[Percival]

Ladyboy admirer, thanks loads and yes If you have any help/guidance whatever it's greatly needed and appreciated. The situation you describe is exactly like my little Dominican girlfriends. They have no hope of a decent job and if they can offer me youth and beauty and friendship in return for security and a lot of genuine admiration and care on my part (which they can't get from the local guys, that's for sure. We know how to treat our girls) then it's a good exchange, I think. I'm youthful and I look good but I KNOW I can't get a chance with a teenage cutie here in the states and the Dominican girls are so friendly. All of life, in all facets is a trade--we all help each other. Your time spent with your Filipino girl friends sounds great, and yes, keeping in mind the limitations of what can be expected in terms of real emotions. I love you doesn't always exactly mean that when they say it.
