Sometimes I wonder if you have to have some mental issue to want to move abroad.

This is just a joke by the way but lets just take a guess

Winston - Bipolar, OCD
Pueblicduende - neuroticism, OCD
Newlifeinphilippines - Social anxiety disorder
Outwest - Clincal depression
Marcoszeitola - paranoid schizophrenia
zboy - clinical depression
Paloaltoguy - narcissism, sociopath
will n dowd - narcissism, bipolar


Those who are diagnosis free:

Hero, Taco, Hammanta, pete, davewe, Mr. S, rock

Hammanta - insecurity issues due to micropenis

maybe body dysmorphic disorder AKA bigorexia but probably not.

Oh Cmon, I'm dating an American lesbian, obviously, I've got to have some issues?

narcissism

Actually, I was hoping that I was just plain nuts

Yeah I was being nice, updated

(from Wikipedia)

Neuroticism is a fundamental personality trait in the study of psychology characterized by anxiety, fear, moodiness, worry, envy, frustration, jealousy, and loneliness.

Holey moley, if I knew lowlifeinthephilippines could define me so well in the space of a single post, and without even getting paid, I would have spared myself the £300 I gave to a London psychiatrist last year.

Genius.

I notice you didn't refute OCD

Hey newlifeinthephilippines,
What's the mental disorder called for people who come online and claim to be making $10,000 a month yet have bad grammar skills and nothing to show for it? lol

Only an OCD person would think Grammar or perfectionism has anything to do with maknig money online or be a quality in a person who can make massive money online in creative ways. In fact your viewpoint you share on that issue is one reason why you and publicdouche are both OCD, or anal retentive at the very least lol

I dont bring it up anymore cause obviously I dont need to prove anything and you dont know all the situation of everything about my life and frankly I dont care to share it with you. But since you brought it up actually winston this is gonna eat you up inside to learn its about 21,000 a month at the moment and it may even go higher soon cause im busting my ass which is why i took a break from posting for awhile and im taking a long hiatus from all traveling or anything. Not sure how long my income will last this good but well see. Now what are you doing at the moment? Lets see traveling, blaming murphys law, and a resentment to others making more than you online (youve done this with others). Your attitude about it is the same approach about western women. If you can't make the same amount than no one else can. If you can't find a hot american woman to marry, than no one else can.

Guys who go abroad are usually depress or something else. If your well adjusted and happy why go abroad? Typically I find its usually the social outcast that wants to go abroad. For guys who do sex tourism tend to.be sexaddicts. Others guys that go abroad do it out of loneliness thinking it be better over seas.

Newlifephilippines,

Curious what kind of business are you doing to make that income? Is it affiliate marketing?

sort of can't really go into specifics.

[chanta76]

Newlifeinphilippines,

Who wants specifics? I take it your doing online business. Its either affiliate marketing or your selling your own stuffor service. Unless your doing something illegal.

I feel the opposite. I live in a town where a lot of individuals are content with never leaving, knowing the same people, knocking the same girl up from high school, and working the same job for years and years. The day to day, 9-5 white picket fence American mentality doesn't interest me one bit. To me those people have psychological issues or insecurities. They are scared to try something different or to break the norm. I realize I am speaking from a viewpoint of a 24 year old that has no plans to settle down in the near future, but I didn't travel abroad because of manic depressive disorders. I went abroad for the excitement, the culture, and to learn. That is something I've been curious and interested in since I can remember. I think others here may feel the same.

But I don't disagree either. Some, as evident on this forum, have issues that they feel they can solve by going abroad- can't get a girlfriend in the US, try overseas; don't have any friends, then live somewhere else; don't mix well with Americans, maybe Brazil will be different. Those are all legitimate issues and some can be solved with a changing of environment. Others won't be happy anywhere. The development of strong social skills with a variety of demographics is important no matter where you go.
