I want to backpack/ride a dirtbike in the countryside/beaches and not be in the city at all, but then I feel like I risk not meeting any girls because I look like a fucking backpacker Lol.

I paid 720 bucks for a 1 week roundtrip. I am going all over the place so I am not just there for the girls lol. You could try to find a girl that is willing to go with you. I am confident there are plenty of girls that will go to different locations and hike around places like Chocolate Hills. But the question would be if the girl you would take is willing to pay herself on these trips or would you have to pay for her.

RE: The Philippines thread
. . .just a comment that in the thrashy international circles i.e. mostly locals and low budget travellers, some of the girls do actively throw themselves at backpacker-looking guys, if they seem anglosaxon or nordic. . . No game required indeed.

I look like a short mediterranean type going for a more smooth style ; I've had this type of girls drop me mid-conversation to go approach some haggard-looking drunk guy in cargo shorts, sandals and baggy t-shirt that had just stumbled in.

I digress but often this type of girls hate my guts. It's like, unlike European girls, they don't "get" what I'm trying to sell. Lol
My unapologetic, opinionated and uncooperative style probably doesn't help either, even when it's mostly tongue-in-cheek. The "push" part of push-pull falls on them like the Hiroshima bomb. I often catch some locals giving me angry stares from afar but that's entering social circle drama territory. . .

Anyway, I've even seen these types take 50+ year olds and/or downright lame fat guys dressed like stereotypical backpackers as boyfriends. Not that you necessarily have to be like that but just saying. . .

Also, selfishly, its nice to hear anglo saxon men are popular.

RE: The Philippines thread
AsiaBaller, what you saw is mostly true.

The typical Asian immaturity is made worse here by the cultural void; pretty much like foreign oppression stunted their own natural development and at the same time left them psychologically messed up for generations. . .


But there's two problems :

First, if it was for hypergamy alone, I'd be doing great with the lower class girls, but as I just said, it's worse. The app where I have over 9000 likes and 0 meets is called Tan-Tan and it's a shithole like DIA (which I deleted after a couple days). I still get a bunch of matches per swiping session but not yet a minimally coherent conversation.
Instead, the girls I've banged so far are from Tinder and Bumble, where I only get a few new matches per week. There the conversion rate from 1st date to sex was 100%.
. . .and those and almost any other pulls I've managed, followed a basic structure of progress from basic polite conversation, to push-pull/banter to venue changes and deep-diving. As awkward as I may be. . .
In other words, because gold-digging/hypergamy is partial we are all already operating in a gray area that includes some "game" needed to maneuver. Better or worse. . .

Second, it may be a waste of time to come here for the girls, maybe. . . probably. . . But I'm stuck for a couple years for career reasons and already banging 5s and 6s. So going somewhere else is out of question, the hand, going gay, ladyboys, animals on the street, priesthood, that's all out of question. The only option is to try to figure out how can I improve what I'm already doing. . .

RE: The Philippines thread
^ The girls who have hang out in foreigner social circles, are on Tinder, date white guys or go to Cove/BGC/Poblacion bars are the most convenient, most westernised so easiest to get on with and have a much higher proportion of hot ones but still only account for 1% of the 8 million females in Metro Manila.

If you're having a hard time with them, go for the other 99% of girls who have no experience of that kind of thing and you'll have some exotic value to. As long as you are at least as attractive as a small ugly Filipino guy in a mouldy t shirt and beat up flip flops earning 10k pesos a month whilst having an affair with their cousin then you'll be fine.

How did you manage to get a job working in Manila? That's something that a lot of people here would love to do and find very difficult whilst they find the girls easy. If you can help them out with advice for that then people will be much more willing to give advice on the girls.

Lol. . .ok. . .
I'll rephrase :

With exceptions, the only girls I seem to get along with is a subset of the westernized girls - more "professional" side. Looks in the 5-6 range.
Either way, I haven't seen many above 7.
I'm interested in knowing what are the good venues.

RE: The Philippines thread
This thread is cracking me up. All the talk about the Phils being done. It's not. Sure there has been a decline in Makati/BGC. I mean, those places are practically 1st world. Get out of the cities beyond Cebu even. I follow girls I tindered in the cities on instagram. I see them posting pics at hotels I know they can't afford unless they are riding the carousel. There are a million islands where you will be greeted with rock star status. But hey, if you want your high speed internet and burger delivery then you deserve the Makati carousel riders.

RE: The Philippines thread
This country has such a weird influence on middle-aged men. Almost cultish. Philippines has to be candy corn and rainbows and lily pads andthe moment you try and have a discussion about it you're a bad guy. It's almost sickening especially coming from guys who spent a month there and know absolutely nothing.

Maine and Canadian lobsters are the same animal. Prove me wrong.

There are as many (or more) guys saying there's nothing good about the place as there are saying there's nothing bad about it. How about some nuance? There are some gutter sluts and some high quality women but most fall somewhere between. We can disagree about the percentages in each category, but not the existence of those categories.

Part of the reason for rose colored glasses is that even some of the most deceitful Filipina tramps possess a sweetness that is never seen in western low class whores.

Whats weirder, the guy who spends all his time talking about something he hates, or the guy talking about something he simply enjoys?

white god factor is dead in most SEA... maybe still possible in provinces.. you can still score 5s and 6s. you will not lay those 7s and 8s easy like before..game and looks required.

RE: The Philippines thread
All this is I can confirm. . .
The typical pinoy social circle is a dump; it's like hanging out with nerdy middle school kids or worse. . .
The girls who are specifically banging expats are riding the carousel; the one you bang today will bang a skinny 19 year old backpacker next weekend and some obese old guy the weekend after.

I add : The most obvious social circles for foreigners are thrash; a sausage fest with a few chubby girls and maybe one 6 or 7. Even if I pull that 6 after dealing with insufferable cockblocking/amoging (which I did, which I do) that means I'm leaving behind at least a couple dozen guys that are most likely not get any that night (and making enemies in the process; having them come amog me even harder next time). That's not my idea of "easy".

What remains then?
- To go roll solo in specific clubs? Which ones?
- To slowly establish yourself in more exclusive social circles? . . .which I'm doing but for other reasons.

Quote:Why has DIA became so bad now?

Supply/demand... Sexual attraction is about value. Sexual market value in a sexual market place. Value in a market place is determined by supply and demand.
This thread alone has over 2.3 million views, the most viewed thread on the entire forum, by a huge margin.

1. Add to that all other forums, blogs and vlogs about online dating in Philippines, in the West and Korea, and you got the perfect storm on the demand side.
2. Add to that the fact that Filipinos want to leave their country and beauty is a ticket out, and you got the perfect storm on the supply side.

I can get 8+ girls in other countries by leveraging daygame. I can't get much above 6-7 in Manila now cause I see like 1 girl a week I'd rate. I've had a hot and smart one for a few months now, so keeping her around, cause it's either quantity or quality here now.

I will caveat that I think getting down with the locals is the one way to still make it happen. Which I assume is why BB still loves it. That requires a certain personality in this country though. I can do the locals thing in Latin America, but I can't do it here... pinoys are just on a completely different wavelength from most Westerners. I would assume guys who enjoy hanging with Filipino social circles and even Filipino males are ESFP or similar on the Myers-Briggs.

I could make a magazine style quiz: "Is Philippines the right country for you? Take this simple test".

1. Not too fussy about looks OR leans towards ESFP
2. Tolerant of 3rd world bullshit OR have a high budget for BGC living.

Tick these boxes? Then I would say Philippines will be your paradise.
I like BGC but I'm an INTJ and fussy about looks so I finally set my date... leaving here in 2 months.

YEMV.

RE: The Philippines thread
I will put this here to try and get some advice from the pros. I’ve read and searched and got some tips from this forum, but I’m coming up largely empty here this time.


I’ve been in Makati for 10 days and I have 2 notches.

I can’t figure out what is happening. I’m working Filipino Cupid and Tinder hard and other than the easy responses, I’m getting a lot of American style attitude and bitch shields.

The White God syndrome has worn off. I feel like these broads are gaming me.

Any advice? What am I doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong. Makati is an oversaturated trash heap compared to Mandaluyong or QC. Only banged one girl from Makati during my stay.

QC ain't bad actually but it's local as hell with piss poor food options and the annoying looky-loo locals who lose their minds when you step into SM North or Trinoma which is why expats hate it. It wears on you especially since good condos in QC are the same price as in Makati. QC does have some nifty little shops and you are bound to rack up some more notches than staying at Gramercy (imo).

But yeah like Eddie said you need to be ultra sociable and talk to those people via the local route if you want to access quality. But being an introvert with a strong bs detector I can't stand to be around them. They are simply too irrational and dysfunctional and have incredibly fake personalities. They also won't hesitate to screw you over. The entire society operates in bad faith around foreigners especially so just sit in your condo, pick off the easy notches and leave them to their devices.

Maine and Canadian lobsters are the same animal. Prove me wrong.

I'll echo Il Bersagliere even though he tends to shit on the PH every chance he gets. You're on par for Makati/Manila. I didn't believe it until I got here myself.

Here's a tip though: cut back on the online stuff and go to clubs. If you present well, you will do better. Revel, Valkyrie, Okada etc.

As others have said, try leaving Manila. Try a smaller town.

Good. . . what do you think of Revel?
The two times I was there I felt I would have had to break into a mixed group in order to approach (and probably get kicked out). I didn't get eye contact or any IOIs.
. . .random drunk gay guys hitting on me and a fat girl that came to discuss my food when I was out in the Island eating. Lol
I suck at cold approaching so feel free to tell me this is how the "normal" difficulty level should feel.
