Sponsoring a bar girl

This is the part of the forum where we discuss Cambodia's nightlife! While most bars, nightclubs, pubs, beer gardens, and hostess bars are in Phnom Penh, we discuss the Cambodian nightlife across all of Cambodia, including Siem Reap, Kampot, and Sihanoukville. The main nightlife areas in Phnom Penh are on Street 136, Street 130, Street 110 and Street 51, but there are other party spots that aren't girlie bars where expats, tourists, and locals drink until the sun comes up. Feel free to post specials and promotions that relate to nighttime fun!

Foreigners generally earn 5-20 times what the girls are making. They have a fair amount of disposable income. If they choose to give a small part of it to one or more girls in Asia, I think that’s their choice.
I’ve talked to countless guys who do this and almost all are aware that ‘their’ girl is getting money from other sources and is often continuing to work in a bar. But they are happy to help the girl a bit. They may be lonely overseas or just feeling generous, but they get a good feeling by donating. I’m puzzled why both Violet and RozzieOz fail to understand this.
For the scenario the OP mentions I’d guess $50-$150 a month would be typical.

i'd only send as much money as you dont care to lose if the GFE experience you are trying to get out of your friendship with this girl doesnt work out in the long run,
like you dont want to be left with a sour taste in your mouth and feeling of regret from thinking how much money you threw away on a false idea, but if the money you send is enough to keep you entertained and get the experience you are wanting, then its not really wasted, and she will benefit also,
other people waste their money on other things that entertain them, in the pub, bookies, shopping, hobbies etc, as long as you are getting what you want out of it, then enjoy yourself mate, just be ahead of the game :)

If you decide to go down the financial route mentally for your own sanity I'd treat each payment like a visit to the casino or a day at the races. You write off the money for a bit of short enjoyment, in your case presumably some online/temporary companionship in a lonely personal situation, and anything that develops beyond that is a win. Just remember the odds are stacked against you, the house or bookie usually wins.

I was in this situation myself for a couple of years. I met 2 women who were playing the streets in Angeles Philippines. They came as a pair and yadda yadda. Neither were particularly beautiful but we kind of hit it off as a threesome. It was casual and not just about sex. Sometimes we'd just hang out and grab a bite. I got to know the one woman as she'd invite me over. She had a 5 year old and was looking after her 14 year old neice as well. She was doing what she had to do to make ends meet. I'd bring her groceries but not wear out my welcome. The other women was more of a player and had a boyfriend.

I really started to like the one with the kid, more as a person, not as a potential partner. Of course she was younger than me and I was not going to be staying in the Philippines.

Out of the blue after I had been back home for awhile I sent her a couple hundred dollars. She almost had a stroke with joy as she hadn't ever asked for much, even when I was in the Philippines. I would occasionally just send her money and gave her a nice Christmas gift ($). The next year I went back and more or less carried on as we had from the year before with the 3 of us and yadda yadda.

Then she told me that her neice had sold her virginity to some Korean guy at like 15 years old. I was really shocked and discusted. Not at the neice but at the guy.

So I continued to occasionally send her money after I got home again. After awhile when the pandemic hit it was harder for me to send money and she was desperate for more money as they were totally under lockdown and there weren't any tourists.

I felt terrible but stopped sending money as I couldn't really afford it. She was such a sweetheart and really genuine.

I know that I won't be going back to the Philippines but always think about her.

This is the conundrum. When does it end? What is the endgame? Are you doing it for pure philanthropic reasons or is it cause she's hot and you'd like to keep banging her in the future? This woman was by far not the hottest, and not by any means a bar girl. Her friend was much better looking but not so genuine.

How will you feel about at some point moving on if things don't go your way?

I went into this with eyes wide open. I'd played the field before and knew the game. I had met all kinds.

Just some thoughts.

There’s always a possibility that this woman is stringing you along and you don’t really know her and she’s manipulating you and isn’t actually into you.

Just playing the game as many have before her.

But good luck to you. You seem aware of the pitfalls.
People of the world, spice up your life.

That could be true, but I didn't get that sense. Like I said I've been around for awhile and played these games before.

Fell in love over and over in Asia but moved on very quickly once I caught on to the scene.

Never felt the urge to help like that before. Of course I was much younger then and never had to pay for it. Lol. And they were much younger and didn't have kids. It was more party time.

And I never said that she was that much into me. It was very casual and laid back. The transaction was there of course, and that was understood, but it wasn't like "hansum man" "love you long time"

If you are sending money no strings attached and out of the goodness of your heart then why not. She will appreciate it and if it makes you feel good than you should do it.

If it is some way of keeping her chaste and off the street, having her as your girlfriend overseas, or any attempt at anything monogomous or based around the concept of romance or love then forget about it. You will only end up paying to get anxious, then angry, then hurt.

Surely this is one of the dumbest ideas ever. The concept in itself is so ridiculous I'm almost at a loss for words.

Bar girl = pay as you go. If you want to sponsor a "girl", find (a good) one to be your girlfriend or wife.

Having a GF or a wife, really!! Surely this is one of the dumbest ideas ever. The concept in itself is so ridiculous I'm almost at a loss for words. LOL
