They are renowned for their sweet demeanor, solid values, remarkable intelligence and, of course, exceptional beauty. Who else can we be talking about if not your regular Filipina?
A Filipino woman (or a Filipina) is someone who will make a unique impression once you get to know her. And who wouldn’t want to?
Time and time again, we hear stories about foreign men dating and even marrying Filipinas — and most, if not all, are happy tales we thought could only happen in movies! (It does make a person wonder if meeting a Filipina is a straight and sure way to fall in love.)
Well, if you are on the same road, today, it is only wise to know some of the most interesting things you will experience when in the Philippines. This dating advice offers you a peek into your fun and one-of-a-kind future with that special Filipino woman!
Filipinos might just be the most accommodating people you’ll ever meet. In fact, they will ask you to come into their homes even before you can express your intentions for visiting.
(Don’t worry — they aren’t gullible or too lenient on their safety. It’s just a beautiful trait they all embody. And the world is better for it, we believe so.)
You will love her family for their warmth and generosity. And, if you’re lucky enough, you’ll get to know not only her parents and siblings but also the grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins if they are within the vicinity.
Obviously, now you have a home to return to after the visit. Also, it’s one of the sure signs that a Filipina likes you when you’re introduced to the clan.
Of course, the Philippine experience can’t be complete without their to-die-for food!
Maybe you’ve heard about the Filipino food party where one table can serve a crowd? The boodle fight is not even an exaggeration; they do enjoy feeding their families and neighbors with all the blessings they’ve got.
When with a Filipina, expect three to four meals a day — all with heaps of rice and meat, paired with condiments to enhance the rich taste. Also, it is important to keep in mind that some Filipinos consider it rude to decline a meal offer, so be sure to work that appetite.
Sure there are concoctions you might haven’t heard of yet, but you must try them first before passing judgement. And what’s a feast without the ever-smiling guests?
Yes, only in the Philippines.
Have we mentioned that Filipinos are crazy talented as well? Among other fields where they excel, singing may be the one most associated with them. It’s as if belting and harmonizing are embedded in their genes.
Why? Maybe because it never fails to lift up their spirits in times of trials, or simply because it has long been part of Filipino culture. And it’s undoubtedly fun!
Don’t worry, though; she will not judge you if singing isn’t really at the top of your strengths. Again, as we’ve stated before, Filipinos only want you to have fun!
There are more than 7,000 islands in the country and all are gems just waiting to be explored. From a bustling city scene to a laid back country experience, it’s literally paradise everywhere!
Reading that might make you think of the ungodly cost to visit such places — and that couldn’t be any further from the truth! As long as you plan properly and learn to truly immerse in the experience, you can enjoy the bounty of the Philippines without taking too much from the bank.
And here’s a real dating advice we are sure will be useful for you: Trust your date when she explains which places are worth the cost and which are not. Properly handling money matters? She’s got that.
Also, when you tour around, you should, at the very least, know what to say to a Filipina: “Salamat!” (“Thank you!”).
Is the Philippines the best place ever or what? Yes, there will be festivals for every town, city and island, and each celebrates different things!
In these events, everyone is welcome, so you must be ready for the dancing and chanting crowd. There are no costumes required, just your fun spirit and respect for the celebration.
One thing to take note of: These events are usually in pairs with a symbolic rite centered on Filipinos’ faith. There will be time for prayers and solemnity as there will be for hitting the colored streets.
Act accordingly and everything will surely be a good time.
They say a foreign trip is never complete if you don’t pick up a few local words while there.
For your case, there will be lots of words to know because the Philippines has hundreds of regional languages and dialects, on top of Filipino and English as the country’s official languages.
Obviously, the language barrier won’t be a major issue!
At the same time, you will have a firsthand experience on the very unique and interesting customs they have that primarily involves their language. Learn about “po”/“opo,” “tagay,” “mahal ko” and more.
Maybe you’ll be a polyglot soon enough. Who knows? And why not?
Sorry, but you’ve already fallen — hard — for her and would never want to look any further. That’s a Filipina’s charm.
By now, you’ve already experienced the extent of her love, care, patience and determination. You know that while she’s exceptionally kind, she’s not subservient.
In essence, you know that she’s for keeps.
Like the epithet given to her country, the Pearl of the Orient Seas, your Filipina date is a simple yet extraordinary gem to love. She’s obviously the start of your lifetime of happiness and adventures. Basically, she’s the perfect wife material.
So, what’s stopping you from moving on to the next stage in the relationship? Yeah, we thought so too.
