Online Filipina Dating: The Things You Need to Know

The number of people who want to meet and date single Filipinas have been growing in the last few years. With their one-of -a- kind beauty and charm, this is not very surprising.

It’s not hard to find amazing Filipinas online. There are hundreds of them that use a dating site for single Filipinas, while there are also others who prefer to use the mainstream social media. No matter which way you want to reach them, there are some things you should know first if you want to really capture their hearts through online dating.


Filipinas are very conservative

Filipino women are raised in a culture where they are taught to always act reserved. They place very high value in themselves no matter what their social status is. Don’t be surprised if the Filipina you are dating is not very comfortable with when talking about sex and intimacy.

Filipinas have beliefs that are rooted in Christianity

The Philippines is the biggest Christian country in Asia, and the 5th biggest Christian country in the world. Although the entire population is divided among different denominations, their beliefs, values, and practices are very similar.

Filipinas will appreciate men who have respect for their religion, as they grew up in families that observe the Christian traditions very strictly. Do not make jokes about it or make fun of it. It would help you in your Filipino dating journey if you always display good manners and show respect for others constantly.

Filipinas love men with good humor

Filipinas are carefree and they love to hear good jokes. They laugh easily and would enjoy your company if you make an effort to make them feel happy. Just make sure that you don’t tell them something offensive to their culture and religion.

Filipinas love a romantic partner

If you watch Filipino produced films and TV shows, you would know that Filipinas love the art of romance. They are drawn to men who will shower them with sweet words and gifts. They also fall easily for men who will make themselves available immediately in times of her troubles.

Filipinas look for romantic men even in an online Filipino dating site. You don’t need to send her flowers and gifts all the time, but make an effort to be sweet. Check on her regularly and let her know that you want to make sure she’s okay. Take interest in her interests and engage in meaningful conversations. As long as you don’t act too clingy, chances are she’ll be wanting to be in a relationship with you quickly, too.

Filipina dating experiences are certainly very unique. Dealing with a culture that places such high value in women and commitment can be quite difficult at first, but you will learn a lot along the way. There is definitely nothing that should hinder you from giving it a try.

Tingting Cojuangco Announces "Tingtings List: The Elegant Filipina"

Had the chance to meet Ms. Tingting Cojuangco a month ago, it was a good thing. How awesome do you think is it to meet a woman with timeless beauty? How do you quantify elegance? Who do you think is an Elegant Filipina? These questions lingered my mind when she informed us of an upcoming event on the 22nd of September at the Diamond Hotel Ballroom. The place will bare witness as Ms. Tingting Cojuangco announces Tingtings List: The Elegant Filipina.

During the interview Ms. Tingting says "Initially they wanted to have someone recognize just the best dressed, and as we were evolving during meetings, we wanted a professional group to do it. With Pete Cura of Core Plan and we got through to a concept. I wanted the idea of not just being best dressed, but wanted more of how refined, how consistent, with good manners, you say the right things at the right time, it's something that parents taught us when we were small, being dressed nice is a bonus. That's the elegant Filipina. We made the list with Anton San Diego, Chit Lijauco, Mark Higgins, Tina Ocampo and Lisette Espiritu and asked them if we're on the right track about our thoughts and it was a good thing to listen to some advice. There was never a girl that was not okay when we had them listed, but there were more of someone better than the other one. That's how we came up with the list. We wanted to find 8 and it was actually very difficult to find elegant Filipinas. We asked to extend it to 13 but three of the women on the list is out of the country, so we'll invite them hopefully in the next one. There's always next year.

An elegant Filipina is refined, has manners, she fixes herself whether in or out of the house. You don't have to buy a new dress all the time, it's an instilled thing since we're kids and it's carried on, even if in my age now we don't talk when your parents are talking to someone, you do proper norms, something decent in the standards of society. It's basic, in fact I finished the manual for PNP for etiquette and it's meant more for everybody. It's simple reminders, etiquette, one that should remember all the time. It's to teach, it's refinement and how she acts, that's an elegant Filipina. It's a matter of knowing yourself, adapting to the things you do, it's what's proper. It's as simple as saying Excuse me, Please and Thank You. A fashion show will complement the list, we will honor the women, to say these are the elegant women. They already know who they are since we had to shoot. We'll release the names perhaps a week before the event."

And they did!

She adds "There are young girls now that can vie for it soon, but they're not home grown because they have their own stylists. Women should be exposed to people, limelight, they learn from the world out there so you kinda en-vibe the culture, these are the women I am looking for. It will happen in Diamond Hotel. I personally chose Albert Andrada, Rajo Laurel, Ronaldo Arnaldo, JC Buendia and they will have a new collection just for the show. They're all going to make a new collection just for the event and it will complement our elegant Filipinas. We had 17 people in mind and it was hard to put them in a short list. We burnt the wires and took us about two weeks. I also want to protect the women I chose, I think so, this is my list. Our beneficiaries are going to be some weavers in La Trinidad in Benguet so they get money to buy thread and looms. We are also going to train 100 individuals in TESDA for a month, we're planning to put up a fashion center in the Visayas. We'll do it again next year hopefully. But I'm sure we're not going to do worst dressed, that's mean. Next year will be a different set, it has a lot to do with etiquette, an overall package. Hopefully, Filipinos get inspired." 

I can't wait to see the Elegant Filipinas and the awesome fashion show happening this September 22 at the Diamond Hotel Ballroom from 6-9PM. I'll make sure I get to take shots of the runway. Congratulations on this endeavor Ms. Tingting!

Rose Fostanes: My Way

Rose Fostanes sings "This is my life"

Filipina caregiver Rose "Osang" Fostanes sang her heart out a few days ago in a press dinner at Sir Boy's Food Republic in Quezon City. Rose Fostanes won the hearts of people worldwide for winning XFactor Israel which happened a couple months ago. She went back to the Philippines to record and promote her own album released by Star Records. She happily waved the thing when we sat down with her that evening. She laments "This is it, this is my dream! I now have my own album!".   

I have already known her story because I followed her journey in XFactor Israel in Youtube videos but I didn't know how much struggle she has gone through being an OFW. Her family is so proud of her because she has fulfilled a life long dream at the age of 45. It's a little late she says but she's so happy she won the stint even if she's not an Israeli. She also says it was awesome to see the Israeli's to be so genuinely good to her. No matter how flawed some of her songs are, they still applaud her normally. She is a little sad though that some Pinoys have been too critical about her performances and says she reads all those comments from websites. She is a little sad but hopeful that this in some way would change. Going back to her album, she says this has been a really good blessing for her and she also hopes that Filipinos would appreciate how much work is put in in these songs. Her interpretations of classics and the new songs from world class composers was a surprise. I even heard something very pop and modern which she says was given to her in Israel even if she didn't win XFactor yet, a number that you should never miss to listen to. Who knows, she might end up hitting the charts soon and get played regularly in the airwaves, something that she wishes to see soon. 

She hopes that you continue to support her like the time you watched her in X Factor Israel. "Rose Fostanes: My Way" is now available in major record stores nationwide and is released by Star Records.
