OP,
There is a lot of truth in what you say. The Philippines is not as good as it used to be. The quality of girls is lower now. The good ones got married or changed into bad girls that are more selfish and narcissistic. It's definitely not as good as it was when I first arrived in 2006. However, it's not true that it's impossible to get a decent girlfriend there. It certainly is still possible, but the problem is that the pickings are slimmer and there are less good girls to choose from now. The modern generation there is kind of spoiled, like in Western countries and NE Asia. So the quality isn't what it used to be. But it's not true that all girls there don't want to meet or date foreign men and only want you to send money to them online. It could also be that you just keep meeting bad girls too because some people attract bad people a lot.

But you can't say it's impossible to get a date or girlfriend there. Lots of guys have girlfriends or wives there. You can see this on YouTube even, and even on this forum. So you can't make extreme generalizations like that. All you can do is admit that you have had a lot of bad luck there. But it doesn't mean it's true for everyone.

I agree, it is still much easier for men visiting Philippines to find a reasonable woman than in Europe, Northern America and Australia.

To find a suitable female partner in Philippines is also much easier than to look around in advanced other Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Hongkong and also city state of Singapore.

If you visit Philippines, you will notice many Japanese, Koreans, Chinese from Taiwan etc. who are looking for a wife in the Philippines.

I can see where OP is coming from, but I don’t think all Filipinas are like that. I’ve met some wonderful and amazing women in the provinces, where they are more traditional and family-oriented. The dating sites are a bit of a hit-and-miss, but if you’re patient and careful, you might find yourself a gem. A girlfriend who is wife-material is not easy to find, but that’s what makes her so precious, right?
