Sure if I go to the Philippines I don't mind treating my wifes family because I have more than them but they don't ask me and besides the love and hospitality they shower me with when I'm there is priceless.
My money is hard earned and i am not about to throw it at a family in some far off province
My house is nearly paid for and that is not on offer for some sweetheart who might come here and get the magic stamp and then demand half of everything after a couple of years with some good advice from her new pinoy friends she meets in the uk

its not just one bad experience actually its many that i have seen and know about
of course you enjoy the hospitality given to you in the philippines but everything comes at a price
A cynic would say that the only reason you are given such a warm reception there is because they know that sooner or later you are going to start parting with some money and thats what makes them happy

I must say that i find it all a bit strange that some of you guys on here seem to have met the only woman out there who never asks anyone for any money
