Being exotic has such an intoxicating magnetism to it. There is nothing exotic about me except when I'm traveling abroad -- especially in Asia.
It is such a drug, one where you can only feel high when far away from home and all those who know you. In a far-away land you can, essentially, be whomever you want to be. You can be reborn, you can choose a different path, pursue interests you never had the chance to before or never knew you wanted to.
I have a friend here who I will not name because he would be deeply embarrassed. He was never much of a ladies man back home, quite the contrary, he would tell me. But in Korea, he is utterly fascinating and exotic and he completely relishes it. Who wouldn't? It's only human nature to want to be desired so intensely.
When he came to this country he wasn't even attracted to Asian women. Now he can't get enough of them and he has eyes for no other.
He doesn't want to leave this country. Ever. He goes from social event to social event desperately trying to meet as many women as he possibly can, hoping to make enough of a connection. He has a personality that is charming when he wants it to be and, given his "exotic-nes," the Korean women lap it up. It is quite something to watch.
He actually has books on how to talk and interact with women - and he studies them. He will purposely put himself in certain situations with the intent to practice specific techniques. He actually told me all this. I had no idea men went through so much work and effort to get laid. Amazing.
