Never live that close to family that they can stop by anytime. Leave some distance so they can come by now and then but not so close they want to stop by every weekend.

[@thebigmann81]

The foreigners need to be honest also upfront we are not rich. I told my Filipina I was considered some what low income or poor for California standards do to the cost of living when we was just starting to date. She never asked for money. I think I was a lucky one. She said it was okay because she is Filipina and is use to struggle and most importantly we there for each and love each other.

Pea '@ 4:21 "Don't lie." As you said We are not stupid. My last Thai fiancée supposedly was going to her local town to buy a dress for the Thai wedding which was to happen the next month when I returned. I'd already processed the K-1 visa paperwork and all that was required was a trip to do the interview in Bangkok. I'd provided her with a duplicate Paypal card which attached to my account. (I trusted her with controlling spending to those things really needed.) She apparently didn't realize I could see every purchase including location. When there appeared a purchase in a town in another province far enough away to preclude a one day trip I questioned it. Our method of contact was though her identical twin sister's laptop. Sis was a teacher. Both sisters lived at home with her parents. Sister told me my fiancée had been gone a couple days, and neither she or their parents knew where she went. I asked about the location which showed up on Paypal. That town was where my fiancée's previous Thai boyfriend lived. It certainly wasn't the local dressmakers shop. That very day her Paypal card was cancelled, and the visa process was cancelled. I'd already heard her lie to her parents about other things. (Being fluent in Thai was key to that.) The point girls is don't lie to an American man who has decades of life experience. We are not stupid, and won't put up with a liar.

[@russk1971]

I live and grew up in America. Most people who don't live in North America have no idea how much men actually work. They also don't understand the competition in a work environment in America. Most American men HAVE to choose work over family. American workers get 40 hours of vacation a year on average. Most Americans work 60 hours a week. Most factories do not allow more than 3 "sick" days a year. Family means a lot to American men. We give up time with our wife and children to provide for them. We don't want our in-laws to suffer hard times. We also are reluctant to financially support them instead of our wife and children. I have seen a fair amount of relationships fail because the foreign lady kept sending financial resources to help her family. The discussion of how money should be used is crucial in a relationship.

[@johnrisher3007]

I've worked my butt off. I'm 65 now but money is not the most important thing in the world. God blesses me every day. I put my trust in God to provide for me. I enjoy spending money on my wife. I buy stuff from my wife to send to her family in the Philippines

Excellent information as usual. I never minded my girlfriend's family being close. I never minded them staying for days at a time and doing loud karaoke until late at night.

At least one child's spouse with little to no ability to earn. I loved their families. I just refused to be an ATM machine for the family and that was always a problem.

Hello Pea. You can never go wrong with this kind of video. Both the western man and Filipina woman should realize from the start that cultural differences are to be expected but if they really love each other and want to be together, a good middle ground can be found. I realize that’s easier said than done, especially early in the relationship. For those that are in a relationship, I wish them the very best and in the end that love will truly conquer all. Have a good weekend and I look forward to your next video as I request permission to aboard the Starship Pea to arrive in a timely manner 🚀

​@@TheFilipinaPeathat is sad, unfortunately there are some men who are dumb and can't handle an intelligent woman, but that is a sign of immaturity. A real relationship is about facing the future together and that means being equally yoked for a common goal. It isn't about being the same, it is about completing each other so you are both happy. Unfortunately there are many people who have not yet grown up despite being older and waste time. The only thing you can do is minimize your time with those people and move on.

It is no wonder that you have 1/4 million subs and growing, you knocked it out of the park with this one. I wish every Filipina could see this to understand the things that you have explained so well. I have lived with my Filipina wife now for almost 24 years and have had to teach her all the things you discussed here. She used to be jealous but not any more, she used to misunderstand comments and feel offended but not any more, so many things you discussed I had to teach her over the years, I wish you had done this vlog for her when we first married, it would have saved me a lot of work and hurt feelings and even a few tears. Thanks again for all your great vlogs.

[@TheFilipinaPea]

Thanks so much Bruce, and if I could go back in time 24 years, I’d certainly make this video for you! Of course, at only 9 years old, my vocabulary might not be quite as advanced 🤣

[@SIG442]

Some tips for Filipina ladies: - Never think your values count the same if you have a western man, it's a joined effort not a single affair for you. - Having family sleep over might be no problem, however this for 1 night only unless there is a good reason. In the west we do not see family as being welcomed too much, we appreciate our independence from family and enjoying the time with our partners and kids. If someone wants to sleep over, make sure only that person comes over and not a whole horde of family members as that wasn't discussed or approved. He will send your family home otherwise. - The truth counts, not just a snippet of it or talking around the actual subject. You will be seen as dishonest and unfair, it may even lead to losing that man. Be honest with him, tell all he needs to know and don't be lazy nor beat around the bush. Your partner in western culture should be the number 1 you tell everything to and be absolutely honest to, regardless of how difficult this must be for you. Lying or leaving out details is a serious no-no and will destroy your relationship with him. - The multiple facebook and other social media accounts... Yeah that will get you removed from him real fast. It will blacklist you even permanently. For me personally, I do not accept ANY social media accounts as women love to get attention from other men which is a form of cheating. I do not condone that. - Plan B, C and whatever else.... Serious red flag and it will show you the same as a red light district worker towards that man. If you want to show you are loyal, you won't be doing this EVER. Same for the carousel ride thing, don't ever put a western man trough that. They left the west to find you because of that. Don't think you are smarter then him or the western women in that, you won't be. He got already enough experience with that very concept, you won't be fooling him for long if at all. - Don't be overly jealous, if you keep throwing those tantrums he will leave you as you proof to be useless to him. Again, western women already did that to him and part of the reason he's looking somewhere else. - His money is his money, don't try to take his money to distribute to your family for any reason. This will be seen in a very bad way and you will end up chasing him away due to your and your family's greed. He has that money to provide for your and his needs to have a decent life, this includes the kids that are biologically yours and his. That money isn't there to provide your entire family. He rather will try to teach them how to get more out of their businesses or how to get something started up then give any money at all. That isn't bad, but actually a good thing. This way they can provide for them selves as western doctrine tells people to do. What Pea says is true, show him that you can safe money and don't make it disappear so quickly. Show him you can safe for years on end making sure you have money for the future. - Bluntness is used to state clearly what is meant or what is thought. That isn't a attack on you or anyone, it's to be direct and efficient. He will expect you to do the same, tell it as it is and don't beat around the bush. Communication is key for a western man, communicate properly and there will be no problems. Communicate badly and you will be sure of a lot of problems both at that moment as in the future. It is a problem you caused by not being straight forward with him. - Humor is a very big way to bond with someone. In the west it's perfectly normal to make jokes about someone while having no bad thoughts at all. For example, "you look fat" doesn't always mean what is being said. Look at his face, if he grins or has a smile, you can be sure it's a joke and he's just teasing you a little bit with no bad intentions meant at all. If he's acting happy while saying such a thing, same thing. He doesn't mean anything bad by it, he's just joking around. If he means it, he often will make sure you know about it. - Want sex with him? Then make sure no one else is around. Western people sleep in separate bedrooms for a good reason. This so you can be a bit more wild in the bedroom with your partner without someone else in the room looking at what you're doing. If your sister sleeps in the same room for whatever dumb reason, she can expect the same treatment. He will assume she's there to have sex as well and you agreed with it. So keep her and any other family members out of the bedroom. Else you might have made a huge mistake that you can't correct anymore. You will be angry at him and he will be angry at you. Neither of you seeing eye to eye because YOU decided to have a family member in the bedroom. - Something Pea didn't mention: Western men don't want drama, it's part of why they came looking there for a man. Don't give him drama and you will be fine. Keep the drama on the TV or in your movies, he doesn't want any of that. He just wants a decent life with you, by adding drama you will disturb that and might eventually chase him away.

Incresibly well said, although as a western man I think I would be smart enough to read the cultural difference and realize if there were a family memember of my wife staying in the same room that's a cultural thing and not an invitation for a threesome. I'd put an end to that arrangement pretty quick anyway.

Setting boundaries and creating order is important for relationships to thrive. Try to be on time and not lying is key not to waste time from a foreigners perspective. It’s best for you to find a Filipina that’s older and more mature. This way you avoid having to train them to becoming an adult.

When a woman see’s a weak man they take advantage of them, and even disrespect them cause of their weakness. If you allow a younger woman to control the relationship you are a Simp by definition. The whole reason to be with a mature man, is to be treated with respect and have a shared loving relationship & not to treat them like a possession, but an equal. The woman will learn rapidly in this relationship how to be mature and classy if she picks well her mate.

Hi Pea, I think one key thing for women to realise when dating a foreigner is that it’s a coming together of 2 cultures. It’s in reasonable to assume that only the foreigner needs to adapt, both parties will need to adapt in order to be happy together. Communication of course is the key here, if a Filipina is offended by something her partner says she should check to make sure she has understood what he said, especially if he’s trying to communicate in her language.

[@smferreiro2610]

That's so common sense... but remember she plays as a local. Your culture is in you, her culture is everywhere and acts as a mold to her reactions.

Of course many of us have done research, so we have some idea of the cultural differences, and most of us want to compromise. Yes we are direct, and and are always on time, which is something we both need to do, or it will never work out in a mixed relationship. Also 99% of us are not ATM’s and don’t have the means to be that way.😊

[@bryanmurray8845]

You were pretty spot on! I think communication is an implied task but very important to put out there. To have such an insight into us western men, you either had to date a few or been involved with one for some time. You do a great job communicating each others cultural differences enabling both sides to better understand the other. You will make a western man a great wife and partner in crime. LOL!!! Until next time!!😊

[@TheFilipinaPea]

Yes, I did date western men after I became an adult, so that helped give me a little insight 👍😊

[@bullhornzz]

A friend of mine said it best when a girlfriend of hers asked how to keep her partner faithful. She said "the secret to a happy relationship? Clean house, dirty wife, full stomach, empty balls" honestly, a loyal woman who attends to her mans needs is all we need. It's hard for another woman to steal your man as long as you're taking care of his needs properly.

Pea, out of all your videos, can you upload this one again either dubbed in Tagalog, or subbed in Tagalog? My GF, soon to be wife, isn't the best in English. She'd enjoy this one.

[@CarlWithACamera]

The primary difference I see between Philippines and western culture is that the Philippines has the culture of paying back your parents and grandparents for the effort they put in raising you, whereas western culture is one of paying forward that effort by raising your own kids and helping to raise your grandkids. There’s less expectation that your children take care of you in your old age. This disparity in cultures creates friction when the western husband sees his Filipina wife expending her time and his resources on her extended family. Time and resources he expects to invest into his children.

[@LMason-rx9xy]

Yeah. There are merits to both strategies. In the paying back strategy, the next generation has less resources to start out, potentially hindering productivity, in the paying forward model the contrary. However, the paying forward model discourages having children to a much greater extent when economic means are limited.

[@CarlWithACamera]

@@LMason-rx9xy I think the pay forward strategy takes pressure off people, allowing them to pursue higher education and higher paying careers before having their own children (and thus loading up on expenses). This allows a society's productivity and innovation to thrive, such that there becomes a bigger pie from which everyone can get a slice. The downside is the degradation of family structure. It took about three generations from the America of the 1940s and 50s with strong family values to evolve into the unmitigated disaster we seem to have today. Was all that extra innovation and productivity worth it? Hard question to answer.

[@RCFSULAW]

Thanks Pea. Hopefully this video will help many foreigners who have never had a relationship with a Filipina. Mine was not in the Philippines although she was born there and had many of the traits described in this video. Some Western men are easy as they are infatuated by a young beautiful woman and her appearance and intimacy is enough at first. But pity instant karma. Down the road they will be kicking themselves in the pants. I am not in that category. I do obviously expect the first two traits of chemistry and intimacy. . But at the same time if I don't hear Gwapo or Pogi when interacting I will move on because a woman who does not find her man to be handsome to her then she will likely stray. You mentioned men are looking for a companion. But it is deeper than that. We want comfort at home. Compatibility. Great communication.. Lying and jealousy are deal breakers. Tampo is a behavior we normally encounter when a woman is using a Tampo-N. Matigas Ulo(stubborn) results in fights and arguments and this is very common in the Philippines. At night you hear dogs barking, karaoke and couples arguing. Tampo and matigas ulo are immature personality traits and if you encounter these two you need to have a talk about acceptability.. Nobody wants a pouting partner. Most foreign men don't understand the concept of Utang na Loob. The problem is everyone in the family, which means the extended family, thinks you are not only an ATM but a gold mine. This is where a foreigner and his partner must agree to what is acceptable and boundaries. Foreigners need to understand that loans are not paid back when the loan comes from the foreigner. As for sexual variety foreigners are getting luckier by the day. The Philippines is the highest consumer of porn so it is the Filipinas wanting to learn about everything. Most have never had a big O. I have been asked that question numerous times. Rather than being graphic I send them two articles where they can learn about their bodies and what provides their satisfaction. The reason is most men are also not that great in that department according to Western women. Although a taboo topic in the home in the Philippines once the train goes rolling down the tracks there is no stopping a Filipina. However with Filipinas in high school and college s.x and orgasms are a big topic when girls get together. But then come even more questions. They truly want to please the foreigner they do settle down with. One last thing. There is a great woman KZbinr Dr, Rena Malik that covers ever woman's topic in her videos. There is a wealth of information for Filipinas there covering everything involving intimacy but also everything in the urological system.

It really does seem to be that simple - so why is it so difficult for women to provide those few reasonable things? 😳

[@CG87343]

@@TheFilipinaPea: Because sadly women (generally speaking) are complicated people who say they want one thing but actually want the opposite and more. They say they want a good man but chase after the men who will have fun with them and leave. Men for the most part have a very short list of what they want in a woman. A man may have 5-6 things such as what I mentioned already, a woman on the other has a list longer than the Great Wall of China. If he has an Android and not an iPhone (the newest at that) it’s an automatic disqualification for example. Wears a brown belt; oh hell no. Just a couple of examples.

✈✈✈Impressive to see a young lady articulated an understanding of Western men. If more Filipinas visited the U.S., they would understand our organizational, practical demeanor is indoctrinated in our way of life, such as how serious we are about our traffic rules, courtesy when shopping and/or lines, etiquette and TRYING to live our life with grace. Being married in the U.S. to a Filipina for 17 years, it was a struggle to get my wife to not push ahead in lines, be on time everywhere and to stop acting like she was fighting for the last piece of lumpia against the world and to understand investments and savings are for the future, not in one hand and out the other.✈✈✈

I can definitely say that Filipino women inherently know the value of warmth and necessity of the family dynamic. It’s actively been severed in the US. Even on the friend level there is a realness.

[@Breaker197]

As an American guy married to a Malaysian, I enjoy this channel for the similarities and parallels. On the topic of the difference between family dynamics, I'll just add my experience. I bonded with her family well enough, we both agree on the importance of family, but as she came here to America for the marriage, and we've been together 7 years, her family stays in touch regularly, and visits when they can, but she's been taken back by my family. They accepted her readily, and still care for her, but she's for whatever reason, not really connected with them, and has reached the point where she doesn't really want to spend time with or build relationships with my family, and it's one of the biggest things that bothers me, as like I've said, I also believe family is everything, but she just won't bond with my family the way I have with hers. I wish I could be sharing a solution, but I haven't found one yet. Just sharing an experience and something to be aware of. Because of how developed Malaysia is, there wasn't as much of culture difference when she came here, but the difference in family dynamics is what caught her off guard and lead to lots of fights. Still trying to find a way to fix it. Any advice is welcome.

I am a Yorkshireman and we are more direct and honest than even an Aussie (well Australia was discovered by a fellow Yorkshireman) and we are along the lines of the lines of 'Say what we mean and mean what we say and don't EVER call our bluff' Personally with me priorities go in this order: Adventure, laughter, trying things differnet, high energy , having a broad but cultured mind, loyalty, companionship, Matress Mambo, even MORE Matress Mambo and more adventure and frankness We dont tolerate chelping (like the soft southern English) and we appreciate when a woman works hard also.

[@johntrench]

The top 5 critical relationship needs for men are: sexual fulfillment, admiration and respect, domestic support, physical attractiveness of our mate, and recreational companionship. The order they are valued by men can vary, however, for the overwhelming majority of men, sex is the number one need on the list. Nearly as important is admiration and respect. Men process emotions much differently than do women, and admiration and respect are far more important to us than is “romantic love”. To be frank, by the time men reach their prime here in the west, around age 35, we have learned that while women WANT romantic love and romantic gestures FROM men, they have little or no capacity for FEELING or GIVING romantic love TO men. As unfair as it may seem, Filipinas who want a western husband will have to overcome what those men have learned about female nature from experience with western women. We are not comparing you to them-western men have come to the Philippines, have done so because they already know that Filipinas are, in general, superior quality prospective wife and mother prospects to western women. Our reactions are, however, based upon our past experiences with western women. Western men will get past that, however, if you are patient and intimate with them, and show them how truly different you are from the “damaged goods” they have left behind to come to you.

Hello there Ms. Pea! Greetings from Canada. Just stumbled upon your channel. I enjoy watching the videos haha. As a half Filipina(transgender woman😅), I'd say everything you mentioned are mostly pretty basic and the rest are great reminders.👏 I am fairly certain that once we Filipinas see the traditional qualities we're looking for in a guy, then it's easy for us to settle down. We have standards too, aside from being a stable man and wanting a family, based on experience, it is sooo hard to find western guys who doesn't mind going to church(Catholic) on Sunday🙈, not to mention guys that fits your age range... PS: This video would have been more helpful with the Tagalog subtitle for some of the ates and titas? 🤗 Nevertheless, such an awesome and tremendous job! Keep it up!❤️

Be real, or be gone. By the way, Pea... the ads that pop up in the middle of your videos would be much easier to tolerate if they were in a language I could understand.
