The god-fearing type may be hard to come by nowadays in the westerner breed.
Tho' if you are open to nikah siri you may have an opening in JaTeng... I know a nice bloke who was considering adding a few wives.:whistle:

I don't know about the 'fear God' thing
but gentle hearted, if the person you date is not a westerner, will you not look for it?

A nice thought but not always true. There are divides in various attitudes as well. Sometimes better, sometimes not.
Abigail is looking for a kind hearted westerner. Lots of them about but she may have more of a problem with the god fearing requirement.

To get an idea of the man, see if he opens the door for you on the first date.
A gentleman always will and continues to do so after marriage.
It was my parents golden wedding (50th) last Saturday. My father stills does so. Now maybe that's crap but I was brought up to be chivalrous and it sticks.
Even at my worst behaviour as a drunken, leather clad, bonking biker, I remained gallant and courteous. I was the poshest hooligan for miles.

Once You start something all kinds of things must be considered by both parties, the longer it goes, the more one has to open his mind to all scenarios.
Word dating means something right ? (unless one is looking for a thrill/flirt, then You better start batmobilling asap) So one must make choices.

But I was dead serious about the date that leads to serious relationship. Not just playing head games. so if we consider the true intention of the man towards a women on that first, second or a third date.
She might have clue or feel if he is capable to comprehend the culture and/or religion factors that are important to continue the relationship/dating thing.
If not, she has a chance to batmobille before is too late and say goodbye.

Definition of ¨batmobilling¨ wich a jargon but also a figure of speech that one has the chance to escape the relationship before is too late.

This is the real original definition version:
¨Putting up an emotional shield just as a relationship enters that intimate, vulnerable stage. Refers to the retractable armor covering the Batmobile¨

I had no idea about that the film had had an impact on language. It's not like it's star trek you know. :)

I have had a few serious relationshits and some shit relationships as well but most were just bonks. That was one advantage of being a biker, nothing serious is expected of you.

Fred You and I are very far apart about the dating thing.
I am beyond the point of flirting or playing head games to try to impress one another.
Plus I do not drink for 20 years already so I am out of the bar hangout scene.
If I go to the Bar is only to see The Bundesliga or Premiere liege, and I drink milk or orange juice without the driver and the screwing thing.

then afterwords just go with the flow and see what happens.

I stopped drinking as well. It was for about 10 years as I was driving every day but started again towards the end of a really bad relationship with an old girlfriend I lovingly call 'the bitch'.
<self deleted filthy stuff>
I stopped all of that (Deleted stuff above) after I met my wife so I'm a good boy now.
Odd as it seems. I feel I'm all the better for not doing that any more. Besides, I'm 47 now so I would probably have died of a heart attack anyway.
I'm also away from the bars. Not that there are many here anyway but I'm not bothered. I may be going to KL at the end of next month but I won't bother with so much as a coke in a bar. I will probably arrange to meet a lass I know over there but she is just a friend and we have never touched each other in a naughty way.
I feel better for it and I know it's a better way to live.

So I'll have to refuse all the PM offers I get for casual sex from the ladies on the forum. Sorry girls. I know you all wanted the chance to experience me but I must refuse. :bounce:

PS - To the bloke who wanted me. Sorry I'm not that way but I will keep your name secret. Not that I can speak French anyway.

You´ll have to excuse some expats here, Abigail, who think that Indonesia is nothing more than a homogenous Javanese kampung writ-large. Some, you see, are under the impression that Indonesia is a "Moslem" country, and that a Muslim man telling a Christian woman that she should convert so that she´ll become an illigitimate second, third or fourth wife is amusing and inoffensive.

There is no fun. It never meant to be fun.
Also it was not meant to be funny.
Dating should be fun for both parties. But advices or opinions on the matter should not.
I do not hang around in personal threads. I answered only because it was serious question brought up in the opening post.
So I have tried to stay on the subject and be serious about.

:), if i may have an opinion, it's normal for everyone to expect a perfect match and apply some criteria for their future husband or wife, lol...it's also not a sin to search for an online date or 'biro jodoh' my aunt met her husband from match.com and they live happily until now, with two cute sons... of course it's not always work well, depends on many factors, me myself always dreaming for a guy who has a Channing Tatum's face with Collin Farrel's hair and body, robinhood's heart and as religious as Aa Gym, but since i realized that it's so hard to find, i started to learn not to always push my ideal on anything, so i let go some of those criteria and keep the most important and principal for me :) good luck and don't give up, ms. abigail, :hug:trust me you will find your Mr.Right, as right as your preferences, marriage is about forever, don't pick random guys for any reason

Ms ANNE BANDUNG, in my humble opinion NOTHING IS FOREVER not even our life (jiwa/nyawa) marriage is no different. Love may be forever but love doesn't have to be bond as marriage. Marriage is COMMITMENT between two people it can't b e forever since you will never have control on one another....

:) of course there would be nothing last forever, though im not really sure about what the meaning of "FOREVER" for everyone is, i consider "forever" as the times that we lived before we finally die and got buried, and YES, i want my marriage someday to be lasts FOREVER, and i will do my own efforts to reach that goal, YES, everyone has a right to define what is the meaning of marriage according their opinion, and there's nothing wrong to have a different opinion and point of view towards that thing :), as long as we don't push our personal thought to the others to make them think like our own way...

fear God is not the same as fear 'copet' or 'maling'.. fear God also is not merely doing rituals but it's what u really feel from ur heart that u don't want to rise God's wrath because u love Him and u do all He wants because u don't want to hurt Him. This really has connection with finding soulmate since anyone who has this kind of heart he will try his best not to hurt his spouse and be faithful until the end of time.

just read the Bible then u'll find the answer.. He considers me as the apple of His eyes. i've been through miracles in my life that i can't say that He's not paying attention to me. even more than attention, He's saved my soul..

I don´t know if you´ve heard, but it´s now pretty much an open secret that the Bible, the New Testament, was altered and sanitized to make it coincide with the prophecies of the Old Testament. There is reason to think also that Jesus never claimed to be divine, and that he was nothing more than human, like all the prophets who preceeded him and like you and me. In the words (and music) of Jethro Tull´s Hymn 43 in their masterpiece Aqualung:


If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself
from the gory glory seekers who use His name in death.
Oh Jesus save me!"



Jethro Tull´s Aqualung: http://www.amazon.com/Aqualung-Jethro-Tull/dp/B00000GAIW

I gave you Jethro Tull earlier. Wasn´t that jocular enough?

Perhaps all this nonsence can be settled by the woman who started this thread if she can answer what priority she puts of the qualities she seeks. What is the priority of the following attributes and which are not important?

- Faith (god fearing)
- Foreign citizen (thus an easy exit from Indonesia)

i notice it could raise a conflict when we discuss about faith since it's a very sensitive issue so i suggest not to continue talking about it if the discussion gets to offend one party. all believers realize that they wouldn't have faith if God doesn't grant it to them and i thank God that He did it in me.

off course, im looking a foreigner since i like westerners' profile. but as for me, money is not as important as his behaviour because some expats in indo don't have good attitude although they live in indo in prosperity and i won't consider dating such man. uupss sorry... as a woman i have a right to select to whom i want date, right?!!

Faith does not guarantee a good soul as the lack of it does not preclude the possibility of that person being good but it makes a difference to the OP and that should be respected.
The lady has faith and is looking for a partner who is similarly enlightened.
I'm often told that westerners are considered better husbands by local lasses. I'm told we are more prone to showing love and appreciation for our wives than local blokes.
I recall one day, a friend was visiting and I wanted to give him some especially nice home made crackers the people next door produce. I asked my wife if she could pop over and buy a couple of bags. This took the form of a request and, of course, I used 'please' and 'thank you' as well as addressing her as 'sayang'.
When she popped out my mate was astonished. He just had no idea that's the way I talk to her. He explained local blokes just don't have that attitude to their wives. Perhaps that has more value to a lady than a bag of cash. (Except for prostitutes of course. :bounce:)

Perhaps that [respect] has more value to a lady than a bag of cash. (Except for prostitutes of course.)

In keeping with Rushing Doll's admonishment to speak up, I'm going to put in a kind word for ladies of the evening. Having sex for money is just a job, albeit a thankless, dangerous job, but just a job. We all do something for money, for survival. It does not define the worker as undeserving of respect when she goes home after work to her loved ones.

I suppose it's all down to why they do it.
I know a lass back in the UK who does it for fun and sees the cash as a bonus. Not my cup of tea but it's up to her. She's from Hull. Enough said. :whistle:
I have met some that do it because there is little choice. Again, not my idea of work but I can see it.
Some, I understand, do it to feed drug habits. Rough life.
Some are forced by other people. There was a big one in Sheffield (http://traffickingproject.blogspot.com/2008/02/human-trafficking-center-in-sheffield.html)(and other cities), UK a while ago with pimps using trafficked Thai lasses as pros. Rape by any other name.

What about the customers Fred? Demand creates a supply - no?
What do you think the percentage of male prostitutes is to the percentage of female prostitutes? The answer might say a lot?
You would not open a sweetie shop if no one ate sweets would you?
I don't like it either as it breeds a plethora of nasty evil activities which involves children, drugs, disease, violence and other tragedies. They say 1 in 3 married men visit so where does that leave the wives? I am asking all these questions out loud as I don't have the answers and look forward to hearing optional answers from the forum.

Of course it's supply and demand.
In my opinion, blokes who use pros are daft. Dodgy at best and death at worst. it's also a bit sad of them. I don't think I could get 'excited' in bed with one. Just seems like a serious turn off. I had a lot of friends in London's chinatown and, sometimes, used to walk through Soho. I was invited into many a 'peep show' and brothel by ladies who I could not have fancied if I was pissed out of my mind and had not had a roll for 10 years.
The use of kids as forced sex slaves is past comment save dick, blade, rusty, off and chop.
Married blokes that use these services need about the same.
Hi love, I;m home. By the way I caught AIDS from a tart I shagged last year and you and out new born are also going to die of it.

Your comments are noted. I just wanted to pick up on one thing and please anyone correct me if u feel the need. Your post suggests the 'gurrls" are not fanciable because of the nature of their profession. Its a documented fact that men are drawn initially to a woman by astetics firstly - human nature. I have seen some gorgeous women in the "windows" of Amsterdam and I believe Russian women are renouned for beauty............whatever the circumstances can you say that you refute astetics when they are in your face and your warty member still behaves?

I don't thing that having sex for money is inherently evil. Its our attitudes that make it so and define the behavior as illicit. If the moral hypocrisy were stripped away, and it were legal and regulated, perhaps the assumed associations with child molestation, drug abuse, transmission of disease and violent crime could be eliminated or minimized.

I have seen some pros in Asia that were seriously good looking. The Thai ones in the extreme but I felt no urge to go for them at all.
The London ones were just shagged out old tarts. Filthy and disgusting would be a kind way to describe them.
The very sight of that lot was enough for my bumpy burung to shrink to the size of a peanut but not so hard.
It is true that men are generally interested in good looking lasses but sometimes other factors are considered by the bird before it decides if it wants to nest. Mine never gets out of control of it's chances of going green and falling off are too great.

I never implied that having sex for money was inherently evil. I mean what is a marriage? many married people stay in relationships for money reasons whether sex is involved or not so its a form of prostitution I suppose. Thats all I have to say just now. :)

Ya "oldest profession" for a reason. There is that demand and there is the supply so whats at issue? For that reason to say guys who utilize pros are daft is daft. To each is own. If your balls are somewhat smaller than the average male human there isn't much you can do about it. You're probably borderline gay. If that isn't the case and you can't get it up for a beautiful woman pro or not, seeking a shrink instead of airing your problems in this forum is most in order. Go back to the UK.

If we eliminate the dives where Fred "meets" his hookers as being extremes, how would we classify the following:

1) You (a male) approach a woman in Aphrodites and ask her to join you for a drink.
2a) A rather delectable female approaches you (a male) in Burgundy and asks you to join her for a drink.
2b) A rather delectable female approaches you (a male) in Burgundy and asks you to buy her a drink.
3) You (a male) approach a woman in the library, chat her up and invite her out for dinner.
4) You (a female) approach a guy in Pondok Indah Mall, chat him up and invite him out for dinner.
5) Make up your own pickup scenario.

Homework: Fill in the rest of the stories and find a word in the dictionary that adequately describes each man and woman.

Now, where do we draw the line???

Faith does not guarantee a good soul as the lack of it does not preclude the possibility of that person being good but it makes a difference to the OP and that should be respected.
The lady has faith and is looking for a partner who is similarly enlightened.
I'm often told that westerners are considered better husbands by local lasses. I'm told we are more prone to showing love and appreciation for our wives than local blokes.
I recall one day, a friend was visiting and I wanted to give him some especially nice home made crackers the people next door produce. I asked my wife if she could pop over and buy a couple of bags. This took the form of a request and, of course, I used 'please' and 'thank you' as well as addressing her as 'sayang'.
When she popped out my mate was astonished. He just had no idea that's the way I talk to her. He explained local blokes just don't have that attitude to their wives. Perhaps that has more value to a lady than a bag of cash. (Except for prostitutes of course. :bounce:)

yeah maybe tht's one of the reasons why i like westerners. many of them know how to treat woman in gentle manner that is hard enough to be found in locals. but it's the condition when i get a good one.
some are bad even worse than locals, they only think about sex and don't want to have a commitment in their relationship. they also tend to be atheist that they don't need God and act as if they are their own god. it finally could create selfish in their mind and have no humility and grateful in their heart.

Abigail, it isnt fair if you think that Westerners always think about sex.
Mostly peoples think about sex, local, westerners including you (dont deny it) at least once. Sex is one of human basic need, like food, health and shelter.
About commitment, it depend with maturity level.. no matter local or westeners. I remember the reason why i broke up with my previous bf because he hasnt ready yet to commit, and he was an Indonesian rather to be player.
Atheism, it isnt fair to judge peoples based on what their belief, and being atheist doesnt make peoples selfish or have no humility, have you ever heard aboud humanism movement?
An many of them are atheist?
im not atheist, my relationship with my God is very personal.

THEY tell me I really am handsome.

In Canada I'm an old, short, white-haired smiley guy (real teeth), that is invisible to women, as you observe.

i never think an indonesian woman having date with westerner because of the money (i dunno maybe someone does...)...
hm...people have their own perception, maybe you look like a prince to her and you fall in love to each other...( falling in love is important ...as indonesians said, when you fall in love the world is just yours, you're the owner and other people just stop by...:) )
what I see in My Man is not about his money...
i fall in love with him because he has a warm heart and i find all i need in him...
we love each other,
and we want to spend our life together...:)
not for his money...

maybe white people has lighter skin tone than indonesian ( some indonesians ) so, they look more attractive to them...

4. Frustrated.
I think can't judge other people because the have different thought. There's so many people out there we never seen, don't look not even 1% of human who live and we took a conclusion because what we saw only bad side.

Again, I think that Davita made a fair and valid point in order to address and explain the phenomenon that you brought up earlier. There are many factors, of course, but it is undeniable that the disparities in wealth accounts for a significant part. It´s ok, there´s no need to get offended. It happens in other circumstances, in all countries. There is nothing surprising about women going after men who are more financially successful.

Nevertheless, if you, Tantori, think Davita is off the mark, let me ask you: what do you think explains the fact that many Indonesian women are attracted to these otherwise invisible men? And while we´re at it, since you opened the door to this conversation about invisible people, let me turn the table on you: how invisible or visible would you say the average Indonesian woman with the prevaliing educational and income levels be in the West?

I didn't make a comment about him being invisible in his country and suddenly being visible in Indonesia. What I was referring to was his question and hey..since English is not my first language, I might understood what he meant by "Indonesian women". Was he referring to "all" or "some" ?

You or Davita feel free to explain to me if you think I misunderstood it



Nevertheless, if you, Tantori, think Davita is off the mark, let me ask you: what do you think explains the fact that many Indonesian women are attracted to these otherwise invisible men?

First of all I don't think Indonesian women care if they invisible in their country.

some of them after their stupid money because they think they have the money
Some would be attracted to their physical appearance.
Some would like to have their companion, because they open minded.
Some would be genuinely interested in him the way he is.

At the end of the day it will depend on Western men how to deal with Indonesian women, since they are the center of attention in her country.
Whether taking the advantage or put off their negative thinking and respect what they are.



how invisible or visible would you say the average Indonesian woman with the prevaliing educational and income levels be in the West?

I tried to understand the question, correct me if I am wrong, was your question referring to Indonesian women who live abroad (West) ?

I believe, for some women, money is a factor but that's only some.
For others, it is the sight of something different or unusual. That can often be attractive.
I know one lass who was interested in having pale skinned babies. He opinion was that an indo baby was likely to have a better life. Maybe true.
I understand westerners have a reputation for looking after their wives better. Could well be a factor for some.

Whatever the reason(s), what is a fact is that white guys do enjoy an attractiveness they would not get in their own country so I'm not moaning. :)

Never mind, Tantori. I was just trying to get you to think more profoundly about things. Truth be told, I actually come down on your side. Sort of.

It wasn´t long ago when I was still a single man in Jakarta. It annoyed me that for many women, far too many for my liking and far too many more than in other coutries where I have lived, skin color trumped the man, money trumped the man. I am not particularly dark skinned, though many years of tanning and living in the tropics has made me acquire a copper tan which is increasingly permanent. On many occassions my non-Northern European looks were held against me, ironically by women who were darker-skinned than I. I still remember a time when I had reached a point of dispair at not being able to find a quality Indonesian woman whom I could proudly, whom I would want to call my girlfriend.

The greater point here is that there is a common thread to my experience and your comment about the invisible men. No matter how decrepit, how uncultured, how garishly he flaunts his wealth, or how ignorant of Indonesia the man is, there is far too many of your fellow Indonesian women for whom skin color and/or $$ trumps all other considerations. This phenomenon of otherwise invisible men becoming desired playboys in Indonesia is wholly the making of Indonesian women and Indonesian mores about skin color.

Curiosity....have you ever thought that you might hanged around in the wrong crowd?
When you socializing with Expat more than Indonesian, the chance to meet nice and not money oriented Indonesian women is little..
Who you met maybe they are pro and experienced with expats and some guys might end up and meet with same woman anyway. Don't blame them, it's what they do... suckling Westerners' money.

Back to my experienced five years ago, when I spent 26 years of my life in Indonesia, as far as I remember, I never had an experienced or even tried to think and looking people based on color skin or think money oriented. There was a time when slogan "cewek materialistic"/Materialistic girl/women very popular and to me it's such slap in the face when you got that name. It's like someone call you being racist.

I spent my school day in Bogor, went to college in Bandung, spent for 5 years over there, got jobs in Jakarta and spent there for 4 years, and I met, socialized with very nice and friendly Indonesian women. They are pretty, good quality body, polite and I would say their boyfriends was someone you wouldn't expected to be her boyfriend, it was like Beauty and the beast. They even had more money than their boyfriend. They didn't care as long as he has a good heart, hard work and not give up easily, and I tell you money, physical appearance and skin color was out of question.

So based on my experiences, I would like to say to all very handsome, clever, nice and rich Westerner out there, we are not all the same.:wink:

A nice thought but not always true. There are divides in various attitudes as well. Sometimes better, sometimes not.
Abigail is looking for a kind hearted westerner. Lots of them about but she may have more of a problem with the god fearing requirement.

To get an idea of the man, see if he opens the door for you on the first date.
A gentleman always will and continues to do so after marriage.
It was my parents golden wedding (50th) last Saturday. My father stills does so. Now maybe that's crap but I was brought up to be chivalrous and it sticks.
Even at my worst behaviour as a drunken, leather clad, bonking biker, I remained gallant and courteous. I was the poshest hooligan for miles.

Your dad opening the door for your mother is anything but crap , Fred I not only open the door for my wife but all woman if I'm handy, you have atoned for any miss deeds I'm sure, ( gallant&courteous) I like your father already without even knowing him,----- my wife and I are 12 years away from fifty, Best wishes to your parents, congrats !!!

If I am at the door before others and they are close behind I hold it open for anyone and appreciate it when they do the same for me be they women or men. It's not a point of being chivalrous. It's a matter of being thoughtful and courteous when one has the opportunity.

Rapists can be clever enough to open doors for women so it's a pretty silly gauge of the man. Ever heard of Ted Bundy, one of the most prolific serial sex offenders and murderers in history. He was very charming from many witnesses accounts, right up to the point when he disabled and raped then murdered them.

On the other side of the coin if a guy doesn't hold the door open this is again a lousy gauge deciding he isn't worthy of a womans time. It's shallow to think otherwise. Often people don't listen carefully to what another is saying. Most slobs hang themselves with their own words. Listen carefully ladies and if you smell bullshit call him on it. If he is forthright with his answers things might be ok even if you disagree with his opinion but if he begins to backtrack and attempts to worm his way out of what he said, bye bye is probably the best solution.

I like to just keep things simple. I have had an attraction to Asian things from a young age Art, history, women and I assume there are some Asian women that have the same attraction for Western things. Maybe opposites do attract or maybe there is just an feeling that can't be explained. If someone is looking for a special type of person, then rather than analyzing it to death and questioning the motives, why not just accept it and help if we can? I could talk all day on why I don't like the term "god fearing" but that wouldn't help the OP. So I will just wish her luck to find what she is really looking for.

This turned into a very interesting thread.

My opinion is in summary it doesnt matter where your from, what your beliefs or the colour of your skin each person is an individual and should be treated so until you can form an opinion about them. Everyone is an blank book when you meet them it is only when you meet them that you can start writing the chapters and see what kind of story it will be.

i don't care where u'r from and what u believe when i deal with people. but being a soulmate for me is a different thing. i have my right to determine what criteria that i wish to be in that person as my soulmate and nobody can judge since it's my personal business. i realize it's not easy to find God fearing person in this wicked world but i believe God and i also believe He's almighty and living God that is able to make me meet the right person at the right time as He plans for me. thanks for all comments

'God fearing' probably means you have something to hide. I was raised Catholic in Ireland and came across plenty of God fearing people who were total bastards. Who was it who said "the problem with faith is that it is not regulated by conscience".

LOL. Actually I don't think anyone has specified that yet but I know some of my wife's friends do think that way. Seems that many Indonesian girls have this white skin wish, which is why there are so many ads on TV for useless skin whiteners, many of them with a grade card suggesting that the model started off dark and is now white. Personally I prefer them the way they are.
