Thats true man. During school, mothers would compare their children's academic performance. After so many years of schooling, turns out that girlfriends take over our mothers' role and compare their boyfriends. Sigh....

Hence, for most part of my life, I only managed to have 2 relationship with local women, and despite many attempts. I do not condemn our local women, as each and everyone have their needs and requirements. If the requirements do not meet, then sorry.

And, I'm facing the same prob. Earning 3+ a mth and having my own car. Its still a tough match.
After all, i realise car more fun than having gf. u never know a gal well enough until u marry her.
I had a date with this gal one day (she was earning 5k+ a mth). The date was fixed about 5 days something in advance. Come the day when I was supposed to meet her, I got a SMS from her in the morning. It read, "sorry, can't go out with her. got wedding to attend."
It didn't really surprise me, but she lack the decency to even make the effort to let me know a day or two before hand. Both parties have a right not to turn up. And, she is a singapore gal and her face shows it all as if guys are at her bidding. It happened a couple of times.
Now, I'm like u. I'm only interested in settling down with a foreign wife, cos' local gals are mostly keen on high achievers.

More likely, I'm seeking our ministers' motto and entreprenuers' advice to look for chances overseas... this case foreign women.  |
Don't fret. China women can be prettier too. Just don't be conned by them.
I'm not even considered eligible, but most of the girls think I'm doing very well. Few even realised that I dread singapore gals. I have a car, but never offered to send them home, because once they know they expect more and more.
