Hong Kong or Singapore based Filipina

[EdwardB]

I'd be interested in chatting with a Hong Kong or Singapore based Filipina.

I've been around on the forum for a while, and as will be seen from my contributions I have enjoyed a relationship with a Filipina for 3 years now. But because of class, culture, age & educational differences we have agreed that it isn't going any further.

Learning from past mistakes for anything to - slowly - develop beyond chat you would need to be educated to degree level, worldly wise, strong personality and probably late 20's at the youngest.

Posted her because if the person exists it is likely to be a friend or relative of an existing member. Thanks for reading.

Dare I ask, EdwardB...are you also educated to degree level, worldly wise, and has a strong personality?

[Tawi2]

When I lived in Hong Kong I had a teacher,criminologist,accountant and a engineer as girlfriends,thousands of educated pinays live there,many with uber-strong personalities,just attend social BBQ's parties etc,it is very,very easy to strike up a conversation,I am sure some of your friends in Honkers are married to pinays with single female relatives?All my mates there had pinay,thai or Indo wives,good luck with your search

He is not applying for a job.

[miss.piggy]

He is not applying for a job.

Did anyone say he is???? I asked the question because I used to live in Hong Kong and Singapore. If he is looking for these characteristics, then the people I know who fits the bill could be looking for the same. I don't see any reasons why a Filipina can't be having the same standards...do you Beppe?

"Set your standards and do what you think is right for you.
No point to enter in any relationship if you are not comfortable with."

I take your above view to be for everybody -- Filipinos are not exempted.

[EdwardB]

No, I went straight down the mines & never left home until I came to live in the gutter!!!

Oh perfect, goodluck on your search then.

LOL, and i suppose you believe you can get such filipinas more likely in hongkong and singapore?????
Probably you would find one there or probably not...it depends...
after all, you will equally attract a person of your own caliber...as the saying goes "you are who you attract",
and geographical location has nothing to do with it, but that's just my opinion though
Best of luck then on your quest

No nothing like that complicated. I have spent a huge amount of time in Hong Kong & Singapore in the last 12 months & am likely to relocate to Singapore within the next year. Previous few years I spent a lot of time in Manila.

As for the "list".... I'm just realistically making sure I don't make the same mistake of the last 3 years. Love the girl as I do I just couldn't take the Philippines out of the girl!! & she just can't get comfortable out of The Philippines.

You attract a person of your caliber? Like attracts like? I once had an exceptionally intelligent woman,multi-lingual and sharp as a scalpel blade,easily a Mensa intellect,when I asked her what she saw in me she said opposits attract

LOL, can be tawi2
For some, "opposites attract", for others, "you attract your exact clone and replica", lol
to each his own......whatever works.....

[Tawi2]

Well,she did tell me she liked to "Dumb-down" sometimes But I hope Edward finds the lady of his dreams

hey, you are an exceptionally intelligent man yourself, likewise a poet and multi lingual at that (considering how many dialects you know from all over pinas, lol)

[Sophie]

oh, so that explains why you're looking for filipinas from there, since they are more likely to be well versed and well adjusted already to the life outside the philippines...and probably more exposed already....

As for the "list".... I'm just realistically making sure I don't make the same mistake of the last 3 years. Love the girl as I do I just couldn't take the Philippines out of the girl!! & she just can't get comfortable out of The Philippines.

Oh well, you probably just happen to meet somebody who's not as adventurous and up for new things and would rather stay in her comfort zone....
but that's understandable, as women are different in their preferences and interests....

And as for "you just couldn't take the philippines out of the girl" thing - sorry to say but it's true....
however, some girls can be extreme though while some can manage better and can cope well with change and adapt quicker....

so it all boils down to the personality of a person.....and what she's all about...
Hopefully, you meet one that will fit exactly to the criteria you're looking for

[Pepe n Pilar]

Hi EdwardB,

The cliche "You can't take the Philippines out of the girl" is very common. I may say that almost every filipina who has been away from her homeland really misses everything ..... everything!..... The stable job, the family, friends, relatives, etc etc. It is because that country has brought them many happy memories aside from the culture and tradition one has adapted since birth but when one has found her loved one and decided to have a life together and had chosen some place other than the Phils she should have adapted the changes that has taken place. You will be so lucky if you will find the girl that possesses those qualities and can easily adapt to the new culture she will face by marrying you. Many has that qualities hence they are here with their loved ones....(i'm one of them!)..

I just hope you will find that special girl with those criterias specified. Goodluck on your search.

Cheers!

Theres a lot of pinay DH's in Hong Kong,doesnt mean they arent degree holders,some do it to experience life abroad,some to escape something back home,be it a bad experience,a failed relationship or whatever,people are people,some of the smartest have no degree due to poverty or circumstance,the most interesting books I ever read were from an old second hand bookstore,the covers were thumbed and faded,but the words were alive and vibrant,I would rather have a woman with character written on her face and life experience,than someone who had sat in a uni for a few years,hope you find her edward

[GaryFifer]

who had sat in a uni for a few years,hope you find her edward

You seem not to have faith in the education system in PI. Is it sadly lacking and perhaps degree jobs are full of nepotism?

[Tawi2]

Gary,your putting words in my mouth or not fully comprehending what I am saying I wasnt slighting pinas standard of education at all,I am just saying sometimes someone with character and history shouldnt be overlooked because they werent fortunate to have a formal education,maybe I was thinking of myself Most of us have baggage,if you really like someone you'll help her carry it

[Tawi2]

Correct Mrs M,I was in Statue Square and Charter Gardens most sundays sitting around with puppy-dog eyes till some lady or another took pity on me and invited me to join their group for a chat and a feed The trick is to always look helpless,ladies cant resist that.

Correction, I am telling him that there are loads of pinay DH in HK because its a fact that you can find them every sunday in park having siyesta, hundredth or thousands

True, true Character is something you don't learn in shool, (although character education is part of the curriculum in most schools)
it is something molded in you as a person and inculcated in you as you grow up.....
and you then develop it over time through your life experiences......

you must know that many filipinas in hong kong and singapore will be maids,i think many who are working in better jobs and you will see some,most arnt looking to marry a foreigner?

can i ask why you have set such a high criteria in a woman because you may be looking for a long time,there are many of lovely filipinas all in manila why have you ruled them out?

Voice out from Singapore... Take note that Filipina maids are now outnumbered by skilled and professional Filipino here at SG...
You'll get a chance to meet of Filipina with a caliber you prefer by hanging out Friday and/or saturday in clubs which am sure u are familiar since u mentioned u been here for quite sometime...

Do note Lucky Plaza - Orchard road is a territory of most 'kasambahay' maid sunday 7am- 6pm... Dont tell me i didnt warn u

I can give you one referel that will perfectly match your indicated requirement if you are deadly seriously interested... but here in SG nothing is free,so i might charge u as 'Agent Fee' hahahahha..Kidding!

I always look at the character and personality of the person i want to spend the rest of my life ( of course 3B is added factor).... and those not mentioned are trivial for me to be consider as a factor...

Still.. All the Best!.

Does it say MADE IN HONG KONG on her puwit? I think if you have high expectations you will always reject ladies for many reasons. Just relax, go with the flow, and see if conversation and dating leads to what you wish. My high expectations were simple- I did not like ladies drunk and puking up and fighting outside taxi ranks, swearing. But every lady might do that once for a reason.

I just did not want lady like that because it remind me too much of my dad side of the family who are bunch of infighting idiots. I just wanted to better myself. But now I realize its what is in the heart that counts, even if she farts. Bahala na!

[MarBell379]

Personally, Ive always measured people on their individual merits. My girls background, education, upbringing etc couldnt be further from my own, but we get on fantastically.
By all means use such criteria as a 'qualifying out' excercise, but be aware you may be overlooking the perfect giel who just never had the chance to study for a degree.
