Y'know, I never looked it like that before. But it's true, whenever I speak German, I get the urge to invade Poland.

Sad, but I had to laugh.

Very interesting and true post.

In 2016 I accepted a job in Vietnam to be close to the girl that I have struck up a relationship with on Facebook. She was a Catholic Vietnamese girl farmer's daughter and a school teacher of 17 years in the central Highlands. Never married and never had a boyfriend she never really had time as helping her family survive and Devotion to her job and her students was her main priority. We spent a lot of time together. She would ride down on a motorbike 6 hours to District 9 Saigon where my company provided a house for me in mega Village. Having a Vietnamese girlfriend helps me to navigate and immerse me into the Vietnamese culture I now have hundreds of Vietnamese friends as well as family as she is now my wife. It was never mind in her intention to come back to America which we are in now we were making plans to buy a house in Vietnam she was going to get a teaching job in Saigon. As it turned out I worked for a complete idiot. A terrible company and the woman who ran it had no idea how to run a business or how to develop a customer base as she was very short-sighted and the company is now failing miserably. I could stand no more! I had another job lined up in the furniture industry in Vietnam but my girlfriend who is now my wife haha she said you know we did not ask for this to happen but since it has I've always wanted to go to America well, we can always come back to Vietnam. Well I got to live my dream in Asia I could not deny her her dream so here we are I do miss Vietnam but she is very happy here in America we have a good-sized Vietnamese population here in my town of Knoxville Tennessee.1 well I'm doing a lot of rambling here but I can tell you this has been the best decision of my life this is my third marriage I am 54 she is 40 she is the love of my life we have so much fun together we are more in love today than we were four years ago!
Don't give up hope my friend....good girls are in vietnam...
