Expat slang. Same meaning as an LBH or Loser Back Home. A directionless
male expat who leaves his home
country for a developing economy
country and is viewed as "handsome" and "successful" by the local women.
Ted is a total LBH with Suddenly Handsome Syndrome because he's lived in Asia for over 30 years and is on his third hot wife. Back in North
America, he'd be nothing more than a pathetic,
short, annoying dude who speaks Mandarin.
