The Marriage Proposal

THE PROPOSAL OF MARRIAGE:

Of course, every situation is different. However, this question arises so often that it is worth noting here. No matter what the situation, the proposal is a very important moment in BOTH of your lives and should be taken very seriously.

WHY PROPOSE IN TAGALOG?

Many Americans, even though they discuss marriage before he arrives in Philippines, like to surprise her by proposing marriage in TAGALOG language while they are videotaping the proposal in Philippines. This will often bring about a very memorable response from the Filipina, Pinay, often times even tears of joy. Not only because you have asked her formally, but also because you loved and cared enough about her to learn how to say this in her own language. Even the parents will find this VERY special!

IS YOUR AGE DIFFERENCE A PROBLEM?

One of the greatest positive points of Filipina, (Pinay), is the fact that in the Philippines, your age difference is usually NOT a problem! In fact, to most ladies in the Philippines, (and to their families), the belief and hope is that if you are an older gentleman, that you are much less likely to be a "playboy", and also that you will take much better care of your fiancée. It is for this reason that so many ladies in Philippines state they are looking for a gentleman over 40 years old.So DO NOT BE EMBARRASSED if you should be attracted to a much younger Filipina lady!!
