Have to totally agree with you on the money thing. Most of the street kids I fostered over the years where from very rich families. All of them were neglected. Many psychologically abused.
I raised 3 children of my own, with little money, and absolutely no support from either their father,(my ex husband), or my family, or his.
We were so poor at times that I even recycled and remade their clothes over and over again. I worked sometimes 20 hour days, and in their waking hours they were either with me or at school, and most importantly they knew, without reservation, that they were loved and valued as people.
All three not only turned out fine caring and compassionate people, but have been through college, are successful in their chosen fields, and are great managers of money, and are in loving relationships.
Money is not the issue. It is the degree and quality of care thst is important.
Chinese is supposed to be the most difficult language because of all the intonations in it. The way the world is going though, in the not to distant future, people will have to have some Chinese in order to trade, if nothing else.
This thread and poll really shocked me and I am rarely shocked by anything these days.
I just couldn't believe how many people were so closed minded that they were not willing to learn another person's language in order to communicate with them to have a relationship.
More than twice as many people in the world speak mandarin Chinese than any other language. I don't see why anyone would not want to communicate with such a huge proportion of the world's population.

All illegals have their uses in all parts of society at all levels. If ther wasn't a use, even a need for them in society, then they wouldn't exist as illegal aliens. They would either be legal, or not be there at all.
Not sure whom you were refering to there, since no quote was used, but I was refering to both men and women scamming other men and women, as either men or women.
Just take it as read that 75% of the women who contact you, will be scammers. You will recognise them after a while.
I know that this is so different from everything else in life, in that, normally if you want something, you just go out and get it, work for it, or buy it, and you have it. Love is different.
You can't buy it, no matter how hard you work at it, it doesn't arrive, and you cant just go out and get it, because it is not exactly lying about waiting for you.
Patience is the key..... You have to wait for it to come to you.
Sometimes that takes a few weeks or months, and for some it takes years, or a lifetime, but you won't have it until it just jumps up and hits you one day.
The advice the others on here are giving you, is good advice. You will meet some genuinely lovely women here in the forums, who are looking, and waiting , just like you. One of them might even grow on you because you will be seeing her for who she is, and not as some e-mailer who is out to take you to the cleaners, and who knows, love might arrive sooner than you think.
You are describig a scammer here, and scamming is a business. People who do this are not genuine, are not looking for partners, or a relationship, just your money, by any means they can get it.....
They will tell you anything.........
Most of them are in reationships or married to other scammers, and often live in scammer communities in many parts of the world.
We are evolving all the time. Every new generation gets smarter, has the capacity to know more and use that to good or whatever they decide, but they still have it.
Those who who are really into learning, enhance the capabilities of every future generation, to progress in science, or technology or even maybe one day to help do something that really saves this planet for even more generations.
I think that understanding is the key to why we are here. The more we understand, the nearer we get to why we might ultimately be here, or even how we came to be here.
Sounds like it is control. He has control issues. You said he shies away or wriggles out of the dates you set up, but then turns up when it suits him....... Very telling that......
I also think that you like the fact you have found someone to study. It makes the whole scenario more interesting, and gives your life a bit of drama, (and I am fully expecting you to deny these theories too, as you did all the others).
I'd agree with the men though. He is getting something he wants from you, but he doesn't want you, except for what you are giving him.
As good as it gets. Jack Nicholson. I loved that film because weird and different as he was, pretender, old man trying to be young, O C D, thought he was "it", everything he said and did, I have dated every version of him in that film so far.
It made me laugh so much. I thought he was wonderful in it and whoever wrote it had very real talent.
I just like being the way I am. I like being sensible, and being a tryer in life, and getting on with things despite everything that happened, most of which would have killed lesser people. I like being capable and strong and dependable, and being there for those who really need me.
None of these traits are heroic, just ordinary, even if people have them sometimes in different measures or ratios, so that is why I don't believe in one personality being better than another.

RE: GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER
I already dated and did bring a black man home to meet my family. Everyone liked and accepted him.
