Looking for UK-based companionship/friendship or more

[Terpe]

The ladies in the Philippines are different.
They look different, they act different, they carry themselves differently, they speak different and they think different.
They are Philippine ladies in the Filipino culture.

Not all, but most of those that end up in UK tend to integrate rapidly and in the process lose far too much of those attributes that made them Filipina.
They become British.
The characteristics and traits that are so beguiling tend to get diluted.

As an ex-pat living in Davao, I've also changed, in a good way I hope. I definitely don't make value judgements so much, especially about people. I seem to somehow have time to understand much more about the details of life and people here and find the chaos far less daunting.

I don't feel the slightest bit homesick.
The majority of Filipina's living in UK tend to have a hard time with feeling homesick. It's a sign of the huge difference in cultural values, daily life and food.
Their homesick feelings gradually fade as they assimilate to their new environment.

I wonder if that applies to tampos?

Did you find that trait beguiling ?


Tampo takes some understanding, if you do understand it then generally you should find it pretty easy to manage.
It's not at all malicious. If it becomes so then it's not Tampo and you'd be best advised not to continue in that relationship.

Beguiling isn't a word I'm certain of the meaning. Used sparingly around these parts.
