Many foreigners travel solo to the Philippines in search of a wife, with most being drawn to the alluringly
beautiful
Filipino women who embody traditional femininity. For a tribe of men looking beyond their domestic dating options,
Filipinas represent the qualities most desire in
a wife.
Take Les, for example, a real estate developer from the United States. After years of searching, his journey to
find
love led him to Filipina cupids at an Asian matchmaking service while browsing online. Although he initially
signed up,
he didn’t engage in any Philippines dating events due to the pandemic and other life commitments. However, when
Les felt
ready for a serious relationship, he sought the guidance of international matchmakers to explore dating Asian
women in
the Philippines.
When asked why he preferred matchmaking over Filipina dating apps, Les expressed his appreciation for the
structured
environment that the service offers. Les found that dating apps often felt impersonal, lacking the genuine
connection
that comes from face-to-face interactions.
“Don’t waste your time sending messages,” he recalled matchmakers saying. “You can’t really get to know someone
online
until you sit down across the table and feel the vibe.” This philosophy resonated with him, and when he finally
attended
the Cebu speed dating socials and met Mercy, he felt an instant connection within just five minutes.
Before attending the Philippine matchmaking event, Les had some doubts but chose to keep an open mind. He
reassured
himself that even if he didn’t meet his Filipina pea, he would still enjoy his time on a beautiful island filled
with
breathtaking scenery and traditional Asian women. “If I meet a beautiful Filipino girl that I fall in love with,
fabulous. If I don’t, I’m still going to have a good time,” he said.
During the event, Les had only five minutes to engage with each Filipina at his table before moving on. On the
second
night, he decided to ask specific questions to assess compatibility. One question stood out: if a Filipina could
travel
anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would they go? Only two Filipino girls provided thoughtful answers, but
Mercy’s
response was particularly memorable: “Paris with you because it’s a city of love.” This was especially significant
for
Les, as he had already planned a trip to Paris in June.
Les found his time at the Filipino dating event to be more than just a chance to meet single women in the
Philippines.
He discovered it was also a great way to connect with other foreigners actively dating Filipinas. He pointed out a
key
difference between this experience and dating back in the United States: the camaraderie.
Instead of competition, there was genuine support among foreigners dating in the Philippines. "We became instant
friends," Les explained, "supporting and encouraging each other." This unexpected bonus added a whole new
dimension to
the trip, something he feels many wouldn't anticipate.
For a legion of men hesitant about traveling to date Filipinas due to financial concerns, Les reassured them that
while
it may seem like a significant investment at first glance, the value is undeniable. The cost covers not just
accommodation and speed dating events but also experiences with a Filipina that one might typically spend on
travel
elsewhere. “When you look at all that’s included for 7, 10, or 14 days, it’s an incredible value,” he pointed out.
Les encourages anyone considering a Philippines dating tour to take that leap of faith finding their Filipina
wife.
Through realistic expectations coupled with an open heart and mind, foreigners aiming above the passport bro
movement
can find the Filipina pea to their pod while enjoying the rich Asian culture with matchmakers at their side.
