  1. The acts of the Khmer Rouge were very inhuman. I remember a docu on the History Channel about kids who were made to play the flute while the killings were done. Just imagine a nine-year-old boy playing a flute in front of tortured individuals... a boy who had to hold back any emotion or he would join the number.

    Arn was one of 700 children who were taken to Wat Aik by the Khmer Rouge in the mid-1970s. Wat Aik was a Buddhist temple area in Cambodia that the Khmer Rouge converted into a killing place. Children were separated from their parents, and forced to work from 5 a.m. until midnight every day. Sometimes, they were starved.

    "For one or two weeks they would not let us eat. They said, 'You didn't make any rice.' They just found an excuse to starve us to death," said Arn, who weighed about 40 pounds.

    "They let me play music for them, and I knew music could save my life, because the Khmer Rouge wanted to kill me also," Arn said. "Because I looked white, my fingers were long, and they thought I was from a rich family, so they wanted to kill me, but they couldn't do that because I was out to play music for them, and I was good at it."

  2. Everything you are typing remind me of my fiancee. She has a very nice JOB in Dubai and also has a degree. She always tell me about wanting a simple life and things like that.

    I wonder if you should give her a second chance? Just thinking aloud.

    Give her a second chance because she has a very nice job and she said she only wants a simple life?

    There is always a huge difference between believing and doing or merely saying.

    Sure, give her a second chance and wait until you catch her red-handed before you decide to ditch her. That's the most moronic thing to do.

  3. i do like filipina women overall in general, but feel like i married the wrong one, feeling like i cannot be happy for life with this woman.

    can she put a ban on me from entering the philippines or be able to somehow keep another filipina woman from leaving the country to be my wife?

    There you have it. You've been quoted. Yes, you are also concerned about picking another Filipina in the future while you can't even handle your present plight.

    Guy, you just wanna be single again that's why all you see are her not-so-desirable traits. You are finding reasons why you should leave her and call the relationship off. What were you thinking when you married her anyway? That your life would be the same as when you were still alone? Apparently, it's not just your wife who has attitude problems.

    I'm not a part of your household but VJ is not your household either so once you bring your household problems here, you can expect to hear something from people like me. :rolleyes:

    My house was cleaner without her and I lived alone.
    Honestly and i'm being really truthful here. I was content with life before i met her, content.
    I know I can be back to being content with life again without her and just move on.
  4. I have a feeling that the root of this is: The guy has extremely high expectations on how marriage or his wife should be.

    True enough, it would've been different if the wife did something nasty or has committed fraud; however, that's not the case here. There's one whiny guy saying or implying that his wife is fat and all. This guy really sounds unpleasant and it's just strange that the early posters on this thread are even encouraging him to go for divorce. There are just people who think that marriage is trial-and-error and they enjoy being their own guinea pigs.

  5. It's actually unbelievable that instead of finding ways to fix the marriage, this guy is already looking into getting another woman from the Philippines. He's more worried with being banned from the PH in the future and that he couldn't hook up with another girl there rather than solving the present situation.

    Just earlier this year, the same guy was asking VJers how his fiancee could get her police clearance from another country.

    Note: It has been ages since I last posted on VJ and I cannot remember my password. A nod to the mods and the Ewok.
