What does courtship mean to Filipinas? Do they have their own set of standards when it comes to dating and relationships?

People will often misunderstand or jump to conclusions about what courting a woman means. Courtship is the essential key in building a successful relationship. It provides romance and deepened commitments, and it can also build trust and unconditional love.

The first step in understanding the importance of Filipino values is to consider what they can do for you, and what benefits come with them. Finding love among Filipinas through dating sites is one way for you to grasp the basic concept of how Filipino culture works.

The dating game among young people in the Philippines is very different from what older adults learned from the previous years. Since we are all part of a digital age, what with the help of numerous dating apps and sites, we are now introduced to new ways of understanding different Filipino practices.

It's never too late to go back to a time when traditional courtship was considered normal and sweet. Filipino courtship indicates that a way to show a woman your love is basically doing everything you can to show her your intentions, such as serenading her, giving gifts, visiting the family, and spending quality time with her.

Traditional vs Modern

The thing about traditional and modern courtships is that with the modern method, you can’t really tell if a person genuinely loves you, or if they are willing to go to great lengths to prove their love for you. What’s incredible about the traditional method is that all the proof you'll need will be laid out and shown in front of you. There are no questions when it comes to sincerity and commitment.

Do’s and Don’ts in Filipino Courtship

  1. Family first.
  2. When dating a Filipina, you will also be dating her family. Filipinos are known to have very strong ties with their families and relatives, so you will need to spend time with them and gain the approval of each family member.

    It doesn’t mean that when a Filipina introduces you to her family, you’re going to get married. Hopefully one day, sure, but the point of this is to show you that you have earned the right to be there, and that it's time her family will come to assess you.

  3. Be a gentleman.
  4. The universal rule when trying to win over the woman you fancy is to show that you are a gentleman. It's common sense to always be respectful and polite. If you are dating to seek a future relationship such as marriage, then it's very important that you take note of this.

  5. Wait for the right time.
  6. Filipinas are known to be conservative by nature and hard to get. If you cannot impress or grab a lady’s heart on your first try, respect that. It means you need to put in a lot more effort than you normally would. You will know the right time when it comes, and when you show her enough care and effort, she will surely consider you as a romantic partner.

  7. Be generous.
  8. Being generous is one way to gain the approval of a Filipino woman's family. Your gifts don’t have to be all that expensive, even bringing simple desserts for them or paying for dinner is good enough. Also, when you travel to the Philippines to meet your Filipina girlfriend, you will be expected to bring gifts and souvenirs. Filipinos are suckers for that kind of thing.

    You are not required to do so every time you take a Filipina girl out on a date. Filipinos are very understanding people; you may be on a tight budget, and they will get it. You can also just buy gifts for your lady alone to make her feel special. Even the cheapest and simplest things will suffice as long as you put a lot of thought into it.

  9. Respect her religion.
  10. Filipino culture revolves mostly around religion. These people are very devoted, and a good many of them even go to church every week. Respect their ways and you will have a good standing with your Filipina's family.

  11. Respect her culture.
  12. Now, before you visit the Philippines, it's best to do some research. The culture in the Philippines is very different from that of the West. Certain things may not make sense to you at all, but whether they make sense or not, you must give your utmost respect. Filipinos are very proud of their culture.

  13. Don’t make fun of the Philippines.
  14. As mentioned, Filipinos are proud people, and they are very patriotic. They have strong beliefs about their culture and heritage. Keep your jokes to yourself - it is safer that way, especially if you want to score a second date with your lady. It may be considered disrespectful and ignorant if you make fun of their country and practices.

  15. Don’t compare.
  16. The general rule when it comes to dating in society is to never compare. Each of us are unique individuals, and it is always rude and offensive to compare someone with another person.

  17. Don’t assume.
  18. You can never know what your lady is thinking, so to be on the safe side, don’t try to guess what’s going on in her mind. Respect how your date is going and wait. Patience is one of the keys to having a successful relationship. You can just hope for a better result towards the end of the date.

  19. Don’t tell her who she can and can’t be friends with.
  20. When it comes to the social group among Filipinas, they tend to value all of their friends despite the good or bad outcomes. They will always have strong opinions to counter your arguments about who they can or can't hang out with. So if you are aiming to score a second date with your lady, don't mind her social circle too much and focus on her well-being from a safe distance.

Summary
