Dating Filipino women, the word courtship will play a huge part. You really have to caress a Philippine bride and this does not necessarily mean that you have to shower her with gifts. A token of love or two will do and they do not have to be expensive. You do not need to bring gifts to her family members but always note that, the parents will take this as a sign of respect. Again, it does not have to be expensive. Aside from that, you would also have to make her friends and other family members like you which is basically something that you have to do in all unless you want to have a hard time making her like you. Filipino women give the complete importance to family. The value of having a loving family has been instilled in the hearts of Filipino women growing up. The family serves as a cornerstone for them. Once committed, the Filipino women would put her family first before anything....money career or friends. Rest assured that a Filipino women will do everything to protect and keep her family close together.
If you come from another country and would like to have a Filipino woman for a girl, you simply have to resolve the differences. This is considered challenging, however, the rewards of understanding the girl you're pursuing is all worth it. To acquire or gain Filipino women that have totally different culture than you do is something you need to embrace and accept. This will definitely win a Filipino woman's heart.
Hi Cristine... this is very interesting. I think you would have a catchier blog if you did a weekly blog just on the topic of dating Filipinas online, etc. It's something you could research and you could include some interviews with women you know, maybe a different woman each week-- maybe with actual photos-- and say what they find difficult in online relationships, what their expectations are, whether they would actually prefer to have a Filipino boyfriend but because of the economics they are forced to go outside the country, etc. That would be very interesting and I would link up with you for sure. Give it some thought. All the best, Cynthia (ps, I have a Filipina daughter-in-law-- they met in person but did much of their courtship long distance).
