The dedication it would've taken to get Geoffrey's physique is hard to imagine, though now that he already has it and is disliked, there's nowhere to improve for the court of public opinion. At least the disdain for Ed would probably be diluted a bit with respect if he got in shape. I was just thinking a haircut and a shave but yeah, maybe some gym time.

From a Psychology Today article The phrase to "save face" has been around a long time. It's been part of English vernacular since the 19th century. The concept is a core social value in Asian cultures, among others. The meaning has remained stable across time. Saving Face signifies a desire—or defines a strategy—to avoid humiliation or embarrassment, to maintain dignity or preserve reputation. Rose did it out of respect to her elder boyfriend so the vendor wouldn't think he was too stupid to know the currency.... Twenty lashes for me.

Something like 20-25% of all K-1 visas issued worldwide are issued but the US embassy in the Philippines. Vietnam is a very, very distant second. I think, off the top of my head, we have had 90 day fiance contestants from all of these 15 countries except Vietnam, China, and Canada. My guess is that a Canadian + American couple would be too boring for the show. And I also think a lot of the Vietnamese and Chinese K-1 visa holders marry Vietnamese-Americans and Chinese-Americans, so there's less "culture clash" in the relationship and that makes such couples less interesting. Yes, most people that apply for the fiance visa are from the country of the person they are bringing over and are 100% committed to getting married. This show is interesting because of the inevitable culture clash conflict. Phone plans are very cheap in the Phillipines. Most people get a prepaid phone card. Internet is super duper slow. I think it's the fast internet that makes phone plans in the US so $$$. Rose may have a phone, but it's not like she's paying for high speed internet, which would be more than she makes a month. She probably has to go to internet cafes to use the internet and pay more for that. Is Yolanda for real?

Well don't be surprised like much of the world the cell phone is a basic necessity now for communication and some extent paying digitally. and they are transitioning from pay as you go relatively cheaply with friends and family sending "load" or data money digitally to the phone to more unlimited plans that most Americans I think have. Well they blurred the Tide because Tide didn't pay. But her sister's store would sell single use packets to the neighborhood. While poor the nation is very brand name concious. Living on a mattress with a small room and a pale to flush the toilet is the lower middle class.

And instead of flying across the world and/or sending $5000 worth of presents, use it on plastic surgery I still can't believe that he had somebody marry him and then he cheated on her. He is so dirty looking, he is repulsive. As stated above, it's a congenital difference in his spine and other parts. So I hate to be insensitive but I'm wondering why he doesn't focus his attn on mtg a woman w a disability or congenital difference. Wouldn't he feel less "unattractive" if he stopped measuring himself against typical-bodied ppl? Wouldn't he feel less judged and more confident? I know he wants the young hottie, as a lot of ppl do (especially men). But is it worth the insecurity and nagging feeling you're just paying for someone to who is out of your league to be with you? I'm not saying being typical-bodied means a person is better. I'm just saying this based on what he has shared about not feeling good enough for her. There are dating sites for ppl w/ physical differences. There are support groups. There are drs offices and physical therapy centers. Plus just real life. He has never encountered anyone w/ a physical difference he was attracted to? 3 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107050-s04e03-risky-business/page/8/#findComment-5995280

They're on a TV show that requires them to meet at the airport for dramatic effect. 2. The Americans on this show are not "suave" and smooth enough to know they will make a better impression after a nap. 3. (Perhaps most importantly). The Americans on this show are not sophisticated international travelers and could easily run into difficulty getting from international airport to their hotel alone. Years ago, oil companies flying workers into airports in Nigeria used to take extreme security measures so that their workers didn't get kidnapped at the airport. Like the workers were told "A Nigerian contact will greet you holding a sign with your name on it, but don't go with him unless he also says this secret password, so you can be sure your contact wasn't murdered by thugs who stole his sign with your name on it so they could greet you at the airport and kidnap you." I recall meeting an Australian guy who worked for DHL in Nigeria who said "If you don't have someone to meet you at Lagos airport, you're f*cked." I've only taken a taxi from Benin to Lagos Airport, not from Lagos Airport, but it would be terrifying for a white American redneck lady to just land there and try to get a taxi on her own to the hotel. At a minimum, she'd want a hotel car/shuttle to pick her up. But some dude could see her in the arrivals hall and say "Your hotel car is this way, follow me" and then she'd end up getting fleeced/robbed. Moscow and Manila airports also aren't free from scammers and dodgy characters. These naive, socially inept Americans who are prepared to propose marriage to people they haven't met need a lot of handholding should not be allowed out of foreign airports alone. Heck, even James Bond had an attempt made on him at the Kingston, Jamaica, airport, ca. 1962! Heh.

She is frightfully thin but she has fabulous skin and hair that I can tell from the TV screen. Her dad was shown as a tricycle taxi driver and her sister had the small place and store. As long as Rose isn't something like a meth addict someone in her extended family will normally make room. And if not for her Prince would be taken in. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107050-s04e03-risky-business/page/8/#findComment-5995425
MrsBug March 11, 2020 Share March 11, 2020 Ed creeped me outside when he showed off the lace lingerie he was bringing as a gift. Ugh, gross!! Also the girly pics all over his walls are pathetic for a man his age. I would be disgusted if a man i was meeting for the first time offered me such a "gift". It is of absolutely no use to her, it is all for eds own sick enjoyment. But maybe she can sell it or use to entice a man who is worthy of her time. THAT would be poetic justice if she used it to find a new man, lol. I agree that ed is no chick magnet but in fact is a chick maggot. Can we also agree that ash is not a relationship coach but instead is more like relationship roach? 1 5 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107050-s04e03-risky-business/page/8/#findComment-5995501
