That is a good thing.
Anyway in the Philippines, it is more common to see a Filipina who is married to an older foreign man than to see a Filipina who is married to a younger foreign man.
People think that these young Filipinas are just using these men for their life to get better (to have a big house and live in luxury).
Most people think that it's much better to marry an old man as they have money, receive pensions, and they will likely to die soon...(not a very nice thing to think isn't it? The man is not dead yet but it sounds like that his grave is all ready for him).
I think few of these "scenarios" are true, and false for those who really fall in love despite of the big age difference.
When people in my town found out that I am engaged to a 28-year old foreign man, they asked me why a young man....? According to them, a young man doesn't have any money, no house, no savings and changes shirt so quick. I told them that I love my fiancé and I can't afford to be in a relationship with a man just for the sake of his money in the first place. They said that I am foolish for using my heart and not my head. They said that if I'm marrying a foreigner, it should be an old one so my future is brighter. Such a shame but that is how people back home judged my relationship. We haven't buy any land nor a house in the Philippines yet, and my mum still cooks and sells her food in the market to make some extra money----people said that this is because I married a young man and life for my family could have been a lot better if I married an older one.
I just ignore everything that they say and carry on living the life I chose to have, besides at the end of the day, this is my life, not theirs.
One day my girl will find my birth certificate.
I love my old man grahamw48 only because he is a sex machine .
No comment.
I agree. Weve done our share of providing Keith
Perhaps in the future a swap shop could be organised...it'll save us the tedious hours trawling through these dating sites again.
Strangely enough, the ones already here having gained citizenship and freedom are generally looking for potential partners their own age. Strange that.
Do you really want to hear my booooring explanation gwapito?
Here it is then.....
It is different in the Philippines because there's not a lot of single young foreign men that comes and visit the country for a holiday,work or in search for love. They are far too much busy with their work and would maybe rather choose a holiday in countries like Amsterdam,Australia, Ibiza Spain...etc.
Mostly, the one that comes in and out of the Philippines
are the retired foreigners who are on their holiday enjoying their pensions or the ones who want to settle down in the country permanently or the ones who are already married to a Filipina. So meeting a younger foreign man there and fall in love with is very unlikely to happen as there's not a lot of them around the country. (It still happens but not very common). What is common there is meeting an older foreign man as there are lots of them in the country...especially the retired ones who can afford a holiday...who got not work to come back for...so Filipinas who aim to marry a foreign man and get out of the country just settle for what is available. There's not so much of choices I suppose wherein here in the UK, Filipinas here got lots of choices....fishes are everywhere kinda type of thing.
I am not entirely sure about that.. If you ask me that question personally, I would say that it's not for me....not my cup of tea ... But most people said that older men have lots of life experiences, they are more wiser, more considerate ,will spoil you so much with love and care, will give you everything,very tolerant and .....How is it Filipinas find much older men more attractive?
Poor Nick-he is hoping to find a new love and everyone's on a bout bonking their ladies,talk about rubbing it in
