Before You Break A Heart…

Before you break a heart, and keep in mind that heart might be your own, stop for a moment and ask yourself “Why?”

Why a Filipina? Why not a woman from your own culture? OK, so you believe western women are getting too demanding, too much like the femi-nazi stereotype the shock jocks moan about. If that is true, ever wondered why?

If you couldn’t maintain a relationship with a woman who knows what you mean when you say something because she has the same language level and use of context as you, what makes you think you can communicate with a Filipina?

Most of the sweet young things that go online to find a partner are not the best educated of the population. Their English might be good conversationally when everything is simple and going well. But they can quickly lose the meaning of what you are saying simply because they have different connotations for the same words.

My wife was horrified and hurt when I casually said ‘I don’t care’. To her Filipina ears that means I don;t care about her, us, love, marriage or anything! If you say ‘conniving’ you can never say it humorously. It always means a corrupt and almost criminal conspiracy.

The best advice I can give you is to take your time. Enjoy the process of falling in love and keep that for after you have met in person. We can all easily fall in love when we are lonely, desperate for company and find an attractive and willing person online. Things happen at light speed nowadays and you could feel very strongly for someone in just a few weeks, even days.

I hope this has given you something to think about. Think about your motives and what you expect from the relationship and we’ll discuss that next time.
