Didn't know which forum to put this in...mods feel free to move where appropriate.
Long story short, I got back 2 weeks ago from a 2 week trip. Spent the last week with one girl and I fell for her hard. Of course I miss the scene in LOS but really, I miss her. She doesn't speak English (which frankly was more of a plus than minus during our time together) so we've been relegated to short, awkward 5-minute phone conversations where she gives me the standard lines and I try to explain why I can't come back tomorrow. Fortunately she has a friend that helps her send me emails with pictures, but who knows what she's thinking or writing.
Life should be good right now but since I first visited LOS last year after a split with a long-term girl here, it hasn't been that way. I live close to the beach, there are "beautiful" girls everywhere (have little interest and less motivation since LOS), and supposedly this (San Juan Capo) is a nice place to live and raise a family. Instead I wake up, fight traffic, nitpick with opposing counsel and angry judges, fight traffic again, eat, goto the gym, sleep and repeat.
I've looked into working and living in LOS but my only skill is not in demand there (plenty of Thai lawyers who speak English with impressive resumes). Also thought of teaching English in Korea where my brother makes good money but again, that would be a waste of my education, especially since I have yet to pay off the loans that afforded me that education.
I know what I have to do. Nut up, stop whining and put LOS and the girl out of my mind. But instead I have crazy ideas like sponsoring the girl. Problem is, she sends money home to the folks and I can't (or won't) sponsor an entire family, water buffalo and all. But I'm scared of losing her as if she were mine in the first place.
Is this a normal response or am I alone here?
