flowerforyou I know you are really excited and happy and it may sound like we are just raining on your parade. We are all very happy that you are happy, but there is some good advice here. Please listen.

Is there some reason why you are getting married? Could you just live with each other for a while? If he's coming to you to get married...why not just be together and not get married? Or better yet....don't live together either. If he's serious enough to marry you, then he could move closer to you and you can just date normally for a year. Or two. Please think about it. flowerforyou

This is a very good advice. I think you should think about this one. thank you girl for giving a piece of your mind to a fellow who seems to be shaken a little bit.

Thank you ladies for all the REACTIONS, they may have strong impact to me, as if I have done the wrong choice, but I still want to thank you all for being so concerned about my welfare. I assume you do not know the whole story of it (though some of my long time friends here know) that's why it is natural for you to strike me with all those warnings LOL. Don't worry, me and my fiance are not the type that just pretend, we earned each others' respect and trust from the ups and downs that we met along the way coupled with honesty, patience and perseverance because we both have faith and we both know we are meant for each other. Too bad we didn't meet when we were younger sad LOL

At least for me Asian girls are the Bee's Knees!

Especially when they really do know martial arts!

This Western Dragon is looking for an Eastern Dragoness...

Inter Racial (cultural) relationships require some understanding of the other culture as well as adaptation to the differences. Family values are definitely different. So are many family values. Like life, you adapt or you die. Same with any relationship.

I have good friends who have been married for over 20 years .. she's Filipina, he's Caucasian. They are great. flowerforyou



this is what i want to hear in this topic, what they happen in a relationship for different culture, co'z i 'm a filipina and i been in a relationship with american, but its to complicated...


this is a big issue for us... "DISTANCE" we live in different cities...
but we still have strong felling for each other, wer still holding the HOPE... that someday, we could be together... maybe this is a trial for us... to see until how long to love each other... but every day, every minute, every second... its really sad... missing each other so badly... but i know time will tell...

thanks..:smile: :smile: :smile:



OP: It's not a what do you think about a "Filipina & American", as "What do we think about LDRs (long distance relationships)?"

I personally do not care for LDRs, but I won't tell someone not to consider. It's up to you and him. If you believe that you are both on the same page in terms of the relationship and where you want it to go.....then go for it!
