There's a lot of truth in many of the other things you mention.
I suggest that bars, and perhaps even internet cafe's may well attract customers who do not seek a normal working life.

No offence, this is my own personal experience. Your experience is obviously significantly different.
It should be that I can learn form you and that you can learn from me.
So you are saying women who frequent bars and pc shops don't reach your standards....interesting.

A lot of the members here met there wives through the internet..me included.

Had it been the olden days we'd would of probably met in what was deemed normal of the day. Probably the way most long time married British/Filipina did. Perhaps have a holiday, meet the lady of your dreams then endless letter writing etc etc.

Times have changed...life moves much quickly now.

Lets not rubbish the for some, unknown.
