  Old guys abusing poor young women based on income.  Sad.

  My Brother in-law was married to his Filipina wife with a 40 year age gap , he just died at 83 and she’s 43 , happily married for 18 years. She may not remarry. I see the heart felt loss.

  Your comment &apos;Some of the best deals are the ones you don&apos;t make&apos; is pure gold. <br>Wordsmiths of your calibre on YouTube are &nbsp;quite scarce, I love picking up on your nuggets! ;)

  I can relate on speaking slow. I always ask my boyfriend to speak slowly whenever I don&apos;t understand the things he&apos;s saying.

  Paul probably one of the best interviews to date. &nbsp;The concept of &quot;accept the culture and adjust&quot; needs to be almost a mantra. &nbsp;So many couples I have known and seen, the foreigner not accepting and always complaining &quot;oh she always helping her family&quot;, &quot;I make her cook her food outside because it stinks&quot; I could go on and on.

  I don&apos;t believe I have ever commented on your channel, but I must say it was refreshing to see this couple get along and be forthright about their viewpoints. &nbsp;She was composed in her thoughts and articulate in her explanations and answers. &nbsp;She is quite level headed and a realist in her thoughts and observations. &nbsp;I agree with her about the use of vulgarity and profanity in daily conversation. &nbsp;Growing up in the 1950&apos;s, 60&apos;s, 70&apos;s and early 80&apos;s or previous to that timeframe, you rarely, if at all, heard people curse in public. &nbsp;Men had respect for women and children in that regard and it was frowned upon. &nbsp;The last 25 years the F-bombs are openly used in public conversations to express contempt or pleasure. &nbsp;People no longer have integrity, dignity and respect toward others. &nbsp;Society has become a rude, crass, and vulgar cesspool of thoughts, ideologies and conversations, thanks to Hollywood, media, entertainment, porn, social media and the decline of the nuclear family and it&apos;s values. &nbsp;Show me a person that curses and you can be assured it is someone you likely cannot trust. &nbsp;One of your better interviews. &nbsp;I don&apos;t always agree with everything you do, say, and represent, however, I respect the freedom and liberty that allows you to express your opinions in a decent way. &nbsp;By the way, are they married, or just have a living together arrangement? &nbsp;Thank you.

  Paul, to echo some of the previous comments, I consider this your best interview to date! &nbsp;Your guest is probably one of the most self-aware people I have heard on this channel. &nbsp;In addition, your direct questions didn&apos;t pull any punches. &nbsp;So, as always, I really appreciate your interview style. &nbsp;You don&apos;t shy away from the tough questions! &nbsp;Your guest&apos;s life is what I will one day strive for without being a burden to anyone. &nbsp;Thank you for this interview as it provide a reality touchpoint to what is possible out there!

  The fact that a simple act like “kissing in public” is considered sacred to Filipinas and should only be done in private is a breath of fresh air. That only means that intimacy is valued very much by the culture. Intimacy is sacred!

  She is such a lucky woman to have met someone as understanding and moral like him.

  She is amazing, in that she writes things down as to perfect the way she speaks during or after tampo. He seems to really have himself together… two very intelligent people.

  I don&apos;t understand why it should be taboo to Give her money when you are old enough to be her Grandpa. I&apos;m an older woman who has a relationship with a much older guy while in University. But if I didn&apos;t have financial needs, Would Not have chosen someone so old as a partner. I&apos;m 71 and feel that it&apos;s only a fair exchange, youth for money. None of you old guys wouldn&apos;t think it&apos;s fair in the states or Europe.
