Filipina Girlfriend Says We're Over if I Go to Cambodia Alone
She seems to have trust issues, but after a year and a half of studying Khmer, I finally have a chance to visit Cambodia, and it seems to be affecting her very deeply. She says I cannot travel there alone under any circumstances. How can I convince her that it's really NBD? For various reasons, she cannot travel as well.
Unlikely she'll change her mind, I'd wager.
Looks like you'll be taking a family member of hers with you.

It's frustrating because I do like her a lot and don't see how much cheating I could possibly do in a week or so.

Why have you spent 18 months studying Khmer?
It continues to be mostly a hobby. Back in the day, I had a crush on a Khmer lady (who lives in the States) and wanted to try to learn a bit of the language to impress her. It didn't work, but I liked the language and found a good online teacher and I just kept going.

Well, assuming that you are relatively healthy, coupled with the fact you can buy viagra in Minimarts here for pennies, with a serious attempt you could probably manage 3 or 4 different girls per day, during a one week trip, you could rack up between 21 and 28 new notches on your pistol.merchantsmutual wrote: ...

It ain't trust issues she has. The term is better referred to as "control". Call the bluff...Say ok...lee hai..bye bye, see you later. Watch her try a different tact then.

This is what I'm thinking too. Either way it's very pathological.Chris K wrote:It ain't trust issues she has. The term is better referred to as "control". Call the bluff...Say ok...lee hai..bye bye, see you later. Watch her try a different tact then.

What a fucking bitch. She's trying to exert control over you. Call her bluff and say you're going anyway. Then go, and upon return, shag her once more then tell her to go slut herself.

In the early eighties I told my girlfriend that a mate suggested I go to Bangkok with him. The girlfriends exact words were, "Oh no your not...you will end up screwing a different Thai girl every night"! I booked my ticket the next day.

I don't understand these questions that start with "My Filipino gf" or "My Khmer gf" etc. If you are asking a specific cultural question, like "my Khmer father in law passed away. What are the obligations on my wife?" or something like that, then cool. But generic questions like jealousy, come on, it's just "girlfriend".
Seriously, you live in the U.S. Reword your question to say "My Pennsylvanian girlfriend says we're over if I..." and then think to yourself if that sounds reasonable or not. Personally, if I were in a full time job in the states and lived with a gf, I wouldn't be taking random vacations - I would have a limited amount of time off, and presumably a limited amount of discretionary income for large trips. It's understandable for a significant other to want you to spend that time and money on being with them. However, I know several men and women that do travel independently from even their spouses. Of course, there are specific events, work, weddings, stag parties, family obligations, etc, that warrant an individual trip, but I can understand why she might not want you to take a long solo trip.
If the sole reason for her reaction is a fear you will cheat on her, then there are probably some deeper issues. If you are in the mindset of going and then coming home to deal with the repercussions, that should also tell you enough about the relationship. Lastly, if it's some power game between you and her, then get rid of her and find someone else, you'll both be happier in the long run.
