John Michael Kane Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I've heard traditionally that Filipinas when they meet a prospect they really like they tend to accelerate the process of dating, to commitment, to marriage rather quickly. Stories of meeting family and friends within a few dates, expecting to be steady bf/gf shortly thereafter. I'm very much interested in a serious relationship, but it seems hard to rush head first into one until you really know the other person. Is there any way to slow down a Pinay that is really pushing hard for exclusivity before you even get to know her? I'm not interested in sleeping around or playing a bunch of girls, and would actually be open to marrying a Filipina, but I like to do things at my own pace. Your thoughts? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hounddriver Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Is there any way to slow down a Pinay that is really pushing hard for exclusivity Yes, but if she slows down she's just not that into you. Latin passion at work. Spanish influence :dance: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Michael Kane Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 Lol, that's kind of what I figured! The thing of it is, I don't know how long I'll be in the country for. It could only be three months or so, and I'd ideally like to get situated here more long-term, then get into a relationship. I've heard of many expats starting a relationship and going back to their home country, continuing a LDR with their Filipina, but for me, I'd vastly prefer to date and stay locally. I guess just because a Filipina may be small, doesn't mean that she doesn't have passion! Don't let the size fool you and all that. :) Thanks for the pointer, and the laugh! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Steve Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 IMO....Usually what we think is a casual meet up at a place to eat to have casual conversation, well in our eyes (Western way) is in her eyes (Filipino ways) is a start of a potential relationship-and is usually viewed as courting regardless of how you see it . If you make it crystal clear you don't want to rush things-and with frequent reminders maybe she can take that at face value, but her culture has brought her up to see it differently.This is more prevelant primarily in the province areas where courting practices are rather old fashioned and conservative (with some exceptions of course) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most things Filipina, its not so simple. Some Filipinas would be insecure another would "steal you" or want to close the deal on the ATM card. They would be quick to have you commit in some manner. A conservative woman may expect a commitment as a prelude to serious courting. It would be normal in Filipina culture for you to meet friends and family fairly quickly in a dating situation. I think that would signal a good thing. Clearly communicating your interest in having an honest serious relationship with someone special and that it takes time to grow a relationship should be enough to for a reasonably mature Filipina. Its understandable she would need reassured you are not playing around. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
