    and they say no matter what you mix with filipino blood, the end result is always good i still hope i'll have one.

    as for me, i dont see myself with another filipino. and i have always hated our weather and polution, it's killing me slowly. it's for health reasons too since i'm diabetic. i like cold, rain, snow and sunshine. i want a place with 4 seasons thats why i love it when my choir travels. it made me addicted to airplanes.

    i may not get my white picket fence but i dreamed of taking care of a family in a nice setting. i love cooking, gardening, pets, im the DIY kind too, not afraid to hold a hammer, i split things to know how to put it together hahaha.

    a plain jane but can be glamorous when needed ^_^
    Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

    Whatever is meant to be will always find its way.

    Not sure why my missus went for a foreigner because she was horrified by the idea when we first met, but after a lot of chasing, taking her out on dates and plying her with red wine, she eventually came around to the idea and fell in love with me. She'd probably have been happy with any nationality if they treated her right, including Filipino.

    Same as Ricky, I think the idea seemed quite absurd to her when we first met. She saw me as nothing more than a penpal at first, at least until I said I'd like to visit her and try and win her heart.

    It was never planned ..i just call it a fortunate accident meeting my husband and after years of deliberation we finally got married..

    It was more of his character/attitude/values/faith and degree of hilarity that knocks me off my feet and makes me fall in love even more each day and him being a (whitey/blue eyes/sexy) is just a bonus!!!

    same as you te grace its not on my vocabulary or dream to have foreigner husband.. my family status, were in middle class.. so i dont really need to marry a foreigner.. bcoz we get want we want coz dad is working abroad.. just got also facinated seeing white babies on english movies/commercials, tv's.. love the color of their eyes and brown/blode hair.. but i realized its not jst all about that, now i am married' and its all because of LOVE and what my husband really is...

    Same here, i never intend to fall inlove again after the death of my husband. This was changed when i personally meet my fiance in 2008. Its just very fortunate that we meet and then fell inlove,,,, i fell inlove with him because he treated me right. And you right Ma'am Sars, its more of the character and attitude...,and very passionate...

    Why most Filipinos choose to marry a foreigner

    I would think that is way off reality, in that most, probably practically all, marry fellow citizens. I can't find the statistical info though.

    I have four VERY handsome young nephews who are half Filipino and I am very proud of them. Two have been in TV commercials so far, one of which is still being screened in the Philippines but the oldest has decided not to pursue his latest offer from Jollibee as it's not good for his street cred!

    I never expected to be married to a foreigner or local. You see, I already had two kids from previous and different relationship. Happy and enjoying the freedom and independence of a entrepreneur/single mother. Getting married was never in my plan in the first place. I was skeptic about marriage and thought of it as only a piece of paper that will hunt anyone who get into to it and wants to get out. But when I met my hubby it changes everything in an instant. I fell in love and keep loving for more, and being married is the greatest in the world. I even got cold feet the night before we got married.
    Life as we make it
