I am from the USA, and men and woman here are totally different as far as looking for friendship, companionship, relationships! Here in the USA we seem to be totally looking for a woman or a man, judged on age and looks! Visual is very important to us Americans! I have noticed that woman in Asia, especially from the Philippines seem to look at age as just a number, and look beyond the surface, and look for a person for their inner self as well! Just different cultures I guess!...what do you think, am I right?

Isn't that where a lot of "mail-order brides" come from?
I'm sure they are not as picky about a LOT of things....those women that just want to move to the US and get their green card, eh?

So that explains why so many older senior men go to the Philippines seeking a girlfriend.....but as for these girls looking "beyond the surface" perhaps they are seeking a green card.....

As one o' them thur red blooded 'Mericans...

Yeah... I really haven't spent much time
analyzing people's actions, that harm no one.

People from poor(er) countries usually look for a better life and more money and as such an older guy can be interesting as they usually already have gathered quite a lot of that. And they're easily happy as for their ego it's great to have gotten themselves a younger wife.
So them looking for the inner being of someone... I doubt that. They're after the inner parts of your wallet.

As for looking at the outside only... aren't you doing exactly that if you're after basically buying a younger wife?

To each his own.

I say, speak for yourself and not for everyone who lives in the USA.

Yup.
What she says.

People online can and will tell you anything you want to hear.
On the other hand, there are societies that are more polite
than others and I suspect Asian influences there..on the
positive end.

pbelfi, thank you for sharing your observations.

Interesting replies from everyone. I'm from the Philippines so thank you.

I'll keep an eye on this thread.

People are different, with different wants and desires in every form in every country, from my observances. People just go about it differently. Some have to because of customs, religions, and expectations, and can't be as open as other places.

You look like and astronaut.

darkowl, who look like an astronaut?

no I won't

Oh my gosh! you gotta be freezing up there! I just looked at your profile to see what part of the Philippines you're from. I was going to send you a message, but I'm too old.

I said I was from the Philippines, but I didn't say I live there.
Well, darkowl, if you were a hundred years old, then I'm the queen of england.

well........................ I know I look 180, but I can't help that. heck, who am I kidding, I had to stand on the sun to wait for the earth to cool. It took forever to wait for the dinosaurs to get here.... and to this day, they've only discovered a few of them. some were quite spectacular... you can pet the really big ones, but don't pet the small ones!

very imaginative and good advice about dinosaurs.

Why thank you! I'm honored you would say that... you'd be the most amazing queen England could ever have.

You're welcome.. and yes I probably would

goodnight
