Hi Greg,
Paul's advise is good and like Paul, my wife is only separated by 11
yrs. That is hard for most men when u have 18 to 25 yr olds asking to
meet u, smiling at u as they pass your table . . . So other than
meeting her Mom, we set our agenda.
I met Anna on filipina heart, a dating site. I had a strick set of
guide lines, one of which was that the women who contacted me had to
be at least 37, not many payed attention to this one. But being as my
eldest is 28, young women do not appeal to me, except to have a look
see as they walk by. Considering the fact that many forty yr olds look
half their age and servility still rules, and age still has it's
perks, it's not hard to see why so many of us fell in love with our
filipinas.
The charm and beauty of the country, people, and culture is a slice
of heaven.
Good luck
Joe

> Hi Greg,
> Chaperoned dating is not as popular as it used to be but still is
practiced in some families. Mostly it's with the younger kids.
> I seriously doubt it would be expected unless you were dating
someone half your age. I met my wife through mutual friends.
> She was 32 and I was 40 at the time. We were not chaperoned.
>
> I would suggest you take your next vacation over here and experience
the culture and beauty of the Philippines. If you happen to head down
to Iloilo, I have a real sweetheart of a cousin that is about your age
and would be happy to make introductions. Good luck.
