Grass is not greener on the other side....it's just a different shade of green! Communication is the key....sounds like her communication with her husband is close to zero. Filipinas that move to the West are often poisoned by Filipinas that already live there and get to know in their first couple of years.

[@Mirajill0909]

I love that..the grass is just a diffrent shade of green.

[@kpham8789]

My points of view on the grass is greener on the other side is that some time it is true. Most of the time the it is greener is because it had been fertilized with a bunch of bullshits.

[@adolfushitler7870]

Rochelle are you a filipino ?

[@VistaLatin]

Excellent point.. I live in San Diego CA, near a naval base, there are many Filipinas there who simply bounce from one income to the next... However, I also have friends whom are happily married to Filipinas and they are wonderful wives... so in my opinion, you have two extremes.. those who are gold diggers "birds of a feather", and the excellent wives.. no in between...

[@deltaworf]

yep. lolok looks like she made the 5-year period for becoming an American citizen.. when you go to Disney World you never bring Minnie Mouse home.. Same accord when you go to the Philippines you never bring them back home , they'll leave you. .

2 rules - Never, ever bring a filipina to the US if there is a large age gap. Rule 2, when in doubt re-read Rule 1.

[@jamesrobert1440]

+ipmala do not talk to filipinas online..!! 99% have bad intentions. talk to filipinas in person never online.

[@insane360simracingwithwayn4]

Agree 100 %

[@insane360simracingwithwayn4]

Although there are few successful marriages but there's also lots that aren't successful especially to those older men with a very young wives.

[@DLeske]

Segi, I see that is true in the US where we are at near Seattle, when I see an old man with a much much younger magunda Filipina wife... many of these women simply do not look happy or will look at other men. But, when we are in the PI we see that they seem to be more attached to these old men. Maybe because these old guys could cut them loose and not support them if they are not faithful. Bakit hindi. Opo, once they are in the USA as a resident, the women can do okay on their own if needed much easier than in the Philippines. Segi na?

[@dougblythe5358]

Julie, actually there are far more successful marriages than unsuccessful. It depends on the people involved and their upbringing. Since I am a part of this rather large group, I can speak from experience, we know literally thousands of successful marriages, but it takes both parties to make it work.

[@melodyr.5111]

Mark Melanson , we don't know the real situation . It can go both ways too ! If the husband is an a$$hole to his wife . I won't blame her for leaving him . But in a situation that the wife is having an affair with another man then that's a total disgrace! I won't have respect for that woman !

[@manoliskalergis1367]

Mark Melanson You are right. I am only wondering how somebody could get married to her. She is not pretty and as I understand her character is not good as she only wants to use men. Like most of philipino women.

[@MikeFuryTech]

Beautiful, thoughtful advice. I'm impressed and thankful that people like you are in this world.

[@christopherstimpson6540]

I married a girl from Mexico. She is 22 years younger than I am. She left me for a younger man, got her USA citizenship and I bought her a house, new car and all that. We are still friends. Life is too short to waste time with those who are not happy.

[@gavino2250]

Great video Mira! I met my wife who is a native Filipina here in California USA, very hard working woman. We've been together now going 12 years, she's 20 years younger than me, she was 24 when we met do the math. Beautiful person, the greatest thing about us is that we both grew as a person. She had a average minimal paying job when we first met, I had a great paying job but somehow those differences were the catalyst that allowed her to grow her maturity that today scares me how she has caught and surpassed me in her wisdom. She worked hard to move up the ladder where she works, she is now a high ranking Patient Services Manager at a hospital. She also hac a great desire to travel and see the USA and see historical venues, me I was much of a travel type guy but I grew to enjoy it very much, to this day we spend a lot quality time talking to each other about a variety of topics. We share everything we do, in our lives there is never "I" it's always "we", we have a beautiful boy now 10

[@teclife4]

girl,don't listen to your friends ,especially when they tell you to leave your husband. they are not really your friend.your main concern should be trying to work things out with your husband and building the relationship and if he is a sweet guy,keep him cause the states is full of dogs. you will end up regretting it.

[@Mirajill0909]

True.

[@delroseford221]

Agree!

[@josiegarcia994]

everything that girl said about her husband are just an excuse to leave him because she found someone new. that's what happened when you are married and you entertain boys around you, there's a possibility that could develop into something. plus her friends are not a good friends at all, giving her a no moral advice.

[@llooyyd1]

Maybe many of her friends are giving her a moral advice but she only hears those who tell her to do what she wants to do. That is the smartness of MiraK. To be honest: I am undecided on this matter. It's in the game if you bring a younger Filipina to your country. She does become Americanised: a woman who would rarely be happy with an older man. We can not judge someones desires.

[@bluesbrother2678]

The way a woman thinks is how her friends and companions think. The greatest indicator of how a woman will do, is how her friends are doing. Women regardless of country, do whatever other women are doing, third wave feminism, go MGTOW!

[@Cloud-ib8zl]

Blues Brother I thought Filipinos never get divorced

[@Cloud-ib8zl]

I guess that change when they come to America

[@bluesbrother2678]

@Gregory In the Philippines they can't get a divorce, but bring them to America and they can and they do. I married a Filipino in the Philippine's, and all she did was use me as an ATM machine and she ran with other men behind my back. I left her ass in the Philippines and stopped the monthly payments when she mentioned another man who was paying her bills. I replied you can have him, and by. That was my last contact with her. Also, I am not and old man, I was 39 when I married her. They all are just like Western women, use a man and when they find a better sugar daddy or when they get their green card it is by by baby.

[@trainrecked]

Very nice "babble," Mira....you are wise beyond your years...and seem to be a sweetheart...are there many like you? :)

[@rasputinswalloper475]

No, but there are people like you ... one born every minute.

[@Rick101755]

A lot of these younger girls that marry an older foreigner are looking for a way out of their country. Most of the relationships do not work out when the guy takes them back to their home country. If you are going to have a young girl for a wife it best to stay in the Philippines and sometimes that doesn't work out either.

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

+Rick White in the Philippines I agree with what you said, this story should be a wake up call for us old guys who yearn for a younger lady,I will be getting married soon and there is a 25 year age gap,I would not dream of taking her back to the UK. If the age gap is big,then the best chance for that relationship to work,is stay in the Philippines.

[@Rick101755]

+A Brit in the Philippines Chris Wren. Very true. I have heard of so many relationships not working once they take them back to their home country. Especially if there is a big age gap. There is only 19 years difference between me and my girl but I have no plans on moving back to my home country. I like it here better anyway. :-)

[@dennisdeberry2582]

The down side of being an older foriegner married to a pinay and living in the Philippines is that you have the family right there. You can not get away from then. Its not like they are are ocean away and they are bugging your wife for money by email or or phone or letter and then she is bugging you. if you live there then they can come right to your house and bug both you and her. If they are living in another province then you will be surprised that they do not have enough money to eat but somehow they found enough money to MOVE to the city that you and her are living in.

[@Rick101755]

Not all situations are like that. I have been with my girl for two years now and not once has any of her family ask me for anything. All of her siblings have jobs. Her parents are deceased. The only money I spend is on my own family.

[@karmacanquints4222]

Sadly it's true...I am not generalizing but some Filipinas think that older foreigners means stability or greener pasture. A source of financial support to the family. While some older foreigners think that Pinays are great caregivers, someone that will take care of them when they retire or get much older or until th wry die. It's like that they are taking advantage on each other's condition. Again I do not generalized.

[@garyslo-pokeguillory8543]

MAD RESPECT FOR YOU! GREAT advice. I was not expecting what you said. You are very wise for your years.

[@marcusallen99]

she need to stay with her man ofcourse if she works she needs to pay some of the bills

[@nhorlymm]

I'm a filipina & married to a white guy. Meet him when i was in college. We combined our earnings, bills, etc...Communication is really important in relationship & I pick my friends wisely. Before we have kids I partied a lot with or without my husband, going to bar with my friends, but I know my limits. My husband is pretty laid back & somewhat boring but I love him. So, if i have something in mind I laid the plan & we discuss. Sometimes you need to step up, don't wait for your husband to do all the planning! Intimacy lacking? Do the first move, your younger and perhaps more active than he is, with a nice lingerie, it might motivate your husband.

[@chiuapug10]

Shailene Shaisha or she could use some feminine wash to make it fresh and edible for her husband. Lol jk

[@goygoogi3215]

Not all pinays are the same hint for you guys study carefully the family backgrounds educated families are better and some pinays are ignorant about foreigner the way they look at foreigners are rich they have car in their country which only good paying job in the Philippines can have it but they don't have any ideas the lifestyle in another country it's all credit card you have to work hard a lot of bills to pay not like in my country if you have no car there is another option for transportation! I admit a lot of pinays they look foreigners as a source of money! But mind you try courting pinays whose not ignorant lifestyle abroad it's another story! Aware of reality of lifestyle in another country you'll see the difference! A guy once offered me sending money I dumped his offer I told him you don't have to send me money you need it most I'm single and I work hard for my own living!He's a retired army ! Best thing if all the siblings of the girl sides is working that's a big bonus to a foreigner the family won't depend only to the girl married to a foreigner! And you're not obligated to give money (girl) it's up to you whether you give or not!

[@Gclique]

I know you're not religious, but I'm going to say this anyway: "God Bless You Mira K". Your advice to this young lady is so wonderful. I pray she will Listen! & Understand!. You truly are an Angel my dear.

[@retired5249]

You can take a girl out of a bar....but you can't take the bar out of the girl. I am never taking my GF to the US ever! also.....never marrying her. Stay as long as you want and if you get bored...don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. This story I am hearing now is the same story I am hearing about all 3 of my friends.

[@Mirajill0909]

i always hear that. I always hear that.

[@retired5249]

It is 90% true. There might be 10% that are good and actually love you and want to have a family. But what I have seen with so many guys is the girls are way much younger 20 years to 40 years younger. They only started working in the bar to make money to help their family, or in some cases there husbands and children. They won't tell you they are married, they will just string you along. I got lucky and met a retail cashier but her sister is a bar girl and she is totally a user and can not be trusted. So, my recommendation living here now 5 years as an American. Find a girl that doesn't work in a bar and that is no younger than 15 to 20 years than you and you be in in your 40's when you meet. If you are already in your late 50's or 60's...look for a good 40+ girl, she will love you. Just my opinion.

GREAT ADVICE! Thank you very much for the insights!

[@jack75146]

Spot on with this advice Mira. On traveling, " Invite him, if he doesn't want to go then go with your friends. " Invite him, that is such a beautiful thought. All of what is listed in response to the young woman's concerns is something she should take into consideration. " Maybe I'm babbling for you. " Sure if the person who asked doesn't want to hear the wisdom in every word spoken here. I truly appreciate what was said here and I'm sure if this young woman who is so very uncertain about keeping her relationship with the mature man she married five years ago, wants to find a way to keep it alive, the way she seems to, then she will take this advice to heart and look at her husband from a new perspective. Good luck young woman in whatever you decide.

If he is 52 and there is a lack of physical attention it is either a health matter or he is aware of what you are planning. Most younger men are not looking for a dependent so you will probably find yourself out on your own. Good luck.

[@stephenbond6127]

That is some wise and compassionate advice you gave. I love what you said about not only cheating on your spouse...but you damage yourself as a result. finally to paraphrase what you most accurately stated: "If your going to leave him, let him know so he can find someone better than you. unfortunately, I've seen some men here treat their girlfriends and wives as though they should be submissive and only attentive to their own needs. they bring a Filipina to their own country with no effort to even try to learn the language or celebrate her culture. I tend to sense that more where the age gap is wider...not all, of course but I think more often than not. thank you for your candidness.

[@joshuacollins7398]

[@sheilarobertson3580]

Sometimes things just don't work out. Doesn't matter how old you are or where you come from, relationships change. Expectations can be high from both men and women. I know you're saying stay and work it out, but sometimes you've got to know when to say goodbye, cherish the memories you had with person and move on.

[@dennisdeberry2582]

Mira K First welcome back. About this video.I have seen this happen so many time that I have lost count. The woman says they have been married 5 years so more then likely she has a green card so she can stay in the U.S. as long as she wants as long as she is not convicted of a felony. So now she starts listening to those other Filipinas here in the states that have married some guy and left him. And if they are in a Community Property state. and unless he was wise enough to get her to sign a prenup she gets half of whatever he has!!!!! I have seen and heard of this story happening so man times. In fact there use to be this nightclub in here that was a unofficial meeting place for Filipina that married U.S. servicemen to exchange stories and advise on how to dump or cheat on their husbands. Anybody here that has been stationed in San Diego will know where I am talking about. If you went in there any Thursday night( Ladies Night. Ladies got in free) you would swear you were in the middle of downtown Manila.

[@Mirajill0909]

I love learning these stories,atleast people would be aware of what is happening.

[@dennisdeberry2582]

She is also probably listening to other Filipinas that she has met since she came to the states. That have a older husband(and in some cases a husband of the same age) that let them just keep all the money that they earn at their job and not contribute to the bills. This happens all the time. In fact I recall another Filipina here on youtube that had married a second generation Philippino-American and moved her to the states after they got married. Lets call her Joy (not her real name). joy was shocked and so ashamed . one day she was over another married filipina's house here in the states.This woman( Call her Leti ) was married to an american she did not work., her husband would give her all of his paycheck when he came home. . One day Joy was at Leti's house visiting and Leti's husband came in the living room and wanted to get HIS credit card to order a pay per view boxing match on cable. Leti (Right there in front of Joy) started yelling at the guy and saying that it cost too much and was a waste of money. Joy said she felt so ashamed and embarresed to be there. That this guy could not use his own money which he worked for to do something that he wanted.!!!!

[@oasisneko1]

Mira, the reason I like your videos is I lived in Japan for over 20 years and I know about a lot of the problems you raise. I think it is really important for people to know more about culture and social psychology. I would like to know more. You are really sharp and, in Japan, there is a very big need for people with your skills. Many people are unhappy. Their only recourse is to "suck it up". That's not very effective. I want to pose a challenge to you: please think about narcissism in Japan. I'm thinking about the tremendous pressure to conform and how that pressure stifles sincerity and human warmth. I believe there is a cycle of envy, apathy, shallowness, narcissism, shame, guilt, depression, etc. If you find the answer to this problem, you can help a lot of people! Please let me know.

[@1dir951]

You speak with the wisdom of someone twice your age. Very impressed. For the person that wrote with the question, perhaps she may want to see for herself instead of taking your advice. She needs to consider, before she tries anything, that in life sometimes we can want and try different things, and where no harm is done we can return to our prior comfortable surroundings. In this case, it doesn't sound like that will be likely. My experience on grass looking greener on the other side is, as with many situations in life, once you get there and see things more closely you'll see the same brown earth between the blades of grass. And because of the angle of looking down you don't see the bright greenness of the now vertical blades of grass. When you look back at where you came from you see that because you now see the blades from the side, they are bright green. It's just a matter of perspective. Now, as you said in different words, because you are standing in your field of grass, you could easily add the proper amount of fertilizer and water the grass with care. And then your grass will actually become greener than the the grass on the other side.

[@Mirajill0909]

I know.. But i have to be honest, i can also see other people's grass greener...

My aussie partner is also way older than me. He supported me in my education in Aus so i could get my nursing registration and could eventually work and be able to contribute. It means a lot to me. I am grateful. Whats depressing is that nearly two months now after having granted full work rights (awaiting partner visa), I still have not got a nursing job despite the efforts of job applications (hopefully the good news will come so soon). I badly want to be employed so i could cintribute financially to the relarionship. I am feeling depressed that i dont want him to feel that i Am comfortable being dependent on him for which i am not comfortable at all. He is a healthcare provider and we are aboth aware that he is financially capable. And i never took advatage of it in the sense of satisfying my own gratifications. Hes happy providing me the basic stuff I need for myself. I understand bec he himself is frugal and wise and a bit tight on himself. And im fine with it. There are just a few minor things that I dislke about him. And i try and understand partly bec of his age. Or maybe also bec i myself am annoying at times. Its not easy. We have a number of differences. Huge number. So, here I am trying to better myself for myself and to be a better partner to him. I will stay faithful to him til each others last breath. Despite the differences, annoyances, and the challenges, I love him.

[@PaultheSheik]

You seem to have a good heart. Things will work out, don’t stress yourself. Marriage is hard, it’s not always easy peasy.

[@hanal510]

I agree with you, if you get married you must share everything, having married is like a team, so being a team you must talk and share opinion to each other to make your marriage work, if you are greedy better to not marry because the day you decide and accept him to be your partner and marry him it means you wanted him to be on your side forever and it's about love and friendship why you marry him. I felt so sorry for the guy who is the husband of the girl of your topic... I am also a Filipina but i think this girl is so greedy when it comes of money, she better fix her mind. This is only my opinion... If you love your partner don't count the things or every cents you spent for the family, and don't marry a guy if you think you don't really love him, don't pretend that you like him/her even if you don't otherwise your marriage will be doomed.

[@Mirajill0909]

Yup,Hopefully she will wake up and realize how fortunate she is.

why would she go with him if she felt wrong about the courtship in the first place.

[@a1to177]

It's so refreshing to see her young lady with dignity and insight into some of life's most important principles. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your wisdom. It's so troubling in the United States that women feel as though marriage is a disposable thing but they can toss away and monkey branch from man-to-man sometimes just to better their financial situation sometimes for other motives that are equally as shallow. In life when you look inward and work on yourself and try and live on a higher set of principles whereby you treat other people the way that you want to be treated you will find that you are drawn toward other people with similar characteristics. I recently married a Filipino and we are working on getting her here to the United States now. We share of faith in God together and with the commonality we will grow together as a vine gross together because of this common purpose. I should say that you don't have to be religious to have this common purpose you just have to want to treat people well and to serve your fellow man to make the world a better place and to share with you chowder that effort through your lives. Again thank you for your thoughts and your insights you're doing good work.

[@shaka2010100]

Wow....what a genuine, mature, free advice. Best marriage counselor, understanding the multi-national marriage, the huge age difference, intentions of marrying, etc.... I really thought you might side on pinay wife before starting to listen your vlog. But I was dead wrong. If she had good intentions at the beginning of her marriage, she should listen to you now, to work it out. Anyway, congrats to your 3000+ subscribers. Well-deserved and more to come. BTW, I just arrived in ac 2 weeks ago to retire if visa gets approved. If I need relationship advice, I'll come looking for you...lol. Yoroshiku onegai shimasu.

hi im 70 an the girl ive been talking to for a few month is 32 im going over for her birthday in to weeks im hopping every thing works out

[@PaultheSheik]

Works out in what way? Get real James! Go in with your eyes open and realistic that a 32 year old woman will be incompatible with a 70 year old man on many different levels. Just be ready for any negative consequences.

[@michaelhennegan9637]

Love this girl!!! Mira, I'm coming to Japan, and I'm going to find you and bring you back to the US. You are so wise, speak excellent English, and are just awesome. Cute accent too! M

[@georgewoods5768]

Hello and thank you, sharing is important in a loving relationship!🤔🙂😘🌹

[@koreanmarco]

american friends, if she leaves you, after you brought her to USA, you can always come back n take another girl to US .

[@danlong179]

You are very wise, good advice to your friend!

[@sadsallenski]

you are totally right! i am married to american guy. we have a difficult time sometimes in our marriage but i love him so much thats why i never had a thought leaving him. if i feel that he has no time to me, i tell him frankly what i want so that way he has a chance to make up. hope she realize that her husband save her. hope everything work out with her and husband. thumbs up to you girl keep it up!

[@Mirajill0909]

Thank you so much, it is very relaxing to hear that from a filipina. i get bashed alot for this

[@MichaelSoothingASMR]

You have an excellent moral compass Mira, so sad that so few people think this way today, your advice was gold, platinum, diamond.

[@dougblythe5358]

Part of the problem, and I see this all the time, an older guy wants a younger attractive woman, something impossible in the US, unless the guy is loaded! In the Philippines it is possible, and happens every day, but the older guy thinks he has to lavish gifts on the young Filipina, he thinks he needs to "buy" her, (it's all subconscious) but in reality he doesn't, in fact I think it's a huge mistake. If he does this, he is setting himself up for failure, she will get used to the gifts he gives her, most of which she never had before. Also younger Filipinas, as they acclimate themselves to American life, will want to naturally explore the world around them, they will naturally seek out other Filipinas. If the hubby sits at home and lets his wife go out without him, he is making yet another mistake, he needs to show he is part of the relationship too.

[@emerydelrosario2987]

so for you're opinion are you still recommending a Filipina to engaged with a foreign men? or vise versa??

[@PaultheSheik]

If you’re close in age, or less than 15 years then no big deal. If more than that, be warned.

[@ewilliamson488]

My soulmate dumped me for a way younger woman. They married, had a child. They divorced and he told me he made a terrible mistake and wanted me back in his life. He found himself a woman young enough to be his granddaughter and is dating her. Both of the women were Filipinas. My Prince Charming is a toad.

[@joelevans6387]

Your aunts advice is very good wisdom.

[@duterteizanasshole186]

LOL feeling forced to share the bills? Isnt that what most married couples do nowadays? Wants to travel yet probably wants him to pay for everything. Filipina friends suggesting to her what she should do, fellas if you bring your Filipina to your home country for the love of god do not let her have Filipina friends. They will make her jealous and Filipinos have this weird thing where they will listen to whatever any Filipino says and just totally disregard you.

[@shineamenmbs3107]

Would haven't Athena, Minerva and Sarasvati already been chosen by Gods, we would have been so happy to chose you as a brilliant Goddess of Wisdom. Thanks a lot Mira K. Ingat palagi.

[@coiledsteel8344]

These scammers are like the Sirens of Greek Mythology, luring unsuspecting sailors to the rocks and doom.

[@iDYPilms]

Thanks for the Vid Mira. I check your vids for interesting topics concerning Filipinas/os abroad to study opinions and situations. Here is my 2 cents: I think younger and older dilemma is about the maturity level, it has to match upon introduction, it ought to have been determined at the beginning. Overall the vid is a good think. and yes "make your grass greener"; sufficiency is better than dependancy

[@wteo340]

I really want to tell this to my mhal. My mahal used to believe that I was obsessed with money, worried day in and day out, how to pay all our bills and expenses. She used to think that money could appear out of thin air, but now she understands. Mahal, gina gawa mo.. mahal.. mhal kita ng toto o

[@maeganlen7937]

I met an American guy in dating site which seeking for lifetime partner we've chat for a couple of months was 2007 til 2008 we've met personally till he proposed and we engaged but after he found out that was hard for me to take him to bring in the US he looked for another girl then he stop communicate with me till I saw in Friendster that he married the girl I was too hurt but I accept and I move on, then after 6 years he search me in Facebook and he said he was made mistake to left me and he married a wrong girl then he still want to have me but now I'm now here in middle east to work.

[@dresheraton9276]

Why did I come here...He is forcing her to share the bills...wtf....She is another female giving Pinays a bad name....MiraK thanks for keeping it 100...following you now.

[@dpamerica1422]

If she has never met him then how are they married?

[@rongrant7253]

Great advice. My wife is 28 years younger than me and she is working part time but she likes to contribute even though at this time she does not have to. For example we are going to New Zealand in November for a week and she asked me if she could pay the Air Fares. I said sure I will pick up the hire car accommodation and all other costs.

[@Mirajill0909]

That is wonderful, plus i think it feels good to share.

[@yorubianx]

Filipinas women need to understand that older men are not Angels. Most of the times, older men simply looking for sexual fantasies with a younger woman. He doesn't have time to raise you. That's why they travel to places like the Philippines. I've dated a Filipina before. She's cool. I just wasn't ready for marriage back then. Still regretting my actions though.

[@shitmandood]

wtf..listen to you man! First you condemn older men who are taking action. They're going out there & finding young beautiful women to make each other happy. And what do you do? You sit back at home & regret your past, not doing a damn thing. Not taking any action at all! You should admire these older men who are actually getting off their ass & doing something. UNLIKE YOU! Fix it.

[@suckmyballssuckmyballs2174]

Its easy to get along with the same traditional values. White to white, chinese to chinese, japanese to japanese, filipina to filipinos and so on. There is not a lot of a couple adjustments like family, clothing, speaking and so on. More on communicating I believe it is easier to communicate with the same language even in physical affection. Also, dont forget the eye stare that a couple would have to endure with their family, walking at mall, at the park, anywhere as long the couples are together. If a couple managed to survived this life couple life trial then god job. More power to both of you.
