🥳Congratulations, I really enjoy hearing a successful turnaround story, you hit the nail on the head regarding taking responsibility for changing your life... too many of us Men put up with an unhappy lifestyle, treated poorly by the people in our lives & certainly by our family whom we Love & have given our all to...I wish you both every success in growing your fabulous channel, which for me, has the best content & reliable informative information to those seeking a Philippines Lifestyle ... Cheers
@@FlyMeToThePhilippinesHi Rob, I just saw the latest "Filipina Pea" video talking about the new law stating that Filipinos/Filipinas are financially responsible for their parents' and siblings' dispensable items, including education. That may have some effect on Ex-Pat husbands' money as well. This COULD cause a stampede out of the P.I., or at least cause a lot of Ex-Pats to reconsider the P.I. as a preferred option for retirement.
@xavierkoolat6926 ... Make sure you get a prenup. Take time to think through your life and a marriage as it pertains to the money you bring into a relationship. Also, while working on a prenup with a very good lawyer, redraw your will and/or trust if you want money to go to anyone in your native country. That episode by Pea was to bring awareness of the laws, but Gracie explained several approaches with a prenup ... and there are many other options. American men should understand the consequences of divorce in the States, yet the Philippines.
If you go to any café in America, especially in the country towns early in the morning, there’s only old single men there. So very sad and unfortunate that there are literally no women in the areas and those that are here. Don’t know how to think like a femininewoman
My Filipina is in the US with me now. We will build our new home on the 20 acres we bought last year in the Philippines. She has worked since 35 days after she arrived in the US. We have saved all of my money and live on her money. My wife is 32 years younger. She had never been on a date, never been kissed, would never hold hands with a man and was obviously a virgin. She said I preserve myself for my husband. So I got an unused, unbelievably awesome beautiful wife that absolutely adores me. The greatest improvement in my life. We have been married 5 years now.
My deepest admiration, respect, and COMPLETE JEALOUSY of your successful accomplishments. I'm in my mid-80s, retired, and living alone in the USA. How I wish I had discovered the P.I. decades ago. If I had, I'd now be there living the life of a king and devoted husband to a wonderful province P.I. young woman. Kudos, sir.
@@xavierkoolat6926 thank you for those kind words sir, I do wish you all of the best. My dad is 83 and he is moving to the Philippines with me. Fortunately, he gets around like a 60-year-old guy.
Thanks for the overview, Rob. As we both know, relationships between a man and a woman are always imperfect and require compromise, good calm communication, and unconditional love. I am so happy for you and Chrissy and wish you the very best.❤
Met my wife in 2005 by chance while traveling with Philippine friends. Not on line. Wasn't really looking for a wife, 18 years later,,, she now has 4 years to go for retirement from Sherriff's Dept, we bought a 3600 sq meter lot on beach, 135ft of beach, near Tandag City. Surigao del Sur, built a one if a kind lookout tower that we stay in on vacation till she retires and we build a house. She was a 31 year old virgin and I was 55 when we met by chance. Going strong. You need to marry that beautiful little women and give her son a dad.
For me personally... this is in the top three of your best videos to date. Your honest candor is refreshing and welcome. Your story provides hope and inspiration.
I’ll be there in August I’d love to meet a Filipina while I’m there so I can do what you have done. No luck for me on the dating sites. Your wife might have friends or can you suggest a place to go to meet the girls? Is there a company that arranges meetings? Any help is appreciated
Your family is typical American family. They didn’t ask if you live your happiest life… they start judging and imposing their dogma as they know how need to live your life. I’m happy you got away from these toxic folks. I’m happy you pulled her out of poverty and helping her child grow. You are a hero. You deserve it all.
Excellent content as always. You and Chrissy found your niche. You are a lovely couple and I think you both hit the 'happiness" jackpot. Kudos to you both!!!
Hi Rob, I’m absolutely enamored with your story. I can’t get enough of you and Chrissy talking about your fairy tale come true. I would love to follow in your footsteps to achieve the same life as I’ve been a lonely divorced single the last 4 years invisible here in America at the age of 65
I have followed you guys from the beginning and the thing that has impressed me about your channel the most has been your determination to keep trying new ideas searching for your youtube niche working out the kinks along the way. From info vids, to comedy, to dating, travel, to interviewing each other, they are all enjoyable and your style is very original and creative. I'm surprised you don't have at least 50k subs by now. Congratulations on your engagement. You really are a very lucky man. Chrissy is a beautiful and thoughtful filipina. I especially like the interviews with her. Her answers are never rehearsed and always thoughtful and introspective. Keep on keepin on, Rob and Chrissy!
Mark, thanks for your support. That’s one of the nicest comments we’ve ever read. We really appreciate your analysis and sharing your take on our channel. Thank you so much.
Congratulations on an incredible life change. Hope to head there in the next few months to meet my dream girl. Your story is exactly what Western women don’t want to hear. Older man, younger woman, happy. Love your content.
What a great story and transformation Rob. I'll be sure to check out your 90day expat plan. Chrissy is indeed a very attractive and certainly educated woman and it sounds to me like it was meant to be. Perhaps overtime your family back home will come to realize its your life and if they love you they will want what makes you happy. Just give it time. The house you have now is really quite special. I think someone upstairs is blessing you.
I'm 30 years younger than my husband. We own houses in both countries and lived back and forth as the kids grew up. Three of us are dual citizens. For education and jobs, the USA is by far the better place for kids. For finding wives, duh. The Philippines. With the kids on scholarships to college now and my husband retired, I started working. It was amazing how easy it was to get the job I wanted, how fast I was promoted, and how much I am making! We are investing more than ever before. So we are not in a hurry to leave, we have a homestead in remote rural Alaska. A beautiful place to have a family. The boys have seen girls in both countries and have no intentions of getting mixed up with American girls.
Hi Rob, happy I found your channel. Similar situation here as you have previously had. I've definitely had my share of disappointments looking for the right woman to share my life with. After searching for a year, I believe I have found her (fingers crossed). Unfortunately, I cannot retire for two more years, so we will have to endure the LDR thing, but I will visit her in December to confirm our commitment to each other. I also will permanently relocate from the states to that approximate area. I can only hope that I have 1/2 of the success you have experienced. I will actually be in Cagayan in December and will continue to follow you and stay in touch. I would be happy to meet you and invite you both to dinner when there. Until then, keep them coming.
Hey Rob- Good video. Met my Filipina in Cebu City 2+ years ago we are at the end of the K1 process, interview scheduled in 10 days. I am 63 and she is 41. I came from a miserable marriage in the west to life with a beautiful, well educated and amazing Filipina. Simply amazing! Best Wishes- David
After this Video I was watch your first Video again and I only can advice it to all who may not believe Rob how his life changed for the better. Its not only you look healthier and more happy, your complete Body language changed. Thanks for beeing us a part of your life!!
My family all thought I was having a mid life crisis when I told them about meeting my wife. Like your family, they didn't want to hear about it. Didn't hear much positive, and some of my family and friends just stopped talking to me. We're still together today, we've been married 5+ years. You have to ignore the negative and focus on the positive.
So happy for you Rob and I am glad things worked out the way it did. I wish you and Crissy continued success and happiness. I am the same age as you and am hoping to replicate the lifestyle you are enjoying. God bless.
Recently found your TH-cam and just love it. I also got incredibly lucky and found my wife (she was a waitress at Marco Polo hotel in Cebu. We dated for a year and she arrived in DC the end of 2020. Married December 2020 and have just been so happy so I’m always so happy when I see others find that true Filipina with the heart of the Philippines. Love you guys. Keep up the great work
Great to see and hear. I have a girlfriend i met online (in Quezon Province) - living like Chrissy did, in difficult circumstances with her family. we've not physically met yet (it's been 6 mos?).. i have occasionally supported her, but like you said about Chrissy, she has never asked for anything. it's hard for her to come here to visit (i'm in London). and it's hard to know exactly the best plan of action. doing what you did seems like the best way. i have to say, the humility and gratitude of the filipina personality is a beautiful thing.. thank you for your channel.
Another wonderful story Rob. The important thing for both of us was finding a life partner. Not only someone to be with, but someone who helps us to be our best selves and we do do the same for them. So many folks on this site comment on Chrissy's beauty and she is indeed a beautiful woman, but it's all of the rest of her qualities that make you such good partners, she is smart, sweet, caring, fun, and hard-working. I am excited for you both that with her son coming to live with you soon, the picture will be complete. Add in the wedding and it's even better. I remember having dinner at a nice restaurant on my first or second trip to be with Mylene. There were three older grizzled men (Yep, like me, but a bit older) and three pretty young Filipinas. It was almost painful to watch as the men only talked with each other and the women did the same. Pity the poor woman between two of the men who looked miserable and said not a word during the entire meal. I can't imagine them having the rich life you and Chrissy or Mylene and I share. To men looking to find what Rob and I have- Finding someone to share your life, all of your life with should be the goal. Don't be superficial and only select a woman by her looks. To live your best life you need more than a pretty hood ornament. Can you really have deep conversations, can you find some common interests? Are you willing to try new things that she likes and for her to do the same? Do you like her family, will she like yours? That was a big one for me because Mylene came here to live here in California with me. At first, my adult and teenage kids were apprehensive that Dear Old Dad was just looking to find some sexy young woman from an exotic place. It took a couple of years, but Mylene won them over because she is such a warm, loving, and hard-working woman...and she cared about them. I don't think they view her as a stepmom so much as someone they care about and can talk to and laugh with.
WOW. Thanks, Paul, for your beautifully expressed feelings, thinking, observations, conclusions, and personal history all combining to cause me to reconsider my own situation. (I'm 83.) Nearly all the other men making videos and/or Comment(ing) and/or Reply(ing) to such videos always emphasize the visual aspect of a possible relationship that they say they want. "She" should be slim, pretty, etc., etc. Your Comment includes other, MORE important qualities (such as "smart, sweet, caring, fun, and hard-working") that REALLY make or break any relationship after the first 8 months to a year of most any relationship. Because I'm "old," I'd be insane to want a relationship with a 20-year-old woman. But, with a loving, caring, more mature woman, I might have a chance. While I'm in good health, "time's a-wastin'," (as an old cartoon character "Snuffy Smith" used to say), and I'm re-considering moving to the P.I. Beautiful would include someone with a heart shining brighter than the warmest smile. So, the way I see it, if I can offer something of value to a future relationship, whether it be a financial advantage, wisdom, a solid rock to anchor on, or even just a partner for daily activities and camaraderie, there just might be a place for me in the P.I. Thanks for your feedback on Rob's great videos.
@@xavierkoolat6926 Xavier I appreciate your thoughtful comments and we met socially a couple this week- the man was 81 and has been here a year. He seemed content and happy
@@xavierkoolat6926 There are many lovely smart and beautiful Filipinas in their late 30s, 40s, and 50s who might be a wonderful match. I was 55 and my sweetie was 37 when we met. nIne years have passed and I'm still crazy about her (And she about me, at least most of the time 🙂) . With whatever qualities you seek, be discerning. Have deep conversations. Make sure she's real. Good luck to you whatever you decide.
Excellent video Rob! Yes we all want to meet our own version of Chrissy! I’m excited for your September wedding! I hope to be getting married this year with an online wedding since I want to avoid the paperwork hassle with my 3 divorces. My 2 weeks went very well with my Filipina prospect. Day 4 I got shortness of breath, long story short I waited to go to the ER when I got back on Tuesday, doctors thought it might be an embolism lucky it was just bacterial pneumonia! Those first 2 days I stayed in a cheap hotel in Cebu my mistake. I really did not feel sick though probably since I’m on high levels of vitamin D. She really is a sweetheart, we worked through a lot of issues. Time will tell.
Dealing with disapproving kids can be a real issue which only time will correct. You have to do what is best for you. Sounds like you have it figured out though! Hope to see you there one day.
By the way, good for Chrissy as well. You seem to be a decent guy. So who’s the prize here 🤔Ha! You catch my drift. I really appreciate how you don’t mince words or come across as “too politically correct” when you describe (IMPORTANTLY … in a non-judgmental way) the three types of travelers in the previous (first) video I came across yesterday. I’ll spread the word about your podcast. I hope you prosper.
It’s a wonderful story and I was lucky like you in a different way my wife looks like Chrissy I was so lucky to I will write you in a email my story too
FlyMeToThePhilippines Rob, Chrissy what strikes me the most is neither of you are unhappy now. Together, being together you both have happiness on every important aspect of your life. I see joy on your faces and I can tell a difference in attitudes from the very 1st video until now. You both are more open showing your real personality, esp Chrissy. I look forward to seeing the wedding video. Also what do you consult about? Is it finances and figuring out what kind of business that can be done as one aspect?
It's a joy to watch your videos, really uplifting. I just discovered your channel today and I keep delaying my motorcycle ride because I just want to watch one more. As with anything worth doing there will be some challenges but you found a gal who as far as I can tell rolls with the punches and has your back, and vice versa. Your combined stories are really inspirational.
I’m happy that things are going so well for both of you. I agree that you are blessed. I know there are haters out there too but don’t justify them with your energy. They either don’t understand or are jealous. Either way keep moving forward with positivity and enjoy your blessed life!
I'm starting to go through the same thing I met her wonderful young Filipina 33 years age Diffence . But she always lets me know what's going on she never keeps me in the dark she asks how I am I've already spoken to her family and her twice in video chats. Sometimes the communications not completely perfect but I already adore this woman. The problem is financial wise it's going to take me a lot longer to get to the Philippines than a month try more like six. But everything you say in this video sounds so familiar
Rob you are the luckiest guy out there i have to say. I did have a question how did Chrissy like the idea of not getting married for a year. I know you might of covered it in one of your videos but I have just started watching them. I am learning a lot before I make my journey. I think the idea of wanting a year could be a really good idea for you and others to make sure you are not getting scammed. I have seen or heard of so many stories of women comming over and as soon as they get there citizenship it is out the door they go. I do understand that it may only be a few but that is all it takes to scare people away but your story is so heart warming for all the guys out there to find happiness again. I am sorry about the family issues. I will try to avoid them but if it makes YOU happy that is all that counts. I will get back to my watching videos of the two of you and learn as much as I can. I do not plane on moving there but I definitely want to be happy again. Thank you STAY HAPPY!!!!
Congratulations! I am living a similar experience - married now 14 years - living in Pangasinan with a house in Cainta - Nimfa means the world to me! Her family is very supportive and the absolute best. I will let you know when we are close to cdo. Again - Congratulations!
Dear Rob - what a journey, I wish you both the best in the future and if you continue to treat each other with respect it will surely last for the rest of your life. Best regards from Denmark
Very interesting video. Im verry happy for the both of you. I also hope to find someone wonderful in se asia when i retire next year. Videos like yours inspire me to look for my next adventure in life. For guys like me that arent drinkers/partiers its very difficult to meet people in the west.
Great video Rob, What a fantastic success story for both of you. I hope your family back home see's how happy you are and support you both. Can't wait to visit the Philippines this coming October, ticket in pocket 😉. Cheers
Enjoyed your back story , i myself am a 8 year expat living my best life here in the ph. Same type of story. Married and kids with my dream girl Isnt life aweso e?
That is true, they don’t ask money directly, it’s done in a different way, such as, my phone doesn’t work all the time and it dies time to time, I am hungry and have no money to buy food, my wisdom teeth hurt so much, I can’t sleep at night.
Good story. Your a lucky man cherish these moments There’s someone out there for everyone just have to keep on looking can’t give up. Positive mental attitude will conquer anything. 😊
Hi Rob! I’ve watched you since your beginnings. You’ve impacted my life greatly (I don’t leave too many comments, although I do watch the majority of yours and Chrissy’s videos! Thank you!! Very happy for you both! Peace ☮️
Michael, thanks for watching our videos and taking the time to comment. It was really a pleasure to read your remarks. Thank you so much for your support.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I enjoyed the Philippines 2017, 18 & 2020 for 3 months each year. Locked out philippine by COVID; I discovered Medellin, Colombia. I’m age 80 and was in 2021 introduced to my two svelte fit girlfriends ages 33 & 40 in Medellin (MDE). I visit MDE for 8 months each year and separately date one or the other , exploring Colombia , sharing joy, love and happiness. Haven’t yet felt ‘tampo’ jealousy silence periods.
🥳Congratulations, I really enjoy hearing a successful turnaround story, you hit the nail on the head regarding taking responsibility for changing your life... too many of us Men put up with an unhappy lifestyle, treated poorly by the people in our lives & certainly by our family whom we Love & have given our all to...I wish you both every success in growing your fabulous channel, which for me, has the best content & reliable informative information to those seeking a Philippines Lifestyle ...

I have a girlfriend i met online (in Quezon Province) - living like Chrissy did, in difficult circumstances with her family. we've not physically met yet (it's been 6 mos?).. i have occasionally supported her, but like you said about Chrissy, she has never asked for anything. it's hard for her to come here to visit (i'm in London). and it's hard to know exactly the best plan of action. doing what you did seems like the best way. i have to say, the humility and gratitude of the filipina personality is a beautiful thing.. thank you for your channel.
❤️🙏👍
I’m married to a Filipina and it’s the best decision I ever made. Keep up the great work on your videos.
Jonathan Thank you! Will do!
@@jonathanr971 keep your eyes open I promise you ain’t it ain’t just because of you, buddy

Glad you liked it!Erin
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines hopefully we will meet soon. 2 guys from Scottsdale. Looking forward to it.

I am happy for you brother!

Another wonderful story Rob. The important thing for both of us was finding a life partner. Not only someone to be with, but someone who helps us to be our best selves and we do do the same for them. So many folks on this site comment on Chrissy's beauty and she is indeed a beautiful woman, but it's all of the rest of her qualities that make you such good partners, she is smart, sweet, caring, fun, and hard-working. I am excited for you both that with her son coming to live with you soon, the picture will be complete. Add in the wedding and it's even better.
I remember having dinner at a nice restaurant on my first or second trip to be with Mylene. There were three older grizzled men (Yep, like me, but a bit older) and three pretty young Filipinas. It was almost painful to watch as the men only talked with each other and the women did the same. Pity the poor woman between two of the men who looked miserable and said not a word during the entire meal. I can't imagine them having the rich life you and Chrissy or Mylene and I share.
To men looking to find what Rob and I have- Finding someone to share your life, all of your life with should be the goal. Don't be superficial and only select a woman by her looks. To live your best life you need more than a pretty hood ornament. Can you really have deep conversations, can you find some common interests? Are you willing to try new things that she likes and for her to do the same? Do you like her family, will she like yours? That was a big one for me because Mylene came here to live here in California with me. At first, my adult and teenage kids were apprehensive that Dear Old Dad was just looking to find some sexy young woman from an exotic place. It took a couple of years, but Mylene won them over because she is such a warm, loving, and hard-working woman...and she cared about them. I don't think they view her as a stepmom so much as someone they care about and can talk to and laugh with.
Naturally another well written comment with a wealth of experience and knowledge brought to bear. Thank you so much for sharing.
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Yes, but if only I was monetarily wealthy!!!
WOW.
Thanks, Paul, for your beautifully expressed feelings, thinking, observations, conclusions, and personal history all combining to cause me to reconsider my own situation. (I'm 83.)
Nearly all the other men making videos and/or Comment(ing) and/or Reply(ing) to such videos always emphasize the visual aspect of a possible relationship that they say they want. "She" should be slim, pretty, etc., etc.
Your Comment includes other, MORE important qualities (such as "smart, sweet, caring, fun, and hard-working") that REALLY make or break any relationship after the first 8 months to a year of most any relationship.
Because I'm "old," I'd be insane to want a relationship with a 20-year-old woman. But, with a loving, caring, more mature woman, I might have a chance.
While I'm in good health, "time's a-wastin'," (as an old cartoon character "Snuffy Smith" used to say), and I'm re-considering moving to the P.I.
Beautiful would include someone with a heart shining brighter than the warmest smile. So, the way I see it, if I can offer something of value to a future relationship, whether it be a financial advantage, wisdom, a solid rock to anchor on, or even just a partner for daily activities and camaraderie, there just might be a place for me in the P.I.
Thanks for your feedback on Rob's great videos.
@@xavierkoolat6926 Xavier I appreciate your thoughtful comments and we met socially a couple this week- the man was 81 and has been here a year. He seemed content and happy
@@xavierkoolat6926 There are many lovely smart and beautiful Filipinas in their late 30s, 40s, and 50s who might be a wonderful match. I was 55 and my sweetie was 37 when we met. nIne years have passed and I'm still crazy about her (And she about me, at least most of the time 🙂) . With whatever qualities you seek, be discerning. Have deep conversations. Make sure she's real. Good luck to you whatever you decide.
Excellent video Rob! Yes we all want to meet our own version of Chrissy! I’m excited for your September wedding! I hope to be getting married this year with an online wedding since I want to avoid the paperwork hassle with my 3 divorces. My 2 weeks went very well with my Filipina prospect. Day 4 I got shortness of breath, long story short I waited to go to the ER when I got back on Tuesday, doctors thought it might be an embolism lucky it was just bacterial pneumonia! Those first 2 days I stayed in a cheap hotel in Cebu my mistake. I really did not feel sick though probably since I’m on high levels of vitamin D. She really is a sweetheart, we worked through a lot of issues. Time will tell.
Well, glad it worked out. Thanks for sharing that.
Dealing with disapproving kids can be a real issue which only time will correct. You have to do what is best for you. Sounds like you have it figured out though! Hope to see you there one day.
Thanks Ken for watching the video and taking the time to share a note
Thanks for sharing Rob and congratulations. We all deserve the opportunity to be happy, enjoy!
Delta thanks for your support and for taking the time to comment. We really appreciate the positive feedback.
Congratulation for your Happy life here in the Philippines ...Enjoy Godbless
Thank you so much 😀
Good for you, Rob.
Thanks, Christopher
By the way, good for Chrissy as well. You seem to be a decent guy. So who’s the prize here 🤔Ha! You catch my drift.
I really appreciate how you don’t mince words or come across as “too politically correct” when you describe (IMPORTANTLY … in a non-judgmental way) the three types of travelers in the previous (first) video I came across yesterday.
I’ll spread the word about your podcast. I hope you prosper.
It’s a wonderful story and I was lucky like you in a different way my wife looks like Chrissy I was so lucky to I will write you in a email my story too
Thanks
dude, ROCK ON TOTALLY !
👍
FlyMeToThePhilippines Rob, Chrissy what strikes me the most is neither of you are unhappy now. Together, being together you both have happiness on every important aspect of your life. I see joy on your faces and I can tell a difference in attitudes from the very 1st video until now. You both are more open showing your real personality, esp Chrissy. I look forward to seeing the wedding video. Also what do you consult about? Is it finances and figuring out what kind of business that can be done as one aspect?
Thanks Tom. My experience is in marketing sales and entrepreneurship
It's a joy to watch your videos, really uplifting. I just discovered your channel today and I keep delaying my motorcycle ride because I just want to watch one more. As with anything worth doing there will be some challenges but you found a gal who as far as I can tell rolls with the punches and has your back, and vice versa. Your combined stories are really inspirational.
Thanks Stephen. Welcome aboard
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Thank you!
Hello from Goodyear, Arizona. Good content and great delivery on your videos. Great couple.
Hey, thanks! Dickey
Great story, I'm happy for you guys.
Tim, it’s really nice to hear your comment. Thank you.
I’m happy that things are going so well for both of you. I agree that you are blessed. I know there are haters out there too but don’t justify them with your energy. They either don’t understand or are jealous. Either way keep moving forward with positivity and enjoy your blessed life!
Thank you so much Chris
good video :D
Glad you liked it
This is the kind of place where I want to grow old and start my family
Thanks for watching our videos and for providing your comment
I'm starting to go through the same thing I met her wonderful young Filipina 33 years age Diffence . But she always lets me know what's going on she never keeps me in the dark she asks how I am I've already spoken to her family and her twice in video chats. Sometimes the communications not completely perfect but I already adore this woman. The problem is financial wise it's going to take me a lot longer to get to the Philippines than a month try more like six. But everything you say in this video sounds so familiar
Glad to hear. Hope you meet her soon.
Get there as soon as you can! Book your tickets now and show them to her!
Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Rob you are the luckiest guy out there i have to say. I did have a question how did Chrissy like the idea of not getting married for a year. I know you might of covered it in one of your videos but I have just started watching them. I am learning a lot before I make my journey. I think the idea of wanting a year could be a really good idea for you and others to make sure you are not getting scammed. I have seen or heard of so many stories of women comming over and as soon as they get there citizenship it is out the door they go. I do understand that it may only be a few but that is all it takes to scare people away but your story is so heart warming for all the guys out there to find happiness again. I am sorry about the family issues. I will try to avoid them but if it makes YOU happy that is all that counts. I will get back to my watching videos of the two of you and learn as much as I can. I do not plane on moving there but I definitely want to be happy again. Thank you STAY HAPPY!!!!
Robert Chrissy has a good head on her shoulders and I think deep down she thought it was a good idea to wait a year before getting married also
Congratulations Robb! I’m very proud of you. I know from personal experience how much of an effort it is. Your efforts with the channel help many.
Koufax Thank you so much!
Great video so happy for you's both, it's a win all round.
Thanks so much Dave
pretty quick change,hope it works out for you,dont worry about youtube,you obviously dont need the money,just enjoy yourself.
🙏
Congratulations! I am living a similar experience - married now 14 years - living in Pangasinan with a house in Cainta - Nimfa means the world to me! Her family is very supportive and the absolute best. I will let you know when we are close to cdo. Again - Congratulations!
Awesome to hear. Thanks for sharing.
Dear Rob - what a journey, I wish you both the best in the future and if you continue to treat each other with respect it will surely last for the rest of your life. Best regards from Denmark
Thanks for your support Bent
This is a great video, and I absolutely love your channel!
Scott, thank you so much what fabulous feedback
New sub. Is there a smog/burning season there? Thanks
Not that I know of. Thanks for the sub.
Congratulations on your life transformation. Glad that Chrissy and you are doing so well. Like your honesty and frankness.
DR Thank you so much!
Thanks for the great description of your new life!
Thanks Doc for the feedback
Very interesting video. Im verry happy for the both of you. I also hope to find someone wonderful in se asia when i retire next year. Videos like yours inspire me to look for my next adventure in life. For guys like me that arent drinkers/partiers its very difficult to meet people in the west.
Matt I hope you are truly inspired and achieve your goals
Outstanding. Thanks for sharing some of your truths and experiences based on your time to date in the Philippines and CDO. 🙂
Our pleasure!
Wonderful video and am glad you have been able to successfully navigate the age difference and make it work for your benefit.
Thank you Vance
Great video Rob,
What a fantastic success story for both of you. I hope your family back home see's how happy you are and support you both.
Can't wait to visit the Philippines this coming October, ticket in pocket 😉. Cheers

Nice video mate
First time I’ve come across your channel but I’ve been living I the Philippines for a few years.
Keep up the good work.
Welcome aboard Chris
Congrats to both of you!!!!
🙏
That is true, they don’t ask money directly, it’s done in a different way, such as, my phone doesn’t work all the time and it dies time to time, I am hungry and have no money to buy food, my wisdom teeth hurt so much, I can’t sleep at night.
You speak truth to power
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Thanks for the info. Very helpful.
I am so happy for you and Chrissy and the wonderful year you have had.
Thank you Eric 🙏
Great job! Congratulations to you both! I'm here now, in GenSan, trying to live my version of the dream!

Good story. Your a lucky man cherish these moments There’s someone out there for everyone just have to keep on looking can’t give up. Positive mental attitude will conquer anything. 😊
ThanksDenis
Hi Rob! I’ve watched you since your beginnings. You’ve impacted my life greatly (I don’t leave too many comments, although I do watch the majority of yours and Chrissy’s videos!
Thank you!! Very happy for you both! Peace ☮️

Another well done and informative video!
Thanks Vanderbill
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I enjoyed the Philippines 2017, 18 & 2020 for 3 months each year. Locked out philippine by COVID; I discovered Medellin, Colombia. I’m age 80 and was in 2021 introduced to my two svelte fit girlfriends ages 33 & 40 in Medellin (MDE). I visit MDE for 8 months each year and separately date one or the other , exploring Colombia , sharing joy, love and happiness. Haven’t yet felt ‘tampo’ jealousy silence periods.
Thanks for sharing!
