I wish I had the money to move to Brazil, the country I was born in.

But I just don't have the money to travel to Brazil and I also can't drive a car because I have a serious disability so not being able to drive prevents me from traveling abroad.

Did he marry a Brazilian? Did he have greater success over there or in the US? I agree that it does sound somewhat racially biased and stereotypical to me. What's wrong with dating American women? I have never been to the States but I have met American girls in Western Europe and they seemed to be nice, the ones on here seem to be nice too.

I think some guys live in a fantasy where the grass is greener on the other side and they are going to go to Sweden or Brazil and have supermodels all over them.

This shouldn't matter for men who are struggling in dating. Those men's main concern should be finding prospects who are willing to date them, and not to find 'prettier' pool of prospects (who would be less likely to accept them).

very much agree. Moving somewhere for the women is a stupid idea in my book.

This thread reeks of being moved to adult.

What do you mean by that?

Just so it's clear, I don't think my friend did it for the looks.

Forget Brazil. You'll find nicer people over here.
(Of course, you might right come across some nasty people instead, but chances are you'll meet the nice ones as there are far many more...)

Of course the grass is greener, but OP's friend might live in an area like say, Seattle, where women want a career first (and a man with a career already) rather than a relationship today. (gross over simplification, i know!)
-Compare this to the girls i know from North Carolina and Ohio, whom many from the western washington area would call "crazy"
most of the guys i know here are either still hooked up with someone they met in highschool, or someone they met in the later stages of college.
someone like myself, without a degree, without a career has little to offer around these parts.

I'm headed to South africa sometime in the next 3 months btw.

and as far as the grass is greener, more than a couple people have told me i should go to college in central/south america and learn "real" spanish, knock out the first 3 years of college for pennies on the dollar compared to 5 figures a year for tuition in the States.

I didn't hear of the differences between states/cities in women before.

My friend is originally from the Grand Rapids, Michigan area (where I am). Went to attend college/university in California. Currently lives in the Washington, DC area.

hmm. there's differences alright. It sounds like he should know this though, and probably just wants to "widen his horizons"
for whatever intentions i will not presume...

Hmm I understand but what I'm saying is that if men lack success with women and dating in their own country or lack the confidence to approach and escalate with women, how is moving to another country surrounded by even more beautiful women going to solve that?

Wouldn't you rather move somewhere where the people speak English?

I dont think you understand just how hard it is to try and communicate with people who dont talk the same language as you. Unless you have the best looks in the world I doubt youd get far. And considering that this thread is specifically about spanish speaking countries its even less of a chance theyd speak english. Its well known that most people that speak a latin based language are unlikely to know english, especially if they are in their own country. So unless you can perform a superhuman feat and learn spanish or portugese in a month itll be a hard hit on you.

Have you ever been to a place where people don't speak English? It's difficult to impossible to make yourself understood. I'd be completely lost in Poland, Ukraine or Russia, for example.
