PhilippinesIs it better to be a man or a woman?
QUOTE (tallcoolone @ Sep 20 2009, 03:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Walk the streets of Philippines, and be an American Male.

You will find the answer out real quick

You will be treated like Rock Star or a Celebrity. You will be called Gwapo over and over again, so much you might start to think your name is Gwapo


And the bigger lump you have in your levis.."the wallet with the pesos" not the other lump..the more gwapo you will be called.. whistling.gif But getting back to the topic...being a male has it's ups and downs..but not nearly as up and down as some females can be with the monthly sickness, the tampo, and the sudden mood swings..then later the menopause..thank goodness for San Miguel, a man's little relief in times of a emotionally upset pinay. Or as I say to my wife with a smile.." Please don't be so hot headed dear..you will boil your eggs "

My fiance was on her way to the medical when a man snatched her documents and ran, she soon find the papers in the trash, luckily she found them, well the guy tore the visa patetion reciept from BDO(the blue paper) if she tapes it up and lets it dry , will they except it for her interview?????? please god say yes!!!!!
another F-ed up day in our life right now. "I Love you jocelyn, one day we will hold each other again!!!"


The embassy is very close to ST. Lukes..perhaps your fiance' could speak to someone there before her interview and explain the snatching..seems like if the document was all there, but tore some, it may be ok, she may even want to present it un-fixed, as it will be as they way it was snatched, and the embassy may want to do the taping. Sorry to hear of such a bad thing..Best of Luck..God Bless

PhilippinesInterview failed....Manila Embassy...
EROS,

You have been absolutely shell shocked, and I know all here can feel your pain. Only you can know if a strong love exhists between you and your fiance' and if it does..don't give up...it must seem like a hopeless, impossible situation right now..as your pain subsides a little bit, and God knows you have a ton right now..you will better be able to focus on the immigration troubles.. and this may still all work out. My deepest regards go out to you and Sally... God Bless

PhilippinesANNULMENT in the RP....stupid laws
Ours was 2 years and 110,000 p...depends whether it's Luzon, Visayas or Mindanao on how fast it goes and how many judges are available for the particular region where filed..Psycological Incapacity is usually the way they go...Making the ex hubby the crazy one, starting with a psycologist that gives a battery of tests to both man and woman of the marriage...from there a lawyer gets involved,,and is true the more generous you are with money pasalubong..the better the results.

PhilippinesUse an immigration Service
The wife and I did it ourselves..and while I wouldn't exactly call it easy, it wasn't that terribly hard, but I was lucky as my wife worked very closely with me doing her paper chasing in the Phils, as I did the petitioner forms here in the states, so if you have a good partner who will work with you, it helps alot, and of course VJ was a wonderful source of info. too.

PhilippinesWhat does it mean?

What does it mean when a Filipino tells you 'it just happened' when they did something like spend too much or was gone too long or whatever? wacko.gif


Means the same as when an American says " Oh well, chit happens " innocent.gif
