Love Without Borders: The Inspiring Story of an American-Filipina Couple Overcoming Age Stereotypes

Love has no limits, that’s what they say, and a couple of an American and a Filipina who are 42 years apart is a faithful example of this. Today, for overcoming stereotypes around romantic relationships and having been married for seven years, they are going around the world.

Jackie, a 28-year-old woman, met the love of her life on a trip to the Philippines, her homeland, after being away from it for several years. David, 70, contacted her in a dating chat, as is now usual. Both, due to the ‘click’ they made, decided to give themselves a chance.

In an interview with Love Don’t Judge, a YouTube channel, David told what led him to write to Jackie to meet in a cafeteria and see each other.

“We met when I was in the Philippines. She was using a dating site. One day I saw her profile, I practically jumped out of my chair. I was so impressed by what I saw, ”he said, who at that time, like his beloved, was visiting the South Asian country.

As for Jackie, she said that when she received David’s invitation, the last thing she did was look at his photos.

“I didn’t check your profile. I had no idea what she looked like and the date was fun. I could tell he was a gentleman and he was very nice,” the Filipina woman, who also uploads content on TikTok to post details of her love life with Jackie, said in the interview.

If the first meeting between the two was strange, much more the fact that they made the decision to get married almost immediately.

As for David, who was most concerned about what they would say and, especially, about the reaction of those close to Jackie, today I consider that age is what least defines them as a relationship.

“If two people love each other and want to spend their lives together, age is just a number,” he said, facing those who, on social networks, say that he looks like her grandfather.

In Colombia there is also a relationship where age does not matter

Will there be a reconciliation between Jim Velásquez and Alina Lozano, a couple who are 31 years old? The actor and content creator surprised his followers on Facebook with a video in which he asks his ex-girlfriend, actress Alina Lozano, with whom he had a relationship for several months, for a second chance.

Alina was the one who decided to end the relationship. In a video posted on Facebook, the actress confirmed her breakup with Velásquez and assured that she did it for her peace of mind and mental health.

“I have to admit that I am super affected. This relationship started publicly, it ends publicly, I told him. We had wonderful moments, but I feel like the moment we went public with the relationship, a lot happened,” he said.

According to Alina, she was the one who decided to leave, since the relationship began to be affected by an ex-girlfriend of Jim.
