Hassle Free Filipina Relationships

[gracia143]

You can't really help who you fall in love with.

But if the person you love carries baggage, and you are not prepared to accept this, then you have no business in starting a relationship with that person.

So in a sense it is matter of being mature and committed enough to enbark on such a relationship.

That's a very good way of putting it Dom. I must admit I got a bit upset reading this post, I mean I do know Keith's sense of humour by now but this one was said in a quite serious manner. He's got a point there though, I wouldn't advise brothers or sisters or friends to get into a serious relationship with a person that has got extra baggages but don't we all deserve a second chance? Don't we all deserve to be happy? I and my husband went through a lot of troubles, defying odds, fighting the government so I can get a Visa to visit him, the annulment, and then there's the fiance' visa which took ages and I had to go to the embassy and give them a piece of my mind before they can release the 'damn thing', then there's the baggage issue on his side when I finally got here. But to sum it all up, I'd do the same thing again if given the chance to start all over.

I don't know, yeah maybe this thread will help other people to avoid getting into a serious relationship with a baggageless person, I hope.

good to see you back gracia, thought you might have been deported with your temper

your right thou, my misses had more baggage than terminal 5, easy to walk away, and look for an easier path. but at the end of your journey you look back and think we got thru the hard times, didn't sway from the path, oh hang on is this part of an obama speech

all i can say, if they mean so much to you, then they will do anything to be with you, and if they will not, then they are not worth it

Hi Joe! I'm not deported yet, I may have a temper but I know how to control myself. I'm on here most of the time still but I often chose to just read and observe rather than post. I've been keeping myself busy with two jobs (and Uni) as like all of us are already aware of, Filipinas have loads of baggages with them even when you married them as 'single'. When I arrived I had to find ways to support them from day one...the whole clan, the whole barangay and sometimes even friends. I work but most of my salary ends up being given back to the Phils., one time the guy from PNB told me off saying I should leave something for myself. Maybe one day I will learn to harden my heart and not give in to their wishes? For now, I have no answer to that but Trev has been very understanding and always being very supportive, I still consider myself lucky he has chosen me despite the baggage which I didn't kept secret when we first met.
