1) When I was 18, I started dating this very attractive girl. Things seemed to flow very smoothly and we got along great. There were no games, no BS, nothing. She was Filipino from the Philippines and had come over about 5 years earlier. It was one of the better dating experiences I've had and I thought that's what dating would be like.
Boy, was I wrong.
Eventually, we broke up because of issues with her family, my immaturity, and a bit of shadiness on her part. But it was still the best dating experience I've had to date. I don't want to get into it, but since then, I've dated some batsh*t crazy girls and have some stories that would probably be horrifying to anyone that isn't divorced (I know enough divorced guys IRL to know how badly they've been put through the wringer.....so it's unlikely for anything to surprise them in my experience).
2) Divorce laws in this country. We're all aware of the level of BS involved there. So I won't bother going into it.
3) I'm tired of being one of the shortest guys around. At just under 5'6 (and 5'7 to 5'8 with my lifts), I'm always the shortest guy around. This has been an issue with dating, but it hasn't been too bad. I used to think that this was the reason I was constantly put under a microscope by women. I thought that my height was the reason that women would stop talking to me for basically no reason. Then I became friends with my current good friends who are over 6 feet. They have the same issues.
Either way, I'm just tired of everyone towering over me lol. So I want to move to a country with a smaller average height.
4) I never really had much of a family. Non-western women tend to be more family-oriented and it would be awesome to join a culture like that and experienced something that has alluded for me for reasons out of my control.
5) I just simply like to travel and I like different cultures.
