I have a question, and i guess it's a question of culture.

Is it a difficult thing for a filipina to say "i love you" in the same way as a westerner may say the words?

I ask because i find that it is more loving for a filipina to say "have you eaten today", or "how is your day today" or "i am happy to talk to you", than to say the words "I love you"! I was talking to a chinese friend tonight and he told me that in his culture - and in his village, its very rare to hear a husband and wife say "i love you" to each other, but they will be happily married for a lifetime!

Another question . . .

Do you think it's possible to love someone unconditionally??

I guess that all human love is transient and only an almighty and perfect love can be unconditional right?

From the experiences of you men who are married to filipnas (or long term successful relationships) -- or to you filipinas . . .

What is the best way to express love to a girl of the philippines - in addition to saying "I love you"??

is there a better way to show love instead of just talking about it?


Anyway,
i guess i said i wouldn't post for a while, but i guess i need to ask these questions!

so i look forward to all your helpful replies!

blessings
