Split up with my Pinay earlier this year around three years into an LDR. Took this long for the exaggerated stories to surface and the requests for money to begin. I'm pretty sure the family put her up to it and they were seen as pillars of the community too. I did everything right apart from underestimating the family. I don't regret meeting her, though.

If that's what it takes then so be it. Best to know early on than years down the line. I actually think it's vital to know 100% that she loves you before thinking about marriage. And it doesn't matter what she says as this has about as much value as a Yum Burger from Jollibee's. Talk is cheap.
Of course, there are Pinay's out there who want a man for all the right reasons. I know a few here in the U.K. They're the type who don't mind going out to work to support their family in the Phils and don't expect their husbands to shoulder the burden.
And let's be clear about scammers. They come from all corners of the globe including Britain. Any woman who marries a man for financial reasons is a scammer in my eyes, regardless of their nationality.

You sound a bit defeatist there, LM.
Not all women are materialistic, some see a man's loyalty for instance as a form of wealth.
At the end of the day there is somebody out there for everyone and you need to install a positive belief into your mind that someday you will find her.

One of the main reasons why my expat friends in Makati will not allow ANY of their girlfriends' relatives to visit their condos.
Sounds harsh, I know, but too many of them have been there and done it before when it comes to being a cash cow.
With so many available women in the Philippines, I have never really understood why some guys go over there and want to marry the first woman they meet..........
