ive heard that if your young white guy and you visit manila everywhere you go its all eyes on you is this true

Answer 1

Not quite. But this might be true in the far-flung areas.

Filipinos will easily think that you are an actor, cuz most actors and actresses in the Philippines are part-White American or part-Spanish (some others are pure American, Spanish, or Latino).

Plus, Most brown-skinned Filipinos aim to look like their actors - white and Caucasian. In the Philippines, whether you are a boy or a girl, if you look Caucasian, you are the superstar - you are really liked, and you easily become the most popular in school. Yeah, it's true. Being more European and less Asian in facial features is cool in the Philippines. Being beautiful is a fad here.

About 3.6% of all Filipinos are Spanish Mestizo and an estimated 2% are mixed White American-Filipino.

Also, there are about 170,000 Americans in Manila (overwhelmingly White) only . Philippines has the largest number of American citizens outside of U.S. So the adage that "you will be stared upon" is absurd.

Also, most city people will not care to stare at an American, cuz all city-dwelling Filipinos have practically mixed blood (usually Spanish/American/Chinese, or to a lesser degree, Japanese/Indian/Iranian).

Answer 2

The best way to get back your ex is https://tr.im/djSqQ

Here's the hard part: Pretend she never existed, like it was all a dream, don't call her, that will make you the smaller person, be the bigger person since you deserve better, what she did to you on Valentines Day was immature, especially after dating for four years. This person wasted allot of your time and through it out the window. Go out tonight, even it it is only yourself, don't drink and call or feel sorry for yourself, this will only cause you embarrassment! I know your hurting..This will eventually will go away in time. Today is not a good day for you and your emotions are spinning all over the place.

Please, whatever you do, don't answer her calls and don't call her. If she keeps calling, which she pro bally won't, don't return her call for 5 days. Make her sweat and DO Not get back together right away if you discuss this in 5 days. Tell her since she Broke up with you, you have done allot of thinking, and had the taste of "being single again" and you would like more time being "friends" for now, so you are sure you are making the right decision. Remember "She decided she didn't want to be with you" so the door is open for you to get out and see what you have been missing for four years. You honestly need to do this for yourself.

She doesn't know, but what she did was give you the best valentines day present you will ever get! A new start and a new beginning, use it to your advantage. You will look back on this and Thank God this happened now instead of 4 more wasted years of YOUR life. Today does suck, stay Strong and I promise you your life is going to be so much more exciting and you are going to be happy. If you continue to call and call her, she will think of you as needy and won't want you. She is going to rethink what she did to you today and will be hurt, if you act like you could care less. Girls always want the ones they can't have. That is who you are now to her. Let her suffer,realizing what a mistake she made. This will drive her crazy. Right now she is on cloud 9 thinking you will take her back, OH, is she stupid!

Your life isn't ruined, hers is..She lost someone special, and gave you a gift to let to live life and find someone you deserve. You are not getting back at her, your teaching her what an idiot she is and what she lost and what you gained without her. SO when You eventually talk to her, tell her thank you for what she did...
She will be hurt and you will be happy!

Answer 3

I am white and it all depends where to you are. In Makati or the like, nobody will notice you. When I am any other place (which is most of the time) I get stared at A LOT. Quiapo, Baclaran, Tondo, and even Quezon City will create the stares for me. Also anytime I am on a jeepney. You really do get used to it and stop noticing after a week or so. Nobody says anything to me except kids that want to know my name, the tricycle guys that want to tease me, and the young teens that want to talk shite (i.e., whats your name? Can I kiss you? Can I have your nose?).

Answer 4

It's true that you will be stared at no matter where and what gender you are. It might be more obvious in a province where people are not exposed to foreigners all the time, as supposed to the city. If you are planning on visiting the Philippines anytime soon and you are caucasian, and it is obvious; don't worry the people are harmless, they are just curious. In fact revel in it cause you will not get the same attention in the states:)

Answer 5

I've been to philippines once. And i'm going again.
I didn't stay at Manila. But i arrived there. yes people spotted me immediately and looked...stared?...well at the international airport..not really, they probably see all kinds of people around.

They looked at me in the city, but it seemed respectful. I liked it. But my (ex..)girlfriend told me she did not (she's filipino).

But i stayed most of the time in a village province. They definately stared at me there. And i loved it. They are very nice people. They were interested in me. No on but of filipino blood was in that village. So i was looked at and, i think, respected too. Some spoke English to me, and when i walked around alone in the village...i literally made every family on the whole long street come out of their houses and sit by their doors and look at me. I enjoyed looking at them back. Everything was peaceful and interesting. As long as you are kind, they will love you. the school children/teenagers were walking to school and looking too. The young girls seemed very shy to look or talk, just giggle with their friends. The males are more brave to come up to you, and like having their photo taken.

Everything is different in the city though.

Answer 6

depends on where you're at. If you're in the City then its no big deal. Coz there are lots of "mestizos" and mestizas" there.

Lol, Iam an Asian working in a redneck State. But they dont stare at me or anything. Probably because I dont look like your typical Asian... or the people here are polite and good.

Get a tan try to blend in a bit, Business people in Manila won't even notice that you are white, its the street people that will.

Answer 7

not necessarily, depends on where you're at. If you're in makati or in some other business district. White guys or foreigners for that matter are common because many expats live there.

if you're in some exotic resort like boracay and palawan it's common too.

but if you're in a squatter's area or some other "non-tourist friendly place" eyes will be on you. it's because people are wondering why a foreigner would be there.

but if anywhere you go, people are still looking at you it's because you're cute....hey who wouldn't stare at a cute guy?

Answer 8

Just like a young white girl in Mexico

Answer 9

Want to know how to get your ex back? Change yourself. Don't worry about changing other people, worry about changing yourself. Go to https://tr.im/NIb9u

Once you do that then you can start to worry about getting back together with your ex, other wise you will find that you are fighting about all the same things and getting no where. Do what it takes and I promise things will work out in your favor.

The funny thing is I came to the realization that I had to change a little too late. After I was kicked out and after I was about to lose the only things that truly mattered to me - her love. A funny thing happens when we truly love someone and lose them. We do what ever it takes to get them back. For me I had to drop bad habits that had caused not only our relationship to sour but practically every other relationship I had had in the past. Not only with women, but with friends, co-workers, family, you name it.

Which is why I say to you as my ex at the time said to me, the only thing you can do is change yourself. Work on yourself and improve on the person that you already are. Drop the negative things in your life that don't belong there and you will see all of your relationships start to take off to new heights.
