She told us she is getting 2 or 3 hundred emails a day and skims through to pick about 12 she will answer. About a dozen men have traveled to the Philippines to meet her, many offering all
kinds of stuff...money, even a car. She always has a chaperone and will accept nothing that is offered.
She is not for sale. She is looking for an honorable man...with respect...one with a great heart who will not try to buy her. So far she has come up empty, despite getting over 15,000 emails.
We are having a single friend here as a guest in April. He is a great man with a heart of gold.
We are going to make an introduction. I am thinking she will be off the market the day we make
the introduction...time will tell.
Interesting that there have been no additional postings, nor anyone asking how to meet her. Perhaps the line, "She's a go-slow girl looking for a serious relationship leading to marriage" turned everyone off.
Here are the problems I see with this case:
1. She's getting 200+ emails a day. That's over a thousand a week and you said over 15,000 in total! I don't know anyone who ever got hit-up nearly that much on one dating site. Who wants to compete with thousands. I could get that back in USA and some of the girls there are at least better looking.
2. She's picking 12 out of 200+ to answer each day. That's 6% or less. Odds are not good that she will even answer a letter.
3. What exactly is an "honorable man...with respect...one with a great heart who will not try to buy her". I know several guys who are like all that. So it seems odd that out of nearly a dozen, none met that simple hurdle.
4. She has to be constantly chaperoned. Now if a girl is a virgin, that's fine and can be respected and honored until after marriage. But before getting married to someone, I think it would be wise to invest plenty of private dating time to get to know the real her. If that is not possible (she always needs to be in presence of third party), then that's a serious barrier. We are not in the 1800s here
5. When someone is billed as 'attractive', a lot depends on the interpreter. We all have our own tastes. So it's hard to be interested in someone before seeing their images at least. Similarly, 'intelligent' is subject to interpretation. And well-educated means what (which schools and degrees)?
6. Last but far from least, he said, "We are having a single friend here as a guest in April. He is a great man with a heart of gold. We are going to make an introduction. I am thinking she will be off the market the day we make the introduction" So it sounds like he's got her lined-up with the right guy already. The post is for information purposes only. He's not offering a chance to others here on the forum.
First, you are quite correct, I am NOT offering her info. We do have an introduction planned after all! She does not NEED a chaperone, she chooses to have one. She figures that is smart when she is meeting men she does not know...and yes...a virgin.
And attractive? I would say so, but petite...5'4"...of course that is subjective, but she 100%
has eyes to die for...with fine features...rather Spanish/Penelope Cruz look I would say.
She did not plan on getting 100s of emails...I did see on day's ...holy crap...of course she can't answer them all.
So..she has concluded that a dating site is not a good route...so? She has handled it pretty well.
I would say there is a class issue here too. Really poor girls often seem easily dazzled.
Men think they can wave some money and they will fold...and often do.
Now in her case, I do not know her exact status except that she is gong to a private college and manages multiple condos that her auntie owns (but is out of the area), so that tells me she is middle class at any rate...parents have a car for example...little details that tell me a lot.
Dave's point about her being seriously interested marriage and hence of little interest
may have some cred to it.
My point was not to be her promoter, but to use her as an example of how quite desirable
girls may not find it easy to meet one they want, and that against the odds, one man that understands what in the hello is going on can swoop in and win the prize of a lifetime.
I have seen this happen repeatedly and it happened to me.
Looks? No, I am not going to post her pic, but I am probably thought of as picky
by men who have long known me, and she would be some mens' 9 and other mens' 7, but she is certainly attractive to a great many men...most I would say...
She does not want any man under 30 and could go up to 50s, the point being, that the chance of a 40 year old men sitting in the USA getting a girl like this is about ZIP,
and yet they would often pick her apart from a distance.
...and no, I did not get any mail about her. She is graduating in a few months with honors from La Salle U with a Business degree.
