starting out - advice welcome

[Theseus]

Hello all.  New to this and to an international search.  I am 49, based in Boston and looking for a wife and family (child) ultimately.  I am notably tall (a bit over 6 2) of modest (decent looks), good natured and more of a conversationalist than dynamic in terms of habits - my ideal date would be a good talk over a glass of wine and dinner.   Very much an idea person rather than an adventure person.  Professionally, I am a trial attorney and also have a boutique detective agency that does financial investigations.  I live a modest lifestyle.  Looking for a sensual, affectionate, thinking woman.   Any and all advice as to how to pursue a search is appreciated.
 Much thanks, Bill

Hey Bill,--"Theseus", Good luck on your quest. Do you speak any Spanish? There will typically be challenges in translation and conversation between nations and cultures regardless. These can be overcome and enjoying the differences, instead of worrying about removing all of them, is typically good advice. But that and finding a cerebral, beautiful wife sounds like a great and quite plausible adventure, given time, thought and currency. And as supposedly did Theseus of ancient Greece himself, most of us here at P-L do love a good adventure! Go for it!

hide your lifestyle and $$ and let the woman pick you for you. that and protect your assets. It's not like you are 25 and just starting out. You don't want to pay the price if things don't work out.

Do you have any countries in mind?


I think we break the world as follows 1. Latin America 2. Asia 3. Europe


as those regions have industries geared toward foreign match making.


Kind of curious as to what countries you think have women that meet your criteria in ample supply?

Sounds like it is the 'Russian' woman you are looking for

You don't have to be a rocket scientist or a lawyer to realize this, but as you never really know what's going to happen down the road, I think anybody who's single or been married before and is looking to remarry and has a house in which they have equity should make sure the title of that and any other titled property is safely in their name. If you're thinking of marrying and buying a house, buy it before marriage.

You can protect retirement accounts and other assets too, but once you start to pull from those accounts, they're much more susceptible to division in a divorce. Pretty much the rule of thumbs is that any value acquired AFTER you've wed can be divided later on in the advent of a divorce. Value can also be allocated to any children you might have and lessen possible loss.

It sounds awful to talk about terms of divorce before the wedding arrangements, but life in the USA in particular, has a way of changing people years down the road....

well he "the OP" said he liked to talk


not sure the language barrier would come to be a big problem


maybe the Asian side would be a better fit


plenty of english speaking pinays  to choose from
