The character of a philippina?

[BoatViking]

I know the heading may sound provocing and I know that that they all are individuals.

But since I am new to this country (I have however lived in Thailand) I would be thankfull for any tips on common traits in characters to be aware of, things to avoid and any pitfalls in dating a woman from the phillipines.

Hi BV, welcome to PL.

First thing, a Philippina is a small planet orbiting the sun so I don't think that anyone here can give you the character of that. 

As you said before in your first sentence "they are all individuals", the common traits in one may not apply to the other. Also "what to avoid & the pitfalls" to dating a woman in one area may not apply to an other.

I would suggest reading the book that Ray suggested in reply to your first post - that would be a good start.

Also there are a lot of very useful info in the archives, do a search by "key words" and you will get a lot of results and if you need clarification, we will be happy to help.

Reading the book and searching/reading the archives would be a good start. And if you need further guidance then we will be happy to help.

i would say that "K" is rite on the money
no 2 are the same
my wife is a real penny pincher
her sister on the other hand who is a year older spends every peso in her pocket
in no time at all buying stuff at the mall.
they both grew up on the same island in the same house
but they are as different as night & day

i'll also add that i myself favor a province girl rather than a lady from Manila
but i'm not saying that all the ladies in Manila are bad (hold off for now with the hate mail boys)
