Let's face it, it happens in the Philippines like it happens in Paduka, Ohio.
So nothing strange there apart from the shock the panic, the scare, and the relief of being still alive and in one piece.
Give the lady the benefit of the doubt for now, and find out slowly what her precise intentions in regard to the LDR are.
Keep a tight rein on the money for a while, profess some hardship or the other, IRS or what have you... to check wether she is treating you like her personal banker or otherwise.
If she mentioned her "pay", it might not be all lost on your front, it could be a genuine claim, as Pinays are extremely good at budgeting the home finances and she is panicking because the Confirmation or First communion clothes for the child are of paramount importance to her.
And if it is true, the clothes will have been made to order,(and awaiting payment on collection) to show family pride in the child's most important day. And if so, they won't cost a cent less than a couple of thousand pesos.
To re-iterate....
Give her a chance or three, just enough rope .. so that she might hang herself with... or not, which ever is the case.
Most important tho....
Go back there and talk face to face with her..... Besides it will come useful as proof of relationship...
Nothing beats that....
Good luck.
Welcome aboard
