How Will A Filipino Girl Learn To Like You?

You will not find it that necessary to know how will a Filipino girl learn to like you unless you are you enamored by her beauty, charm, or wit. Well, you certainly are not alone. Men from different countries and all walks of life are just as interested in Filipino girls as you are. Filipinos do have that kind of charm that magnetizes men. Sometimes, all it takes is one look and you know there's nothing else you'd want more than make her learn to like you.
Well, Filipina girls are not hard to please, so don't feel intimidated. But it doesn't mean that getting a girl from the Philippines to like you is a walk in the park, either. You cannot be overconfident. Learning how to balance your actions is very critical.
The first step to getting a Filipino girl to like you is to be a gentleman. If you're not exactly the gentleman type of a guy, you must work on it to increase your chances of winning the heart of a Filipina. Feminism is now being given importance in the Philippines, and being a gentleman does not have to change that, all. Actually, to be a gentleman in these modern times does not mean rescuing a lady in distress or making the girl feel she needs you all the time to do stuff for her. To be a gentleman simply means being there with her, not necessarily, for her. To be a gentleman is not to go overboard with your actions to the point that they become insulting or even revolting to the opposite sex. It doesn't sound very easy now, does it? Well that makes the whole process of getting the Filpina to like you more challenging, more exciting.
You will increase your chances of a Filipina liking you when you show her in any way that you're thinking about her. An easy way to d this is by sending her text messages. Texting in the Philippines has become a favorite pastime. The girls actually look forward to their cellphones beeping, alerting them of an incoming message. Send her something that will put a smile on her face. You don't have to say a lot for as long as it is something that you really mean to tell her. But you wouldn't want to fill her inbox with text messages coming from you. Keep the excitement going by sending her messages in the morning, at midday and once at night time.
You may want to give her flowers, too, to let her know that you think of her as someone special. But keep in mind that not every Filipina loves to receive flowers, especially from virtual strangers. Determine first if the Filipina is the flower type sort of girl and find out what her favorite flower is before sending her a bouquet.
Be in your best behavior while being yourself at the same time. Don't change who you are. Just be yourself and show your best qualities. That is how will a Filipino girl learn to like you.

Why Are Online Dating Sites Shameful To Use?

I am outraged at how people can still be ashamed of using online dating services. A friend of mine finally decided to try something new to change her love life. Since none of the conventional ways seemed to work out well for her, she agreed to register on a dating site. She still doesn't believe that anything good can come of it, but we did spend the whole evening reading men's profiles, looking through their pictures, trying to predict what kind of person is hidden behind those online profiles.
Everything was the same old story - shy guys have just one picture, usually taken as a reflection in the mirror, womanizers share tons of photos depicting the most show-off moments of their lives (new luxurious car, tanned body with a six-pack, etc.). However, in the midst of all that there were couple of points that really caught my attention - in nearly a third of these profiles men wrote that they didn't want anybody to know that they met their wife/girlfriend on the online dating site. Such a confession was usually followed by the list of places where people can actually meet in real life. "All our friends need to know is that we met at a grocery store". "Nobody would ever know we met on this site, we were going to the same gym, I stopped by to help you fix your car on the highway... "
Another thing that disturbed me a little is that nearly half of these profile descriptions start with a detailed explanation of why they decided to try dating online - "I'm tired of the bar scene and a friend told me about this matchmaking service", "I would never start using online dating sites but due to my work hours I don't have any opportunity to meet people in real life". Excuses, excuses...
My observation made me think a lot about why people are so ashamed of using dating sites. One of the obvious reasons that came to mind is that somewhere deep inside we all still dream to meet our special ones in a sort of magical way. Though we also know that magic doesn't exist, we still want this first meeting to be somehow unexpected - that way we have a great story to tell our kids and grandchildren. However, when you go online in order to find the love of your life, it is by no means unexpected or magical. You know exactly why you are there - you are searching for your soul mate among all these profiles, appealing and not so much. You are lost deciding whether numerous pictures are an indicator of an open-minded person or just a minor show-off. You can't make up your mind about whom to invite on a date right away, because you don't know how to choose from all the registered users who "winked" at you.
Yes, sometimes these sites can be very disappointing; however, the advantages definitely outnumber the slight downsides. There's nothing to be ashamed of - the world has changed. It is probably way harder to meet somebody on public transportation nowadays, because of the crazy pace at which we live our lives - nobody wastes even a second. Have you been to the New York subway? If yes, then you must have seen that each person is either staring at their iPad, reading a book or newspaper or simply listening to music with their earbuds in.
I'm telling you, it is tough out there in the real world and using dating services online is not a bad idea. It's just going along with the trend. Besides, nobody says you need to register on the sites that are open to everyone. Some of the best online dating sites offer a lot of privacy options. It is understandable that sometimes you don't really want your friends or colleagues to know that you are desperately searching for your soul mate - just limit the visibility to the registered members or hide your profile from "unwanted" people using the same service.
