i would like to move to the philippines
i understand what you are saying about relatives wanting to mooch money from you.in 1974-1976 i was in the navy and spent some time in p.i. it was terrific and i will never forget the experiance.i have been unhappily married now for many years and until recently the philippines was just a distant memory in the back of my sub-concsious mind.recently however,my younger brother has bagan to correspond with a fillipina girl on some fhilapina dating service on the internet.well let me tell you that in my mind he really opened up a can of worms (a very large can) and he really got me thinking about the philippines and the women that live there.i have been carfully researching the philippines on the internet now for more than two weeks and let me tell you that i want to go there right now so bad that i can taste it.my life has been so hum drum now for so long and my marrige so rocky that going to the philipppines is almost more temptation than i can handle.on top of all this living here in america really stinks right now.i hat california and i despise the town i live in.perhaps i am being ungratefull but it is hard for me to exist at my age here in california.im not very old though.i just turned 53 two days ago.my business is doing lousy and my marriage is almost beyond repair.it is more than tempting to take the money that i have and retire early to the philippines,leaving my wife and child behind to fend for themselfs.of course i would get a legal divorce first.does anyone out there have any advice for me!!!.am i not intitled to be happy the remainder of my days?

Just dont think that you can leave all worries and troubles behind as sepa-
rating your family. I did it 5 years ago at the age 48 (so we are at the same
age 53) but the hardest thing in my life is to live without my children. Even I
have a wonderful filipina now more than 2 years beside me, still I
have to say:”Be sure that you know what you`re doing!”
Wish you luck! Get to know your filipinas family, backround and relatives so well, before thinking anything serious with her, ok?

Mabuhay,
Come on over to the Philippines! There are MANY Americans living here now, since the November 2008 Election…lol…. I have many friends that will get you pointed in the right direction. Just let me know if you decide to move or visit here. We live in the Manila Area our self. But have friends all over the Islands. My email is amc_renault@yahoo.com if you would like to talk more.
Bye for now,
Art & Ana
