This should be a book in itself. I’ve been doing the online dating thing since around 2003 back when it was really scary to meet someone on the Internet. These days, it’s the norm. If you’re looking to meet a Filipino girl, there are several sites that focus on this region such as PinoDating.com. I’ve met girls from both of these sites. DateInAsia is free, but they put ads on all the pages. It’s incredibly slow because the page has to refresh every time you do anything so that they can get credit for an advertisement page view. DateInAsia is ok, but I recommend PinoDating.com. It’s free to create a profile on FilipinoCupid and browse, but you have to buy a subscription in order to message anyone. When you do message someone, there is no latency (wait time) when you hit send. Their servers and messaging systems are very fast and almost immediate. If you’re trying to chat with three or four chicks at the same time, it’s no problem on PinoDating.
The other thing about PinoDating.com is that since it is a paid service, it weeds out a lot of the competition. Girls on DateInAsia get bombarded with messages and interests because anybody can chat on there for free. All the broke dicks, scam artists, and locals are trying to chat the girls. The girls don’t take the messages as serious. Now, if they know you actually paid money to be able to chat them, that carries a bit more weight. They know that a guy with a paid subscription is more serious and financially stable than some cheap asshole with his free profile on DateInAsia. Just my opinion.
Once you get your basic profile created, start to browse around. Begin by searching the age bracket that you’re interested in. This will allow you to get going, feel out the site, and understand how everything works. You can read my theory on what geographical locations of the Philippines you should consider and which ones you should avoid in a following chapter.
Browse for free until you get comfortable with the site. Once you get the hang of everything, it’s time to get serious. Put your money where your mouth is. Man up, buy a subscription, and start sending messages. You can’t score (no pun intended) unless you’re in the game. Unless you get a paid subscription, you’re doing nothing more than looking at pictures of pretty girls. You can do that on Facebook. For the price of taking an American chick out to dinner, you can connect with beautiful girls all day long for a few months.
