Foreigners Hiding In The Philippines

The Mrs is  always quick to point out another foreigner... in the supermarket,  or wherever (real rarity seeing another white man here where we live).

I just think why the hell should I put myself out to speak to someone (assuming he wants to speak to me anyway !) just because he's an obvious poriner... like me. Sure, a nod and a knowing look,  but  I'm a big boy. Don't need 'hugs from home' . :whatever:

"Don't need 'hugs from home"   Agree Graham. :no:

During my visits I used to often nod or say "hi" to others who were clearly Foreigners. I stated something to do with this here awhile back and I think Jack made a more detailed similar comment to yours and he kinda opened my eyes.

Well, that's fine. Chacun son goût. Some want to meet other foreigners, some don't. It would be a sad state of affairs if all the many foreigners who don't want to chat were wife-beaters!

Not a coward.

Never struck a woman in my life, and never will do.  :thumbsup:
