Old guy here married to a lady from Cebu for coming up on 11 years. Just a thought: avoid the "professional daters" you mentioned. It's hard: people can and do lie. When I was searching for my wife I screened through hundreds of Filipina's and I am not exaggerating. When it came down to a final decision it was down to my wife and a lady who worked as a real estate broker in Manilla. My wife worked for the government in Cebu,has a degree and speaks 4 languages. That the one I didn't choose was from Manilla was the deal breaker for me. "Manilla girls" have a well earned reputation for being true gold diggers. Not worth the risk for me. That wife and I have been together for 12 years and married for 11 says it all. Enjoy life partner: I had a heart attack last week and dealing with that as we speak.

I met no women in the Philippines in the month I was there. I'm a 66 year old single (never married) American with a modest amount of assets (enough for the Philippines). I'm in good shape, I'm polite and quiet. I felt like I was on the dark side of the moon there. No one would even have a conversation with me. The hell with the country and the hell with the people. I'm never going back.

Why does everyone say “it’s transactional” when it comes to dating in Asia as though it’s not transactional in the US.

My opinion is that any man who is considering the Philipines should just live life and experience the beauty of the nature that the Philippines offers, integrate with the local culture and people. Just travel with an open heart and at some point when the time is right, a good relationship will present itself. And it’s also my opinion, that many of these foreign men really don’t have any experience dating in the own country, but think that they’re going to come here and be gods when they enter the Philippines. That is not the way it is 🙌 Men need a reality check. Most men would never get the caliber of young beautiful Filipina girl in their own country 😎
