You must be kidding, my wife didnt mix much for the first couple of years, busy with children etc, but she now has a good social life. There are so many filipino s around now but she mixes with any nationality.
There are some though, from the P.I. that seem to get a bit up theirselves as they start to earn over here, but most are o.k. Wherever we go my wife seems to bump into a filipino. The men though are something else, relatives over here are great but at parties most of the men huddle in a group doing their macho thing, fags and whiskey.
Although most of my wife`s friends are fili s, not to the exclusion of anyone else. We go to rugby functions, school do`s etc and she is a hit where ever she goes. Encourage your wife to mix and it will be rewarding.
Keep her out the shops though, and i would steer clear of bingo and the one arm bandits at Southend, she love`s a gamble
How to tell whose a filipino when your out, just go pssst and see who turns around.
