What is a decent allowance for a Khmer girlfriend?
After 3 years of dating a Khmer woman I want to determine what people pay their girlfriends for allowances. I had set my ex's allowance at 25% of my income or 300USd whichever was higher. I am curious if this was a fair rate for a Khmer girlfriend.

There is no decent allowance. If she is money orinted and she can earn $100 a week freelancing behind tyour back she will.michael.stewart1 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 5:40 am After 3 years of dating a Khmer woman I want to determine what people pay their girlfriends for allowances.

If she is not focussed on money then she will not necessarlit expect much more than bed and board and you buying her clothes etc
If she has a large family then they will push herto get more.
I used to give y "gf" $250 6 years ago and she still could not resist popping off to earn a few dollars more when I wasnt looking.
I had a friend who gave his $1000 a month and she did the same.
Another friend gave his $100 a month for mum and made her work in a khmer restaurant to earn her money and she was a faithful as a pet labrador.
Its not the amount, its the girl

Yeah imagine the roles were reversed and someone came along and doubled your salary, or even raised it by 50%. If you’re still not happy then you’re probably a gold digger right?

Dont give her an allowance, have her go out and get a real job
she will make her own money and raise her self worth.
Than you cover all expenses ( rent, food, small bit of shopping,dead buffalo, etc)

Re: What is a decent allowance for a Khmer girlfriend?
do you live with her? She doesn't need allowance you pay for everything already, it's way enough.
you don't live with her? 0$.If you pay you are just one of her boyfriends.
Unless you have kids with her, you don't have to give her allowance.

Agree with all the cheap Charlies above. Don’t make her a dependent of You.

I don't believ i suggested any criticism of the girls at all. Anyoenwho thinks they canbuy love is going to be diappointed whichever sex they are.finish_money wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 7:08 amYeah imagine the roles were reversed and someone came along and doubled your salary, or even raised it by 50%.

Anyone who thinks they can buy exclusive rights to someone else with money is equally likely to learn a harsh lesson.
The fact is in poor countries sex is often sold. Who is to blame, the girls(or boys,or ladyboys) or the customers who are willing to pay for a "relationship"
And is it really any different in the west? Are girls attracted o men with sports cars more than men with old bangers? Do girls deliberatley go to clubs frequented by wealthy men to try and get a wealthy boyfriend? Answer, as anywhere, is some doand some dont. Some girls will have sex with you for $10 because they are desperate for money to pay for medicine for their mum, some want $100 because they are desperate for a new handbag, and some will not sell sex at any price. Some men will not go near girls with children. While gold diggers exist in all sexes and all countries i think most people have an acceptable set of parameters when they look for a partner. whether its financial stability or body type or health or a mix of all. Gold diggers are no worse than people who only date blondes or girls with big breast. They are just applying their preference whether its financial or other

I pay them to leave after 5 minutes.

Re: What is a decent allowance for a Khmer girlfriend?
Decent allowance? It sounds like you need to have a serious discussion with your Khmer better half first. And then both come up with a mutual amount needed. What kind of girlfriend is she? Is she a rental, or in it for the long term? Or one that will move with you to Suriname in the middle of a civil war? Does she work? Does she even need or want ‘support’? Or does she even have a job now?
For example, my missus is preparing for the eventual big trip across the ocean. She is devoting all her efforts to mastering English, staying fit, her friends, the future embassy interview, and adjusting to a different life. We discuss how much she spends on everything. I am not risking her life getting coronavirus in a hospital somewhere, so I pay for it all. Plus help with family emergencies. It’s the reason why I don’t work in the Kingdom of Wonder. She supports me 24/7, no matter what, no matter where, no matter how, no matter when. I am her priority.
I know it’s a bit extreme, but it all boils down to a long serious talk with your Khmer girlfriend. Not just her allowance, but your allowance as well.
Best of luck and happiness.
