, that "i persionally needed " to marry.
nor would have felt I had the extended funds for all the costs along the way.. to attempt a couple of years of long distance relationship and international dating,
and the likely reality is in a more niormal circumstance,
i would have been distracted locally as well, as i was never bent on RW ,and do not have anything at all against AW , or any other nationality!! (i do prefer brunnettes with blue eyes though  )

 
 Hey , not everyone needs so much relationship time,
its a very personal thing..

I was holding back on the looks department thinking that the great looking one are just to much trouble

rumpy,
while its true that a pretty woman can be high maintenence..
so can a less attractive one.
 crabby asnd demanding isnt limited to attractiveness?

i find it amusing throughhout life when guys avoid meeting or
speaking with some  attractive lady for 'fear " of this.

first off- its competely unfair to the woman .
beauty is truly only skin deep,
she CAN be the most wonderful, bright, caring ,giving, sweet person..
but guys never find out for fear she might be a high maintenece umm .. 'suka'

it just makes no sense.

 second  -
 they give up the chance to meet such a person,
 and they do exist,
all over a preconceived idea..
and fear of wasting thier time or whatever..

when the person they just noticed ,, is afterall an individual!
and without getting to know them , they have absolutely no idea what they are like,,
*dont judge a book by its cover *
comes to mind..

stereotypes are just as often wrong, as they are right..
and the funnier thing?
whats the worst that could happen?
you find that this attractive woman  matches your preconceived bad stareotype??
ok then easy  enough,..  simply move on..
