The Most Intriguing Story....

As I am typing this post I couldn’t help but wonder of what my husband said this morning. This is about my husband’s friend at work, they work together for more than 15 years. That makes them a good friends because they talked a lot according to my husband. Anyway, his friend was married to a Filipina many years ago when he was in the Military at air force base Clark in the Philippines. I said many years ago because he was in the Philippines when he was in his late 20`s and now (I’m assuming he is in his mid 50`s). During the time he was serving in the military he met a Filipina lady and married her (which is his 2nd married) and have a son. The situation back then was critical, and he was concerned his family’s safety. He brought his family here in the US because that’s the only way he could keep them safe. He also bought a new house for his wife own comfort and got everything she needed before he flew back to Philippines, so he said...

To make the story short, their marriage didn’t lasted that long because more than a year later when his wife and son arrived in the US, his wife found and fell inlove with another man. She was having an affairs while he was away, and it took him awhile before he find out the truth. So he divorced her immediately and she married her lover afterwards. He was devastated but there is no way he could keep her because of her infidelity. He let her go and blame himself most part of the situation because he was away and couldn’t make her happy. He is not a bitter man although his 2nd married turned ashtray. But he was hurt because of his wife betrayal, and who wouldn’t if you think the person can be trusted?

I was stunned and speechless after my husband told the story. Come on, the woman doesn’t have a loyalty and courtesy at least wait the husband to come home, and divorce him first, rather than having an affair to satisfy her needs? But I guess he made her way too comfortable eh? There is no doubt she is selfish and that’s all I’m going to say! And you know what? despite all what has happened, he never stop talking about Philippines. He loves to eat our food, the hardship he’d experienced those time it made him realized how grateful he was to stay alive, he said. In fact he asked my husband if I could cook him some Filipino food, especially adobo! Well, I have a soft spot, so I cooked adobo this afternoon for my husband and for his friend. I also packed some of my Puto (Steamed White Cake) for my husband’s friend. According to my husband, the guy eats all Filipino foods (except BALOT), grin :)!

Kaluoy pod. You can never tell if the woman is serious or has plans herself. Indeed dili ta ka ingun nga tanan pinay diri loyal and submissive, some are just users. I felt bad to your husband's friend he married a woman who took advantage of him.

Your story was indeed intriguing. My husband's ex-wife is a Filipina. It's a long story about her and my husband.

Now, my husband is married to a Filipina (again) and that's ME! hehehe

Hello ladies, Thanks for the comments on this post. The story its quite long, so I`d tried to make it short the best I could but it is still long. gipang short cut nalang gani nako ang story jud and that`s the best I could do. Btaw looy jud ang guy pero he didnt hold grudge against sa iya ex-wife, Happy nalang daw cya na naa daw cyay good son and good communication with him. daun naa napod cyay grandson kono karon so thats all that matter to him daw kay dli na daw siya mo looking back the past. The damage it`s done!

naa pud koy nakaila na kano iya wife before pinay pud pero divorce na sila karon. ngita siya lain pinay. dili sad ta mag judge sa pinay kay ang ato na dungog sa side ra man sa laki. so basi naay rason lain ang bae kun ngano ngita siya lain aside sa layo ang laki. ky ang pinay di baya basta basta mobiya kung wla gyuy laom na reason.
