Do Filipinas HATE Sharing Their Foreign Man?

Filipino culture sees romantic relationships as something that cannot be achieved in a breeze. The Philippines have the concept of “ligaw” or courtship where men make the effort to prove their sincerity to a Filipina before they can be considered a potential match. Even as modern times progress, Filipinas remain expectant of a courtship period when a man expresses an intention of dating them. Such efforts show a man’s overall commitment to his woman. This practice also translates to emerging WMAF ( Western Male Asian Female ) relationships which are becoming more prevalent in cities like Manila, Cebu or Davao.

It may be challenging enough for any man to guaranty a match with one Filipino woman who expects effort but the constant creation of new WMAF relationships shows many guys are up to the challenge. A man with polyamorous ambitions will often fail to achieve such a dream of romantic connections multiple Filipinas. Even so, Filipina women tend to allow foreign men a chance to show what they can give. Filipinas can be hopeless romantics who believe in someone's potential.

However, if a Pinay finds out that you wish to date multiple Filipinas long term, she will see your efforts as meaningless. As natural as dating multiple women may be for a polyamorous foreign man, a traditional Filipina believes that real love and commitment should be shared by only two people. Foreigners need to know this as a fact before even thinking of dating Filipino women.

Philippine women know the effort it truly takes to keep a relationship alive. When dating for marriage, most Manila Filipinas reflect on their choices before fully making the decision to be a Filipina pea to a foreigner’s pod.
