Meet A Filipina For Marriage - How To Do It

If you’re asking yourself how to meet a Filipina for marriage, you’ve come to the right place. In this post, we will show you what other men (from different parts of the United States, Canada and Europe) did and - are still doing - in order to find their own Filipino love.

But first, here’s a bit of history. Up until the 1990’s, there were marriage brokers that sought to introduce Filipino women to foreign men. However, things changed after the Philippine government enacted the Anti-Mail Order Bride law. Men who illegally find their wives through marriage brokers are charged with human trafficking.

So, right now, a man who wants to marry a Filipino woman is basically alone. However, there are Filipino dating sites that cater specifically to men who want to marry Filipino women. 

So, how are other men doing it?

Starbucks Cebu - one place you can meet Filipino women 

1.       Find Filipino women online 

This is something fairly easy because there are many Filipino women who are looking for men online too. There are several ways that you can meet them halfway. You can do it by posting on Manila Craigslist or signing up with a  Philippine dating website.

The only problem with Manila Craigslist is that majority of your responses will come from women in the Metro Manila area, as well as scammers and spammers. Don’t bother posting on Cebu Craigslist – most women from Cebu and other parts of the Philippines do not use Craigslist.

Your best bet is really to sign up with a Philippine dating website like Cherry Blossoms.

2.       Talk with several Filipino women at the same time

Someone once said that online dating is basically “contact and numbers” game, meaning that your success largely depends on the number of Filipino women you contact. So, do not stop contacting Filipino women until you’re regularly talking to at least three women at the same time. However, please make it clear with each woman that you are NOT in a relationship and that you will need to meet before making a commitment.

In order to avoid any logistical nightmare, make sure the women come from the same city or province.

3.       Travel to the Philippines

Take a leave for a week or two and arrange to meet the Filipino women you’ve been talking to. The safest places to do it are hotel lobbies, coffee shops (there’s Starbucks and Coffee Bean Tea and Leaf). Do NOT do it at a beach resort, unless if you’re planning to make her your girlfriend.

Meet the women one-by-one. During your date, ask a lot of questions but NEVER make her feel like she’s in a job interview by talking about the others. Filipino women are the jealous type, and while they’re aware that they’re not the only ones, they don’t want that fact to be rubbed in their faces.

So, there you have it. Now that you know how other men did it, it’s time for you to do it yourself.
