Are all Filipino women selfish, or just my wife?

Sorry dude... I think you got the short end of the stick... How did you meet your wife? Online? Pen Pal? The Philippine population from last I heard is 70% below the poverty line. I've seen it many times... Filipinas marrying foreigners for their money... so that they may help their poor family members get a better quality of life... I see nothing wrong with this... but to be very demanding and getting all cross just because you want part of your hard earned money? I am Filipino and married to a loving Filipina wife... and she is not at all like that... I think you should reassess your relationship with your wife... Does she take care of you? Does she love you for you and not your money? Ask yourself the hard questions and maybe it's not too late to set your marriage straight. Lastly, be a man... stand up and be heard if things are not quite right.

Filipino Woman

I can tell you from personal experience and personal observations that your wife is typical filipina. I have an old friend that is the 2nd husband to a filipina that had 2 kids from her 1st marriage. She has 3 sisters living in the US as well and all divorced after having 2 kids and all seeking as much child support they can get, not to mention filing for all the government assistance they can get. I have met more than 20 filipinas thru my friends wife that also got divorced from Americans after having 2 kids and they all talk about how to get more money from the government. I live in the Philippines 7 months out of each year and I have met only 5 or 6 good filipinas that are good women that work and don't ask for anything. I personally know more than 30 women in that country that have foreign boyfriends and they all get money from them while also supporting filipino boyfriends. They are lazy and useless women. This is what I personally know. I would never marry a woman from that country. They can be a lot of fun if you don't take their lies serious.

I am married to filipina from Davao city and have been for over 5 years. I was married before to an american woman for over 10 years and the differences are drastic. I find filipina's to be more level headed and not as angry as american women. Filipina women seemed to be raised with more family values and seem to worry about family, children and their husband more than them self's. The american culture has become all about ME. What do I want, what do I need. Where as the filipino culture is what can I do to make it better for the ones I love. You filipina women are amazing and have the greatest smiles in the world. One smile from a filipina will melt a man heart. Many will say that men from the USA cant find a woman or they want a submissive type asian. That is not case many americans search the Philippines for a loving wonderful woman how puts her family first. And then there american husbands put them on a Pedestal and will go out of there way for them and there family. Its not about looking for a submissive wife or on the woman's side a green card. Its two people from different cultures that learn about each other and love each for the differences. Don't listen to haters of these relationships. Many good american men have slipped through the hands of selfish, bitter american women who think life is like TV.

Being a Filipina myself, its not 1st time that I heard same stories as yours. Hurt to admit but there are Filipina's who is same as your wife but these are not the typical Filipino women. In fact the typical Filipina are the one that have its own career, graduate of a degree course & earning money of its own. Yah, they help financially their family (a Filipino way of paying your respect & love for your parents & siblings) but once they got married, their family understand that she has her own life now. She can still help but not that much, because parents felt shame towards her husband.

You did not give the family backgroud & lifestyle of your wife. I have the feeling that maybe she came... lets say not a well done family or they have this thinking that you are rich (although you said that you are not & you tell it to your wife before you marry her, but maybe she dont believe you). Sorry to say this but maybe one of the reason why she marry you was because of your money & the thinking that her family can benefit from that. Situation now have no turning back, she is your wife now & if you do love her, sit down & discuss what you felt & the situation that is going on. If she loves you more than the money then she will understand & explain everything to her family & learn to accept the life you can offer only. If everything turn the other way around, I hate to say this but no other way but to get divorced & move on with each other life otherwise both of your life will be miserable & frustrations. Goodluck & God bless.

Nothing Wrong at All with Filipina Women.....

There is one small problem from my direct expereince: 90% are mentally ill as in genetically diseased, not just a problem of cultural wrong habits. What you saw in your wife is not just selfishness but a mentally warped brain as per her behaviour. Sorry i don't agree with her country men and women who say that this is merely a result of poverty.

There is a lot of severe poverty in South America and you do not see this kind of widespread behaviour as in Philipines.

The best thing is to learn that certain countries consider immoral, deceitful, criminal actions...to be perfectly all right as long as they aren't the ones affected. Most filipinos couldn't care less what happened to you from your mentally disturbed wife, no matter how good a man you are.

Once you realize that you married a mentally ill person, you will dump her the next day. Good Luck. And if you are very good at finding needles in Haystacks, then you can find a good wife again in Philippines.

I married a filipina and had to cancel her visa petition. They only care about money and a visa and their filipino family, not you, the bobo american white guy. They will call you gwapo all day but if you don't supply money watch how problems arise. If everything seems too good to be true then watch out because it is! I cant say all are this way but all are that I have met! If you are white you are not really family and they have no loyality to you. Its only loyality towards other filipinos. And they will share money with family to which all Filipinos are somehow related, but if you ask for money its a big damn problem! I have seen enough white guys fall for these women and get majorly screwed. They look innocent, may even go to church on sundays but they are deceitful, beautiful liars. Maybe not all but most. Beware!

I think self centered yes. I think they don't fully appreciate what their husbands are going through.

My future wife is a very nice girl and I believe her to be loyal but we don't have a full connection and

it saddens me. Sometimes I wonder if I should call it off but I know over the long haul she would be

a good wife. I miss not having more of a connection. We have some and it growing but I don't see

her really trying. Its almost like she wants to be a trophy wife. I don't know. She has been here for 3 weeks and you'd think we'd be all over each other, but no. I am not excepting sex every night but I am sad she

not more interested. I am sad she is not really interested me. Sure she love me, but its not with a connection.

apparently she never really appreciated the inner meaning of my texts. For example she watches movies at home with me but never asks what I want. I feel like I give and once in a while she offers me something but only because she is doing it only.

Mine is not just being selfish, but a real psycho! I´m a Romanian guy, i married my Filipina wife 3 years ago, but in all this years, my life was a living hell. She would get angry about the smallest thing, she throws objects at me, slams doors... Today it happened again, but for me, this was the last, i´m full of her attitude, and i am planning to file Divorce...

She´s having a lot of reasons to get angry, and does it almost every day, even if i´m always kind to her, i´m always talking nice to her, and NEVER ask her a penny...

Today, she told me that she wants to visit her auntie in Germany, i was asking her if i can join her, because i´m having 3 weeks vacation from work, and was wishing to go somewhere and relax, and that would the perfect pooprtunity for that, but, instead of being happy, she suddenly got mad, and told me that i´m a jealous person, and that i don´t trust her to go alone. I was trying to explain her that it´s not true, but she would not listen, she was shouting at me, calling me animal, swearing, she was throwing the chair at me, than the bottle with water, and as if all that would not be enough, she took my tab and smashed it into pieces.

I was getting really mad, and asked her to stop, she told me to get out of the room, because if not she will kill me. Now she´s alone in the room, and i´m staying in the sala, avoiding any contact with her.

I´m full, and that was the last for me, i´m gonna divorce her this time, in 3 years i was having more than enough...

Most of Filipino women are looking for a foreigner to marry with, just because of they live in a country under 89% of poverty line, I've got acquainted with a filipino, she was a teacher with a salary of over 22,000 pesos per month, I'm an engineer, but she never let me know about her income, she always pretended like she doesn't have enough to eat! I was with her about 8 months, she was always hungry for money, never satisfied, and she always pretended that she loves me, but it was a lie!
