Maybe a strange first post or indeed a strange issue !?
Firstly thanks for allowing my membership and hello to all .
Briefly, I'm 52 , live in Scotland , self employed of 2 small businesses and have traveled to Asia many time in particular Thailand and more recently Vietnam . i intend to live mainly in Saigon or Bangkok or initially stay a long time with my girlfriend .
i met a relatively young Vietnamese girl last year and she's 34 and i am pretty shocked at the looks , comments and out right rudeness of prejudiced people . I look my age or slightly younger,I'm not in bad shape , she is quite beautiful and does look younger than her years , but the level of abuse and attention i'm finding even in Thailand or Vietnam is quite shocking and wondered how other people deal with this ? I even had an EX friend who suggested it was all money orientated or she was a prostitute! (ex friend ejected !) I am aware of the certain stigma and stereotypical views but how do couples in similar situations cope with this ? Thanks in advance for any opinions and or advance ,
cheers,
Glenn.
