    Seems to be a national pastime, getting drunk while the wife works... seen it in our Philippine family too. One, who is mid 40s, loves the gin, has yellow eyes and I keep telling him to stop drinking as his liver is flucked. Ignores me. The Mrs already knows we aint paying his hospital bills when it happens...

    I dont blame you,no way jose would i pay his medical bills if he is an adult self-harming,you already gave him advice which is STOP,if he cant heed it let him go wherever he is going in the afterlife,his choice.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I agree 100% but that still does not stop the pressure the inlaws will often apply to the other half without the husband even having a clue...They will apply the "Utang na loob" principles relentlessly.

    The "wife" will usually have to accept the husbands decision but privately she will be in utter turmoil as it`s in their blood to assist their family in need.. Ive seen Filipina`s take second jobs or secret high interest loans so that they can fund family assistance..
    At times they will secretly send the money by hook or by crook and the old man will never even know.

    I know,i put on here years ago a story of a guy i know whose wife went behind his back because of that relentless chinese water torture drip....drip.....drip of give me......give me.....give me..... she eventually got a huge loan,so large that no way was her husband never going to find out,if your borrowing 10's of 1000's of quid from a bank theres no way on gods earth can your husband be unaware of your utang na loob utang,their marriage broke up understandably and i dont think she has been back on holiday for around six years.................She simply cant afford it

    I think i am lucky my sons only half pinoy and the family are loaded.And also my kid doesnt take any crap so utang na loob is severely dilute in his bloodstream if its there at all
