Every start is very difficult but NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER!!! (my Grandmother said)

August 2007 I was very sad. Life is difficult in Cambodia.
Other girls are happy but not me.

So what can I do???

How to find a nice, serious, good man for to marry?
My relative is married with a foreigner. So I was thinking by myself.
Why not try.

The problem was that my family is very poor and I worked in a Garment Factory for 50 US Dollar a month. It was the hell to work there. Many girls got sick after a short time.

So I talked to my relative who is married to a foreigner and asked her for help.
She promised to help me.

Now I am going to school and learn more English. I also learn how to use a computer.
My teacher said: Learning by doing and that's what I do now. Learn to write and use this blog.

On the Internet I put my photo on a website where men are looking for girls and girls are looking for men.

About this experience I wrote another time.

Most of the experience was negative but not all. So I focus on the good things, good people.

Specially to one man I have to say thank you. His name is IVAN and he gave me a lot of good advice.

There are many misunderstandings between Western and Asian culture and relationships.

In Cambodia when a woman meet a man and they go out for the first time never the
woman pay for the dinner EVEN she also has her own income.
When a man met a woman a few times the way he show her that he really like her
is to give a gift to her.

If a man telling a woman/girl that he like her so much but he never give her
anything (gift) no woman would believe him.

If a man telling a woman many times that he like/love her so much and want live
with her together. If he never gave her a gift before she never would
believe and and (of course!) never would live with him.

Now on the Internet if a man ask a woman if she want come and live with him. Why
do (some!) Western man think that a woman see them as serious if
they never showed it to the woman?

This men have no problem to invite a girl to a dinner which cost them (example)
50 US Dollar. They would not think that the girl only go out with them because
she want have a free dinner.

Now on the Internet (some) men even write in their profile that they hate it
when a girl ask for money and see her as not serious. We are talking here about
small money!
I am not talking about a girl which ask at beginning of the relationship for money.
I am talking about a man who know a girl very much and would like to be together
with her.

If you think that I am not right about this it would be interesting if you copy
and give this to a few other asian girls and ask for their opinion.

One mire thing
Of course a girl (which is serious) would never ask a man if he want that she
come to him. He have to ask her VERY clear (question) if she like to be with him.
A girl also would NEVER ask a man if he want to marry her. She has to wait that
he ask.

I believe what I wrote is MOST IMPORTANT if you are serious and want to be
engaged in the future.

I hope I wrote (with the help of a translator) clearly how Asian woman AND ME
are thinking about this.


So I ask you that you please ONLY write me back if you want a serious relationship.

Thank you very much for reading my letter.
