Nowadays, foreigners dating, and eventually marrying, Filipinas is a very common phenomenon. Well, we can’t really blame foreigners when they fall for Filipinas because there’s really a lot to fall in love with. Sometimes however, Filipinas have a reputation for being gold diggers. But do not be discouraged. It’s true that some Filipinas look for foreigners to extort money from, but this is not always the case so it’s wrong to generalize. In this article, we came up with a list to show you that Filipinas are more than just a pretty face. So take time to read this article to find out 13 reasons why you should definitely date a Filipina.


1. Loyal and committed



If you date a Filipina, then you’ll be getting a good sleep every night without being paranoid that she will cheat on you. Filipinas are 100% loyal and committed when they enter relationships. All of them are on the hunt for long-term partners and not just someone to have a good time with so you can be sure that they will not get involved with a second man while you two are in a relationship.


2. Jack of all trades

You will be one of the lucky few if you are able to land a relationship with a Filipina because they can do all sorts of things. They can cook, wash the dishes, do the laundry, and they can even relax you with a massage! Looking for a girlfriend who will take care of you as much as a Filipina will is like looking for polar bears in Africa – it’s that hard, yes. So treat her like a treasure because she definitely is one.


3. Family-oriented

Filipinos have extended family ties. They have close relationships with the entire family – and by entire family, I meant their entire family tree from their grandparents’ parents to their cousins’ families and their cousins families’ families. If you date a Filipina, know beforehand that her immediate family is not her only family. She will introduce you to her entire clan and you have to be prepared for that because that’s going to be at least 20 people eyeing and evaluating you. But don’t worry, you can earn their trust and respect simply by being kind and polite. Once you’ve done that, you will be spoiled by her entire clan and they will treat you like family as well.


4. Educated and fluent in English

Generally, Filipinos have high regard for education and they really do everything to send their children to school because to them, it’s the most important. So don’t be surprised if your Filipina girlfriend can understand you perfectly well and can answer you in straight English. One of the perks of dating a Filipina is not having to worry about learning another language. You can learn her language in the long run but while you’re still getting to know each other, don’t bother to. She will understand you just fine.


5. Polite and good-mannered

You probably already noticed that Filipinas are born and raised polite and good-mannered. So if you date a Filipina, make sure you know how to use the words “po” and “opo” especially when talking to her parents and her elder relatives. Believe me, this is a sure way to earn their favor.


6. Simple



Another perk of dating a Filipina is that you don’t have to spend millions, not even thousands, to make her happy. They delight in simple things. Buy her something from Jollibee and she will thank you endlessly. Wait for her to get comfortable with you and she will surely take you to Divisoria. Watch her haggle like a pro and you will come home with a nice polo, pants, and a pair of shoes at the price of $20. You will even have enough change to pay for your fare home.


7. Cheerful and humorous



When you’re down and feeling blue, she can cheer you up in no time. Filipinas are renowned for their good sense of humor and their cheerfulness which is believed to be contagious. When they start laughing, even at the most nonsensical things, you will find yourself laughing too. That’s how powerful they are.


8. Understanding and patient

You can never ask for a more understanding girlfriend than a Filipina girlfriend. They are gold when it comes to patience. They will forgive you over and over as long as love is present. But don’t push your luck. They may be the calmest and most patient women in the planet, but they can turn into the fiercest and most vicious animal you can think of if you provoke them, especially cheat on them.


9. Religious

Filipinas have a strong faith in God. So know that when you date one, Sunday is Church Day. You can only go to dates on Sundays after you’ve gone to the church and attended mass together. Don’t ever question her beliefs or she’ll be your ex-girlfriend real quick. Remember that.


10. Natural homemakers

Filipinas are perfect wives. Aside from the fact that they are very reliable when it comes to household chores, they will do everything for their family. They are raised acknowledging the importance of a complete family, so they definitely know how to build one. If you’re looking to build a home in your family, marry a Filipina and you won’t be disappointed.


11. Puts family first before everything else

Nothing, even money, is more important to a Filipina than her family. If you are used to being independent, so are they, but they tend to be clingier to their siblings, and especially to their parents even after marriage. Don’t take this the wrong way, it’s just because they love their family so much to the point that it’s hard for them to part.


12. Can engage in long and smart conversations

Date a Filipina and you won’t just be having a girlfriend, you will also have a best friend to share all your insights with late at night. You can talk to her about your political beliefs, your thoughts about Trump, and even your most embarrassing childhood days and she won’t get bored.


13. Treats age as just a number



Most importantly, to Filipinas, love is love. To them, as long as you love a person, then age is just a number. Because they believe that there is no right age and time to fall in love. Instead, love comes unexpectedly in different forms. So don’t worry if you don’t consider yourself young anymore but still want to date a Filipina. Just love them unconditionally and they will reciprocate it.


There are plenty of other reasons why you should date a Filipina, but these 13 should be enough to convince you that they’re worth a shot. Date one, and the next time you read this article, you will be convinced that it’s the best decision you’ve made in your entire life.
