Thanks for the very insightful read of over 200 pages of this topic, i dun really post much but just to share with you my personal experience.

2 years ago, got to know of this Viet lady from GL/JC, after a few months we got together and she stopped working.(not going to talk about those KC stuff here) Being a WL, she of course had a reason like everyone else, and her reason was there were some debts in the family(sis mortgage house to repay gambling debts) in which i have helped her monthly till about 6 months ago, where her debts had finally cleared up.

Just as the burden of helping her had finally been lessen, i was informed again last week that her mum has borrowed from loansharks recently and they are contemplating to sell their house. So ask me to help out again.I nearly went berserk as my earning power is not high and the previous incident was a big strain on my finances over the last 2 years. So to cut the story short, told her to be on her own again and lead her own life.

B4 the loadshark incident, i was really considering to marry her as she had stopped working and waited for me since. (not a con job by her, no kids or ox etc, i have verified this) And i do know her love for me is true.(and vice versa) But now its all over.


Moral of story:
1)If you intend to marry a WL, be prepare to marry the family(and their debts) as well. I thought i can handle it but i didnt know it was a lifelong commitment!
2)$$ will always be the biggest and most important obstacle between you and your VN WL if you choose to persist with her, you better have a good paying job/in a biz and have some ba ba savings.
U count yourself lucky to get out of the cesspool b4 it's too late. Vietnamese, in general, love to gamble and money always no enuff.
Daughter(like the Thai) is a valuable asset; to look for willing Robert(s)
like you, to feed their gambling addictions.
