Everything you said about the filipinas going online to collect money from foreigners is absolutely 100% true. Most of the time they're not even interested if you are genuinely coming over or not. I have noticed the difference on dating sites over the last three years, it's a different game now.

Never had even one filipina ask me for 50 pesos. And I've met and dated a bunch online and in person. Ever time I see one of these comments I'm confused and it sounds like a troll. Filipinas I've observed have been some of the most humble and hardworking women on the planet. They have pride and shame. Even the poorest ones would refuse when I want to give them 300 pesos to cover their bus ride home. Makes me realized it's the foreign MEN who are doing something wrong.

@lmcc0072 6 месяцев назад

My girlfriend and I live in California. Years ago her Lola’s caretaker was caught messaging/chatting/Skypeing/FaceTiming multiple men while she was supposed to be taking care of Lola. Not only that, but she is married too. As my girlfriend and her sisters were paying for her, I recommended to my girlfriend that they fire her because I felt that she couldn’t be trusted. If she was doing this right in front of them, what else was she doing when they weren’t there? They didn’t fire her right away, but they did a couple of weeks later after she did something else.

@DJ33970 6 месяцев назад

Yup, a couple years back I decided to try online dating, I talked to 6 - 7 different Filipina's and all of them except for 1 asked me for money and the one that didn't told me she loved me the 2nd day of talking to her, massive red flags, I haven't spoken to any Filipina's online since lol

@labounti 6 месяцев назад

Thats way easy if you plan on staying there for more than 2 weeks. For a 2 week trip, its best to meet someone WAY before you meet. I met a girl there and connected so fast I didn't want to leave... VS meeting someone online, waiting months to meet only to be disappointed and wanting to go home too soon. I had both of those. But in person meeting is more engaging and better.

@brent2438 6 месяцев назад

There are approx 4500 expats in the Dumaguete area. If each one of them has dated 3, 5, 10, or 20 Filipinas, it will ruin the dating pool. I have no interest in dating a Filipina that may have been jaded by multiple other foreigners.

@Paul-yk7ds 5 месяцев назад

@@alals6794 Yes Dumaguete is small. From Wikipedia: "According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 134,103 people." Cebu and Manila are a different story, much larger. But even then, the foreigners tend to stay in specific small areas that Gio mentioned (Cebu IT Park, Cebu Business Park, BGC, Makati), and they tend to use the same dating apps... So all those foreigners in Cebu and Manila are really only interacting with the same small pool of Filipinas who are in those areas or using those apps, so it's kinda like a small town population, even though it's within a big city.

@gmm5550 6 месяцев назад

are Filipinas girls under 25? then yes.. over 35-40 No.. online dating and socialmedia has destroyed all dating and many younger pinays today dream of landing a rich korean or chinese guy who have ALOT more money than any westerner . have in mind that a Korean "spooky white skinned" man (or woman) is the beauty ideal in almost whole se-asia..just look at all the music and movie stars and tv..they all look like Korean men. My personal experiences as a single by choice is that irl is still pretty easy to charm alittle older woman for some free "fun" and dates..

@gailmaplesden7380 6 месяцев назад

I had said before that a lot of younger guys are visiting the philippines. I was up in San Fernando La union this weekend, and there were a lot of foreign people, both men and women, even couples, which I would never bring candy to a candy store. The younger Filipinas obviously would prefer a younger man, but they are finding out that they are just like the Filipinos financially and aren't stable in their own life. Expats have the advantage that most are not going anywhere unless they pass away. Many of the bar girls come from the provinces, and when covid hit, they went home and stayed. So province girls may not be as innocent as you may think. Don't come to the philippines for a woman, come for yourself and the many other benefits that the country has to offer, and then if you want, find someone to share your life.

It's best to go on a dating app before you get there, say 1 month before arrival, and line up 20 pinays as potential dates when you arrive. Ok, 20 is an arbitrary number but as many as you can handle. haha

@vinewood8295 6 месяцев назад

I spent a lot of time in the Pacific during my USAF career & a lot of time with Filipina women. That being said, I would NEVER send one I had never met in person money, I had one who was a bartender whom I knew while stationed in Korea. She never gave me the time of day cause she was dating some other guy at the time BUT after I left, there was a VISA / Green Card raid at the bars & she ended up getting sent back to the P.I. at which time she started hitting me up for favors wanting food & money. I told her I would do what I could to help but never did anything, after about six months, she finally realized & said thanks & that she probably should not have asked in the first place, she was right. I still have a lot of Filipina female friends though, I don't help any of them out financially cause they all have Simps who do that for them, of course they've rewarded said Simps with anchor babies so I guess everyone got something they wanted. One of the things I was warned about as a young Airman though was that when you marry a Filipina, your not just marrying her BUT her entire family & I've heard hundreds of horror stories of dudes having to care for not only their mothers in law but their wives other brothers & sisters as well.... I would take a Filipina woman over an American girl any day of the week though, hands down cause I had a lot more fun & fond memories with them than I ever did with any American girl I've ever spent time with...

I have been watching and enjoying your videos for awhile. I first came to the Philippines in early 2002, and jumped through all the COVID hoops just to put 'boots on the ground. I moved to Bataan Province in Dec. 2022. I will have to say that in the short period of time, until now, things have drastically changed as far as social interactions. I will happily back up some of your observations to wit: 1. Keep your expectations realistic. If you are the 60+ guy looking for the hot 20-something hot Filipina, be prepared to keep your wallet open. 2. Don't dress like a slob. Filipino men and women are for the most part well groomed. They may not always have the best, but they wear the best they have. Shave and get a haircut! 3. Don't be an impatient, arrogant d**k. Smile. Be nice, and above all patient. Filipinos are amazing people. Be an amazing person too.

Hey Gio, I’m one of the outlier 34 y/o expats in good shape, I brought my wife to US on a k1, she’s a province girl. We just moved back to Philippines a couple months ago because after 2 years she hated the US. I set up passive income from real estate in US. I recommend anyone interested in a Filipina to come visit first and date around. Doing the LDR and k1 route can have consequences that you might regret after marriage

But walking around in person, I only feel like I get a littttle bit of attention with girls staring etc, but not that much, honestly. I'm curious what it would be like in a more remote area, but tbh I feel a bit dependent on the big city amenities, international grocery stores and high-rise condos-not sure I want the trade offs of living in a less developed place. And yes I have this habit Gio mentioned, of moving place to place, so my relationships tend to be more casual or short-lived. I can't really offer the same thing as an expat who is settled in that city for the long-term.

Some are obvious and some are subtle. If you are in a circle of friends and get introduced you will be asked if you are single. Is this your first time in the Philippines 🇵🇭. How long can you stay. If you say you are retired and can stay because you have pension…. It’s just like sprinkling Catnip everywhere. There’s plenty of opportunities here still. If I compared the sexual market value to the value of a pension…. I would say triple it. $2000 feels like $6000 here. If the western women think you’re a 5… congratulations they think you’re Brad Pitt here. But remember Brad Pitt doesn’t weigh 300 pounds.

Yeah I agree with you Gio there may be a lot of men from other countries here in the Philippines. You can greatly increase you're chances of dating or being in a relationship with a Filipina if you look well yeah keep yourself in shape dress decently take care of you're hygiene I work out everyday at my local basketball court just jogging and doing inclined pushups and then I use giant water bottles that I use for lifting weights because I don't have a gym near by me or any home gym equipment it works for me. I don't go looking for Filipinas but I just like keeping up my appearance good. Yeah social media has really ruined the Philippines in the way but it really is better than dating women in the west. I like wearing flipflops it's hot here in the Philippines LOL

I met a Filipina online and she refuses to let me help her financially she tells me no thank you and I told her when I get there I will totally support her and she’s fine with that but she does not want me to send her money. And I know she struggles in her life, but she won’t let me help her. She just tells me she loves me and I told her I love her and we both look forward to the day I land in Philippines in six months. it’s gonna be the longest six months ever ha ha

Ok, so there might be relatively more "competition" in Philippines but c'mon, Americans at least have all of Latin America to choose from. That is a population of 700 million and is a few hour flight away, not 16 hours, and flights cost a fraction of going to Manila. Plus the Latin women have far better "assets", lets be honest here. haha

@alals6794 6 месяцев назад

Example, 1200 round trip to Manila from USA but 200 to 300 roundtrip to Latin America....etc etc

A key difference is that Latin American women usually only allow a 10-12 year age difference, but Filipinas will tolerate one in the 30+ year range!

Hi nice to meet you by this way. This is my 3rd time coming to Ph. I went to Manila, Cebu, Davao, Bohol & now back to Manila stay in Aseana city in Hop Inn hotel which is my favorite clean & basic standard hotel. I already tried rent a condo with kitchen that I can cook because I am vegetarian & can find healthy food in Philippines any way most condos are two expensive or not clean compare with European standard. I like Cebu but so polluted city there. The only place I feel good was Business park area in Hop Inn hotel a quiet place but only inside of my room. Concerning healthy or vegetarian food , I couldn’t find places. In fact there are not many vegetables chooses in this country even in modern supermarkt. I understand most people are meat lovers here. I think the beautiful Cebu city is packed with too much expats , too many polluted vehicles & motorbikes, cheepneys , too Mitch noise etc.. it’s my own experience by the way. I discovered a good place to stay was Marcopolo residence area is so expensive for short & long term to stay so not my budget. I also tried by Air bnb but most trash & the prices starts with $45 a night with many problems like warm water doesn’t work or many things doesn’t work or sometimes not clean , compare with a basic clean hotel room. I think the word maintenance for those owners has no meaning here. I have more bad experiences in Cebu city but won’t say them now. So if you have a better experience concerning accommodation & healthy food but affordable , please share it with me. Thank you for your time

@Paul-yk7ds 5 месяцев назад

I'm vegetarian too (vegan actually). I find that Thailand and Vietnam are much better for vegetarian food, maybe because the Buddhist culture, or I don't even know why. But yeah, Filipino food is generally not veg-friendly at all, so much focus on meat.

Filipinas now are watching a lot of youtube and they discovered that not all expats are that wealthly at all😁 and you are exactly right about the hygiene, that is their big complaint that Caucasians smells a lot and sweat glands are stronger when they don’t shower often because asian men has almost have no body hair and less facial hair.And yes dress well, more presentable and stay fit.A lot of the higher class women prefer this over money stuff, money is a bonus, and there is a saying=you don’t need to be loud to attract attention, if you look good you are loud enough to be seen.

@JohnGrigg-gz9gm Месяц назад

The upper class Filipinas can often get with Filipino men who have excellent incomes, even by a western standard. Or in many cases these women have their own money from their jobs or family businesses.

I found an absolutely beautiful Filipina 24 years younger than me and after a year and a half we couldn't be happier together, we are getting married. We met online, and while it is true that there are lots of scammers out there, it isn't hard to separate the very many women looking for true love, from the con artists. Rule number one, don't give anyone money until you've met them. Stick to that rule and you'll eliminate most of the scammers right off the bat.

@keith4826 6 месяцев назад

Any place outside of the major cities. Metro Manila or Cebu are not the province. The province can be close to a major city or can be very, very remote. Long bus rides that can take all day. Then there might be a hotel or hotels or nothing at all. Some foreigners like the province. I prefer the cities. It’s easier to walk away from a crowd I don’t like. In the province if you are around a bunch of drunk people and you inadvertently hurt someone’s feelings it can get uncomfortable and you have no way out….. but YMMV

@garyzies3486 6 месяцев назад

If you don't know that then you'll need to do a lot more research before you put boots on the ground. Besides, province life would probably be a culture shock for you anyway.

The province is places like the island of "Leyte." Biliron on Leyte is where "backpacking with banger" youtube channel met his 19 year old black hair and black eyed GF. The women there are so exotic, but the mudslides and earthquakes are so bad there that few foreigners are not willing to live there.

I am not very good at noticing when a woman is interested in me and most Filipinas are just down to earth and easy to talk to. But, every once in a while, I notice that my Fiancé gets a little jealous when a Filipina approaches me and she will hold my hand to show that I am with her. That’s when I know, even though I am 60 years old with balding gray hair and a big stomach, I still can attract some Filipinas younger than me. Maybe they think I am rich?

I met my Filipina wife in the United States. I took my first trip to the Philippines, Cagayan de Oro, Mindanao, with her about two years ago to meet her family. I was about 40 years old, a little overweight at the time but otherwise well-dressed and decent looking. I got very little attention from the Filipina women that I noticed. I’m sure part of it was because I was with my wife most of the time, but even when I was left alone I don’t think I got much of any special treatment. On the other hand, my one year old mixed Filipino and white baby was an absolute superstar. People stopped and started at him everywhere we went. Bad for me, good for him I guess.
