Does this happen to you? Do you get emails from your friends and relatives back in the Philippines, asking you to find them a girlfriend or boyfriend here in the US of A? I made one match already, but I need to know: Will it ever stop? :wub::angry::(:unsure::wacko::whistle::dead:

Hokey Smoke!

Rocky: "Baby, are they still mad at us on VJ?"

Bullwinkle: "No, they are just confused."

Yes. Most of my friends often ask if my fiance has a brother. He has a brother but i have no plans of playing matchmaker. I often say NO. The NO often stop the asking.

I told my fiance' that I would do my best to scour for her best-friend, who also happens to be her cousin. However, I also told her that this whole long-distance, e-love, foreign national K-1 experience is a TOUGH - tough 'sell' for most men.

I thank God for the stranger who approached me in a Filipino restaurant, just because he felt the need to spread the 'gospel' {little 'g'} about Filipinas. :dance: My fiance' refers to him as our angel, because he sparked my interest in the first place.

You must explain to her the stigma in our country associated with simply going on-line for dating. Let alone dealing with all of the 'mail-order bride' ####### everyone throws your way. All the gossip behind your back, or comments to your face. Then, that whole adventure of leaving our country, and yes...the expense. THEN, you do fall in love, and the tortuous WAITING process. {ALL WORTH IT, don't misunderstand!}.

It can be a tough one for many men, LOL. But, don't get discouraged. The best you can do is to love your husband, and other men will see it, and how happy he is, and they'll ASK. ;)

I think it's a common Filipino trait.

It happens when someone finds a good looking or a responsible husband, not necessarily American or foreigner. Friends or neighbors will be like "Does he have a brother?". I think sometimes it's a form of flattering me indirectly, and feels happy seeing me having a good life as they perceive.

When my friends say "Find me someone like him (meaning American). I know my girlfriends are not serious because if they are, they will find their way themselves. I think they're not serious and just kidding me around.
