    I've dated a few Filipinas in my time. You have to establish the ground rules from the beginning. I'm 6'2" (188cm) and don't like riding in Jeepneys. I prefer to get a trike or taxi. Still, a trike is uncomfortable for me as my head bangs on the roof. Jeepneys and trikes are not designed for tall, western men.
    Dating: It's different dating Filipinas. They are shy and difficult to read. Novices will end up paying for a family outing or for several of her friends. Filipinas are addicted to their phones and want to take pics of everything. I oblige, but I kindly ask them to put their phone away. If not, I pay the bill and walk away. You will soon understand only one in ten Filipinas are worth pursuing. Similar to dating in the West.
    Be careful, as a one night stand may quickly develop into her family knocking on your bedroom door. Tread with care.
    Don't get me wrong, if you find the right Filipina, she will change your life. They tap into your masculine energy and make you a better man.
    My suggestion is to not have too many expectations, relax, and enjoy the attention you will receive. It's great!

    A Filipina who is a good match really is a dream wife. The problem is that they are located on the other side of the world. I got lucky and met my wife in the US and frankly, its not that much different than an American girl for me except, I felt she was trust worthy and very capable as we traditional wife who is an anchor in the family. I know she was a better first time mother also, as she seemed to automatically know how to raise children. So, yes, they are very attractive, fun and excellent wives and moms. They are feminine, dress classy and a very good companion and partner in life, they way things used to be, many years ago.

    It really is that easy to date there. For any guy fat, old, weird, bald, doesn’t matter. Don’t pick the first one and stay single for a 6-months to a year at least! Don’t ever give money for any reason besides pay for food and 100 pesos for trike money. She asks for money beyond that block her immediately.

However, I still see Filipina women and some from good families in the provinces that are still formed in the old pattern and family oriented. Our son is married to a traditional Filipina for 4 years already. They seem really good together.
      I do understand the situation out there. However, there still are traditional women in the Philippines. Like I said, my son is no exception but I will say that I do see the provincial girl stereotype as having some validity. You can still find college educated women in the provinces also and thats a good formula if you can find it. Also a mid thirties Filipina can be great (pre TikTok).

So now almost two years later, & after watching 100 different utubers from the Philippines on how easy and great the women there are I been planning to come there and settle down with a loving feminine younger woman for a peaceful life, But after watching your videos lately on all the batshit crazy woman there, and also renting a girl it sounds like the same sht What’s a man to do ???
