Do Filipinos Make Fun of Foreigners for Being There?

Do some Filipino/as actually make fun of foreigners for being in the Philippines?
It's certainly something to think about.
This was the theory that a foreigner I met there gave me. I met this British guy living in my building a few years ago with a Filipina. He told me his story and it went from being initially HA to very depressing. He came there on holidays for the first time and was of course treated like a celebrity. He then decided to go back and ended going to school there and slept with hookers, but then gave up and settled with the Filipina I met.
He said he had been there for about 2 years and every year he hated the place more because almost everyone tried to scam him. He moved out of the place we were living at and ended up living with his girls parents and family but they drove him crazy with endless demands. The next time I saw him he was living in a place that was much worse than where I was living. I know because I had walked by it and went in out of curiosity. It was an epic dump for 5,000 PHP a month. It made the very humble 10,000 PHP place I was living in look pretty good lol.
We met again by chance at a burger place and he said he was then slowly losing his mind. He was convinced that Filipinos that smile at foreigners are actually making fun of them for being there. He says he was sure that Filipinos all knew that where he was from was a much better place and anyone that came to the Philippines was a total loser that couldn't cut it back home. When I asked why he was still there he said he had to finish his 4 year school before he could leave. When he first went there he was sick of the UK, but now dreamed of being back home where almost everything was better than the Philippines. I could certainly sympathize with him, but I think he made a lot of mistakes in his life. He said he even his GF's parents neighbours had tried to scam him and he gave up on hookers after a couple scammed him. They asked him to pay before the bang and then ran off. This was a tall, decent looking middle aged guy, so I don't know why he first resorted to hookers and then a below average pudgy girl.
Last year I ran into his GF, without actually knowing who she was at first lol. She called at me on the street and came over to talk to me with her co-workers. Luckily when she asked me about things I remembered who she was. She was now much fatter of course lol. I asked how her and her guy were and she said they were still living in the dumpy place and would probably go to the UK once his school was finished. I really hope he has left there by now because I could tell last time I saw him he was very upset and don't blame him.
I'm sure some Filipinos do make fun of foreigners for being there, but I think the ones that do don't know the reality of being born into a white western culture and all it's feminist problems. Filipinos living abroad hang around the other Pinoys/Pinays so probably aren't affected by the white western feminist nonsense. They take the Filipino culture with them abroad.
I'd be interested if any Pinoy/ay members on here have opinions on this.
I do get asked a lot in the Philippines why I went there, so I'm sure most there do have total ignorance about problems for guys in western countries.
