I don't know if this is true of all Filipinas and their families, I'm just going off my 2 experiences with girlfriends here. The first one obviously wanted to get married asap, and had a major strop the last day because I hadn't proposed. Her and her family went completely overboard to make me feel at home and welcome. This time, I get the impression my gfs family are a bit wary of me if anything, just curious of my intentions I guess. I think they're warming to me more now they can see how serious I am about their daughter
I know most filipinos are naturally friendly, but with the first experience it was definitely OTT and all for the benefit of getting their daughter/sister married off to a foreigner. I'm not saying any guy who goes over and meets a friendly family is being sucked up to for that reason. I'd just be a bit suspicious myself if I went through that again.
