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.
