Are Filipinas Open to Divorced Men?

The answer is yes.

I’ve met more than one divorced man who is now married to a Filipina. These guys often tell me they really appreciate the more traditional/conservative outlook of women in the Philippines.

Just remember there is no divorce in the Philippines, and marriage is taken very seriously here. You’ll need to be 100% honest and explain exactly why your first marriage didn’t work out. Filipinas tend to be very understanding, but please be honest.

RECOMMENDED: I recommend Christian Filipina for those who are serious about finding love in the Philippines.

What if she is separated? I’ve addressed this in a previous post:

Should I get involved with a Filipina who is Separated?

RECOMMENDED: REMITLY

Filipinas: The Age Discussion (Continued)

I’ve talked about the issue of age and Filipinas (women from the Philippines). I’ve explained that Filipinas are often more open to marrying an older man.

I will give you an example that might help.

Imagine Brad Pitt walked onto an American college campus. The girls would go crazy for him. They wouldn’t think “old”: they would think “rich, famous, and gorgeous” (maybe not in that order).

I think this is how Filipinas look at American men. They are attracted to the way Caucasians look, and they know Western men could provide them with a high standard of living.

Don’t let this go to your head–I am not saying you look like Brad Pitt to them. I’m saying you may have qualities that appeal to them that they would prioritize over age.

Marrying a Woman from the Philippines: More Thoughts on Money and Sharing

I heard this line from a comedian:

“I’m not going to get married–I’m just going to find a woman I don’t like and buy her a house.”

He was referring to the common experience men have in a divorce settlement.

I’ve previously mentioned the filipino culture when it comes to money and sharing–you’ll have to share some of your money with her family. But there’s something I’ve thought about:

RECOMMENDED: I recommend Christian Filipina for those who are serious about finding love in the Philippines.

Western men who marry Filipinas have a lower divorce rate than those who marry Westerners. Marriages to women from the Philippines have about an 80% success rate, compared to the 50% divorce rate among Americans. So, even though you’ll have to share more of your money, you’re still less likely to have someone divorce you and take half of your stuff. That’s a better deal as far as I’m concerned.
