Me:23
Her:24
Funny bit, when I first started talking to her she asked if she was too old for me being one year older. I got a good laugh.

I noticed while living in San Pedro, Laguna that Filipinas prefer older men, if they are foreigners. I can honestly say that everywhere Thelmz and I went, we were accepted as the norm. Friends and pamilia were excited about our relationship and all gave us their blessings when she moved in with me. Her Mom, Lola and friends actually helped her move (I was at work).
From that point on our relationship and love grew exponentialy....and the condo was never the same...always full of Filipino, whether friends, pamilia or co-workers. I wouldn't trade a day of our life together for anything! Call it destiny, or fate or whatever, Love is the greatest elixir known to mankind. If my being 24 years mahal ko's senior causes us no issues, then it shouldn't cause issues for others, we are happy, and those who know us are happy for us! God's Peace to everyone here!

Me : 28 turning 29 this October
him: 27

Michael is 39
Peewee is 33

Baboy - 47
Unggoy - 27

20 years difference..And if I say anything about it, I'm in big trouble with the Unggoy, and her family..

They keep telling me, "Are you paralyzed?" Then you're not old.

I've never felt closer to any person in my life. Can't get enough of talking, laughing, sharing, dancing, and videoke with her. Did I really say Videoke????

him-- 27
me-- 27, but im 38days older than him

US - 55
PH - 30
Baby - due in 20 weeks

I wonder why people ask questions that they think they already know the answer to (or at least they're suggesting an answer).

He - 45
Filipina - 38

nathan-20

jenes-17

2 years 9 months....shell be 18 in less then a month.ill be 21 in less then 4 months.

Michelle (USC) is 26 turning 27 this August 27.
I am 28 turning 29 this September 23.

2 year and 1 month difference between us.

But i really do notice that Filipinas prefer older foreign nationals probably because there are very ready to settle down. I guess i am one of the few in this trail who married a full blooded Filipina (who also grew here in the Philippines) but is at the same time a "naturalized" USC. Anyways, age does not matter for me. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say. And as long as you LOVE each other then that is OK (did not marry just for the Green Card - joke ). We just got married recently (May 2007) and i may be a rookie on this matter, all i can say is that marriage is not a joke - you have to work for it and be patient, caring, understanding, trustful and loving.

Well, sorry if i sound "mushy". I just miss her so much!

Well you don't sound mushy, you sound like someone in love, and that my friend is what makes us all the same in this world. We are all rookies when it comes to love, no matter our age or length of relationship, everyday is a new experience and if we seek this out daily, our love for our asawa will only grow and grow and grow. Congrats and best wishes! Ingat ka palagi!

My guess is that the abundance of large gap couples in LDRs simply comes from availability. The number of older 35+ year-old foreigners looking for marriage in the Phils far outnumber the 20- something year-old competition... I remember going there when I was 28 and marriage was the farthest from my mind at that time.

So what does that leave us with? Predominantly older guys and young girls- that's who’s looking and that's what's readily available- so those are the ones hooking up.

If 20 something- year- old, ready to settle down foreigners suddenly entered the mix in numbers, you probably won't see as many large gap couples. The gaps would be more like you would find in local relationships.

we want to add ours in the list:

My hubby is 38 & I am 23.

adam is turning 28 on the 23rd...
grace turned 28 last march...


missmyhubby sooooooo much...

age is just number. most important things are that you love, respect and believe in each other.
its just so wonderful to share those with him/her

Me (USC) 23 yrs
Her (Filipina) 25 yrs

1 1/2 yr difference

Seems odd that I am marrying an older filipina, but we are both still very young.

I'll throw ours in... 1155 days difference. Or 3 years and 2 months. Between the two of us, we've now about waited almost exactly 50 years combined to be married to each other, or 18266.76 days. Do the math to find out our ages. I'm older.

hey jasman i like you especially everytime you mention Claudeth's name it's cute. oh i love camiguin been there once in 1996 and wish to be back there again in the future...

cheers!

Okay, I'll play. I've been avoiding it but I can't resist any longer.

I'm 43
My beautiful wife is 23

Yes we are truly in love.

I've noticed there are a lot of 40 something year old Kevins married to filipinas. I guess it was a popular name in the 60's or, its like when you buy a new car and you see so many like yours on the road. hmmmm.....

I love mentioning her too You should see her, she is a little bundle of dynamite full of all sorts of energy. She puts a smile on my face every day.

I really loved Camiguin. The next time we will go to Johnny's Dive shop next door to the Paras Beach Resort. The rooms are cheaper, the food is tons better and they have diving instruction and all sorts of diving exersions. We spent the day at White Island and I looked like a lobster afterwards

I was too trying to avoid this Poll but since most are doing it I'll join in also.

Well, I am 27 years old and My wonderful Pinay wife is also the same age 27 both born in 1980.

Y'all are basically the same age as me and my Fiancee. I'm from 80 and she's from 79; and also in the Dallas area.

speakin' of camiguin lol we were there too last yr... eat at secret cove (their room was full at that time so we stayed at paras resort) but we had a little touring with johny on his truck and some snorkling with romeo (johny's employee)... it was fun there...

I am 43, she is 20. Age difference 23 y, 6 months.

I am 37 she is 34.

Wow, I cant believe my poll is still going after all this time. But i guess i have to change it a bit now because im older.

I am 33 now
She is 30 still.

Age difference...still 2 years 6 mo!

I am 34

he is 27

Im 7 years older

And obviously, we, who have big age difference are still here too...

Remember this?
