life abroad is all just about the 'getting used to'. anad-anad raman na. if you choose not to have friends (or at least a bestfriend)---and you choose to work 3 jobs at a time doing 80 hours or more a week, then you'd end up lonely. nobody told you to do so---it's your choice.
however, if you live life abroad like you would back home in the Philippines, it's easier. you mingle with other people, enjoy your hobbies, find a job that you'd enjoy---and all is good. it's just like living in the Philippines.
