You are right. The more cautious girls are harder to get but they are the good ones

I have lived in the boonies with my Filipina wife and our family for the past 4 +years. We own property, have a business and a decent income. We came here from HK, where we lived well, but chose to live a life with less stress, here in the Philippines with our family. We have no budget because we don't need one, since our income exceeds our expenditure. The kids are in education and are doing ok. We take domestic and overseas trips and have a happy life with one another.

If you're respectful, Filipinos will love you. It's simple!

He is right about the real gem of a Filipina. They won’t approach you because we are supposed to be that way…… if they do, they are probably desperate! Take it slow, you will know if you stay there for a while. If you found one gem, you have a loyal partner FOR LIFE. I am a Filipina living in the US for 29 years.

Philippines is not a perfect country, but you are absolutely right we are welcoming people. I live in Vancouver and it’s so expensive here.

It's the same all over the world: if they're fast and loose they are fast to lose.....

The reason why women in the Philippines are wary of dating is because culturally it is a huge social step. Dating in the Philippines is different than it is in the west. The act of meeting a man in public for a potential romantic relationship is basically the woman announcing to the world that she is interested in you. That is a big deal for women in the cities, imagine how huge a deal that is in the provinces and smaller towns where everybody knows her. A woman trying to be discreet does not mean she is trying to scam you. She's trying to protect herself in case things down work out.

Very, very well said Chad about the front-line girls. All the other bloggers telling guys the foreigner is the prize is nonsense. They are the prize only to the low-value front line girls. The truly very good, high value girls are the big prize for a foreigner, consider yourself lucky to get one, you better be a high value person yourself to get one.

I believe people from the US have a slight edge with the PI. Our ancestors fought in the war with them plus the PI was a US colony. They really appreciate the liberation that happened and they are taught that in school. Beautiful country and beautiful people, among the friendliest people in the world!:)

I am here in the Philippines now. What he is saying is most definitely true. Yesterday my brother-in-law and I were at the doorway at the SM mall in Iloilo. We were waiting for our wives and the policeman offered us 2 chairs to wait for our wives. We have been here for over one month and in the middle of our stay we went to South Korea for 5 nights and 6 days! We had a blast!

Having traveled in the PI and Thailand, I came to realize that Filipinos are generally welcoming towards foreigners, whereas the Thais seem simply to tolerate foreigners.

There are wonderful great Filipina out there. When you meet a professional single and responsible woman they are great wife and they still believe finding their soul mate and create a family together.
