I think that your comments are indeed judgmental. You are not basing it on reality, but rather, you are basing it on your own opinion. Not because you see 2 or 3 Pinays who are after foreigners for money, eh, ing-ana na tanan. Please do not generalize.
@ hera - agree on this...
@ jugs - cool lang bro....
@athene - let me join the conversation....i am a real live example of somebody who married a foreigner much older than me...
1 - i did not need the husband to go abroad...before i met him i visited 18 countries already...i had a 10 year multiple entry US visa...so definitely did not need him to go to US
2 - i went to school...i passed the board...i busted my ass at work until i got my break...i was fortunate enough to work for a good company and was paid big time...as in big time (setting modesty aside) ...all because of my own brains and diskarte.....
3 - that being said....i was far more loaded than my husband....(he is a poet...musician...so you know how "rich" they can be he he he) ....i left a very high profile job ....gave up everything i had...to marry a struggling older american gentleman.....
now that i have spilled my story out...i hope this can open the eyes of those who jump to conclusions....and by the way not everybody wants to go abroad...i know of so many who had the chance but said NO....
and for those who marry for security reasons...i believe in the long run they learn to accept their fate and are happier with their new life....plus naka tabang pa sa ilang pamilya....so dili man sad siguro ingon ana ka dehado....
ikaw man gud jugs...na naka litanya na sad nuon ko....ngeeee.....
