What do guys think?

How do you look at a girl who's not from your own country or race? I mean, does it bother you or something?



What's your honest opinion about Asian girls for example...or if you're familiar, about Filipinas in particular.



I just want to know.



Thanks!

Aimee

Gourd, honestly, you are quite right. Many Filipinas wanted to marry foreigners for that reason, but not all. And for the Filipina women who sacrificed their own happiness for the sake of their family, I admire them, even though I know what they were doing is not right. But not all Filipinas marry foreigners just to get out of the Philippines, majority of them really love their spouses?partners. they are just victims of "the distance" and "race". Like in my case...my ex is an American and my fiance now is also an American. I did not have any plans to marry a foreigner before. My ex found me on a page of The Living Sacrifice, one of my favorite bands. After some exchange of comments...we thought we clicked and we thought God led us to be together. But after 3 years, he left me. I was hurt so I went to this site to befriend some foreigners to understand why he left me coz I really don't know the reason why...and of course to seek some godly advice on how to move forward. Then I met my amazing smoothie. I'm happy that he loves me regardless of my race. And this time, I'm sure that God intended this relationship to last FOREVER.





I love you, Neal... :hearts:

Hi Gourd,



I'd like to say something about your brief comment about where European women are. I'm not European, but do live here and have been on a German-speaking Christian website here. However, I didn't hear much at all, so decided to try this site. I plan to go back to the States anyway, but that is up to God as when that will happen. This site also has a lot more people on it.

My uncle married a Filipina through a dating website while he was posted at the Misawa Naval base in Japan. They talked, they went through all of the legal procedures, and they married.



A few years later, he found out that she used to go onto dating websites to meet up with men in a manner similar to prostitution, and that she had done so recently during their marriage. But he knew that he loved her, and he was married for better or for worse. They were struggling to have children at the time, and it seemed as though every kind of marital pressure was coming down on them. They talked it out, they began to attend marriage counceling with their pastor, and things seemed to improve.



Over the course of a few more years, they tried to have children. She became pregnant, but miscarried. Then she received news from the Philippines that her sister could not financially afford to have the fourth (or fifth, not sure) child that she was carrying. My uncle and aunt agreed to move to Davao city in the Philippines to go through the process of adopting their nephew on the agreement that her sister would get her tubes tied.



Something went wrong with the adoption, and they are currently not allowed to return to the states with their boy. Rose's sister did not get her tubes tied quickly enough, perhaps for financial reasons, and they have adopted the second boy. My uncle became involved in another man's ministry calling to start an orphanage for the boys on the streets of Davao. The other minister left, but my uncle remains, and he and Rose remain the directors of the orphanage; they are looking to buy a new property and expand.



Yes, many of the women on dating sites are trying to marry into the United States or another (seemingly) improved situation. But whoever comes across your path, if God fills you with love for this person, and their beliefs appear to be in line with your own, do not hesitate to follow that path. Whatever fears or doubts we have about life, love, and romance, God has a plan that is always beyond our anticipation or understanding. His greatest calling for us is to give love, first to him, then to everyone else.

This is a very interesting topic Aimee. It was great of you to enable to come up with this post. I also have this feeling of wanting to know how American men thinks about us Filipinos. Regardless of the reasons why Filipino women married American men, I don't think that most of them just wanted to be out of our country and wanted to have a better life, as what I have understand in what Gourd said.



Sorry to say this, but for me it really sounds as a discrimination among us Filipino women.



To my own opinion, regardless of the broken marriages among American men and Filipino women, I don't think that we just have to focused in one factor. I mean, broken marriage has a lot of factors to be consider, not just compatibility, and definitely we should not put a blame to one party only.



To storm: I want to congratulates you for having a Filipina girlfriend and maybe a future wife. I wish you all the best and I hope that you will take good care of her as well as she will take care of you.



God bless all!

I recently got out of a two and a half to three year relationship with a Filipina I met on this site. There were signs that she was in the relationship for money but looking back I think I chose to ignore them because I wanted to believe agree really did love me and not the "idea of me". She was supposed to be dating me but she was also on sites like this looking for a better opportunity. She lied and said she was only keeping in contact with friends on here, and that she was on here because she wanted to make sure it was "God's will" for us to be together. I ended up going to the Philippines and although I wasn't planning to propose, I ended up proposing and she said yes. Three or four months later while we were so "in love", I got laid off of my job. She had said two days before how blessed she was to have me and how she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me, but when I got laid off she couldn't break up fast enough with me. Now I wont say all Filipina women are looking for a sugar daddy, but she was and she was very good at disguising it...so just be sure to ask God what His will is...
