wayneseymour Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) here I go again guys...this time I'm in the right post area(I think) This is maybe a touchy issue..not meaning to be male domineering person but is there any issues trying to train( bad word)... re-educate your GF or wife to rethink the way they use to do things ie spending habits, stop doing things in an maybe old fashion way, etc. I just put this out there to see if any members may have had to struggle with this, how they succeeded if at all or just what is the take on such a issue.seeing as I may have to ...(all goes along with knowing your partner once you meet them and want to be with them) or am I just full of toro fillings. :kidding: :hystery: :hystery: :hystery: :hystery: sorry for the bad spelling of the title...too much coffee :morning1: :cheersty: Edited August 6, 2012 by wayneseymour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OldUgly&Cranky Posted August 6, 2012 Popular Post Posted August 6, 2012 Wayne dont get me wrong because i dont know you too well so i im not judging you or anything ok !! but i think you 2 choices of words are a little harsh how to train , or re-educate ??? the one thing i have learned in 10 years dealing with Filipina's is that they are great at making the best of what money they have , if you said those 2 words to a city girl in manila or prob cebu you wouldn't have them around you to long !!! and if you feel the need to change the person your with then whats the point of being with them ??? i have been with my lady for almost 10 years and not once did i have to say i want you to change or vice versa i wouldn't want the person i love telling me i have to change , that comes with trust i know where my $ that i send goes it goes for the kids education the house , and daily living expenses !!! . honestly my friend if you felt you have to change that person your with then i say run away the two of you arent compatible in the first place , and yes im sure you will get some flak of your post but as i said im not judging you because i dont know you well enough and its not for me to judge anyone as i dont like being judge myself but i think you might have opened a big can of worms my friend !!! take care !!!

Jake Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) THIS SHOULD BE AN INTERESTING THREAD-but as for me, if I try and re-train my Asawa (wife in the native language wayne) she will soon reeducate me with a Bolo! Boy, you've got that right! My wife is from Batangas, which is famous for the Balisong knifes. She knows how to whip it out.....so I know how to avoid that ground zero when she's pissed off at me. A long time ago, I tried in vain how to teach the basic fundamentals of the word BUDGET, as well as time management. After 27 years of married, she's up to the letter D.....he, he. I gave up eventually. Patience and don't sweat the small chit -- Jake Edited August 7, 2012 by Jake 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dave Hounddriver Posted August 6, 2012 Popular Post Posted August 6, 2012 You train your filipina partner using the reward system. Tell her what you need. Give her money. She will say: Yes honey. She will train you using tears, stubbornness, silent treatment and much more emotional manipulation than you can possibly imagine. It may take her 10 years, but she WILL train you. At least that is what I see in about 95% of relationships as I look around 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jack Peterson Posted August 7, 2012 Popular Post Posted August 7, 2012 :unsure: oh dear Wayne, NOT! a Good Start to your day I feel :no: something I would not have expected from you at all. so many cliches here for you to ponder, maybe you are trying to run before you can walk., why try and mend things that are not yet broken? A Good Filipino Lady can make 500peso go a darn site further than we ever could. Time management?? Where will you be going to in such a Hurry, OH down the Pub/ Bar ah! OK! silly me of course, you don't have to change do you? it is always others. :unsure: We have had a few chauvinists on this forum, it is well documented that at a large proportion of them, are just insecure men who, Turn out in the end, to be Women haters. Stop look and Listen Wayne, Please, don't end up like some we have had of late. Now, lets put the shoe totally on the other foot, the lady comes to you. role reversal, she has the money and the fancy ideas. HOW would you like it if she wanted to re- train you, into HER way of living. HER way of budgeting. In YOUR Country. I have spent the last 10 years working in Spain, these wonderful People could show the spanish a thing or two about life and the manana attitude, it is in there blood The obvious side to this for you is to find the right lady for you, I doubt you will find one too quickly if you talk about this issue to them. On this topic I think you need to rethink your views on our Filipino ladies. Something tells me, you have been reading to many bad luck posts somewhere. The majority of us will have some things, we would like to change but it ain't going to happen , When you meet, your prospective mother-in-Law you, will understand more fully. Just my Tuesday early morning thought on the Subject. sorry if it sounds harsh but you do need to re educate YOURSELF a little, if you intend to settle here. Not just you but anyone. This just happens to be, your Baby today my Friend. :) 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i am bob Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 I think I understand, Wayne... I believe you may just have chosen the wrong words to express yourself the way you wanted... All the responses were very good and very true... Finding a good woman in the Philippines is like finding a good woman anywhere else in this world - and finding the woman of your dreams? No need to worry, my friend! Wait for the experience and then ask yourself again if you have worries then. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
