When I worked on the cruise ships; many of the Filipino men would engage in relationships with people despite being married, and would often spin a few lies.

I know of other similar situations second hand. This is no real reflection on the Filipino society, more of a normality amongst cruise ship employees (I only know one Captain that wasn't divorced at least once, and thats only because he had an open relationship).
This probably isn't the case with your boyfriend, but please do have your eyes wide open.
Thanks but I've worked on the same ship for 7 years so I know about ship life and land life ; ) I have in fact been to The Ph met his Dad and his sisters and his wife and kids when they were visiting from the province hundreds of miles away from where my boyfriend and his family live.
