The first time I sent my missus money, before we were married that is, it was for her air fare to Manila to meet me there. I sent her a bit more than P5000 and when we met in Manila, she offered me the change from the P5000. This to my mind is more typical of a genuine Filipina.

Thanks, Iain, and I've noted that your remark about finance is consistent throughout this board. A valuable lesson well learned, but I have to say again that requests for money only came in this last month when her situation became more difficult. And I believe that to be true.

But, true or not, there's no problem for me to accept whatever comes my way on this or any other decision I make. Still, the more I read and respond, the more I feel that the right lady is not so far away or out of reach... and might well be a tonic when I'm ready. Thanks again.
