Filipinas are molded to have strong family ties...in effect, this made her to have strong attachment to a family she builds. As a Filipina also, I think it would be just natural for me to be very considerate also of my partner's well being and condition. Normally, a filipina cannot just leave husband (be it pinoy or foreigner) behind to get a good vacation somewhere else. It would feel like a part of you is missing, and your mind will always be thinking of him....In effect, you cant really fully enjoy the holiday because in your heart, you know and feel that it would have been better if husband is with you on that holiday.
