Hold Onto Your Husbands
Married couples are retiring in Bali at an ever increasing
rate. This would seem to make perfect sense. A couple, who has worked hard all
their lives and built up a small nest egg, can retire to Bali and live out
their golden years luxuriously and relatively cheaply. The people are friendly,
the island is beautiful and the weather is perfect. But
more importantly a reasonable lifestyle on the island can be achieved for as little
as US $ 3000 a month. Bali could seem like a dream place to spend one's declining
years. But unfortunately this may not be as simple as it may sound.
Retiring to a place like Bali can place a heavy burden on a
marriage. There will be the expected pressures. The couple will have to adjust
to different foods, different ways of paying bills, different driving habits
and different laws for example. But then there may also be unexpected emotional
strains applied to the relationship. And one of these pressures may be
jealousy.
Western women considering retirement in Bali should think
about the level of temptation that will be placed before their husbands on a
regular basis. Bali is full of beautiful women, foreign and local alike. Any
man living in on the island will be confronted regularly by beautiful young
girls. He will see them wearing next to nothing and sitting astride motorbikes.
He will notice them parading along the beach topless, or in bikinis that barely
cover their lithe and lascivious bodies. And he will encounter them drinking in
bars or dancing seductively in nightclubs. And these women are just the tourists.
For a man, residing in Bali can be like living at the Playboy Mansion.
The beautiful and seductive young tourists are not the only
problem. Then there are the stunning Indonesian girls who are ready with a
smile and always willing to sit and chat. These women are not shy to approach
an unaccompanied man. And although not all of them are planning some sort of
sinister seduction, a number of these women have nothing but seduction on their
minds. They are more than willing to steal a husband from unsuspecting Western
women. To this type of woman, a rich Western man is the prize they have been
seeking most of their lives. They couldn’t care less about his marriage status.
They will weigh up what he has to offer and if he is deemed suitable, they will
start making their take-over plans.
The female population of Indonesia, over the age of fifteen,
is close to eighty million. If a woman retires to Bali with her husband and she
is foolish enough to allow him to roam its streets alone, then she could be
seen to be committing a form of marriage suicide. A woman contemplating this would
be very wise to learn from Indonesian ladies. An Indonesian women involved in a
relationship knows about her competition. She has to. She was once a competitor
in this most ruthless of games. Regardless of his excuses she will never let he partner
out of her sight. The risk of losing him is too high. She will keep constant
tabs on her man and she will shadow him at any given opportunity.
An Indonesian woman will do anything in her power to keep
other women away. A perfect example of this is the innocuous love bite or
hickey. An Indonesian woman will randomly mark the neck of any man she is
intimate with. She will not do this because she is overpoweringly caught up in
the act of making love. She will do this as a warning sign for other women to
keep away. For her the love bite is a dog pissing on a tree symbol of ownership.
It is a message to her competitors that they had better stay away.
