If I didn't talk to someone for 5 months, I sure as hell wouldn't want to marry them the first week they say hello!!
If fall out like that before marriage, it'll get worse when your together 24/7, I may be wrong, but I know others that have been strange situations in relationships that haven't worked out.
Do you know what she has been doing for 5 months? Not pregnant by someone else is she??
I'd leave the application till January, and get some recent paperwork together to support it, and it'll also give you a little bit more time to think everything through.
Remember their are around 5 million Filipino girls looking for hubby, so make sure you've picked a good one, you can't take it back later!!
