I think it's cause they are allowed so few children that girl babies are just ... ummm fewer?  So now there is an abundance of men here, and they need wives.  Very common.  I don't understand it, but then I'm 42 and not married.  Can I go to the Phillipines and get a husband?

I hear that it's MIGHTY easy to get snatched up and sold into sexual slavery in those parts.

Then again, for some folks, that could also be an incentive for buying the ticket.

Basically, he’s a twenty-five year old virgin, deluded enough to think that some pretty young thing is going to be ABSOLUTELY CAPTIVATED…..SWEPT AWAY by his “special” qualities


One of my staff was like this - a really nice bloke, but inept with girls. Like you, I'd even thought of fixing him up with a sexy commercial deal just to give him confidence.

I felt so sorry for him and it looked as if he'd never get there - like Lawrence.

But he did. It took time, about 5 years, but eventually he met a really great girl (no morbidly obese, ECW-watching, mouth-breather tail she) and now, a couple of years later, they're to be married next year and bless him, he's fixing the wedding in romantic Italy!

So it can happen, without help.

A few years learning social behavior that he didn't learn at a younger age, and more interaction to practice these new skills, and he won't have these problems anymore.

Status: offline 		It's good to know that there are resources meant to assist people, like Lawrence, who suffer from an inability to effectively and successfully socialize.

At times, my own personal fear is that people like Lawrence could possibly end up killing themselves or going "postal" at work because of some knawing feeling of alienation from "the crowd".

For the most part, I blame technology and shitty, latch-key parenting.  Without the proper catalyst, some kids might think that adopting basic socialization skills is unnecessary......obsolete, even.  "Gosh.....who needs real friends when I've got, like, over sixty pals on Facebook!?"
 
I can't tell you how many young men (males seem to fall into this vicious pattern more than females) I know, that spend seven and eight hours a day playing War-Craft, and watching "anime" films, instead of  taking neighborhood jogs, or asking girls (or guys) out on dates.

The popularity of the Internet is just going to exacerbate the problem.  Soon enough, flesh and blood sexuality will fade into quaint desuetude, and we'll all just get our "jollies" through Demolition-Man style, "virtual-sex helmets."  Ha!  What a bleak, horrible future!  Call me a bit of a Neo-Luddite, but if we did away with the internet and all "non-edifying" t.v. programming, our nation's obesity epidemic would also plummet.

Don't blame the mothers. Do blame fathers who abandon their kids. Men learn how to relate to other men and to women by modeling themselves on their fathers. No father in the picture, no way to learn this if you're not really good at picking up unspoken cues.

I encouraged my son to make friends with boys who had involved fathers. And I asked those men to please correct him and make him do chores with their own sons. These days he has The Man to model on, but if I hadn't asked all the good men I know to please include him, then he might be behind also.

Additionally, Aspergers, high functioning autism, undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities, untreated ADD, untreated mood disorders etc all can play a role. Boys like this gravitate to video games and online because they can't connect in person, the ones who can connect in person do some online, some gaming in private rooms against friends, some time playing sports, some time with their girlfriends. They're well balanced. The misfits who aren't told how and where to get help, and what help is needed, are the ones who give up and live online in their mother's basement.

1) Ironic, considering you're on an Internet forum.
2) I've known plenty of "latch key" folks with fine interpersonal skills.

While a bunch of under-parented, MySpace addicted young-un's might not feel any real hazardous effects from their habits and surroundings, there will always be a minority (in this case, a rather sizeable one) who just "don't get it".

You know.....I've actually read about a time in history where people went out of their way to be social creatures.

**************************************************

How sad....
What we dont realize is what happens in other parts of your own city/State/country.................
 
Man (happens to be American military) + Korean wife = 2 children
Korean wife dies.
Son # 2 has terrible accident so...
Man returns to Korea for Korean wife # 2
Wife #2 is caretaker/maid/nurse/sole support of son #2
Man cherishes Korean wife
but is absent husband and father......
Korean wife is slave??  BDSM or just slave?
 
Korean wife # 2 is definately lonely, grabs at control ...
I cannot help but pity her plight.....
her journey is just different than mine.

Flawless!

Just when I thought that I was the only person in America who had seen the film!  It's an underrated movie if you ask me.  Dinero learns valuable life lessons through "singing-lessons" with a "unique" music instructor.  I saw it when I was 20, and thought to myself, "That's a really good flick."  Too bad that nobody ever watches it.


LOVE That movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
