Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Am I being taken advantage of in Cambodia?English
14·19 days agoWhat are your plans and expectations? How long do you want to stay? Do you want it to be a long-term relationship? Do you want to get married to her, have kids? If not, do you want to visit regularly? Are you willing/not willing to substantially support her/the family? etc.
As this is an unusual situation (which isn’t a value judgment), I think it’s important to really think these things through, and then communicate them openly. But also understand that many cultures (including Cambodian, I think) tend to prefer subtle hints over direct communication, so in order to really understand her expectations, it might be helpful to get opinions by some Cambodian third party (I’m sure there’s some English-language Cambodian forum you can turn to for that).

I’m kind of amazed that they weren’t leaked a long time ago already. But I guess potential whistleblowers are aware it could literally be their death if they got found out.
