must be too rich to get well educated girls?
Those studying or working in Sabah usually communicate in local native language/slang. Often time they dont find the need to speak English. But that doesn't mean they are not well educated.

Not needing to speak English and not be able to speak English are quite easy to differentiate. And yeah, for the most part well educated girls generally don't go out with 30 year old guys doing grease monkey work living in a room above a bar.

I'm not malaysian but I understand simple malay and I have a dictionary on my phone, problem is that I don't understand the abbreviations.

For example this:

"ti me jumpa u kat pool k. .ti me datang cna"

I get there's english mixed up in there and she says "I see you at pool",  and "I come", but what is "ti" and what is "cna".  typo?  english? Malay?
BTW this is in Sabah
*
t / ti - nanti
cna - sana



but kenot brain la how can cna = sana ... if cni = sini make sense la rclxub.gif

What is monkey grease job?
Maybe you targeted the wrong girls, or you got low self esteem, or face problem. No offense.

30? Are you looking for teenage girls or something? 30 is hardly undateably old.

no it isn't but if a young guy has no house and a shit car, it's because he's young, he's just starting out. if a 30 year old is in that situation, he's probably in a rut. That's the difference. Women think about stuff like this.

Anyway, think of it this way, imagine you went to a country where, for whatever reason, 50% of perfectly good women are unattainable to you. That's kind of how I feel. It just makes it twice as hard to get a girlfriend, which wasn't easy for me to begin with.

Which part of Sabah are you talking about? I am sure all girls learnt English in school and when I was in KK I observed many could converse well in English.
