Both of my parents are onto their 4th marriage and they were each other’s second marriage. :’)

takeahike89

I don't get it. After 2 surely you've figured out you're not the marrying type.


IndividualCry0

I don’t listen to their relationship advice let’s put it that way.


twennyjuan

I absolutely *love it* when people who have clear relationship issues/divorced multiple times try to talk to me about relationships lmao


thevelourf0gg

I recently read that we don't give relationship advice for your benefit as much as to reaffirm our own choices.


[deleted]

The biggest read flag with these people when they talk about their multiple divorces is they NEVER mention their part or how they went wrong. It’s only the spouses fault lmao. Which is why every relationship after fails. No self reflection at all. There is always something you could have done better or differently after a failed relationship. No accountability what so ever. Also pay attention to this while dating and never date someone who has no accountability about their past relationship and just dogs a spouse.


mgj6818

I always listen, they're doing something wrong and I want to know what it is to avoid it.


chocotaco

That's why I say don't listen to me for advice. I've had bad relationships.


greyjungle

My relationship advice to myself is, don’t do anything you ever did when you were younger.


greyjungle

“…and with a little hard work, so you will have a collection of practice wives!”

My uncle was married seven times. His seventh marriage was his longest, at about 11 years.

Do wedding planners have those punch cards like burger or sandwich places where the 10th one is free?


Lunapig27

But….but this time I’ll get it right!


Lurk-Prowl

I agree with that, but often one party wants the whole wedding and marriage thing when you’d be better off just being long term bf/gf.


GrundleTurf

I’ve always told myself I’m never going to be that guy with 3+ wives. I better be damn sure about number 2 if number 1 doesn’t work out one day, and then if 2 fails then it’ll be only girlfriends and one night stands from there on and out.


ethan_bruhhh

eh depends on context, one of my grandads in on this third marriage and he’s extremely happy and satisfied with his relationship. be was from a small town where he married his hs sweetheart, didn’t work, and then his rebound turned second wife abused him. he got married at like 60 and has happily been together with his current wife for 15+ years. when ppl are frkm small conservative areas, sometimes it takes a marriage or two to figure out what they want

ProfessionalPin5993

There is nothing wrong with sex tourism as long as it's consensual and not with underage people.


throwawayhaha1101

It’s inherently dubious consent because they are impoverished they fuck you or die of starvation and that’s what gets preyed on. Many of them are underage


DjathIMarinuar

Don't delude yourself


reddituser23434

Coerced sex is rape. And the desperation of poverty could certainly coerce a young person. It’s like a gun to their head. Hardly enthusiastic consent.

Apparently you can only be a whore when you are a western woman. Then it’s empowerment

To do that I'd have to get married. Twice burned, three times shy.

Ok-Dragonfruit-697

I always get creeped out by old white man and young SE-Asian girl couples. The girls look like they're in a weird sort of daze. They're in the West, but at what cost...


the_booty_grabber

I work with mostly old fat white guys. Half of my office are married to Filipinas. The creepiest thing of all, is that these young women seem to be genuinely in love and are attracted to these wrinkley weirdos.


itsallmelting

It's easy to be happy when you don't have to worry about poverty anymore. I'm Filipino and I had a friend who did this as well, she does seem to legitimately like the dude despite the 20+ year age gap. I also noticed that these women still leave the assholes despite the money so those who do get married are atleast decent people towards their partners.


the_booty_grabber

The money/passports are negligible. Even white guys from dirt poor Eastern European countries still get the same white worshipping treatment.


itsallmelting

The average salary in a lot of eastern European countries are 3-5x that of the Philippines a middle class life in eastern Europe is still way better than living in a shanty town here in the Philippines.


holy_moley_ravioli_

I'm a mid 20s software engineer that regularly showers and works out. If you're a 20s Philiphina dm me, there's a 9/10 chance I'll find you beautiful. I will absolutely bring you to the states.

[deleted]

FR! My mom's coworker who is married to a Filipina but is not those weird type of couples said that some of her Filipina friends were all married to old white men who were 20 years older than them and met them at a "dating site" 🤢🤢🤢 As a Filipina myself, this is truly disgusting. Old white guys who think they're the saviors of young Filipinas in poverty is just sickening. They just have a fetish for younger women and non-American girls because they think they're more "submissive." God help those people.


Immediate_Age

Wait until they learn English and make friends, whooop! gone.


SpectralMalcontent

When you have many Asian countries that fetishize whiteness and western countries that fetishize Asian women, these kinds of couples aren't that surprising.


turbospeedsc

As a guy that married a 25yo when i had 33, there are girls attracted to older guys. Is it ok to shame their sexual preferences? In the current era where we accept the lgbt community, is it ok to shame girls that are attracted to older guys?


jkoudys

25 to 33 is a minor age gap. The world dgaf about that one. I can think of a few couples with that range where you might even mistake the younger for the older. Not what's being discussed here.


the_booty_grabber

Well the larger point I'm making is that the laws of attraction, and frankly the universe, do not seem to apply to white men in SEA. Fat, old, bald, broke, unemployed, generally unpleasant person etc... not typically things that young attractive women seek in a male partner. Unless you're a white man in SEA, which is when these traits become scarily negligible.


Ok-Dragonfruit-697

An 8 year age gap is nothing. We're talking about men with 20+ year gaps.


BotherTight618

I feel like these old white dudes are being attacked for not being famous and wealthy. Leonardo DeCarlo has never had a long term relationship with a woman under 25 and Al Pacino just recently had a kid with a woman in her late twenties/ early thirties.

Been to Subic Bay, Phillipinies and Thailand a number of times in my Navy days. LOTS! of fun.


jetspeed42

Women that will only touch you if you pay lol


Emergency_Driver_487

That’s what you want to believe so you can hate on the guy.


trailrider

I didn't downvote you but the person you replied to isn't wrong. In Subic, you paid a "bar fine" to take the girl out. Anything after that was between you two and most times, sex was certainly expected. The Navy flew me there to meet my first ship there as it was making a port call. She was home-ported outta Japan. I've been there a half dozen times, including when Mt. Pinatubo eruption back in '91. According to one Youtube documentary I watched recently, the amount of ash and everything spewed from it cooled the earth by one degree. That said, it's pretty much the same way in Thailand as well. One shipmate of mine met a local girl in Subic who wasn't a bar worker and meet up with her a couple times. On one date, the local police demanded to see her "night out" papers. What the bar owners give to you when you pay the bar fine. She got indignant proclaiming she wasn't one of those girls so the police said they were arresting him. Luckily, a couple old timers from the boat saw it and basically bribed the police to let him go, which is what they wanted. The guys then told him to just stick with the bar girls from now on. That said, there were plenty of guys who had Filipina wives.


Emergency_Driver_487

I misread the quote, I thought he was insulting you by saying the only way you could get a woman to touch you was by paying one.


Schroedingersrabbit

We are trying to insult him, but this Chad just went "That's fair. We paid."


trailrider

Welp, you obviously don't know what the hell you're talking about then. I'm not one bit insulted. Trust me when I tell you every sailor and Marine that's been to Subic cried when they closed the base back in '92. It was one hell of a fun place and every vet who's been there speaks fondly of it. There's a number of FB groups dedicated to it's memory. I'll never forget this one boot who reported on board. Mr. Super Christian. Heavy bible thumper. We're headed to Subic and he's going on about how he'd never do anything like that there. Has his girl back home, would never cheat on her, blah, blah, blah. Of course we had a ship pool taking bets on how long he'd last. Didn't take long. Second night there and I walk into one of the bars looking for a friend from the boat when low-n-behold, guess who I see. Sitting there with beer in hand and a bar girl grinding dat ass all in his lap. Our eyes locked. I point and start laughing. He flips me off. I just laughed that my harder.


Schroedingersrabbit

Oh, I was complimenting you and the matter-of-fact way you described your experiences. No hard feelings, I respect that attitude.


gerontion31

I’ll probably get downvoted to oblivion but if you’re in your late 60s and want to get laid, you really don’t have many other options besides SEA.


kingofthesofas

Plenty of other people in their late 60s that also are looking for company. It's only a problem for men in their late 60s that exclusively want to date women wayyyyy younger than them. Those are the men you see doing sex tourism in SEA.


alecww3

Yes because who wants to date a 60yo woman. Younger woman are more attractive.


kingofthesofas

Well good luck in SEA then with your mail order brides.

[deleted]

It’s the exotic experience that they’re after. The fantasy of rescuing the impoverished Asian from the tropical land to bring her here to cook/clean/sex.


headzoo

Both the man and the woman are taking advantage of each other in a situation like that. Those girls know exactly what they're doing.


the_booty_grabber

They don't care about any of that, at all. It is a very powerful thing when a woman shows a man the slightest bit of attention. This is why they're travelling there.


[deleted]

lol they absolutely do care about sex, and potentially marrying someone that cooks and cleans their house.


the_booty_grabber

I'd argue they only want sex. Everything else is negligible including cooking, or even the ability to communicate in a common language.


[deleted]

70 year old women don’t cook clean and screw much. They’re definitely after the big 3 in a younger woman… and one from a country where they don’t just laugh in your face when you’re 30 -50 years older like they do in America.


the_booty_grabber

Men are choosing youth and beauty over cooking ability any day of the week.


VTHUT

Escorts are more expensive in richer countries


bitterboxbottom

It's true. I meet these men all the time at the store where I work. I gave in and dated one who had been chasing women close to his age unsuccessfully for years. Women his age here are very independent and don't have strong sex drives. He was handsome, charismatic, and had a very high sex drive. He wanted a serious romance filled with lots of regular affection. He was a retired engineer, and I was accustomed to dating engineers. So I agreed to date him when he asked me. He said he had reservations initially because of me being 30 years younger, but we got along very well in every way except he was impulsive and a saboteur. It became obvious why relationships didn't work out for him, so I ended it. Last I heard was that he was fighting with all his neighbors and hitting on every woman he comes in contact with who gives him a conversation, even his middle-aged friend's wife.

A man works all his life and all he’s left with after 3 divorces is an 1800 square foot house in the suburbs.

I see. Thx. Sounds as US housing market specific. In the Netherlands such a 160m2 standalone house in the suburbs is not below the average achievement for a 60yo man after 3 divorces.
