Secret commissions

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Your contention that American women are worse than Asian women is absurd.
The same as in: does a bear shit in the woods? :beer3:

You don't think cultural values and standards come into it? :mrgreen:

There are some good girls. I have not met yours, but I hope you have a good one.

I think if we are honest, we need to admit there are many Cambodian girls who put on a fake act to scam foreigners.

Lets be honest, so people getting Cambodian girlfriends in the future are warned.

I know there are better and worse than my lady, but at a certain point, you choose to commit, and you pledge to them to honor them and that your word means something. You ask the same in return.

I like the truth of this. I have not been in such a situation.
Honor: its a word in a marriage vow that is often overlooked. It speaks to our behavior and how it can elevate our partner or also bring them down. I like how my lady makes me want to be a better person and to try, every day to make good choices. Love is more than a feeling, it is also an action word. Long after the feelings wane or are, at times are missing, the commitment love goes on and does its thing. Hopefully, your partner can reciprocate and carry on when you your-self are less attractive, sick or just plain making a mess of things. We carry each other in the downtime's. That is the ultimate relationship; perhaps just a fantasy, but the ideal, and the one that I will do my part of the bargain with.

There are some good girls in Cambodia. I think of a group of university students, all genuine girls, all hoping for true love. Not one of them is thinking of scamming their future boyfriend. A few of them are very beautiful. Some of them speak English well. Most of them would make good wives for a good foreign man, or a good Cambodian man.

However, you also need to meet the family. With many of them the family would be good too. With some of them, the family would see the boyfriend has money, and would put the girl under pressure to get money from the boyfriend.

They also have different levels of life experience or maturity. Some of them would like expensive phones, expensive clothes, and expensive motorbikes. If one of these girls was to become the girlfriend of a foreigner, they could discuss many things, like lets work together to save money.
I met mine when she was in her last year at uni. I met her family the same day I met her. At their house even.

There are a lot of [insert nationality here] girls that will put on an act to scam a man. Its easy to act charming and lure a man with your wares for a while. Its universal. Girls all know it well, in fact, I was warned more by my lady friends and family about being exploited by women (most girls I know do not trust other 'bitches' I wonder why) than any of my men friends.

Again, we all want something. We do not enter relationship just to serve. That's absurd. I'm sure you will figure it out Explorer if you really want to find a genuine good woman, they are out there, but it takes a lot of time to vet them, and you will never meet them if you are spending all your time in places with more 'experienced' and worldly women.

One more thing. I am certain you posted this almost exact same post earlier in the thread. That's a bit strange?

WTF :please:
i'd say 90% of Khmer girls never come in contact with any Barangs and the other 10% MAYBE .00001 % have any intention to scam anyone

You need get out and see the world, you have a very twisted sense of reality

There are probably quite a few shades of gray in between wanting a better life with a foreigner and scamming him..

I was questioning explorers statement not stating my personal thoughts on the matter.
This is clear from my use of “are you sure about that”
And “or are you referring to a particular subset”

Or does my post come across as saying something else??

Edit to add: I was waiting for him to reply with bargirls and I was then going to counter with something similar to what you posted.... about there being only a small percentage of actual real bargirl scammers. But your statement about local girls coming into contact with westerners is true and a good counter to his original statement.

Lets not debate the percentage. But there are many.

Yes. Certain types of girls are much more likely to want to scam foreigners. But not all girls you would meet in a village would do the right thing either. Many would.

My aim is to present honest information so men thinking about getting a Cambodian girlfriend in the future, might take more time to get to know them, and avoid the pitfalls.

I also discussed the good ones. Lets hope they look for a good one.
