I am an American woman, old and wise, with a 50 year old son. He spent twenty years being married to a Philippine lady, and now is making plans to marry a Thailand woman. My son never wants to go back to America and even talked me into coming here to live. He absolutely despises white women, even though he's white himself. Now I am in Thailand, too, his white mother, and stuck in all this weird divorce stuff going on with #1. Sometimes I feel like hiding! And Hey! Why is it always about the women? I mean, I think Thailand guys are over-the-top wonderful! Oh wow! There goes the Thai gardener guy! Excuse me!

Not at all correct in Thailand things don't work out you simply walk away, in the Philippines if things don't work out it is a nightmare. Divorce in the Philippines is a dark ride into hell. 

I was speaking to the women themselves. Their not all that different. Not speaking on the countries legal systems, or the people's religious baggage. That said, divorce in Thailand was a breeze. Don't know about PI.

Having just spent 10 days there, I checked out a Filipina dating site and every girl I talked to either wanted to do cam shows, sell videos or after chatting for a few mins told me they had no food or needed money so we could video chat. Honestly I am much happier with Thai women over Filippinas

Nowt much wrong with what she is saying although i reckon the Thai girls are slightly ahead on the beauty stakes.

As for Filipinas speak English, it's very hit and miss. I actually broke up with my second Filipina because I couldn't understand what she was saying, and she had the same problem. For many Filipinas English is a third language. Some don't even speak Tagalog.

Absolutely correct, Filipina's have a tendency towards mental illness. My ex told me after I left her alone for 2 weeks she had dreams of demons possessing her.

 

She was also WAY WAY WAYYYYY  more transactional than any Thai girl I've ever met, demanding outrageous "allowance".

 

If you wife up a Filipina you're in a for a world of pain, usually.

I hope this does not come across as critisising in any way because it is in no way intended. Many of your recent posts constantly refer to you being 'tapped up' for an 'allowance'.

 

I don't know why it is a constant with yourself. Perhaps you have an air of affluence about you. Again, not critisising, many would be happy to have this perception about them. Others try to keep it under the radar so they don't get 'tapped up'.

 

Just interested on your thoughts why it seems to be a continuing trait and no offense intended in any way.

Silly to get angry about this. Both are very poor countries with ladies who want out of their current predicament. For either country to look down on the other is just silly. In my experience about 50% of mixed marriages fail, mostly due to unrealistic expectations as a result of the cultural divide, and often large age differences. I have lots of friends married to Thais and Filipinas and the relationships that have survived the early years are very successful.

I think that in UK 50% of marriages end in divorce so not much difference from mixed marriages down here .

Because I was dumb and inexperienced then, and I had fairly large income as a funds lawyer. I was also trading forex on the side and travelling through south-east asia, Caribbean. I would fly her over from Philippines to the Cayman Islands. So it was a bit hard to hide that I had money. When she realised how much, her demands for allowance kept increasing. Of course I put a stop to it eventually, and that was part of the reason why it fell apart. So nobody can tell me Filipinas are not "transactional". I just have to laugh.

The lady is being silly. You can't generalise about (35) million Thai women.

So a single lady in Manila is that much different than single lady in Bangkok?

TBH Philipinas are wannabe Americans.

Of course.

As someone who lived in the PI for 11 years and have now lived in Thailand for 15 years, I agree with the Filipina even though I have had great marriages with both Thai and Filipina ladies. I'm sure that my marriage experiences have been an exception to the rule. As a single man, the PI wins hands down!

Most of the Filipina are worst than Thai girls and they are gold diggers.on my personal opinion they are dirty , and their lifestyle in Philippines about 75% is beyond comparison to Thailand. And as per as their English ability, their pronunciation sucks , there are 1000 of stabs up comedy shows all over the world about their funny accent as well as funny way of saying things . 
if Thailand is so bad whey do they come here to work ? I saw Filipino working in country like Nepal, what yo talk about , UAE , Thailand, Bangladesh, India, Singapore, Hong Kong , China, Singapore, Malaysia and mostly domestic workers ( nothing wrong with that ) but at least not that many Thai women are working as domestic workers. Thai girls by nature are more clean and have access to better social life . I don’t mean to put down any nationality here but it’s funny when I see Filipino’s are making fun of Thais 

Sad

Never give a filipina an excuse to get jealous.  They can become very unhinged and a pain to live with. 

 

I couldn't even thank a checkout operator without many questions being asked later. 

 

Either you put up with it or get out as fast as you can.  8 months and I ran as fast as I could.  

 

No regrets

I was with my wife and a friend of hers walking along not bothering to join their conversation.   

But I heard the woman (American) ask my wife (Thai), what happens if your husband looks at other women?

My wife responded, I don't care if he looks at other women.  He is a man.  That's what men do!

A lot of Filipinas are gold diggers, but I have to say they are very clean. Even keep their poor houses very clean. Yah, English can be poor, but one thing Filipinas excell at is housekeeping .Better than Thais.

 

Also in the bedroom Filipinas are a bit better from my very limited real life sample.

I'm still on the fence with regards to which will hire someone to kill you faster if the relationship goes sideways.  Leaning towards Thai women/family being less likely to do it but it's close.

My Thai wife would never hire anyone to kill me.   She would keep the money and do the job herself!  😲
