I'm going back to the Philippines for 6 weeks Wednesday to see my girlfriend that I met on line last year and spent a month with last December. So far no red flags. I love your videos and consider them extremely helpful and informative. Thanks
Thanks for the golden advice....the most important decision any man (or woman) can make is who will be your partner.....it can really make or break your future. I'm 49 now and the most important lesson I have learned is to always listen to your instincts and your gut feelings..
Glad you are back on line giving dating advice to the rock stars planning on going to the Philippines looking for a girlfriend as it is needed. Some of these men are so lost and broken that their level of what they will accept is so low that they become victims of a woman 30 years younger than them. Their grandsons who cruise the malls in America on a Friday night looking for a date are more astute to the red flags and manipulations of woman.
I’m afraid sometimes you cannot teach a certain type but when your emotionally homeless…and you have the attention of a women you cannot dream of in the west ..booosh downstairs kicks in lol. Ahhh yes marry me in 5 months ..build me a house in a year and take care of all my family ..”I love you, I mean I love your money”
Love seeing these fellow chi town brother living his best life! 🤘🏾 I live in Naperville,IL but was raised in Bolingbrook,il. My wife is from Brazil 🇧🇷 and we bought a beautiful fully furnished 2 bedroom condo in the state of Santa Catarina Brazil. Only paid 30k for it and it’s less that 8 years old. As someone who, like you experienced the chicago dating scene I can tell you dating and trying to thrive in the US is something I would not want to relive 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾 great video bro
Amen!! Your in a great state down there. I can not pronounce the city to save my life, but Curitiba is also a great city. Stayed there for a while. Was great visited a lot of Friends who live in your state down there. Beautiful countryside there. I'll never get over discovering Brazilian Cowboys down there. It like live Flying from the states to a Portuguese Texas haha
Thanks bro! and we moved here from Downers Grove and Rachel loved visiting Naperville and going to the little coffee shops. I liked it until she found the Lululemon store lol
@@houseaccount3293 😂😂😂 yeah it’s great! We stay in Navegantes and Balneario Camouriu when we go there. Yes, the country side is beautiful. My goal is to retiree there
@@ItsMe_Philippines yeah that lulu lemon store is a crazy expensive. 😂 man keep making those awesome videos. I just started watching your channel. I let them play while I work from home. Keeps me hyped up seeing others living the expat life
Yes, a relationship like yours is neither an accident nor an impossibility. When dating across cultures, people need to educate themselves because problem people look different based on the societal forces that formed them. So, there's more work up front. However, there's more reward also.
I have watched so many podcasts .warning me of filipinas that scared me to death , sounds like there is only one in a million chance finding one that is honest ,sincere ,but you two make me smile ,not sure if I have the stamina to wade through all the pit falls.
You two are two different happy peas in the same pod. Great advice! I've been through lots of those red flags. My Filipina wifey and I have been married for 5+ years now and it's always getting better. Her family is sane but typical Philippino busybodys who like to gossip. One problem we experience, I think because my wife has a good paying job here in Tennessee, is all the poor extended family members in the Philippines asking her for money. She gives some for genuine reasons. But some people have promised to pay her back and didn't. First world problem I guess. Like you said, you can't fix everybody. Great video! Really enjoyed it!
Hahahaha!! I loved this video.. First of all, I remember that fun loving Tracey with the blonde hair. She was funny. Second, I have been chatting with different Filipinas since 2010. I have run into just about all of those red flags. The worse for me was the family drama and yes, I had to walk away. Bruh!!! You wouldn't believe me if I told you, however, I still have the receipts.. Hehehehe!! One thing for sure, I'll never be visiting that family again.
You don't have to be interested in a Filipina to get something from this video - these red flags should apply to all women no matter where they're from.
Hey man, thanks for doing this video. You're doing good work and there are guys who are going to be better off because you sucked it up and talked through the awkward but necessary topics. Also, "Tracy" is hilarious.
I wish I’d seen this video in 2016. My first filipina did this. I’ve shared this with you previously. My current wife and I were introduced by her cousin, so much better. She never, ever once asked me for money. I volunteered to assist her with funds that were within my budget. Now that I’m living here, we have settled on a budget that fits our needs with funds left over for emergencies or fun things. She also works as a nurse, so she also has her own money. She pays for her own “personal” things and for meals when we go out as a family with her son and daughter. Her family is amazing. She does have a brother who is an alcoholic, but we have never tried to fix him. He is really a very nice guy and living with an alcoholic mother helps me deal with him. Plus he lives in Eastern Samar. But your videos are very helpful for men who are looking to start a relationship with a filipina. Keep it up.
Thank you, my friend. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave another great comment. There is a lot of good ones out there! Either way it sounds like I really need to plan a visit to Samar and see what it’s all about.
This was an excellent summary. I'm starting to wonder if I wouldn't just be better off staying Single once I make to move. Thanks for the excellent work, Tracie's a keeper. Salamat po. Peace and Love, B Goat
Absolutely great video ,great advice , one of the best videos I have watched in a long time. I'm sure this will help a lot of people sort thing out. Whishing you guys all best.
One issue I have noticed that applies to women in general is tattoos. Speaking as a man with multiple tattoos, I have noticed that women with tattoos are usually more promiscuous. It is also a good idea to avoid women with unnatural her color and long fake nails, if you are looking for a long term relationship.
My background for over 15 years was automotive trade during the day and managing a nightclub (adult) part time at night. I can say this is a fact with all certainty but do not want to get attacked or taken down discussing it.
@@Eric-qm5xw My wife always does her hair and nails so agree 100% In addition, I would never judge someone/women with tattoos. I just play it safe and go by facts and statistics. I myself am OCD and built a spreadsheet while working in the night club industry to look for patterns and build data. Unfortunately it was a clear number showing that 100% with tattoos had a horrible childhood/parent situation, while 100% of the girls without them were raised correctly. I'm not judging either way, I just like statistics when I'm gambling.
Hi guys. Great video. Been talking to a girl on line for a couple months. She has a couple red flags I’m concerned about. So I maybe discussing it with her. One thing about the multiple baby daddy’s is were they married? Did they get an annulment? If you get involved with one and it sounds like anyone can drop a dime to 5-0 and you’re in trouble with the law. So that’s one of my #1 questions. Stay safe my fellow single guys! Enjoyed the video!! 😊
most of these I have already been using but you defintely covered a lot of the high level red flags to watch out for. great video. Hope your real wife Rachel doesnt find out about This Tracy Lady in this video 🤣🤣
❤your channel. Real! Not gimmicky like many out of Duma except Mike in the Phillipines. Enjoy the content and connection between the two of you. Your hair looks great
🎯 Key points for quick navigation: 00:39 *💑 The couple has lived in the Philippines for nearly three years, adapting to life there and each other as a foreigner and a Filipina.* 01:19 *🚩 The video aims to highlight red flags foreigners should be aware of when dating Filipinas, based on firsthand experiences and conversations with others.* 02:40 *💸 Red Flag #1: Filipinas frequently asking for money, especially early in the relationship, signals dependency rather than genuine interest.* 04:17 *🏦 Red Flag #2: Excessive curiosity about a foreigner's income, savings, or financial situation could indicate ulterior motives.* 05:11 *🎭 Red Flag #3: Drama-prone Filipinas who involve their partners in family conflicts or unresolved issues can create lifelong stress.* 06:45 *🕒 Red Flag #4: A lack of quality time, such as frequent distractions or not prioritizing the relationship, suggests disinterest or immaturity.* 09:02 *📸 Red Flag #5: Filipinas with expensive lifestyle photos (e.g., luxury hotels, exotic locations) may have been funded by other foreigners, signaling questionable intentions.* 10:27 *📱 Red Flag #6: Constant phone use, prioritizing social media over spending time with a partner, indicates lack of focus on the relationship.* 11:19 *💔 Red Flag #7: Excessive jealousy, especially persistent and controlling behavior, can undermine trust and cause long-term issues.* 14:23 *🎮 Red Flag #8: Controlling behavior, such as dictating the foreigner’s plans or creating a “paid vacation” dynamic, is a major red flag.* 15:20 *🎵 Red Flag #9: TikTok addiction or excessive use of social media platforms reflects immaturity, lack of focus, and potential life dissatisfaction.* 17:22 *👶 Red Flag #10: Having children with multiple fathers often signals unresolved personal issues and potential future complications for the foreigner.* 19:42 *🧠 The couple advises thinking logically, not emotionally, when encountering red flags, as ignoring them can lead to long-term problems.* 20:52 *💬 Open communication and mutual respect can help address red flags in some cases if the person shows willingness to grow and improve.* 22:18 *💡 The takeaway emphasizes avoiding attractive but problematic partners and prioritizing long-term compatibility.* Made with HARPA AI
@@ItsMe_Philippines Thank you for always being transparent with your audience and sharing your honest experiences! It's helping greatly when weighing future options! 💪
GREAT content, brother! Usually I see the red flags and think,”CIRCUS! YAY!”🤪 and run towards it! 😂 Quick question- did you film this at The Sheraton Resort?! Your place is looking amazing-well done!👍🏻
Tracy's new hair is fantastic. See, it's good to listen to the Wify sometimes. This is a good show. It is very helpful for many to hear about, even if they ignore it and get stung. Everytime Rach changes her hair you can have a new date! LoL This must be Filipina logic and I think its fun and cool. Have a Magical Day....from Florida ... it was 40 degrees last night at work.
thanks for ur videos im from germany maybe i ll look in a few years for a waifu from phillipine too or other asian country. Im saving my earnings rn. Have a blessed day u 2 hope u all the best.
😂😂adapting to being married to a Filipina comment and expression killed me!!! You guys have become addicting to watch it’s like a sitcom. So funny!!! Anyways I’m a fellow Chicagoan myself and have lived in South Florida forever since. I am actually planning my retirement to move to the Philippines or Thailand. Probably Philippines bc of the language barrier. Where exactly idk yet. We have tons in common although I wasn’t able to serve my country. I’m heavy into fitness, finance, and I’m definitely OCD when it comes to details. I just need a well rounded Filipina that is actually not a gold digger, but a team player. Would love to visit or meet up in 2025 if that’s cool. I really won’t know anyone, but I’m sure I’ll meet people pretty quickly. Keep the great videos coming!! You both are awesome 👏 ❤
Good video and you hit the nail on the head with all 10. I would say multiple baby daddies is the top red flag especially if she is under 30. Shows irresponsibility, immaturity, no self-respect, not intellectually sound, and is definitely looking for an ATM to take care of them. Of course there are exceptions with any situation but I would stay far away from them.
All those red flags apply to anywhere you go in the world not just the Philippines. All the foreigners had those same problems from wherever they came from and didn't learn, thinking it would be different their.
Far far more extreme in the phil’s as Filipina take advantage of the westerner ..it’s all over social media in the phil’s. Westerners would not know about it ..the social media virus(the bad parts) are very much here. Ie “daddies” paying for Filipina on a ongoing basis etc
It’s great to see a mixture of info about living and wanting a Filipina relationship.looking forward to come to the Philippines and meeting both of yous. Keep up the great content..😊
You nailed it with this video . Listen to them if you are a guy looking for a woman over there . When they asked me what I did for a job I told them I cooked french fries at a fast food joint . My best advice is think with your big head not your small 1 .
Mabuhay Corey and Raquel, hope you're both doing great, looking forward to meeting up when I move there soon to be with my fiance and son, love your videos.
Tracy was in the sauce again???😂😂😂 Great video for everyone in a relationship, solid information… 2 against the world is the best relationship, hands down… ALL THE BEST…
Hi Corey, your videos give me hope and optimism. I'm saving up my money and traveling the world starting in 2025 including the Phillippines to look for my next home base and a good wife and your channel contributes to my drive. Thank you sir!
You just made a really good point question. So now I have to deal with double the stress and craziness…. But get the same amount of sex 🤷♂️ I think I need to sit down with the two of them and negotiate this lol
That’s way past a red flag, that’s what happens if you get with a girl and ignore all the red flags. You shouldn’t be giving her any money let alone giving her family any money. So it’s not excessive spending that’s the problem, it’s spending money on them at all is a problem. But it should never get that far if you watch for the warnings at the beginning.
@ItsMe_Philippines oh that's sad. Without striking the balance by getting the perspective of both sides, the Filipina will always be perceived by the world as the scammer, the gold digger -- while the men will always be seen as their "savior", the provider, the hero and the victim --even tho in real life, these men could also be the narcisstic partner, the abuser, the psychopath, the manipulator in the relationship... Nothing against you, Corey. I just think its unfortunate, but yeah I understand that this is the reality of UA-cam.
@@ßhopkins I've never heard of a foreigner being looked at like a "savior" and they do not think that way. Maybe we can touch this issue at some point down the road though.
@@ItsMe_Philippines so foreign men dont think they can save the girl's family and earn her affection by giving them money? somehow thats hard to believe. But yeah... what can we do.
@@ßhopkins is that what I said? That’s not even close to what I said so you might want to reread my comment. From all the Filipinas I have talked to, none of them look at foreigners like a savior.
Hi Corey, Fellow Chicagoan here. I really enjoy your channel and get a lot out of it, so thank you for that. This is not a comment about this video, but more of a request for a future video. I’m approaching my 60’s, happily married, and starting to think pretty seriously about what retirement could look like for us. So I’m wondering, what could life look like for people like us who are not Filipino, not looking for love, have no family ties there, but want a comfortable, secure (relatively) retirement. In particular, what would visa status look like, and what about home ownership? Is it even possible? So something less about finding love/companionship, but more about a couple retiring to The Philippines. Just a thought! Kind regards, Brian
Yes and no ..patriarchy can be extreme and a darker side is the unspoken abuse..and sexual abuse. It’s common in the Philippines and no often spoken of ..the women feel shamed by it. Also alot of homes are broken by poor fathers so you’ll no know until you delve deeper..
Tracy looks good with dark hair. I like my wife's hair dark too. well explained on what to look out for I have a new friend looking. I sent this video to him
Great video, Cory. Thanks your wife for the idea 😊 Here's a little fun, in connection with your video: Five secrets to Men’s happiness: 1. Find a woman who can make you laugh 2. Find a woman who can cook 3. Find a woman who really listens to you 4. Find a woman who is amazing in bed, and 5 Make sure these four women do not find out about each other 😂😂😂
Here's the most important thing to know. There is 100 to 1 ratio for good decent men there so don't fall in love right away lol. you are the prize there. it sounds bad but its reality. Be respectful and kind and you will have 100 options
Best comment yet! Guy's keep settling with the first girl they meet even though she has issues. Not realizing that there is a million other girls better than her out there.
You guys always crack me up. How often do you have to deal with bad attitude and does she just get silent? How long does it last? I failed my marriage with my ex who is Filipina but want to know what to avoid so I appreciate your videos. You two have lasted past the 5 year hump and seem to be getting along well.
Hey. I was just wondering about you two. Have not seen any vids come up for awhile.. Things are 'politically' changing here accross the pond. Good to see how always handle your wife with strong patience.. Much respect... Good to see you two and hopefully to see everything always evolving. Never let your woman go bored hey. Haha.
Jealousy is normal to a point. All the other Red Flags exist in all nationalities - not just Filipinos. And Red Flags are genderless, meaning they happen in both females and males.
A good idea for a video would be about what you gave up in usa to live your life in Philippines. Family, friends, job and do you miss anything back here. Maybe a little background on both of you before meeting would be nice.
If a man is looking for a women that is wife material in a bar than he is the red flag. That's the last place in the world you would ever look for a wife.
Great information buddy Philippines is a beautiful country God bless. Quick question is it always important to stay hydrated while exercising? An if you dont will muscle cramp follow?😬😁
@@ItsMe_Philippinesfor what? Showing up 1st 🙄 How is that a “thing”? lol I’d rather leave a good comment that helps others then receive accolades because I showed up 1st to the party🎉🙄🤷♂️😇
Love your dynamics, it’s fun loving and that how I am with my partner although I think my partner is more bully 😂..As a Filipina and a modern one who had a relative high paying job in Manila. I found that most men are simply not serious so it cuts both ways ..most just want “fun” and as a Catholic girl it’s simply not going to happen with me. Most Filipina want a loving partner and family, it’s that simple. So down to both parties find the right mix/jive. Guys you don’t need to get married in 5 months and build a house here in the Philippines, it’s unrealistic for a Filipina to ask that of you. Filipina asking for money, well it’s generally Filipino culture and on poorer spectrum. This can be negated by dating a professional Filipina and there are plenty of them in the big cities. Eyes wide open guys and welcome to the Philippines…lovely couple. God bless.
@ Finding the “right one”, usually will take time. As sometimes it can be a freakish coincidence in timing, I was on and off the apps as I simply did not have time to date as a banker in Manila/family life/social life and working out. God has a plan for us all..sometimes we need a little luck along the way. 🙏 All the best guys
Hello, how are you?!! I know this is a generic question, but how can I meet a wife like yours? I'm not just talking about her beauty, but also about the sensible comments she made in this video, how can I find her? Especially since I'm going to the Philippines in April. Thank you very much!!
A diamond girl - ganda & traditional. Jealousy & age gap turn the other way in the West. There Pinay will stop being jealous but will make their foreigner jealous... will start noticing younger guys and cheat via social media.
Another great one. Maybe in the future you can do one on what it takes to move a relationship forward. I had no idea what it would take to get a tourist of K1 visa. We were lucky to have what we needed but many may not know a head of time. Not sure if anything has changed since you got together, but there are certain steps you have to take. We have ours started, fee's paid, visa assistance company hired. There are costs, and requirements. You two are so informative. Just a thought for a future video. God bless and thanks
Thanks for the tip but that would be hard. For starters the process changes every year and the video would get outdate fast. Most of the viewers are also only looking to visit and not get married. Then we have the fact that the viewers are from an average of 8 different countries. Lastly, most questions I get are around moving here to get out of the west, not bring her there.
Amen Brother...Amen.. you did a good job covering this subject. Nice job.
Much appreciated
yes very on point with all these red flags
I'm going back to the Philippines for 6 weeks Wednesday to see my girlfriend that I met on line last year and spent a month with last December. So far no red flags. I love your videos and consider them extremely helpful and informative. Thanks
Best of luck! and thank you! What island are you heading to?
Wow, thats pretty surreal, but good luck, time will tell ALL
Tracey presenting herself with the chickens screaming in the background was perfect.

Hi Corey thanks for all the red flags. And the new girl hair style 😊. Hi "Stacy" hee hee. Another great video 👍
lol thank you
What a great couple. Been looking for this my whole life. So happy for you two!
Thank you so much!
social media addiction is the biggest red flag I've come across. She's more interested in "likes" than she is in me.
It's a growing problem sadly

I appreciate that! Mike is nice guy in person but I don't really watch videos about where I live so I can't speak on his channel.
Mike Phillipines Retirement is great. Love your channel

@@ItsMe_Philippines Thank you for always being transparent with your audience and sharing your honest experiences! It's helping greatly when weighing future options! 💪
Thoughtful and informative video
Thank you
GREAT content, brother! Usually I see the red flags and think,”CIRCUS! YAY!”🤪 and run towards it! 😂 Quick question- did you film this at The Sheraton Resort?! Your place is looking amazing-well done!👍🏻
lol thank you
Tracy's new hair is fantastic. See, it's good to listen to the Wify sometimes. This is a good show. It is very helpful for many to hear about, even if they ignore it and get stung. Everytime Rach changes her hair you can have a new date! LoL This must be Filipina logic and I think its fun and cool. Have a Magical Day....from Florida ... it was 40 degrees last night at work.
I do not miss 40 degree weather at all lol. 60 is nice, but not 40
thanks for ur videos im from germany maybe i ll look in a few years for a waifu from phillipine too or other asian country. Im saving my earnings rn. Have a blessed day u 2 hope u all the best.
Best of luck!
Hi Tracy & Ronald! Great content and convo again. Here's a solid 23 minutes and 35 secs of watch time from Finland.
@@FullFinnoy thank you my friend! How’s the weather over there right now?
@@ItsMe_Philippines Beautiful summer day, sun shines from clear blue skies and the warm coastal winds caress our skin at the beach *charot*
😂😂adapting to being married to a Filipina comment and expression killed me!!! You guys have become addicting to watch it’s like a sitcom. So funny!!! Anyways I’m a fellow Chicagoan myself and have lived in South Florida forever since. I am actually planning my retirement to move to the Philippines or Thailand. Probably Philippines bc of the language barrier. Where exactly idk yet. We have tons in common although I wasn’t able to serve my country. I’m heavy into fitness, finance, and I’m definitely OCD when it comes to details. I just need a well rounded Filipina that is actually not a gold digger, but a team player. Would love to visit or meet up in 2025 if that’s cool. I really won’t know anyone, but I’m sure I’ll meet people pretty quickly. Keep the great videos coming!! You both are awesome 👏 ❤
Shoot me an email when you're heading over and Thailand is our favorite place to visit so that's a tough call.
Good video and you hit the nail on the head with all 10. I would say multiple baby daddies is the top red flag especially if she is under 30. Shows irresponsibility, immaturity, no self-respect, not intellectually sound, and is definitely looking for an ATM to take care of them. Of course there are exceptions with any situation but I would stay far away from them.
Smart man
All those red flags apply to anywhere you go in the world not just the Philippines. All the foreigners had those same problems from wherever they came from and didn't learn, thinking it would be different their.
This is true
Far far more extreme in the phil’s as Filipina take advantage of the westerner ..it’s all over social media in the phil’s. Westerners would not know about it ..the social media virus(the bad parts) are very much here. Ie “daddies” paying for Filipina on a ongoing basis etc
It’s great to see a mixture of info about living and wanting a Filipina relationship.looking forward to come to the Philippines and meeting both of yous. Keep up the great content..😊
Our pleasure!
I sure do love Tracy lol"of course"you both look great and It was a good video again thank you I always enjoy your stuff
Thank you!
You nailed it with this video . Listen to them if you are a guy looking for a woman over there . When they asked me what I did for a job I told them I cooked french fries at a fast food joint . My best advice is think with your big head not your small 1 .
@@toddsmith2349 exactly and thank you
Mabuhay Corey and Raquel, hope you're both doing great, looking forward to meeting up when I move there soon to be with my fiance and son, love your videos.
Thank you, and safe travels!
Tracy was in the sauce again???😂😂😂
Great video for everyone in a relationship, solid information…
2 against the world is the best relationship, hands down…
ALL THE BEST…
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
Good job bro. Set boundaries and walk away.
Exactly
Very good, sound advice. 🙏
Thank you and hopefully it helps people
Hi Corey, your videos give me hope and optimism. I'm saving up my money and traveling the world starting in 2025 including the Phillippines to look for my next home base and a good wife and your channel contributes to my drive. Thank you sir!
Fantastic! Let's meet for a coffee when you're local
Dude, don’t say ur looking for a wife! Move because you found a place you like, not because of a woman
Raquel" It's The Humidity In The Philippines!! Good Video Cory" It Is Better To Be Careful Then Sorry Later! Have A Great Week 👍!
100% agree
Another great video
Thank you 🙏 appreciate you always leaving a positive comment
oh, Tracy is back! lol it's nice to have 2 ladies. Drive us men twice as crazy. lol
You just made a really good point question. So now I have to deal with double the stress and craziness…. But get the same amount of sex 🤷♂️ I think I need to sit down with the two of them and negotiate this lol
@@ItsMe_Philippines Exactly! there has to be some ground rules. lol
Good idear for a video I have enjoyed it thank you miss "always ready"
🙂
You guys are funny! "Tracey" brought up great points haha!
Glad you enjoyed!
I really enjoy your videos! I'd definitely rank excessive spending to support her family among the top 10 issues.
That’s way past a red flag, that’s what happens if you get with a girl and ignore all the red flags.
You shouldn’t be giving her any money let alone giving her family any money. So it’s not excessive spending that’s the problem, it’s spending money on them at all is a problem. But it should never get that far if you watch for the warnings at the beginning.
To be fair, please also discuss the red flags of dating foreigners for your Filipino viewers.
Raquel, its your time to shine! 🆘🚩⚠️
I like the idea but that's only 4% of the viewers 😕
@ItsMe_Philippines oh that's sad. Without striking the balance by getting the perspective of both sides, the Filipina will always be perceived by the world as the scammer, the gold digger -- while the men will always be seen as their "savior", the provider, the hero and the victim --even tho in real life, these men could also be the narcisstic partner, the abuser, the psychopath, the manipulator in the relationship...
Nothing against you, Corey. I just think its unfortunate, but yeah I understand that this is the reality of UA-cam.
@@ßhopkins I've never heard of a foreigner being looked at like a "savior" and they do not think that way. Maybe we can touch this issue at some point down the road though.
@@ItsMe_Philippines so foreign men dont think they can save the girl's family and earn her affection by giving them money? somehow thats hard to believe. But yeah... what can we do.
@@ßhopkins is that what I said? That’s not even close to what I said so you might want to reread my comment. From all the Filipinas I have talked to, none of them look at foreigners like a savior.
Happy Holidays Cory & Tracy. Cory, what happened to your other wife Rachel:)
She's waiting inside lol
Great vlog guys really useful
Happy to help!
Hi Corey,
Fellow Chicagoan here. I really enjoy your channel and get a lot out of it, so thank you for that. This is not a comment about this video, but more of a request for a future video. I’m approaching my 60’s, happily married, and starting to think pretty seriously about what retirement could look like for us. So I’m wondering, what could life look like for people like us who are not Filipino, not looking for love, have no family ties there, but want a comfortable, secure (relatively) retirement. In particular, what would visa status look like, and what about home ownership? Is it even possible? So something less about finding love/companionship, but more about a couple retiring to The Philippines.
Just a thought!
Kind regards,
Brian
I'll save this comment and add it to the list
Flag #11 - bad relations with father or no father present = relationship issues (this applies to all women)
Good one!
Yes and no ..patriarchy can be extreme and a darker side is the unspoken abuse..and sexual abuse. It’s common in the Philippines and no often spoken of ..the women feel shamed by it. Also alot of homes are broken by poor fathers so you’ll no know until you delve deeper..
Tracy looks good with dark hair. I like my wife's hair dark too. well explained on what to look out for I have a new friend looking. I sent this video to him
Thank you
Hi "Stacy". Good information.
lol thank you
The last minute of this, is some of the funniest shit I've ever seen, especially after talking about Red Flags! 😂
lol we only speak the truth
Great video, Cory. Thanks your wife for the idea 😊
Here's a little fun, in connection with your video:
Five secrets to Men’s happiness: 1. Find a woman who can make you laugh 2. Find a woman who can cook 3. Find a woman who really listens to you 4. Find a woman who is amazing in bed, and
5 Make sure these four women do not find out about each other
😂😂😂
hahahahahaha that's to funny
It's very important that a beautiful Philippino woman also approves these 10 red flags. ☺️☺️
Yes, true
Here's the most important thing to know. There is 100 to 1 ratio for good decent men there so don't fall in love right away lol. you are the prize there. it sounds bad but its reality. Be respectful and kind and you will have 100 options
Best comment yet! Guy's keep settling with the first girl they meet even though she has issues. Not realizing that there is a million other girls better than her out there.
You guys are a hoot! All the best. :)
Thank you!
How did the chicken washing go and you going to finish the fish run ....
And thank you for another great video
Ooo happy Thanksgiving.
All good here!
Tracy is looking good. Natural beauty and some Cory fine tuning. Outstanding.
Thank you!
You both look fab, great going
Thank you
You guys always crack me up. How often do you have to deal with bad attitude and does she just get silent? How long does it last? I failed my marriage with my ex who is Filipina but want to know what to avoid so I appreciate your videos. You two have lasted past the 5 year hump and seem to be getting along well.
Watch my tampo video for those answers but I NEVER get an attitude and I would NEVER deal with it even once.
Hey.
I was just wondering about you two.
Have not seen any vids come up for awhile.. Things are 'politically' changing here accross the pond.
Good to see how always handle your wife with strong patience..
Much respect... Good to see you two and hopefully to see everything always evolving.
Never let your woman go bored hey. Haha.
We usually upload at most once a week so no worries my friend.
If a filipina ask you for money, she doesn't like you, thinks you're a dork and has zero respect for you. Just run.
Same dynamic as walking into a strip club and thinking she’s going to respect you once you give her money.
Jealousy is normal to a point.
All the other Red Flags exist in all nationalities - not just Filipinos.
And Red Flags are genderless, meaning they happen in both females and males.
Very true
I dunno...this Tracy girl seems pretty smart! 😂
How is the Pool doing? Just hoping it is good for you as it warms up there 😊
lol yeah she’s a cool chick! Pool will be done soon when the last of the compound comes in!
A good idea for a video would be about what you gave up in usa to live your life in Philippines. Family, friends, job and do you miss anything back here. Maybe a little background on both of you before meeting would be nice.
Maybe we could do a background video but I don't feel like I gave anything up coming here.
great video, being careful with the girls you meet in bars is always a good idea.
If a man is looking for a women that is wife material in a bar than he is the red flag. That's the last place in the world you would ever look for a wife.
Great information buddy Philippines is a beautiful country God bless. Quick question is it always important to stay hydrated while exercising? An if you dont will muscle cramp follow?😬😁
Always important to stay hydrated here and I add in taurine to be safe.
Taurine what is that?@@ItsMe_Philippines
Tracey followed from Thailand!?
I'll tattoo "Tracey" on me and we will see how she reacts lol
Nice video.
Thank you
First 🥇❤️
😢 I tried so hard lol
Congrats!😂
@@ItsMe_Philippinesfor what? Showing up 1st 🙄 How is that a “thing”? lol I’d rather leave a good comment that helps others then receive accolades because I showed up 1st to the party🎉🙄🤷♂️😇
Love your dynamics, it’s fun loving and that how I am with my partner although I think my partner is more bully 😂..As a Filipina and a modern one who had a relative high paying job in Manila. I found that most men are simply not serious so it cuts both ways ..most just want “fun” and as a Catholic girl it’s simply not going to happen with me. Most Filipina want a loving partner and family, it’s that simple. So down to both parties find the right mix/jive. Guys you don’t need to get married in 5 months and build a house here in the Philippines, it’s unrealistic for a Filipina to ask that of you. Filipina asking for money, well it’s generally Filipino culture and on poorer spectrum. This can be negated by dating a professional Filipina and there are plenty of them in the big cities. Eyes wide open guys and welcome to the Philippines…lovely couple. God bless.
Sad but true as most Filipinas all tell me they meet plenty of foreigners, however they are not "serious" or really looking for love or a wife.
@ Finding the “right one”, usually will take time. As sometimes it can be a freakish coincidence in timing, I was on and off the apps as I simply did not have time to date as a banker in Manila/family life/social life and working out. God has a plan for us all..sometimes we need a little luck along the way. 🙏 All the best guys
IS this a new camera cause idk why but the quality is top maybe its the lighting
Same camera and just learning how to use it better lol
Hello, how are you?!! I know this is a generic question, but how can I meet a wife like yours? I'm not just talking about her beauty, but also about the sensible comments she made in this video, how can I find her? Especially since I'm going to the Philippines in April. Thank you very much!!
Link in the video description!
Great Advice,
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant work on the jealousy subject all Filipinos are crazy jealous
I was laughing my head off watching you tiptoe through the subject
I was trying to talk without talking lol
Your patience is hilarious kuya
I bite my tongue often lol
Lol Tracy is the funniest ..you have the patience of a saint. I love watching it but could not handle it lol 😂
hilarious intro!
lol thank you!
My guy is winning
Fact
“Quality time”? I could go for some quality time right now. 😆
I’m thinking like Martin Lawrence in Bad Boys though. 😆
lol
look at his hair great result from the transplant Cory thanks for givin hope im trying to find my Filipina second long tour I. A few days
Look online my friend and thank you for the compliment!
Beautiful couple ❤❤
Thank you!
A diamond girl - ganda & traditional.
Jealousy & age gap turn the other way in the West.
There Pinay will stop being jealous but will make their foreigner jealous... will start noticing younger guys and cheat via social media.
Some but not all.
Another great one. Maybe in the future you can do one on what it takes to move a relationship forward. I had no idea what it would take to get a tourist of K1 visa. We were lucky to have what we needed but many may not know a head of time. Not sure if anything has changed since you got together, but there are certain steps you have to take. We have ours started, fee's paid, visa assistance company hired. There are costs, and requirements. You two are so informative. Just a thought for a future video. God bless and thanks
Thanks for the tip but that would be hard. For starters the process changes every year and the video would get outdate fast. Most of the viewers are also only looking to visit and not get married. Then we have the fact that the viewers are from an average of 8 different countries. Lastly, most questions I get are around moving here to get out of the west, not bring her there.
@@ItsMe_Philippines yeah that all makes sense. Bringing her here is temporary.. but all the same,, Thanks again and keep up the great content
