My Bulgarian girlfriend has been living in the UK for 6 months now and I thought this was a good time to share my experiences with you all. For any of you considering looking for a long term relationship with a Bulgarian / Eastern European woman, you may find some of the information useful.
My back story, I'm 42, 5ft 6, average looks, reasonable shape. Got married at 30 to your typical lazy English woman, divorced at 33 (no kids), Spent the last 10 years in and out of relationships with English women, basically drifting in terms of dating. The types of women I would date would be nothing special in terms of looks and normally the same age.
I was not unhappy with my life, but I realised that the chances of finding a young, attractive single woman for a guy like me were virtually non existent. I don't care what anyone says but as an over 40s, short guy in the UK, my dating value is low and competition for women is intense. The number of slim attractive women here is not good at all, the dating game really is stacked against you.
I met my girlfriend last June through a bulgarian online dating website, went out to Sofia last July, did a further 2 visits met her parents, she visited the UK in september for 2 weeks and she moved here in March. My girlfriend comes from a small town 30 miles outside Sofia, worked in a bank, speaks reasonable English, but had never travelled outside Bulgaria.
In terms of looks she definitely does not have model looks, but she is attractive, slim, feminine, 29 year old that is looking for a long term relationship. As stated earlier the chances of me meeting an English woman either in a bar / online / though friends, fitting this description would just not happen.
Okay so how has it being going? Well first of all I will not pretend that living with a bulgarian woman is some form of paradise as it is not. Women are women whether they are foreign or English and at times they are hard work to live with.
As someone on this forum said women are "Biological takers" and men are "Biological givers", make no mistake your Bulgarian women is just like your English woman and will take from you. The key difference I have found is that they do "give" you something back whereas your English woman in my experience gives you nothing and takes all.
My girlfriend does all the cooking and cleaning and does not moan about it. Occasionally she will ask for help with the dishes to which I always say "no that's your job" (once you start doing these thugs it become the norm, so don't do them is my advice). In return she has no money worries, gym membership and has a really high standard of living in one of richest countries in the world (for a woman's what not to like in the UK). She seldom drinks and will have 2 glasses of wine at the most and I have not seen her drunk only merry.
I am under no illusions that the relationship is not "free" and is based on love, as it is not. The bottom line is that i am paying for her living here and she is getting a good quality of life. In return, I am living a with an attractive sexy 29 year old woman and at this moment in my life I am happy. We did have a couple of bad months, the amount of sex dropped (she was ill), however I have made it quite clear that I need regular sex and the relationship will have problems if my needs are not met (try having that conversation with an English woman)
What I would say is that for any guys who are looking for a long term relationship and are fed up with the same old Anglo women, you could do a lot worst than give it a go with a Bulgarian woman, sure they have their faults (all women do), but compared to your typical fat lazy Anglo woman there is no comparison. Also from Jan 2014, Bulgarians are able to work in any EU country without any visa restrictions. If you are looking for a relationship my advice would be start pipelining now with a view to them moving next year if the relationship develops.
Cheers guys.
