Default What are the girls really like here?

I am nearly 42 and been single never married only to a job, plenty of girl friends but they all wanted to rule my life especially one frenchgirl of whom nearly succeeded.

I really want to settle down, got the savings to do so. What I want is a girl that will look after me, no nagging and a very good house keeper. I am getting vibes because the place i am living in now is a complete mess but my hosts are rather special and I really can not complain and would not. i really need a very beautiful atractive girl with all the right parts in the right place.

Honesty, hard working and the need to have a family but I really do not want to bring up some one elses children. I have a house in france and part ownership to a vinyard and want to retire there in two years time.

I really want advice from someone with good and sensible experience of the filippines conserning all the problems I could face and about the culture problems and of course getting the new wife out of the country as I have heard there are visa problems.

The main thing is can someone tell me what the girls are really like here and will i be able to find one to fit my needs?

Tough questions. I'll try to kick in a couple of centavos worth.
On the positive side I've found Filipinas to be loyal, giving, caring and loving. They are happy with the simple things in life as they have grown up with little more than the basics for living. They are very family oriented and blood is always thicker than water. They exhibit high morals in nearly any situation.
On the negative side the same influences leading to the virtues can lead to vices depending on the person and their situation.
Some get a taste of materialism and like it too much because they've had to do without for so long. They are so dedicated to their Filipino relatives they lose perspective and are unable to balance the needs of the marriage with the wants of their family. In this event, morals can take a back seat.
People of either sex can be heavily influenced by their families. In my experience, it's best to get to know a woman's family before committing to a serious relationship. Regardless what people say, we eventually become what our parents were, or at least very similar. Most of all, take your time.
My case is somewhat unique because my wife was adopted by her American uncle and Filipina aunt and emigrated that way. My sister-in-law married an Aussie and it took about six months to get her to Australia.

Ok, you drive a hard bargain. Double down attractive. Go ahead and add drama and attention seeking. I'm solid on no nagging though. That's my final offer, take it or leave it!

Ted's emporium of non nagging attractive wives accepts your offer, but are unable to fill your order at this moment, we are expecting a new shipment of attractive, non nagging wives on the 1st. we apologize profusely for any inconvenience caused in this delay in delivery of your wife

disclaimer
while Teds emporium for wives guarantees attractiveness and no nagging. we are unable to guarantee the suitability of attention seeking and drama to the customer.
intelligence, humour, lovingness, adventure, interests, conversation skill, work ethic and positivity may not be standard in this package. (please refer to our gold category for an upgrade - yearly upgrades available - no tradeins accepted)

Teds emporium for wives discourages the meeting of girlfriends via friends, family, work, everyday activities or at any social gatherings, as it can not compete with out 6 day gold express wife service (powered by teds emporiums computer processed compatibility test - we save u time getting to know your girlfriend)

special announcement
Teds emporium of wives is revealing an exciting new product line "Welcome New Year 2007 hats and sparklers". To avoid disappointment book your wife, hat or sparkler in advance. (one free hat and sparkler for every wife ordered - for our muslim customers, we have a 4 wife delivery limit)

dhl delivery can be arranged, air holed packaging can be provided for an additional process fee




like the "double down" concept as applied to relationships(that is funny) - in some asian cultures u can go double or quites on the bill in a store/restaurant etc, in vietnam they use dice, if the customer rolls 2-6 you get the purchase for free, 7-12 they pay double to the store. the business has a 6/5 advantage but there are alot of takers

Ok I would agree with the short but what do you mean by we speak funny? I beg to differ.

There is no general classification. Like any other nationality, a person's character would be based on environment, upbringing, education, social class and life experiences.

funny is this context means unusual and not understood by the observer.
(or maybe he is saying pinoys are jokers)
