  • Why I went looking for a wife overseas is a question I got asked often in the states. It's not always opening talked about amongst friends, family or coworkers. Looking for a wife abroad seems to still be a very miss understood topic.

    I'm a western woman and I can say that I can fully understand why you married her! :-) The reasons you bring forth are very understandable and not too shallow. I feel that dating in western cultures has become so grotesque with traditional values and real love, kindness and genuine interest in the other person have become rare!

      American Women are Psychologically programmed to be Anti-Family and not reproduce.
      As a result, many American women are not acceptable to traditional family oriented men.

      I met my wife in Canada 9 years ago and I feel like I won the lottery. When I started looking for a relationship at that time I guesstimated I would have to go on 100 first dates to find the right one. I got “lucky” although I feel like it was destiny.

      I was married once and she divorced me after 24 years supposedly for being too strict with our son. So far he’s turning out to be a wonderful young man with great values. Didn’t realize at the moment the favor she was doing me but after a few months of being away from her toxic behavior It finally dawned on me. Never been happier and wish I could thank her but don’t want to be near negative and toxic individuals so I’ll never thank her I guess.
      Hopefully my next companion can appreciate the simple things in life, like companionship, good conversation, experiencing new foods, watching Netflix, sleeping in at times, reading a book on a beach,and traveling together. I’m going to enjoy life while still young and not worry about working. I’m 47 years young, plus young at heart, full of energy and most importantly much much wiser.

    I married a Filipina girl after knowing her for only 2 weeks. We will shortly be celebrating our 38th anniversary. At the time of our marriage, my wife looked very similar to your wife but after 38 years she is not quite as fit as your spouse. And the same goes for me also. However I do not regret for a minute my hasty decision to marry her because she is everything that any reasonable man would want in a life partner. Thanks for your story.

    I am in tears. Tears of joy and hope, to be clear. You both are such great people and I am so happy for you! The way you treat each other is... it just blows my mind. I don't think I have ever commented on a CZcams video before but I really feel the need to. I found your channel this morning and have just spent probably 3 hours watching your videos. I was smiling for most of all of them. And this one I finally broke when you told the birthday food story.
    I have had a few serious and a few short-term relationships in the U.S. and none of them were genuinely satisfying. None. I was with a Turkish girl for 6 years, mostly long-distance except when I was living short term in Istanbul or she flew to Chicago (she got a job at Emirates Airline to be able to come see me more). I loved her so much but things didn't work out and I ended what was the best relationship I ever had.
    I have been all over the world, and all over the U.S. and find that you are spot on with your assessment. Having been generally stuck in the U.S. since 2019 when my relationship ended, I have become so lonely - for many reasons. I have begun to think about how and when I am going to move to Portugal, or Bali, or the Philippines. All great places, but the weight of your honesty just pushed me much further toward the Philipines because I am at a point where love like this is a priority for me.
    Anyway... I didn't mean for this comment to be about me, I meant for it to be about how much hope you brought me. The love you have for each other is very inspiring and I thank you so much for sharing your stories and experiences.

It's easy to be a good, 'submissive', traditional woman who's completely devoted to family when your husband retires you from work - and I say that as an import bride, because I am one of those women, so I know what I'm talking about lol (I moved from Eastern Europe to live as a housewife in Germany)

    Don't ever apologise mate, telling the truth always offend the weak minded and those that are sensitive. I agree with you 1000% I am a western man (Australian) and I had my share of partners over the years (white women) and I got sick and tired of being treated poorly, cheated on, dis-respected and so on. I found out that many Asian women possess traditional values, were respectful and caring and looked after their men as long as you took care of them also. I ended up marrying one 23 years ago and we are still together with two grown daughters. I met my wife here in Australia back in 1999 and I had never been to the Filipines until 2018, a full 19 years after we first met. We are like any other couple, we disagree on things, sometimes argue when we see things differently and we also love each other regardless of those differences. One thing I learned very early on was to respect her culture, food choices and their love of gathering with their friends etc. I never stopped her from being who she is and she did the same for me. Perfect match. I will tell you that some of the white women I used to be in relationships with I still know today, friends on FB etc but none of them seem very happy to this day. They seem to treat men like crap, and wonder why they are still single all these years. They explain that all men are bad but cannot see they are the cause of their own loneliness. I actually feel bad for them but it makes me glad that I made the decision to marry an Asian woman. I am very happy and content now.

I know NZ is relatively westernized and shares many of the same problems in dating as the US but I do also love the culture and people, there's good jobs there in my field of VFX and was thinking maybe since there's a large Asian and Maori population that maybe just focusing more on women from those cultures would be enough to find some of the qualities I'm looking for. Plus I'm American so hopefully that would help me stand out. Is this a pipe dream you think or naw? I just worry that the Philippines would be such a massive culture shock and that I'd have a harder time finding a school to put the kids, I'm concerned about the fact that I couldn't own property whereas NZ there's strong property rights, and also NZ seems safer and there's no language barrier at all... Thoughts?

For me one of the biggest letdown in the PH as a foreigner is not being able to own a property.

She proceeded to tell me that whatever amount I was going to spend on her is the amount she would spend on the street children...because they have very little. So I sent her the funds and she in turn purchased food for a dozen or more children and people on the street and with help of a few friends they made up sacks of food and handed them out. That touched my heart like never before. She has a heart of gold and always thinking of others before herself. I am a very lucky man to have found a woman like her.

As someone who prides themselves on being a critical analyst, I can honestly say that I have nothing but appreciation for what you both bring to the table. It's clear to see the admiration in the girl's eyes as she looks at the guy, and the way they touch each other and express their emotions is just beautiful. I would love to hear more from the girl and hear her perspective because she clearly has a clever imagination and her expressions are so captivating. The accents only add to the exotic appeal of it all, especially when it comes to second language applications. You're a very lucky man, and I genuinely believe that the girl has the potential to become one of the best people in the world. Thank you for sharing this incredible moment, I must admit I'm getting a bit emotional. Oh, and I forgot to mention that I actually lived in the Philippines and had a girlfriend there, so everything you said about it resonates with me deeply. I'm currently in Thailand, but after watching your video, I'm compelled to go back to the Philippines. Lastly, do you have any plan to enhance the universe with some children?

Like you, I think I would have sacrificed my own happiness, for the sake of having my two sons grow under a traditional marriage. However, when our spouses filed for divorce, we had no choice. The decision was unilaterally made. Now, we can rejoice in having taken the high ground, we're free of the toxic relationship. Our son(s) adore us, and we've moved on to better relationship prospects. Not that I'm in a new relationship, but I'm excited about what the future might bring given all I have to offer.

Fortunately, it was all on video and when the officer began to ask me if I ever feared for my life or felt in danger I took the high road and didn’t pursue charges against her. After all, the outcome via courts was awesome no child support nor spousal maintenance, I keep my retirement 100% and only had to pay her $5,299.50 after her and her attorney were trying to extort me for $185K.

      The separation between men and women in the United States has become institutionalized, with divorce courts taking everything the man has, and most things that he will have. American women opt out of their marriage because they get a big cash prize if they do.

    One thing you did not touch on that is important is you took your time, got to know her, brought her to your home country and vetted her properly. The face-to-face time is really important if you want to select correctly. You have done that at home and the Philippines so you knew exactly what her faults were, her strengths and what roles each will have for the relationship to succeed. For a man who is looking for a wife, the Philippines is a really good option if he does not want to learn a different language.

    Very interesting, Solid Video and Couple. I can relate to the dynamic. She seems like all the things listed in the video. As she gets older I’m sure her self assuredness will solidify. I was the same way in my early 20s. I married an older man of a different culture. It really expedited my emotional maturity progression and increased confidence in who I was as a person overall. Lots of respect and regard for your spouse. He’s a relatively traditional man with high ethics, standards and a history of success and winning in life with a positive outlook. He’s not perfect but he’s close.I will forever be indebted to him for helping me become a stronger person. Marriage is not always rainbows and sunshine. If marriage was illegal where we are, I still would have married him. As was stated in the video life partnership and marriage is an extremely serious life commitment. It’s refreshing to see couples like this. Much success and happiness to both of them!

    I'm an overweight Mexican American who met his wife at work back in 2012. She's a petite white woman, she's extremely fit (abs with strong muscle tone at about 110lbs at 5ft 4in), she couldn't care any less about brands or anything luxury for that matter, and she is gorgeous. We get stares when we go out because we just don't seem like we'd be together. I don't come from money (we met working at a grocery store) so she's definitely not with me for that. I've been working towards getting into better shape now that we have a daughter together and also because I want her to have some eye candy too. But my point is that it's easy to judge guys who look for overseas wives but your argument is 100% valid. If I wasn't already the luckiest man alive and I was still looking for a partner I think I really would have gone your route because it's what I look for in a woman as well. I appreciate you making this video because this definitely changed my mind on the process and it was fun learning about it!

    I'm from the Netherlands but it's the same here and I completely agree with all your points. I lost faith in finding a good relationship or long lasting marriage in the West so I basically moved to South East Asia because of this, along with some other reasons of course. Plus, western family court leaves most men devastated. Women in SEA are clearly different. Strong family values, friendlier, feminine, sexy, supportive, sweet, not arrogant, not narcistic and more appreciative. There're always exceptions of course. But it's sad that many men need to go look overseas to find a good wife. Wish you and your wife much luck.

      Living in a small country, where the population is similar or smaller than the population of biggest cities in the world, practically I have to compete for the job with highly skilled professionals from the entire world. Luckily, the competitive pressure is significantly less with regard to finding the partner. In marriage not the accumulated wealth or revenue promise is the goal, therefore everybody can be good match to someone. But for revenue source (jobs), certainly the number of competitive revenue sources are much-much less than the number of couples in the world.

      It’s a very, very tiny fraction of the population every year. The stats that I found is this: Approximately 0.028% of the female population in the Philippines marry foreign men annually, based on the data from 2020. 3 in 10,000. Many of these women are older and have a child out of wedlock, so they are not on the regular dating market for most Filipino guys. These are second chance marriages. Also, 1 in 5 marriages, the Filipino guy is married to the Foreign woman. A lot of these Filipinos are already in our country are medical professionals, teachers and IT professionals. They left your dating market and are in our market. I met my wife in the US and the same is true for our son.
      The financial impact on families in the Philippines is big also. We’ve financed sibling education, built homes, paid medical bills and help parents come to the US. So, I do think this is a good thing for both countries. Happiness is multiplied, where there would otherwise be a gap.

    I definitely understand all these points. Some I'm flexible on, like a woman's size and degree of old-fashioned-ness, but I understand the preference. But the last few personality trait reasons - generosity, modesty, committing, gratefulness, etc are what REALLY hit home with me. I'm 39 and have been single/dating for the past decade and it is...rough. And difficult to find those traits in American/ized women. Like you stressed, it's not ALL western women who are ungrateful or lack modesty, etc, but it is not easy to find them.
    I started international online dating in 2020 and have flown to Honduras to meet a woman, which ended up not working out, and may be flying to Colombia in a few months to meet another. I'd really like to talk to more women from Asia, but I limit myself due to budgeting as flights to Asia cost 3-4x more than flights to Central/South America. Anyway, glad you found yours. The funny thing is, a lot of my married or recently divorced guy friends/family say they'd do the exact same thing if they were single and looking. It's just like a known thing that 70-80% of American men have it so bad in the dating scene in the states.

      Not materialistic?? Seriously?? Have you seen what this guy has given her?? Why didn't she marry a boy from her village??
      Because she wanted the life only a white westerner could give her!!
      I've been married to a Filipina for 17 years, and they are even more competitively materialistic than western women!!
      It doesn't mean they don't love us, but they also love what we can do for them!!

      @@mikthe2004 oh.. hi.. now..that’s is why.. it’s you experience not ours… it so funny that how you think.. To think it’s your wife that is like that then you assumed that I’m like that too? It so sad. I am sorry you married a wrong Filipina… Ans I understand your frustration. .
      I hope one day she will learn to know what really is important… that she will grow…
      Thank you for watching… I will respect your comments because it’s all about your life. Not mine.
      Thank you.

      @@Rachel00813 No, you misunderstand me. When I met my wife I had left my government job, and I didn't get another job - bus driving - until she actually came to Australia on the marriage visa. I had met her in person in the Philippines 6 months earlier.
      So, my wife certainly didn't marry me for my money!! I didn't have any!! I actually had to borrow money from my parents to fund my trip there, and to pay for her to come to Australia.
      But I think it's incorrect to say that Filipinas aren't interested in money, and are happy with a simple life??
      Maybe if they have no choice - yeah - but everybody aspires to a better life don't they??
      It's fairly obvious when you see a 20 year old Filipina with an 80yr old fat ugly westerner, that they are in it for the money?
      I think we can both agree on that? But Corey is young and handsome enough (great bod - obviously trains in the gym) to have a genuine romance with you. Even so, I'd guess he's in his early 40's and you're in your early 20's?
      That's kind of like my wife and me. I was 44 and she was 27. Like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.,
      I wish you and Corey the best. Here's my wife and I at our Philippines wedding (we had one in Australia first)
