Very informative thx for this video, many in the west despise FB I guess I'll be a suspicious person for not having it, the mental gymnastics behind this makes a good case for meeting people the "old way".
I was thinking the same. Facebook 🤷🏽♂️ Many in America are uninterested in Zuckerberg’s censorship and malfeasance. Plus there are a lot of people who I would not share information with. I think a PI would be helpful though. Dunno. I loved these Facebook tips. Just no way I’m getting into that regardless of value.
Wow. This was very informative. Thank you for those tips. I'm 56 years old and probably won't retire until I'm 67. But I know that I want to have a Filipino wife and I'm trying to get all the information that I'll need right now. I have already subscribed and I look forward to seeing more videos.
Thanks for sharing, It’s always better to get feet on the ground and take a very slow trip to get to know who they are. Even when your there in person you can be scammed and the women have many irons in the fire trying to get ahead in life. You can find the perfect Filipina but it takes time & due diligence to find the one that’s right for compatibility and for long term relationship.
I plan on coming in Oct. 2024 and will keep my emotions in control, and just be honest with the women I meet, I have to get to know everyone and get accustomed to the culture and find the right Filipina to align my self with to spend the rest of my life together. I’m not a butterfly but at the same time I know the risks of getting attached too soon, to the wrong woman and making that mistake I’ll regret later.
@@TruthFinder7839 it's possible you''ll keep your emotions under control...very possible. I'd suggest that once you're arrived here, taking it slow IS a good idea, but the plain fact of the matter is, once you're fully ensconced here, if some bargirl starts pressing her breasts against you, grabbing at your crotch, and maybe coming across as you're the funniest, most clever guy ever, the result and effect will be real. Believe me, if you use your first few months to play between 'good girls' and more transactional bargirls, you'll get some good erotic experience that will sorta make you more relaxed and confident, and more able to resist wiles of lovely ladies who might not have your best interests at heart. Hey--it's just an idea...still be very careful with the bargirl scene.
I think people might need to be reminded that "red flags" are not like red stop lights. They only mean something's needing investigating further. You might have to ask questions (ah, the art of learning to ask the "right" questions, where the wording can make all the difference). Like in football, a red flag marks only an error in the play; a lot of red flags mean a sloppy game. The game's not called, it's not over yet. Investigate, don't be lazy, and hold your reins. Most people play sloppy games of life -- until they realize that's why they're always losing. Then they start improving. So dive deeper and ask yourself, Is this what you want? Because, bottom line I think is, what you really want is someone who can be honest, that you can begin to build trust with. Love is built on trust, not the other way around. Trust is harder to find in life than love is. ...Thanks for another fine video back-&-forth essay.
Best way is to meet in person don't send money get to know that person you are interested in first that is part of the great journey and adventure of getting to know someone. Don't make any lifetime commitments right away. Time is your best friend when getting to know someone and there are plenty of nice people to meet out there. No hurry and no worries sometimes it's the journey and not the destination. Let your life adventures begin today. 🙂
First, congrats you two on finding a love connection. Second, thanks for sharing a very helpful video. This is really helpful for someone that’s really not into social media. Rob, would you recommend waiting until you have boots on ground to meet that special person, or would you use a dating site? Finally, Rob, I’m curious if you brought your dog with you and did you come for an extended visit before moving to Philippines?
I recommend taking a 90 day online 45 days before the airplane takes off to come for a 45 day visit minimum for boots on the ground. That way if you don’t find somebody first, you can still use the online tool while you’re in the country know my dog passed away, and I didn’t bring it with me to the Philippines.
I came for a week to the Philippines in February 2020 right before Covid shut it down and I went online and met Chrissy after having several failed attempts I talk about it quite a bit in the video, called my story or my journey
Thanks for the feedback. I’m sorry about your dog. It might be the one thing that would keep me from coming. I’m assuming it’s a pretty big hassle to bring an animal to the Philippines. Thanks again!
How to cut 90% of the scammers: within 3 minutes say *VERY* loud and clear that you'll not send 1 dollar until you meet her in person. On an unrelated topic: I am always very busy in my business... no way I reply within 10 minutes. Sometimes I don't have a second for 2 hours.
Thank you for the thorough and informative video. I have a similar experience or trying online dating with Filipinas over 5 years ago, and became disenchanted for many reasons. Fortunately, only out the money it cost to use the dating website. I am giving it another shot now, and these are all very good things to keep in mind. It's a different world in PI!
certainly meet a lot of money girls online, as soon as they ask they are no longer in the running for serious girl. No serious girl would ask, and just dismiss them. That why you have to chat with many different girls at once. you also have to go visit them. online alone doesn't work long.
No. Stop. Don't bother with anything online. If, If you are serious? Get ya azz on a plane and Go meet people while there. Anything else is just wasting Your time and hers. The first guy that gets there in person gets the girls Only instance doing anything online is ok? Is if you have already booked a trip. But 10 times out of 10 you will see and meet woman prettier than anyone you are talking to online. Just go.
Meeting a girl online before you go to the Philippines is like looking at a restaurant menu online and then sending money to the restaurant in the Philippines and telling them to prepare the meal for you and then just put it in the freezer and you will eat it when you arrive six months or a year later. Then when you arrive you are shocked and saddened to learn that although they did actually prepare the meal, they ate it instead of putting it away for you. Wake up! There is another restaurant on every corner and the food is much fresher!
Good advice. But what if you hate Facebook and have everything turned private, never accept friend requests, never message anyone, etc? I only have ten or so photos posted over the three years I've had my page. To me, FB is creepy AF and I won't feed the beast.
I Love this kind of " Bullshittery " Content. Great insight + Great & Fun Watching it. Eunique Point of view & how you portray it, GREAT I LOVE IT ! Salamat Po, Hope you are BOTH in good health & Doing well, Good~Look my friend`s!
I lived in the Philippines for over a year and I love it there. Meeting some of these women they will try to scam u to your face. And I'm like oh he'll nah!! Not me chic😂😂😂😂. Wrong foreigner😂😂😂
I have been seeing one for 6 months,her friends list is private since we started dating, but wasnt at first, I cannot look any deeper but I feel it is a scam
Another thing I noticed is this...say I send a text 8 hours ago. Then all the sudden she just responds but it shows the same time stamp as your original text. How does that happen?
Wen I am working i tell my girlfriend wot time i starts working and wot time i finishing work but I message and videos call her wen I have my break the only trouble with long distance relationship is there a 8 hours time difference i live in England
BTW just an fyi we went on daylight savings time here in the USA today so clocks went ahead 1 hour so we are 12 hours apart behind the Phillipines now instead of 13
I keep my profile locked down. It was not ill intentions, simply that’s how I have done it for years. My fiancés friend tried to friend me, I declined initially…Speaking to my fiancé first. I think she was trying to see if I would talk to another girl while talking to my now fiancé. I still keep my profile fairly secure, with not much available to the public, my fiancé has brought this up…I gave her access to see my friends list, that subsided a lot of concerns. Trust but verify, both sides have insecurities going into a LDR.
I locked down my page just to be safe. Recently I've been getting these odd emails from Facebook stating that I requested to change my password so obviously someone has been trying to mess with me. This has happened about six times since August.
Rob, Chrissy, Just watched your vlog and a few red flags for me..!!! I don't use facebook and tend to take people at face value rather than facebook. If people need to be deceitful then they are the ones with the problem, surely. I maybe trust too easily but rely more on 'gut feelings'. Everyone has a past and as long as its dealt with accordingly then what's the problem?. I try to look for positive affirmations rather than 'dumpster diving' to try and unearth past indiscretions. I think if you were suspicious then it is not the relationship for you. Also, no matter how beautiful your partner is you will not enjoy a relationship if you are constantly doubting her and having to live a covert life. Maybe I am old fashioned but .....
I agree that I rarely use Facebook. Messenger etc.. No what apps etc.. So I guess I would be sending red flags all over the place. When in truth I haven't even been on a date in 10+ years.
i agree with your assessment--yet one should STILL be able to discern red flags. I would, for instance, NEVER send money to someone before I'd actually...you know MET her Sorry.
So is there a reason not to meet someone at the Airport? I have heard of lots of people meeting successfully at the Airport. Is that so you don't have other choices if you find out there are better matches? I'm going to assume it's because some people ask for money in order to be able to meet you there and never show up? But in reality as long as they don't ask for money then it is a perfectly fine place to meet?
Oh well, if she was seeing someone, i guess she wouldn't asking how my brother is, or having a mass said for my parents, or telling me to cut my nails, or telling me to look after my brother when he had covid. or asking me why I took so long in replying, or where was I all day, or falling asleep when she chat me, when i tell her to go asleep.
Thanks for this. I was about to pull the trigger and put boots on the ground. Did the deeper Facebook search and found some pictures of her and another guy 4 accounts removed. Turns out she cheated on me and got pregnant from another guy. Trying to cancel the trip now.
So sorry to hear but glad you were able to make good use of the video. Thanks for your support and your comment my advice don’t cancel the ticket. You will find a Filipina here they’re everywhere.
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines I'll consider it. Not exactly in the frame of mind of wanting a woman in my life right now after yet another instance of the cheating that is so rampant here ... but, I'll give it some time and think about it. Thanks.
@@josiah5776 the thing is all the expats. I know here are happily involved with the Filipina many of them for 10 years so the ones who found someone special and moved here. They’re all in normal relationships and all the Filipina girlfriends and wives are sweet as can be, so it’s the other side of the Looking Glass instead of a bunch of scammers that have to filter through the men who made it to the other side of the semi permeable membrane. We’re all living these happy lives with wonderful women. Secret is to have patience. Don’t give up and get to the other side of the semi permeable membrane.
what do you think of a ldr over 2 years and the philipina has never done or said anything sexual with the western man , she tells him i dont do that online you have to wait until we meet in person , is that valid or is she just dragging the guy along cause he gives her an alowance every month of 100 dollars
Thanks for watching, not sure how to answer- I guess the therapist charges $150 an hour for 50 minutes these Filipinos will talk to you for two hours a day for $100 a month. It’s pretty good deal.
I am new to your channel, but every other reputable seeming vlogger on this subject says don’t even bother with online dating. Just wait till you get there. Get to know the Philippines a little bit and THEN start looking for your Filipina. To me, this really sounds like the best advice, although you could certainly use your investigation techniques once you’re meeting girls in real life.
I tried online for a couple months while still in the US. For me, super fun, yup your feelings can carry you away if you allow it, but in the end it's a huge waste of time. It's pure fantasy. Of course you're not going to have issues, because there's nothing to have issues over. Spend 2 days with a person in reality and everything can change. Better spending your time preparing to get in country. When in country you don't have to say you're in country on dating apps. Say you're still back home. Then if you want to meet a woman after chatting a few times, and she's close to where you are you can say you're coming to see her in 2 days or whatever. No need to lie and make up flights and stuff. Just, "Coming to see you tomorrow. I'll message you when I get there." Then go quiet, and then meet her. She'll be thrilled you'd do that for her. She won't have the silly insecurity of "All foreigners in country must be seeing other Filipinas." This gives you time to explore the country. Beach or mountains. Thailand or PH or Malaysia or Indonesia or ... You meet "the one" online and you're locked into wherever she wants to live. Find where you want to live and then get serious.
Dated a chick for 3 years and never let her see my Facebook. It is how I found out she started seeing another guy when I was working 80 hour weeks; saw it on her Facebook, which she didn't know I could see.
Facebook group “Philippines Expats” has 40,000 members- join that and post your question there - I have a friend who met his fiancé in a fb group - not sure which. Thanks for subscribing
Tinder boots on the ground is how I caught mine. I know it sounds counterintuitive. She’d only been on tinder 2 months suggested by a friend to do it she’d never used any dating sights. She was just so matched to me so good. It hasn’t let up since 5 months ago. We married quick.
what your advice to investigate flippina from questions and answers by chatting on whatsapp? and what kind of stories of flippina created to mention she wants money without ask for money ?
Oh Rob, Chrissy, your KILLING me ! ! ! I've watched this video 5 times now from start to finish and half the time you are talking in another language to me. That is mostly my own fault though. I have never had a facebook account. I NEVER use social media; at 70yo and retired, I would much rather meet someone over coffee and talk to them face to face then try to message them on the phone. I understand that the deep dive stuff is to verify the veracity of what the girl has told you and to see if there are other accounts. But most of the terms you used are way over my head; and I'm 6'2"! lol Yeah I'm not going to try dating sites, or chatting before I get there. I'm going to show up, get a place for a month or two and try and hook up with the Expats. Rob you found yourself a woman that is exactly like what I am looking for. I hope I can get that lucky and find some Expats who know someone like Chrissy that I can meet. You two are my ideal example of what I am searching for. A woman that can love me for me. I have no clue how to do that AI thingy you two were talking about for pictures. And I'm not really into glamour pictures. I'd much rather just see a picture of her without makeup. Once I meet her in RL in person, I will see exactly what she is truly like without makeup so just use that as your picture. I have plenty enough flaws of my own and if she likes me for me I know I will like her for her. I'll keep following your videos and posts and I hope that someday when I can get over to PH that I can treat you both to a nice day out with dinner. Thank you both for being real and God Bless and keep you both. Brian
I don't use FB either. I've encountered a number of scammers on social media, especially over the past few months after starting my new company. They seem to have come out of the woodwork. Truly unbelievable approach...one of my friends with expertise in computer security read some of the stuff and suggested she may have been using an AI chat bot. It was way beyond fake photos....a combination of savvy investment banker, Singaporean supermodel and catfisher rolled into one. A massive line of very persuasive BS. There was a good dating site I used for a while when in SE Asia, but it's now no longer available over here. I prefer the old school approach. It may limit my options, but perhaps also limit my exposure to scammers. I also have a number of good friends across SE Asia arranging introductions for me. That's how I met my late wife.
What you're saying about "content not available" on someone's Facebook page is not accurate. Even when I go onto my own Facebook page I have many posts that say "content not available" I haven't done anything to hide any of my posts. I don't know why the content is not available but, it is not because of anything I did. So if you're investigating a woman's page and you see this it's not necessarily because she's trying to hide something.
I think if someone tags you and that someone hides or takes away the post, the content not available appears on the original person and the person who’s been tagged the page personally, I never let anyone tag me and most people whose pages I’m familiar with would not be tagged in a post that would be later removed you make a good point. Thanks for watching and sharing
BahajajA.....these are fucken funny....the best one I have heard yet was she was looking for her sandals for 2 hrs lol.....😅😅😅😅. A lot of us foreigners are not stupid!! I will play the game with them. Little do they know that I already kno the game. But I like to play to see how far they think they can get. Then when you slam them and tell them they ain't getting shit from you is the best thing to say to them. Then they are shocked they put in all this effort trying to scam you with all the love you and miss you and blah, blah , blah....bullshit. It's just good to see their faces when you tell them to "F"off...😂😂😂😂
You know the problem with what you did communicating with those woman and why you did it? Because you can compartmentalize relationships into 3 categories. There is a mental aspect an emotional aspect and a physical aspect. You were talking to these woman and stated in your video you started to become attached. Right? You see the woman know weak lonely men and can sense this half way around the world and they know the next step for them is to send money or they will stop talking to you. These woman satisfied the mental aspect of yours and in your mind they were your girlfriends but in their minds you where just a walking talking ATM 🏧. I am not trying to insult you I am just trying to tell you the truth. And you should dissuade men from being exploited from any amount of money weather it be $20.00 or $2,000.00. Only weak low value low worth men send money to woman they never met before. And they do it because that’s the only way they can get woman to talk to them. That’s the hard honest truth.
Isn't it incredible the reach and impact that FB has had on societies across the world?
Especially in PH
I give Rob some credit for going into some pretty specific detailed advice here. Better than I've seen in most other such vids.
Thanks Sean 🙏

Possibly she responded, but it got hung up in transmission and arrive late
Yep happens with my wife’s connection in the boonies or mine in the mountains
Wen I am working i tell my girlfriend wot time i starts working and wot time i finishing work but I message and videos call her wen I have my break the only trouble with long distance relationship is there a 8 hours time difference i live in England
8 hours can be difficult

I laughed for 30 mins the way you said BULLSHIT. Lololololol
Allen, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. We appreciate the feedback.
This stuff is common in the phils.

There is the "content not available" But you can't tell if it his hidden or deleted.
Oh well, if she was seeing someone, i guess she wouldn't asking how my brother is, or having a mass said for my parents, or telling me to cut my nails, or telling me to look after my brother when he had covid. or asking me why I took so long in replying, or where was I all day, or falling asleep when she chat me, when i tell her to go asleep.
In other words, Facebook is like an onion. The more you dig into it, the more tears will come out of your eyes.
🤔
Hahaaaaaa re your FB onion analogy 😂
Thanks for this. I was about to pull the trigger and put boots on the ground. Did the deeper Facebook search and found some pictures of her and another guy 4 accounts removed. Turns out she cheated on me and got pregnant from another guy. Trying to cancel the trip now.
So sorry to hear but glad you were able to make good use of the video. Thanks for your support and your comment my advice don’t cancel the ticket. You will find a Filipina here they’re everywhere.
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines I'll consider it. Not exactly in the frame of mind of wanting a woman in my life right now after yet another instance of the cheating that is so rampant here ... but, I'll give it some time and think about it. Thanks.
@@josiah5776 the thing is all the expats. I know here are happily involved with the Filipina many of them for 10 years so the ones who found someone special and moved here. They’re all in normal relationships and all the Filipina girlfriends and wives are sweet as can be, so it’s the other side of the Looking Glass instead of a bunch of scammers that have to filter through the men who made it to the other side of the semi permeable membrane. We’re all living these happy lives with wonderful women. Secret is to have patience. Don’t give up and get to the other side of the semi permeable membrane.
what do you think of a ldr over 2 years and the philipina has never done or said anything sexual with the western man , she tells him i dont do that online you have to wait until we meet in person , is that valid or is she just dragging the guy along cause he gives her an alowance every month of 100 dollars
Thanks for watching, not sure how to answer- I guess the therapist charges $150 an hour for 50 minutes these Filipinos will talk to you for two hours a day for $100 a month. It’s pretty good deal.
I am new to your channel, but every other reputable seeming vlogger on this subject says don’t even bother with online dating. Just wait till you get there. Get to know the Philippines a little bit and THEN start looking for your Filipina.
To me, this really sounds like the best advice, although you could certainly use your investigation techniques once you’re meeting girls in real life.
I tried online for a couple months while still in the US. For me, super fun, yup your feelings can carry you away if you allow it, but in the end it's a huge waste of time. It's pure fantasy. Of course you're not going to have issues, because there's nothing to have issues over.
Spend 2 days with a person in reality and everything can change. Better spending your time preparing to get in country.
When in country you don't have to say you're in country on dating apps. Say you're still back home. Then if you want to meet a woman after chatting a few times, and she's close to where you are you can say you're coming to see her in 2 days or whatever. No need to lie and make up flights and stuff. Just, "Coming to see you tomorrow. I'll message you when I get there." Then go quiet, and then meet her. She'll be thrilled you'd do that for her. She won't have the silly insecurity of "All foreigners in country must be seeing other Filipinas."
This gives you time to explore the country. Beach or mountains. Thailand or PH or Malaysia or Indonesia or ... You meet "the one" online and you're locked into wherever she wants to live. Find where you want to live and then get serious.
Thanks for watching and sharing. You have some good advice in this comment.
Dated a chick for 3 years and never let her see my Facebook. It is how I found out she started seeing another guy when I was working 80 hour weeks; saw it on her Facebook, which she didn't know I could see.
It’s always fb. Years ago I heard 20% of divorce filings referenced Facebook
Hi, are there any groupes with serious filipinas looking for a foreigner?
Facebook group “Philippines Expats” has 40,000 members- join that and post your question there - I have a friend who met his fiancé in a fb group - not sure which. Thanks for subscribing
Tinder boots on the ground is how I caught mine. I know it sounds counterintuitive. She’d only been on tinder 2 months suggested by a friend to do it she’d never used any dating sights. She was just so matched to me so good. It hasn’t let up since 5 months ago. We married quick.
what your advice to investigate flippina from questions and answers by chatting on whatsapp? and what kind of stories of flippina created to mention she wants money without ask for money ?
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment rather than answer here possibly it’s a good idea for another video
I don't even chat them anymore
I got a nose bleed😅😅
😂😂
I coudln't handle the 'dramatic' sound effects so bailed
@@chriswilliamson4693 we made the video our second week. Content is amazing- give it another try
@@FlyMeToThePhilippines Maybe I'll read the transcript
Oh Rob, Chrissy, your KILLING me ! ! ! I've watched this video 5 times now from start to finish and half the time you are talking in another language to me. That is mostly my own fault though. I have never had a facebook account. I NEVER use social media; at 70yo and retired, I would much rather meet someone over coffee and talk to them face to face then try to message them on the phone.
I understand that the deep dive stuff is to verify the veracity of what the girl has told you and to see if there are other accounts. But most of the terms you used are way over my head; and I'm 6'2"! lol
Yeah I'm not going to try dating sites, or chatting before I get there. I'm going to show up, get a place for a month or two and try and hook up with the Expats. Rob you found yourself a woman that is exactly like what I am looking for. I hope I can get that lucky and find some Expats who know someone like Chrissy that I can meet.
You two are my ideal example of what I am searching for. A woman that can love me for me. I have no clue how to do that AI thingy you two were talking about for pictures. And I'm not really into glamour pictures. I'd much rather just see a picture of her without makeup. Once I meet her in RL in person, I will see exactly what she is truly like without makeup so just use that as your picture. I have plenty enough flaws of my own and if she likes me for me I know I will like her for her.
I'll keep following your videos and posts and I hope that someday when I can get over to PH that I can treat you both to a nice day out with dinner. Thank you both for being real and God Bless and keep you both. Brian
Thanks Brian I loved reading your comment. Look forward to meeting you.
I don't use FB either. I've encountered a number of scammers on social media, especially over the past few months after starting my new company. They seem to have come out of the woodwork. Truly unbelievable approach...one of my friends with expertise in computer security read some of the stuff and suggested she may have been using an AI chat bot. It was way beyond fake photos....a combination of savvy investment banker, Singaporean supermodel and catfisher rolled into one. A massive line of very persuasive BS. There was a good dating site I used for a while when in SE Asia, but it's now no longer available over here. I prefer the old school approach. It may limit my options, but perhaps also limit my exposure to scammers. I also have a number of good friends across SE Asia arranging introductions for me. That's how I met my late wife.
What you're saying about "content not available" on someone's Facebook page is not accurate. Even when I go onto my own Facebook page I have many posts that say "content not available" I haven't done anything to hide any of my posts. I don't know why the content is not available but, it is not because of anything I did. So if you're investigating a woman's page and you see this it's not necessarily because she's trying to hide something.
I think if someone tags you and that someone hides or takes away the post, the content not available appears on the original person and the person who’s been tagged the page personally, I never let anyone tag me and most people whose pages I’m familiar with would not be tagged in a post that would be later removed you make a good point. Thanks for watching and sharing
Leave your jealousy and insecurities in the west It’s your choice to be scammed or not
BahajajA.....these are fucken funny....the best one I have heard yet was she was looking for her sandals for 2 hrs lol.....😅😅😅😅. A lot of us foreigners are not stupid!! I will play the game with them. Little do they know that I already kno the game. But I like to play to see how far they think they can get. Then when you slam them and tell them they ain't getting shit from you is the best thing to say to them. Then they are shocked they put in all this effort trying to scam you with all the love you and miss you and blah, blah , blah....bullshit. It's just good to see their faces when you tell them to "F"off...😂😂😂😂
Thanks for watching our video and supporting our channel
I love to do the same with telemarketers. The game is to see how much of their time I can waste.
Her demeanor and facial reactions do not instill trust pal, seriously. Be ready to run any time 😂
Thanks for viewing
You know the problem with what you did communicating with those woman and why you did it? Because you can compartmentalize relationships into 3 categories. There is a mental aspect an emotional aspect and a physical aspect. You were talking to these woman and stated in your video you started to become attached. Right? You see the woman know weak lonely men and can sense this half way around the world and they know the next step for them is to send money or they will stop talking to you. These woman satisfied the mental aspect of yours and in your mind they were your girlfriends but in their minds you where just a walking talking ATM 🏧. I am not trying to insult you I am just trying to tell you the truth. And you should dissuade men from being exploited from any amount of money weather it be $20.00 or $2,000.00. Only weak low value low worth men send money to woman they never met before. And they do it because that’s the only way they can get woman to talk to them. That’s the hard honest truth.
Would love to talk to you. Planning to arrive in a few months and head to Mindanao. Do you have instagram?
You can look at our Facebook page, fly me to the Philippines and message there
