How come on most expat forums when someone brings up the topic such as they're moving to X country to be with a girl or to meet women, most people immediately try to discourage them from doing so. In general when people talk about women the first thing they say is, "Be careful - women from country X are extremely good at being gold diggers." It seems so many people try to discourage others from trying to be happier abroad.djfourmoney wrote:Why you so negative? Make your own luck by being prepared... Just about any FSU or former FSU country would be fine, even Belarus and Lithuania.
You don't see any trip reports because too many people think like you do, duh.
This is the problem with this website, people are way too negative and talk themselves out of traveling, amazing.
Stay off the beaten path, its cheaper and Westerners don't go there. More for you... Honestly FSU isn't somewhere I would want to live because of the weather.
There are millions of women in FSU who won't have children (or out of desperation have a child with a stranger, don't scoff, I know at least two women who have done it) or ever get married because morons like you like to look at everything negative.
Its restricted travel (Visas are required for most countries there), but its affordable overall. Line up some dates and go, don't be a children-sh*t.
You name it. The glass is always half empty for most people online. They'll always find some little problem, and harp on it as the supreme reason to stay home. Addressing the specific issue of women being gold diggers abroad, I would say it's more of a risk at home, and the real sociopathic foreign con artists are a small minority of the given population of any foreign country. Still, people on the internet like to paint the picture that if you go to X country you will be mugged at every turn and pumped and dumped for your money by the most skillful, sociopathic women on the planet.
