Guys can't you recognize the satire, irony, and Sarcasm ? This guy is great at detailing absurdity. Funny as hell and a pretty damn good writer/narater.
The behavior of the women is the same as if they were doing all of it under duress. It's as if a kidnapper demanded they try to meet a guy online or their child will never be returned.
I had the same experience. Never once did my date arrive early or on time. Didn’t matter how late I showed up I ended up waiting. But the sight of them coming to you erased the annoyance. The next high faded with the painful conversation void. Rinse and repeat. 🤣🤣 Your daily diary enters are priceless. Great detail ! I was there 😅
I had the opposite experience. I met a fantastic woman on asian dating. And when we vcalled she didn't look like her pictures from asian dating, she looked 100x better than her pictures on AD. Just came home from manila a few days ago and I had the time of my life and she was even more beautiful in real life than on video call.
@@ThatWasThenThisIsNow-yn1eq Came back 14 days ago after spending a month with her, new tickets already ordered for febuary 25. Then she is comming here next July.
This may well be the best partnership… marriage of mutual convenience. Both parties benefit-young wife caring for the elderly husband and the elderly husband financially propping up her future. This is a win win.
Agree that they are looking for a lady to have sex and take care of them in their golden years . That’s so so disgusting! Filipinas have loose morals. Prostitutes
This guys is right if you are about 55 years old as long as you keep yourself in shape good health not hard to find a 25 year old girlfriend. I personally say the age limit difference should not be more than 30 years. Look at leonardo DiCaprio. He does it all the time. If you make at least 2000 USD a month in phillipines your basically a rich man and in high demand. Just don't go after the super young girls who are 18-22 they are really stupid. Find girls in mid 20s they are wiser and more mature. Most filipinos are damn broke and many are womanizers drunkards. Filipinas rather deal with rich older man than locals with problems. @@supernova7819
Your showing a bunch of stunners here! But you nailed it. Empty headed women everywhere in Cebu city. I’ve been there about 20 times for work and I’ve yet to crack the code! 1 out of 4 trips result in a temporary win… I don’t envy you for hitting it up chasing the dragon. It’s a rough go mate. But once you strike gold, you are hooked!
With her looks no words necessary mr. Bigg world!!! A swim in the ol pool and a Netflix and chill session would be in order and the rest one could only imagine!!!!
Great! had to laugh all the way through. I have lived for the past 15 years in Colombia and the dating app / online dating game is exactly the same! So many similarities. Looking forward to a few months in PH later this year. Keep the wonderful stories coming!
Even though you are new to the city, as a 58 year old man dating a 20 year old take over, and make plans. You tell her what the plans are, and don't ask her what to do, and doesn't a 20 year even meeting you deserve 500 pesos for taxi and food for the kid?
100% correct The older foreign guy is always in control. Unless he doesn’t realize it Without saying a word, take her by the hand to the bed. Thats all there is to it in the phils
It's entirely understandable that she want to care for her family. The catch is that if she only cares about your money, then you know emotionally, instinctively, that when you need to rely on her (even a little bit), she'll be gone. The rub is that there is no negotiating this. All the signs are that she was entering into this arrangement with all the enthusiasm of someone sifting through dig crap for coins (and having to act like they enjoy the process).
OMG, Who the hell were you talking to on the asian dating sites? Sure people like you describe are there. But I had the opposite experience, Then again I ignored all the girls in their 20's. Since Im 47 I only took women in their 30's and 40's serious. Eveyone in their 20's contacting me I just said "you are too young for me". I waited until I found someone I really clicked with and we make each other smile and laugh every day. She is educated, she get even my deep jokes, speak fluent english. When I visited her she was so loving and caring. She never ask me for money (we have been together for 8 months), but she has a good job as supervisor for a power company. There are really good women out there, even on dating sites. Just not western women. They are the worst.
Somewhat intriguing but also predictable cuz I've been there and done it. My advice is guys if you're not fresh out of the shower if your hair is not cleanly cut or if you have a scraggly beard get yourself in shape because Filipinos don't admire unkept hair or a sweaty body.
Another gem sir. You are a deep soul as they say. I could relate to almost everything you said. The physical attraction will just not keep up with our higher selves lol. I too love verbal intimacy with a woman as the carnal will not satisfy me. As much as their beauty is intoxicating, it is short lived for me without the poetic dance of our minds.
Some would say R.Sole, but thanks for the compliment and kind words. I agree with you entirely, as revealed in another soul searching instalment heading your way Squire.
Dude- I hate to say it, but you can't expect a hot girl in her 20s to chase a guy in his 60s. If you were open to dating women in their late 30s or 40s you would experience what younger guys experience with the girls you want.
@@BiggWorldCinema It actually makes sense. Smth I was thinking about. U want HER to take care of YOU, like women and children want and expect from their fathers and husbands. AND u want her to look like a 20 y o swimsuit model. THAT woman u aren't even getting if you're a fit and hot 20 y o man my friend... :( - Isn't it easier to make yourself richer as to be able to afford that comfort and leisure. Then u can just finance that 20 y o hottie or two.
@@BiggWorldCinema why? lol im 58 and would NEVER consider dating a woman above 45 .. personal to each man i know .. however you at 60 61? could easily be dating very attractive women 35 to 45 there who would be GENUINELY interested in YOU .. i realize you were obviously chasing women much younger like your date here and all the power to you btw (not my thing for any kind of relationship personally) .. dating choices for you don't need to be 60+ or only 20 something as some commentators here seem to allude to .. PLENTY of attractive educated working women 35 to 45 in the Philippines just looking for a great guy like you sir .. btw new subscriber and really enjoy your excellent content!
Plan to avoid using debit and credit cards. Seems it’s too easy for them to be compromised. Having worked and traveled, Always carry a lot of cash. I make it a point to never get down to the last peso.
I took me 2 months to understand the online dating dynamics in Philippines. Many ladyboys not saying they are ladyboys, a few scammers here and there, and girls looking better on pictures than in real life. So yeah it works well when you understand it but be selective and ask any question when you are in doubt to avoid costly mistakes. And yeah you can't avoid the fact that younger ladies are massively overusing social medias those days which gives them some social awarkness sometimes.
I extensively appreciate you. The details were thorough. I learned a lot. I am about to explore finding a forever wife. Just subscribed. Blessings brother.
If you want to invest in a Filipina that you care about, give her 60,000 PHP and tell her exactly what to do with it. See what she does and then you'll know if she's loyal or not. My girl did exactly what I told her too with money I gave her, she's so trustworthy.
I don't think Philippines in general is a country where ladies in majority are very outspoken. As a European I understand that we often have this tendency to think that an assessment for the right candidate should be characterised by lengthy interviews, but in the Philippines this isn't always the case, and I don't necessarily think this is the only way things should be. I have this observation and correct me if I am wrong that perhaps you take yourself a bit too seriously rather than just relax let things happen, put expectations aside and give Filipinos more understanding after all you decided to live in a country which is culturally much different than yours. Personally, if the girl asked me for 150 pesos id just gave her because many of those people really need it. It is fine for you to look for a Filipina who will meet your expectations and I am sure there most likely is one, but i don't think it's ok to expect people to align with what you'd like them to be , or to somehow your lense is the good and correct one and others not.
Your point is valid but there are guys that are just too thoughtful for that. I am one of them. I was married to a Filipina. She was educated, a nurse and very kind. I would have stayed with her for life but it did get unbearable at times. She just didn't have much to say to me and said she felt intimidated. I think Filipinas are more into talking with their girlfriends. She was into me because she loved physical intimacy and just being around me. It just ate at me though. So long story short, some men are more into verbal communication and emotional connection ironically. Not many of us but some🤣🤣
Really enjoyed this one, your casual narrative, your visual prosody. Very James Joyce. This common, slice of life narrative becomes strangely transcendent, like a parable, deeper than its parts. Your profile montage in the beginning. Zhasha's arc from beginning to postscript. This is good writing. Your high contrast photos in the trike were particularly lovely. Some lives are good ones. All seem worth trying to understand. Each is our own making. Well done.
Haha. Yes you have described my recent go at online dating. Hard to get a conversation started and they seem uninterested so i move on. That's after i've worked through the 80% ladies that are scammers. I think best policy is going to be the old fashioned boots on the ground. Thankyou for your content. Its has answered alot of questions. Keep up the good work. Very informative.
I met some really nice Filipinas on Facebook not a actual dating site. There some fake pages but if the fb account has been open at least a couple years you should be good account should be real.
😂 Comical.. The problem a guy WILL HAVE if he is older and she is young (VERY), she will not have any experiences of her own to offer during your conversations (uh, interview). One of the things I try very hard to do (after being married to a Filipina for 9 yrs - now divorced 10 years ago) is to ask/make sure she (ANY WOMAN) has “something to bring to the table” other than LOOKS and/or youthfulness. I was young myself back then so I mistakenly assumed we would figure things out “together” - WRONG!! Today, I would focus on an older woman, within 5-10 yrs to my age, not in her 20s unless you feel you want to constantly be in that “teaching” mode and have nothing in common except YOUR money.
the gentleman is now about 60 61 i think as he said he was 58 when he met this girl in 2020 .. personally i have 0 interest in dating a 20 year old AND 0 interest in dating a woman 5-10 years younger at my age which is 58 currently .. my filipina is a 37year old elementary school teacher .. beautiful .. mature .. and with life experience at her age but still younger enough that i can find her physically attractive .. i do agree with your sentiment tho .. the point here imo is there has to be an equal level enough of maturity between both partners in the relationship .. if so, then that's a good starting foundation
Wise advice as someone in the Navy been to PI back in its haydays of the 1980s last visit 2008, and older , a pretty face and rack is not the complete package, no kids , not married, and family not killing you for your life insurance money.
Idk, I get messaged 1st all the time and I can’t get em to leave me alone 😂. I’ll be visiting my homeland in October, & looking forward to meeting and greeting. They do date to marry, and that’s our culture, you guys gotta remembered, you’re not the only guy in her inbox. She’ll be chatting with multiple hundreds of guys. She will respond if she likes you. If not, move on to the next.
Great honest story telling, really interesting and insightful to the whole experience. I think there was a bit of cultural mis understanding on your part. She came to meet you and stayed with you for the whole day, she didn't have money and you did so it's fine to be paying if you're interested. The sad thing is the next day she may well have needed phone credit so she could continue texting and talking to you and you just went silent. I totally get the apprehension on your part, but I don't think she was trying to fleece you at all. She probably had no money to buy credit and felt you didn't like her because you had gone silent. At the of the date maybe she felt it was not quite a match but she still got in touch the next day. And testament to that is that years later you both met again. I don't think she had any bad intent. And fair enough to get a tattoo if she didn't like a mole. Sorry it didn't work out. You guys looked great together.
Great video! - Kinda harsh at times, but I completely get it. - And dude, she has a house full of family. Her job is to rope in as much foreigner revenue as possible and bring it back to the tribe. They're likely all in on it..
great story mate. I assume you should know by now that Filipina girls in dating apps (at least most of them) are not the girl you would be looking for. Lots of intelligent ladies out there that won't let your wallet dry
People often like to talk about themselves, just staying focused on getting her to talk it the way to go initially, and would not expect them to ask lots of questions initially, after all, you want to get to know them, right?
After my experience of visiting the Philippines many times if you visit cities like Cebu many expats drink in bars and are friendly with other expats also many have a wife or girlfriend and they have siblings or cousins wanting to date a foreign man . I have dated nice family orientated girls that work in malls or have full time work but many work 6 days a week -there are scammers and gold diggers so just be a bit careful - Gd luck - Gd luck if you are going going to the Philippines Philippines .
Not a hater... i find myself watching your stuff now and then... ive been to the PI a few times, dated a Pinay thats a Hotelier in Dubai a few years....i know the game and whats what... my tip to you is not be clingy... you end up with girls that are above your paygrade as it is...up your game...get a better hairstyle and lose the coke bottle specs...don't be cheap, keep your head on a swivel, good luck
I find it interesting you described her eyes as "slanted" even though for an Asian her epicanthal fold is ever so slight, minimal at best with a pretty equivalent eye size to yours. I always felt non-Asians have this hypersensitive awareness of Asian eye shape as a mixed Asian guy. That's all. Interesting storytelling.
Thanks for your appreciation. She was one of the first filipinas I met and I still feel that her eye slant is more alluring and different to other filipinas. Maybe it was her make-up!
i'm curious, and maybe i missed it...but do you not video chat these girls first before meeting them? and haha, i had a brief interaction with one of the girls you posted. almost certain it was a fake account.
I think when you chat with a girl online it's about chemistry and communication most girls In the Philippines age difference is not a issue living in the Philippines over the last 10 years off and on and a few relationships in the Philippines I can judge if the girl is genuinely interested in me and not a Gold Digger digger I'm very wise to all the tricks and no many ex pats that was taken for prize fools- when the m in the Philippines I live moderately but comfortable and don't go trying to impress with money girls with children are always looking for some financial support and a better life style but don't get fooled in to supporting all the family I am generous to a point but not a fool - All this online I love you ? Be careful meet then you know if the girl is for you or not meet her family and her friends but never empty your bank account or invest in land not in your name or invest in a family business you will loose your money 💰
Great content as usual, quality of video and music in a step up from you average philopines blogger, love the English humour, with the long hair sorry you do come across a bit creepy sorry, you will pull more birds with a good hair cut, mind you totally punching there 😜
You are such a jerk! Have you even asked the permission of these women, before posting their pictures in here? You are so full of yourself, that you fail to realize how hard it is to have a little one, hers even sick, left at home. Well that speaks alot about you. You don't deserve her. A man should put a woman first before himself, in all aspects. I am a Filipina, and I take offense in the way you said that women in the Philippines does not age well.😅 I am almost 39, and still 🤟!🤪
Great content I'm stuck in manila right now I missed my flight back to blighty due to heavy rain flying from bohol 6 hours delay 😑 Could think of worse places to get marooned... 😂 Booking another flight for Monday 🎉
Hm, hey there Big World..., uhm, have you ever thought about what life is for the person you date? If you were in her clothes/situation, how would u see life? What would you think about the 58 y o dude coming to date her? Have you ever looked at yourself beside her in the mirror? U get what u pay for, or u get as much out of life as u put in..., if u want perfect model looks u'll have to provide a lifestyle where she will be able to maintain her looks. If u expect her to work hard, take care of you and her baby etc, she won't look like 20 for very long. Hm, if u squeam about 30 php here and there at 58 y o dating a knockout 20 y o..., I seriously dunno what you expect to find in life? And about Filipinas not being imaginative and interested to text...., well i you look like u and are your age and she looks like her being 20 y o, as a young beautiful woman having her inbox flooded with messages from men from all over the world..., what do you expect them to do other than briefly glance over your (self)-'important' message? I'm not knocking you..., I just want u to see the world from their side as well. If u provide nothing but you, u'll ofc get someone on the same level of interest AS YOU, perhaps decent looking 40 y o, 35 at best. If u want that life partner that will be curious about you, ask questions and not wanna lean on your financially..., am I the only one to understand that here or? Wonderful vod. Loved the story and photos of u together!! - Hm, go for the dream friend, but also realize and open your eyes to that the other person also is trying to realize her dreams or alleviate her pain..., u must serve a purpose, or no one is really gonna wanna team up with you long term.
Time will tell in any relationship. Here in the States, 6 months is a reasonable waiting period for true colors to shine through. In the PI it seems women reveal their ulterior intentions faster.
there is pretty good value in 1st impressions (sadly). you had the basic sense of all that would unfold within the 1st 1+ hour or so ha... and the 2nd meeting confirmed it. If you had done "more" it would have been a money thing afterwords. But the good news... so many wonderful fish in the sea.
You spend hours with a beautiful single mother living in the agony of poverty and you can't pry 500 pesos of your wallet? I would have giver her a 1000 pesos. Its $20! She leaves happy and appreciated instead of hopeless and needy. Seriouly? Thats where your compassion is at?
@BiggWorldCinema 2K on her? 2K on the date while you were giddy having a beauty that swallowed all her pride and attached yourself to an ogre for the date. You should have spent 1K on your bliss and spared her time away from Baby. You should have dropped her off at home from your cab. Have no illusions. You are just as unattractive in Cebu as Britain. The only difference is how desperate Filipinas are. All their compliments about you being attractive are hollow. "She seemed far away sometimes. I wonder why?" She's a single mom in a harsher environment than you have ever been in. A possible way out fading. What could she be troubled by? I know it's not your fault, but you're in her world. It would have been nice to help a bit. 🙏 Sasha.
20 Dollars is a little bit much but i agree with giving her 10. After listening to this experience I believe his mistake was following her every wimp anyways. He probably had some good jokes on the online side but after meeting her and his description i can only imagine him acting like a total simp. There is no way any girl with a decent character would fall for that. Example for some No Go commentaries: U have so tiny hands.... .Wow ur so beautiful I cant get enough. I like ur eyes.... I bet u have given these fishy lines without even thinking that through. How to do it right give complements that are unique and u really mean. Like I like the shape of ur eyebrows the clothes ur wearing (Name one thing), the way u made ur hair... everything is better than what u did. If u like her small hands why not say it u ask? It is just a weird thing to say with that age gap and lowers the way a girl thinks of u... . Well gl anyways guys. I think this Story is a nice realistic experience of online dating anyways.
It funny that you don’t pay extra 1000 pesos for extended on visa but happy to use credit card to pay for coffee . I’m used to use credit when I’m first come to Philippines but not any more bank fee are so expensive . Plus each time you use credit the A TM you are using will change you a fee as well .
I had no choice to pay with c/c as I had no cash left. This was 3 years ago when I'd just arrived in the Phils. Just use cash now. There's no ATM fees with Starling Bank a/c withdrawing from HSBC. Where are you based?
Sounds like you're a nice guy but not great at dating or communicating with women. It's much better to meet women offline, and talk them in a relaxed but confident way to get a bit impression of their interest level. Also I think it's a mistake to let tradional women make all the choices about where to go and what to do, they're expectiing you to be a leader even if you're in a new city you can be like nah I don't like sea food or nah i'm not hungry now.
lol I learned a long time ago never trust a profile with only one or two pictures…get their IG and do video calls is the best you can do and then STILL could get a fake one 😅
@@cseosborn892 Don't be silly. Some apps say please for people's privacy please refrain from taking screen shot. Let alone take them and publish them on youtube. So you get real .
Good vid..👍 I got a few to catch up on... "A man's face is his autobiography. A woman's face is her work of fiction" ...... Yep, I've had a few shocking experiences meeting em where the profile pic didn't match.... 20 kg heavier and 20 years older 😂 One even had two front teeth missing.... *Crap Game*
Im surprised you say filipinas dont start conversations or contribute to them. Ive been on christianFilipina for about a month and atleast 20 filipinas have written me, none of the ones I talk to have asked for money.
Good story. You still dream or do you regret to have asked for any service before you paid all day ? It was just you escorting her for a vacation day. Period.
Sorry about the late response. I'm afraid Cebu city is not wheelchair friendly. You're probably better off in Iloilo with it's lovely Riverside Walk. Filipinas are generally caring, so I don't think you'll have problems finding anyone.
Sha2x is a single mom and from a poor family. She doesn't have a job yet. Maybe she got a problem for the fare to meet you since she didn't have a fare going back home. You should also take into account or consideration her current situation and give the benefit of the doubt if she's being truthful. She definitely needs financial security from a man that would also accept her son. Don't jump into conclusion that all she wanted from you is your money. Maybe what she needs is security. And if you have been understanding and generous, your relationship may grow and will be able to know each other better. She is gorgeous btw. 😉
money brings security, so ultimately it’s all about money. single mums are big no no. Why should anyone be burdened with an another man’s responsibility?

Beautiful narration of the story with video. Surprise you don't have more subscribers.
Not unusual for a Filipina to want to bring a family member or friend with her for a first meetup
Better to limit the first meeting to lunch. Discuss meeting the family at the second date.
Wanting to get anything free!
They love free things!
With her looks no words necessary mr. Bigg world!!! A swim in the ol pool and a Netflix and chill session would be in order and the rest one could only imagine!!!!
Welcome to dating Asian women, this is all so relatable after living in Asia for 8 years
Glad you related to it. Did you end up settling with someone?
Your english humor works like an antidepressant,…thank you,…I had to like and subscribe 😀✨👍✨

great story by a very good story teller. Very relatable. Best 30 minutes spent on youtube in awhile. Keep up the good work.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your appreciation.
Great! had to laugh all the way through. I have lived for the past 15 years in Colombia and the dating app / online dating game is exactly the same! So many similarities. Looking forward to a few months in PH later this year. Keep the wonderful stories coming!
Thank you for sharing your story - it helps people make better decisions
A new word came into my mind: D.O.A. Date On Arrival.
Saves lots of time....😎
Even though you are new to the city, as a 58 year old man dating a 20 year old take over, and make plans. You tell her what the plans are, and don't ask her what to do, and doesn't a 20 year even meeting you deserve 500 pesos for taxi and food for the kid?
100% correct
The older foreign guy is always in control.
Unless he doesn’t realize it
Without saying a word, take her by the hand to the bed. Thats all there is to it in the phils
Totally true. You need to be generous in these sort of situations. Also the age gap was too great. 20 years max.

It's entirely understandable that she want to care for her family.

OMG, Who the hell were you talking to on the asian dating sites? Sure people like you describe are there. But I had the opposite experience, Then again I ignored all the girls in their 20's. Since Im 47 I only took women in their 30's and 40's serious. Eveyone in their 20's contacting me I just said "you are too young for me".
I waited until I found someone I really clicked with and we make each other smile and laugh every day. She is educated, she get even my deep jokes, speak fluent english. When I visited her she was so loving and caring. She never ask me for money (we have been together for 8 months), but she has a good job as supervisor for a power company.
There are really good women out there, even on dating sites. Just not western women. They are the worst.
A genius story teller always aloof but descriptive....Jealous of your freedom 😁
Somewhat intriguing but also predictable cuz I've been there and done it. My advice is guys if you're not fresh out of the shower if your hair is not cleanly cut or if you have a scraggly beard get yourself in shape because Filipinos don't admire unkept hair or a sweaty body.
Very true. Dress smartly aw well.
@@cseosborn892 I have heard if you dress too well you are more likely to be a "Mark" to thieves, no?
@@KevinVenturePhilippines Depends where you are located upscale, dress nice, poverty areas dress shabby no jewelry and look more unkept.
Good thing I'm interested in Filipinas.
Another gem sir. You are a deep soul as they say. I could relate to almost everything you said. The physical attraction will just not keep up with our higher selves lol. I too love verbal intimacy with a woman as the carnal will not satisfy me. As much as their beauty is intoxicating, it is short lived for me without the poetic dance of our minds.
Some would say R.Sole, but thanks for the compliment and kind words. I agree with you entirely, as revealed in another soul searching instalment heading your way Squire.
Enjoyed the story and video. Thank you
Dude- I hate to say it, but you can't expect a hot girl in her 20s to chase a guy in his 60s. If you were open to dating women in their late 30s or 40s you would experience what younger guys experience with the girls you want.
i think he does not remember how he was himself at 20yo...
I was chasing women in their sixties.
@@BiggWorldCinemawe all doubt that. Stop chasing these 20 year olds. Of course they don’t want you and just your money.
@@BiggWorldCinema It actually makes sense. Smth I was thinking about. U want HER to take care of YOU, like women and children want and expect from their fathers and husbands. AND u want her to look like a 20 y o swimsuit model. THAT woman u aren't even getting if you're a fit and hot 20 y o man my friend... :( - Isn't it easier to make yourself richer as to be able to afford that comfort and leisure. Then u can just finance that 20 y o hottie or two.
@@BiggWorldCinema
why? lol im 58 and would NEVER consider dating a woman above 45 .. personal to each man i know .. however you at 60 61? could easily be dating very attractive women 35 to 45 there who would be GENUINELY interested in YOU .. i realize you were obviously chasing women much younger like your date here and all the power to you btw (not my thing for any kind of relationship personally) .. dating choices for you don't need to be 60+ or only 20 something as some commentators here seem to allude to .. PLENTY of attractive educated working women 35 to 45 in the Philippines just looking for a great guy like you sir .. btw new subscriber and really enjoy your excellent content!
Plan to avoid using debit and credit cards. Seems it’s too easy for them to be compromised. Having worked and traveled, Always carry a lot of cash. I make it a point to never get down to the last peso.
I took me 2 months to understand the online dating dynamics in Philippines. Many ladyboys not saying they are ladyboys, a few scammers here and there, and girls looking better on pictures than in real life. So yeah it works well when you understand it but be selective and ask any question when you are in doubt to avoid costly mistakes. And yeah you can't avoid the fact that younger ladies are massively overusing social medias those days which gives them some social awarkness sometimes.
I extensively appreciate you. The details were thorough. I learned a lot. I am about to explore finding a forever wife. Just subscribed. Blessings brother.
LUV your candor! Well done!
Excellent info!!! Great content. So true.
Very well done vid. Is there a magic amount that she’d take a month to be happy company and not annoyingly needy?
Cheers! The average filipino wage is less than $200 a month and they're actually "working" to earn that. So maybe 5000 pesos will suffice.
I’ll take two then. 😅
@@DaveReno-rn6iv JUST ? This are firesale prices.
If you want to invest in a Filipina that you care about, give her 60,000 PHP and tell her exactly what to do with it. See what she does and then you'll know if she's loyal or not. My girl did exactly what I told her too with money I gave her, she's so trustworthy.
I don't think Philippines in general is a country where ladies in majority are very outspoken. As a European I understand that we often have this tendency to think that an assessment for the right candidate should be characterised by lengthy interviews, but in the Philippines this isn't always the case, and I don't necessarily think this is the only way things should be. I have this observation and correct me if I am wrong that perhaps you take yourself a bit too seriously rather than just relax let things happen, put expectations aside and give Filipinos more understanding after all you decided to live in a country which is culturally much different than yours. Personally, if the girl asked me for 150 pesos id just gave her because many of those people really need it. It is fine for you to look for a Filipina who will meet your expectations and I am sure there most likely is one, but i don't think it's ok to expect people to align with what you'd like them to be , or to somehow your lense is the good and correct one and others not.
i talked with them for 6 month and i think they lack any sign of intelligence ...
Very well said muh man
@@doctorinvizible2077 They have no intelligence whatsoever.
Your point is valid but there are guys that are just too thoughtful for that. I am one of them. I was married to a Filipina. She was educated, a nurse and very kind. I would have stayed with her for life but it did get unbearable at times. She just didn't have much to say to me and said she felt intimidated. I think Filipinas are more into talking with their girlfriends. She was into me because she loved physical intimacy and just being around me. It just ate at me though. So long story short, some men are more into verbal communication and emotional connection ironically. Not many of us but some🤣🤣
good insight, makes me think a little...thanks
Really enjoyed this one, your casual narrative, your visual prosody. Very James Joyce. This common, slice of life narrative becomes strangely transcendent, like a parable, deeper than its parts. Your profile montage in the beginning. Zhasha's arc from beginning to postscript. This is good writing. Your high contrast photos in the trike were particularly lovely. Some lives are good ones. All seem worth trying to understand. Each is our own making. Well done.
You are a poet.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Don’t worry, you’ll always meet another beautiful Filipina in person who you can have a good conversation with again. Probably many more…
Haha. Yes you have described my recent go at online dating. Hard to get a conversation started and they seem uninterested so i move on. That's after i've worked through the 80% ladies that are scammers. I think best policy is going to be the old fashioned boots on the ground. Thankyou for your content. Its has answered alot of questions. Keep up the good work. Very informative.
I met some really nice Filipinas on Facebook not a actual dating site. There some fake pages but if the fb account has been open at least a couple years you should be good account should be real.
😂 Comical..
The problem a guy WILL HAVE if he is older and she is young (VERY), she will not have any experiences of her own to offer during your conversations (uh, interview).
One of the things I try very hard to do (after being married to a Filipina for 9 yrs - now divorced 10 years ago) is to ask/make sure she (ANY WOMAN) has “something to bring to the table” other than LOOKS and/or youthfulness. I was young myself back then so I mistakenly assumed we would figure things out “together” - WRONG!!
Today, I would focus on an older woman, within 5-10 yrs to my age, not in her 20s unless you feel you want to constantly be in that “teaching” mode and have nothing in common except YOUR money.
the gentleman is now about 60 61 i think as he said he was 58 when he met this girl in 2020 .. personally i have 0 interest in dating a 20 year old AND 0 interest in dating a woman 5-10 years younger at my age which is 58 currently .. my filipina is a 37year old elementary school teacher .. beautiful .. mature .. and with life experience at her age but still younger enough that i can find her physically attractive .. i do agree with your sentiment tho .. the point here imo is there has to be an equal level enough of maturity between both partners in the relationship .. if so, then that's a good starting foundation
Wise advice as someone in the Navy been to PI back in its haydays of the 1980s last visit 2008, and older , a pretty face and rack is not the complete package, no kids , not married, and family not killing you for your life insurance money.
Totally, they will use you as their ATM . It’s called prostitution when they expect money for their bodies .
Very interesting to hear your experience and how you felt about it. I have a target on my back too!
Idk, I get messaged 1st all the time and I can’t get em to leave me alone 😂. I’ll be visiting my homeland in October, & looking forward to meeting and greeting. They do date to marry, and that’s our culture, you guys gotta remembered, you’re not the only guy in her inbox. She’ll be chatting with multiple hundreds of guys. She will respond if she likes you. If not, move on to the next.
Great honest story telling, really interesting and insightful to the whole experience. I think there was a bit of cultural mis understanding on your part. She came to meet you and stayed with you for the whole day, she didn't have money and you did so it's fine to be paying if you're interested. The sad thing is the next day she may well have needed phone credit so she could continue texting and talking to you and you just went silent. I totally get the apprehension on your part, but I don't think she was trying to fleece you at all. She probably had no money to buy credit and felt you didn't like her because you had gone silent. At the of the date maybe she felt it was not quite a match but she still got in touch the next day. And testament to that is that years later you both met again. I don't think she had any bad intent. And fair enough to get a tattoo if she didn't like a mole. Sorry it didn't work out. You guys looked great together.
Great video! - Kinda harsh at times, but I completely get it. - And dude, she has a house full of family. Her job is to rope in as much foreigner revenue as possible and bring it back to the tribe. They're likely all in on it..
Thanks for your appreciation. Yeah, took me awhile to figure that out. Fortunately I've still got my fortunes. Of sarcasm.
great story mate. I assume you should know by now that Filipina girls in dating apps (at least most of them) are not the girl you would be looking for. Lots of intelligent ladies out there that won't let your wallet dry
Great story. Really. However, you worry too much about what she is thinking. Way. Too. Much.
Sounded like he just wanted conversation to me.
People often like to talk about themselves, just staying focused on getting her to talk it the way to go initially, and would not expect them to ask lots of questions initially, after all, you want to get to know them, right?
After my experience of visiting the Philippines many times if you visit cities like Cebu many expats drink in bars and are friendly with other expats also many have a wife or girlfriend and they have siblings or cousins wanting to date a foreign man . I have dated nice family orientated girls that work in malls or have full time work but many work 6 days a week -there are scammers and gold diggers so just be a bit careful - Gd luck - Gd luck if you are going going to the Philippines Philippines .
Thanjs for your advice. Girls who work are a better option.
How mani relationship in the same moment have gold diggers?
Love your stories, you are hilarious! Yeah, a cleavage tat or any tat is a no-go for me.
Great story!
Cheers Henrik. Have you similar experiences yourself?
Not a hater... i find myself watching your stuff now and then... ive been to the PI a few times, dated a Pinay thats a Hotelier in Dubai a few years....i know the game and whats what... my tip to you is not be clingy... you end up with girls that are above your paygrade as it is...up your game...get a better hairstyle and lose the coke bottle specs...don't be cheap, keep your head on a swivel, good luck
I agree 100% lose the coke bottle lenses, whoever gave him advise to buy those deserve to get fired. lol
I find it interesting you described her eyes as "slanted" even though for an Asian her epicanthal fold is ever so slight, minimal at best with a pretty equivalent eye size to yours. I always felt non-Asians have this hypersensitive awareness of Asian eye shape as a mixed Asian guy. That's all. Interesting storytelling.
Thanks for your appreciation. She was one of the first filipinas I met and I still feel that her eye slant is more alluring and different to other filipinas. Maybe it was her make-up!
i'm curious, and maybe i missed it...but do you not video chat these girls first before meeting them? and haha, i had a brief interaction with one of the girls you posted. almost certain it was a fake account.
I do now. I was 58 then, young and carefree.
@@BiggWorldCinema The first thing anyone should do. Or u'll get catfished. 80 % use filters to begin with, a few are not even the person in the photo.

Coll story, bro, especially "two and a half years later" I was still keeping her phone number...
You never know when you may want to phone someone.
Very accurate assessment of pinalove et al
Really helpful video. Thank you
I think when you chat with a girl online it's about chemistry and communication most girls In the Philippines age difference is not a issue living in the Philippines over the last 10 years off and on and a few relationships in the Philippines I can judge if the girl is genuinely interested in me and not a Gold Digger digger I'm very wise to all the tricks and no many ex pats that was taken for prize fools- when the m in the Philippines I live moderately but comfortable and don't go trying to impress with money girls with children are always looking for some financial support and a better life style but don't get fooled in to supporting all the family I am generous to a point but not a fool - All this online I love you ? Be careful meet then you know if the girl is for you or not meet her family and her friends but never empty your bank account or invest in land not in your name or invest in a family business you will loose your money 💰
The Best One Is The Next One.

Great content as usual, quality of video and music in a step up from you average philopines blogger, love the English humour, with the long hair sorry you do come across a bit creepy sorry, you will pull more birds with a good hair cut, mind you totally punching there 😜
LOL. So ture. 58 years old. Time to put the surfer dude look away.
Do what makes you happy, lifes too short 😊
Very true. Getting shorter as well.
She was obviously thinking about her son .. her lack of money.. her situation overall... can u put yourself in her shoes. Try it..
I know. Just needed milk for the baby. I thought her breasts fulfilled that.
You are such a jerk! Have you even asked the permission of these women, before posting their pictures in here? You are so full of yourself, that you fail to realize how hard it is to have a little one, hers even sick, left at home. Well that speaks alot about you. You don't deserve her. A man should put a woman first before himself, in all aspects.
I am a Filipina, and I take offense in the way you said that women in the Philippines does not age well.😅 I am almost 39, and still 🤟!🤪
Good video. First time I’ve heard of you. First time you’ve heard of me too no doubt 🤣🤪
You've been on my radar for years.
@@BiggWorldCinema ah good to know 🤣
They may not say it but they really don't care for facial hair. Do as you wish. She is very attractive.
I know. I didn't have any facial hair on the day I met Zhasha.

I'm stuck in manila right now
I missed my flight back to blighty due to heavy rain flying from bohol 6 hours delay 😑
Could think of worse places to get marooned... 😂
Booking another flight for Monday 🎉
She aged 10 years in those 2.5 years. It’s tough life begging and scamming men all the time.
Having also added a mindless cleavage tat.
Hm, hey there Big World..., uhm, have you ever thought about what life is for the person you date? If you were in her clothes/situation, how would u see life? What would you think about the 58 y o dude coming to date her? Have you ever looked at yourself beside her in the mirror? U get what u pay for, or u get as much out of life as u put in..., if u want perfect model looks u'll have to provide a lifestyle where she will be able to maintain her looks. If u expect her to work hard, take care of you and her baby etc, she won't look like 20 for very long. Hm, if u squeam about 30 php here and there at 58 y o dating a knockout 20 y o..., I seriously dunno what you expect to find in life?
And about Filipinas not being imaginative and interested to text...., well i you look like u and are your age and she looks like her being 20 y o, as a young beautiful woman having her inbox flooded with messages from men from all over the world..., what do you expect them to do other than briefly glance over your (self)-'important' message?
I'm not knocking you..., I just want u to see the world from their side as well. If u provide nothing but you, u'll ofc get someone on the same level of interest AS YOU, perhaps decent looking 40 y o, 35 at best. If u want that life partner that will be curious about you, ask questions and not wanna lean on your financially..., am I the only one to understand that here or? Wonderful vod. Loved the story and photos of u together!! - Hm, go for the dream friend, but also realize and open your eyes to that the other person also is trying to realize her dreams or alleviate her pain..., u must serve a purpose, or no one is really gonna wanna team up with you long term.
Yes, she's gorgeous!
Very informative...good job
As all us Westerners fear, there is no way to weed out the opportunists from the genuinely legitimist daters.
Time will tell in any relationship. Here in the States, 6 months is a reasonable waiting period for true colors to shine through. In the PI it seems women reveal their ulterior intentions faster.
When she asked for a load you should have written, if I buy you a load will you take my load ? 😂
How would you rate your overall experience at the Mabolo?
Was it clean and well run?
It's not they don't know humor, but its a language barrier they don't know other cultures humor yet but do learn it after awhile
Great content, thanks
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
there is pretty good value in 1st impressions (sadly). you had the basic sense of all that would unfold within the 1st 1+ hour or so ha... and the 2nd meeting confirmed it. If you had done "more" it would have been a money thing afterwords. But the good news... so many wonderful fish in the sea.
Your sarcasm makes me laugh ......keep up the reality check as many of these men need it.
You Brits are so good with words. 😃
You spend hours with a beautiful single mother living in the agony of poverty and you can't pry 500 pesos of your wallet? I would have giver her a 1000 pesos. Its $20! She leaves happy and appreciated instead of hopeless and needy. Seriouly? Thats where your compassion is at?
Listen to the narrative Richard. I'd already spent 2k on her. I didn't have 500 pesos left. How much dating have you done in the Philippines?
@BiggWorldCinema
2K on her? 2K on the date while you were giddy having a beauty that swallowed all her pride and attached yourself to an ogre for the date. You should have spent 1K on your bliss and spared her time away from Baby. You should have dropped her off at home from your cab.
Have no illusions. You are just as unattractive in Cebu as Britain. The only difference is how desperate Filipinas are. All their compliments about you being attractive are hollow.
"She seemed far away sometimes. I wonder why?"
She's a single mom in a harsher environment than you have ever been in. A possible way out fading. What could she be troubled by?
I know it's not your fault, but you're in her world. It would have been nice to help a bit.
🙏 Sasha.
20 Dollars is a little bit much but i agree with giving her 10. After listening to this experience I believe his mistake was following her every wimp anyways. He probably had some good jokes on the online side but after meeting her and his description i can only imagine him acting like a total simp. There is no way any girl with a decent character would fall for that. Example for some No Go commentaries: U have so tiny hands.... .Wow ur so beautiful I cant get enough. I like ur eyes.... I bet u have given these fishy lines without even thinking that through. How to do it right give complements that are unique and u really mean. Like I like the shape of ur eyebrows the clothes ur wearing (Name one thing), the way u made ur hair... everything is better than what u did. If u like her small hands why not say it u ask? It is just a weird thing to say with that age gap and lowers the way a girl thinks of u... . Well gl anyways guys. I think this Story is a nice realistic experience of online dating anyways.
😆 😂 😆 😂 i really enjoy your dry humor
It funny that you don’t pay extra 1000 pesos for extended on visa but happy to use credit card to pay for coffee . I’m used to use credit when I’m first come to Philippines but not any more bank fee are so expensive . Plus each time you use credit the A TM you are using will change you a fee as well .
I had no choice to pay with c/c as I had no cash left. This was 3 years ago when I'd just arrived in the Phils. Just use cash now. There's no ATM fees with Starling Bank a/c withdrawing from HSBC. Where are you based?
@@BiggWorldCinema I’m in Caloocan Metro Manila
Sounds like you're a nice guy but not great at dating or communicating with women. It's much better to meet women offline, and talk them in a relaxed but confident way to get a bit impression of their interest level. Also I think it's a mistake to let tradional women make all the choices about where to go and what to do, they're expectiing you to be a leader even if you're in a new city you can be like nah I don't like sea food or nah i'm not hungry now.
I always find your content to be useful and informative but constantly switching into the overly childish or heavy English brogue is very off putting.
Thanks for your input.
It's all about how big your wallet is old son, these dating sites are a total scam
lol I learned a long time ago never trust a profile with only one or two pictures…get their IG and do video calls is the best you can do and then STILL could get a fake one 😅
Not sure you should be putting profile pictures of chicks from dating sites without there permission.. You could get yourself in troublr Mr biggs
Don’t be silly.
@@cseosborn892 Don't be silly. Some apps say please for people's privacy please refrain from taking screen shot. Let alone take them and publish them on youtube. So you get real .
Good vid..👍 I got a few to catch up on...
"A man's face is his autobiography. A woman's face is her work of fiction" ...... Yep, I've had a few shocking experiences meeting em where the profile pic didn't match.... 20 kg heavier and 20 years older 😂 One even had two front teeth missing....
*Crap Game*
Dude this is spot on hahaha mine went Tampo on me for half a day because she had a bad dream about me 🤣🤣🤣 i just laughed and went out for a bit
Awesome use of profile pics.
Awesome video
That's mostly all over the world with women... "...ask two questions in one text and get only the answer to the last question"! TRUE!
^..^~~
Been there done that many times....thanks for the laughs
this was over 3 years ago?
Yep. Thanks for spotting and paying attention. Other commentors saying "get a haircut dude" are 3 years behind.
Im surprised you say filipinas dont start conversations or contribute to them. Ive been on christianFilipina for about a month and atleast 20 filipinas have written me, none of the ones I talk to have asked for money.
Was the Philippines not in lockdown back in 2020 ?
Yep. Entirely. But not for my first 3 weeks it wasn't.
I can relate to many things about the online dating things.
Good story. You still dream or do you regret to have asked for any service before you paid all day ? It was just you escorting her for a vacation day. Period.
Its always a red flag if different problems arise involving money. Be careful of too much drama.
NOTE : Your descriptions of Filipina girls also apply to other Asian girls, so it is not just a Filipino thing!!!
Do you mean "filipina" thing?
😂 you got a way with words, 😅brother!
Thanks for the appreciation!
Kamusta, Two questions; is Cebu city wheelchair friendly and how would the average Filipina women feel about dating a western man in a wheelchair?
Sorry about the late response. I'm afraid Cebu city is not wheelchair friendly. You're probably better off in Iloilo with it's lovely Riverside Walk. Filipinas are generally caring, so I don't think you'll have problems finding anyone.
Sha2x is a single mom and from a poor family. She doesn't have a job yet. Maybe she got a problem for the fare to meet you since she didn't have a fare going back home. You should also take into account or consideration her current situation and give the benefit of the doubt if she's being truthful. She definitely needs financial security from a man that would also accept her son. Don't jump into conclusion that all she wanted from you is your money. Maybe what she needs is security. And if you have been understanding and generous, your relationship may grow and will be able to know each other better. She is gorgeous btw. 😉
money brings security, so ultimately it’s all about money. single mums are big no no. Why should anyone be burdened with an another man’s responsibility?
I cant stop laughing listening to your story so much confusion😂.. She is pretty though.
You were 10 dollars from have a pretty girl of you dreams…. I spent the 10 dollars and have been together for 10 years…..😊❤
Hardly. The girl of my dreams doesn't want load or regard me as a cashpoint. But as long as yr happy paying that's fine.
Why would u expect her to show up at airport alone.... you're still a stranger
I wasn't expecting that at all. Pay closer attention to the narrative.
Great show man....entertaining, humorous, and informative....👍🏽
