Advice on Marriage/Situation At HAnd

Once your wife enters the USA and seeks perm res status she will not be leaving the USA for a couple of years, and it will be best for future travel if she becomes a US citizen ASAP and then applies for dual citizenship.  It would be helpful if you could start looking for Fil Am groups in your area right now so when your wife finally arrives there will be people available who know her language and culture.  It would also be a learning experience for you.

Parting the Red sea is one thing but even our good lord almighty is not has skilled as a Filipino lady at making men part with their hard earned cash.

“whoa Nelly”

Seems like the guy is ignoring any advice.  Why did he bother to even ask?

Dear Mr. Greenlee,

On the advice of Judge Judy I have to impeach all the statements you have made. Of course I owe you an explanation why. When Judge Judy catches somebody in a fib, their whole testimony is  disallowed.

I asked you how you met this lady and you replied through friends. But I have to quote you on posting #16 you said you met her on Filipinocupid.com and have talked to more than 100 ladies.

So I can assume correctly that you were misleading on other things you have claimed.

Good Luck Billy Boy.

Agree and we already went through the love, lust, infatuation and clutching at straws scenarios,,,,, it appears the church will save the day and turn water into wine, 12 months on? Each to their own but have to agree with you moonunit.
The proof of the pie will be in the eating.

Boots on the ground, research and research very well, OMO but the only way to taste the flavours, get your hands dirty is to commit to time well spent in this country. I did that with work and visits before I met my better half, 6 or 8 months chatting online then met, in Manila,,,,,,,, 8 + years on we are still together but there were others in toe before a decision to meet,,,,,,,, I think I chose the best of a bad bunch and don't to date regret. William, you need to somehow come here, meet her son (do you really have any idea if he has CP or a scam) and her family with eyes wide open, see the Philippines, the culture and what will potentially come back to the US.

We have all given our 2 bobs worth on the OP's ask for suggestions/advice and to date? An emotional loving defence of a lady he has only spoken to for 2 or 3 months, will somehow marry and import to the US, sorry to be/feel cynical William but for me that's a mail order bride. The Lord or who ever you follow will make it all ok......... after raising Lazarus from the dead.

Perhaps time for realism?

OMO.

Cheers, Steve.

Hello To All:

Thanks for your advice. I understand and appreciate it. Love To All..

Hello To All:

Yes my Dear Brother you are correct. We had met earlier through a Past Military Friend. Briefly. No interest. Seemingly. Of course I was not looking. Then later by Chance we met as you say I said. All is well. And of course I Love Judge Judy. Right. You can always smell a rat. You know. The look and the smell. So. Therefore. My Testimony is True and correct. Time will deliver the True verdict and I will not let my Brothers down. I will Testify as I travel down this road. As I have time. Love To All..

Hello To All:

Thanks. My Dear Friend I have no cash. I made my First Million before I was 40 years old. It all vanished in one year. The last commercial lot I owned I gave to a Friend. I have a Good Heart/I have Bread to eat/I have Shelter/Auto to drive/Enjoying Life is my biggest asset. Breath....Love To All..

Hello To All:

One thing to add. I left out. My Initial Statement was not 100 in all details. So. I read what you said. I have been openly looking for 3 years. All type Ladies. So about 500 or so. About 40 Local. 200 or so in the US. The rest Worldwide. Many in person. For me. What I was listening for I have not heard until I met her. I mean People still Speak from their Heart and are True. Right. Or are we all lost. Maybe we are. And I am The Hopeless Fool Sade sings about in "Soldier Of Love". Lead me to the Firing Squad or Not. Time will tell the Tale for all to see. Love To All..

Hello To All:

haha. Thanks. She has Horses/Cows/Chickens/Dogs/Etc. So thanks. Very Nice. Love To All..

Hello To All:

I Love You Brother. Thanks. I listen. Closely. Then I live or die by my choices. So. Come on Moon. Send me some Love. Love To All..

Hello To All:

I will be around. This is new to me. I am not Computer or Digitally Socially enabled. Generally unless really motivated. Love To All..

Hello To All:

I am not moving to the Phillipines. I am leaving No Stone unturned. Maybe she wants my Speakers to my Stereo. They are Nice. I am becoming suspicious. She is looking for something to get. Right. Love To All..

Wow, after all that you sound like many Filipinos I have met over my many years here. Perhaps a kind moderator could see if your IP address is in the States.

There is no realism nor substance to your posts and an obvious inability to address the questions raised and suggestions offered by members that you initially sought help/ideas from.

Good Luck.

Cheers, Steve.

Yup well said...The proof of the pie will be in the eating...& not in the buying/hoping/investing/requesting info/feeling parts...so go ahead & taste it...& If it tastes bad don't say you were not warned.
From a Soldier of fortune & not love.

Hello To All:

Thanks for real. For your comments. Yes I am going to go to there. Yes I am going to meet her Parents. (haha Meet The Parents) movie. Filipino Version. Her Granny and all the rest. As Nancy Pelosi says. I understand your concern and the seemingly unconcern I have. Relax. Eyes Wide Open. Right. All hands on deck. Yes. My Friend her Son was great for One Year and developed a Serious Condition that led to his CP. As I said. If my Son was a 10. He would be a four. I have met them all on live video. I know. They could all be imposters. I know. When I go they could tie me up in the Hog pen down from their house and demand a ransom for my return. If they do. I will post on here and all please help me escape. I understand the Real Concerns you have. Thank you. I will listen and continue to Self Check from Life Long friends who know me well. Thanks Steve. Yes Jesus did raise the Dead. Actually at this Moment he sits at The Right Hand of the Father. Regardless of what I think or believe. Or what you believe. Right. Also great news. We all will find out one day. I understand all you say. But. I am not exactly sure of what Mail Order Bride is. But I will google it later when I have time. I do not have any Money to Pay the Mailman. Zero. Any cost involved we will split. To get here. Travel for me and her. Split. She agrees to pay and has her own money. Already agreed. I mean I have to do something right. I am not a Ruler or King. Just a Simple Man. Living on Earth. Time will tell the tale.  Maybe it will never happen. Maybe it will. Maybe I am a Fool. Maybe she is a Imposter. Who would say or do anything to come to US. Maybe I am Mentally Off. Maybe she is plotting now to come here and steal my Speakers and LPS. Only thing I like. Really. Maybe her Family is involved and they are all Laughing at what a Stupid American I am. Maybe she is not a Real Filipino. But just acting like it. Maybe she is older just pretending to be younger. Maybe she is not a Teacher and her school is a Fake. Classrooms and all. Maybe her Credentials on Linken.com are fake as well. Maybe the house she lives in also is fake and she really lives in a very nice plush resort area. Maybe she does not drive a motorcycle to work or as they call it. A two wheeler. Maybe she is really a Man. Maybe she is not the Oldest Child of a Poultry Farmer and using this as a Pretense to get my Speakers. Maybe she is just a club worker. Laughing it up with the others. I am becoming more and more interested in her Real Intentions. I have decided to hire a Private Investigator. Immediately. Phill. P.I. I will get to the bottom of  this. Of Course. (Maybe She is Honest. Maybe her intentions are True} Probably Not Though. I will start a more thorough investigation. My EX-Father In Law is a Sitting Senator. For real. No Shit. I will Contact Mitch. As Michael Savage calls him. The Gobbler. He will help me. He has a Far Reaching hand. Plus he has experience. Once I proof they are all false tellers of Tall Love Tales. I will have them arrested. I will Post their Pictures on here to help root out this type of terror. On us hard working American Men. Thanks everyone. Love To All..

Hello To All:

Thanks. Love To All..

Hello To All:

Thanks Big Pearl. Not sure what meant about IP address. I am not a Computer Guy. At all. But good at many other endeavors. I feel you. Love To All..

Hello To All:

Thanks Big Pearl of your analysis of my comments. Perhaps I am taking all things serious and not posting on here. I must say I do appreciate your candor. But through a few comments on a Website my Brother we know little of each other. But. This is more fun than anything. So. Continue to advise as you please. And of course I really do appreciate everything. Love To All..

Simple men should just stay at home & not try and venture into a life beyond his means, that would just be asking for more trouble.

Hey William,

I've solved all your problems for you, just contact "TLC" The Learning Channel. They have a program called 90 Day Fiance, you would be a great fit.

Or maybe contact the Discovery Channel, You and your friend could be on "Naked and Afraid".

Does not explain how you will get to the Philippines and how you will finance the trip, pay for your wife's visa, pay to get her into the USA.  You need to save at least $10,000.  Bragging about being happy and poor will not cut it.

Yes. I doubt she will be allowed to enter USA in such economical situation (if no one else than TS guarantee.)
For a friend of mine it took  19 months and many turns with the Immigration before he got aproval to get his gf into Sweden, although he clearly has money enough to support her. And I guess it's harder to get someone into USA than into Sweden.

A Wise man learns from the mistakes of others.........

I didn't need to look at the links moonunit, no stomach for that at the moment, maybe another time but you are correct as far as wise men,,,,,,, why then do wise men not learn from their own mistakes let alone wisdom from others?
We all battle on, wise or dim.

Cheers, Steve.

What's the purpose of the Lawyer? To sue Filipino Cupid? or maybe to stop

You are quicker than myself Bob, while I was procrastinating and rereading, I was wondering how someone that works 16 hours a day and doesn't watch television even knew Dr. Phil existed,,,, perhaps he can prescribe a few new pills for the OP.
Honestly William? I'm not sure if or no you are trying to get your post numbers up on this site,,,,,,, whether your'e a Yank or a subtle player/scammer, perhaps others but it is considered polite when replying, to address the the person/contributor so plebeians such as myself can keep up.
Yes, the lawyer is an interesting one now, love, trust and faith in the red sea parting for the newly weds, Lawyer is plan B? For you or her?

You mentioned early that you will let your betrothed read/be part of all these posts,,,,, is she involved and what are her thoughts?
My apologies William for being a lot forward, an Aussie trait.

Cheers, Steve.

PPPPPPPS Love to you also.

Wow I really got a little jolted as if I just had my own shock treatment (basis all the replies)...Now its 1% for vs 99% against motion...if that doesn't sum it up I don't know what else will.

I was just thinking, this is the most exciting thing that has happened all day,,,,,, then I remembered when we woke up, and we won't go there, on reflection the oysters for lunch came in at no 2 and my first JD yum is no 3. This is still interesting though.
Will it ever end?

Cheers Steve.

What a BS.
A wise man OF COURSE learn from own misstakes - if he ever make any      - and OF COURSE from others's wisdom. Although wise men can have other messure of what to be  counted as "wise". What stupid or average people find wise often aren't wise at all... As for instance it isn't wise to believe Filipinos know laws just because being Filipino...   
And I  have noticed few of Filipino business owners have basic business knowledge business owners are suppoused to have. Specialy in the business type I'm buying where I have found a big part of owners not having a clue about a very important part of handling, which make their production results are crap. Of course there are more among all such business owners who know, but I have found only two plus my business partner knowing and so many not knowing so I have lost count of them. Just during a bit looking during the last half year I have found 20+ not knowing,  houndreds since I noticed it first time - and got the business to buy such businesses and solve the problem this missing knowledge has made.
An other example of stupidity among suppoused to be clever people is the crazy overvaluing of the stock markets in e g Western Europe. And extra stupid in USA where Nasdaq index has gone up a lot during covid !!! when many businesses struggle or even go bankruptcy because of it. Then it isn't wise to pay double as much as before covid      in "average" as Nasdaq index show...
(Although such indexes aren't average, they are weighted, counting biger companies extra.)

You should have stopped at BS, but being as thick as some are, need to waffle on about totally unrelated rhetoric that the OP will laugh at, as I have.
The world economy on a marriage advice post?
Start a new thread and entertain yourself.
