What a truly great experience

I want to thank AFA for running such a professional organization. They made it possible for a serious guy like me to find a wife in the beautiful Philippine Islands. How I won her heart is still a mystery to me, but I am elated with the results. What an adventure life holds for those who are willing to take that first step to a truly happy life.

It was fun in Davao

When I first searching I wasn't about the organization, whether it was legit or not so what I did was call their main office in Cebu and Davao and called them to make sure that they had offices there. Everything they show in the videos is very real. The pictures you see of the ladies and the socials is all legit. Then I decided to go on a Davao tour. For the guys I recommend you to go on the Davao Tour and find somebody special.

I found out about AFA on the internet…

I found out about AFA on the internet and then I checked different sources and it was the best. The socials they put on is the best way to find the woman you're looking for. I'm very happy because I found somebody special at the social. I appreciate the staff and agency.

Their events are like speed dating

I watched their tour videos and it seemed like a lot of fun. And after experiencing it for myself, they definitely delivered. I would highly recommend this to anybody to definitely go with AFA because they are the industry leaders. The socials were great, with lots of activities and just a fun time. I'm glad I came. Anybody at home that's just sending the letters I would tell them to stop, get off the sofa and take the trip.

A foreign affair delivers what they say

You can do what's called the socials only. You go to the social and you meet all the women, you exchange contact information. If you want to just do the social, it's something that you can certainly do. If a latin tour is what you want just fly down, use your miles, and go to a social or two. You can do that, and it's relatively inexpensive

I met my true love at the Cebu Tour

I met my true love at the Cebu Tour. We just hit it off from the beginning that I didn't want to go to the second social night because we knew that we were for each other. Before the whole tour was over I bought a ring and proposed to her. It was surreal and I'm glad I went with my decision to join the tour. I would recommend this to any single guy. I already told my friends about it

You might NOT be getting what you paid for

The following review relates to my experience across mid-December 2024 to mid-January 2025. This is in regards to the dating profiles (and communication experience) and does not speak for their tours side of the business, which I have not experienced.
I should mentioned that I signed up to a-foreign-affair.com with them also using the web addresses of a-foreign-affair.net and loveme.com

Back in mid-December I started googling "mail order brides" just out of boredom to see what the International Dating scene was like (after watching a documentary on it). All the sites seemed too good to be true. Every woman was model quality. On a normal dating website, you have your ten out of tens, right down to the... well... you get the picture.

I then came across the "Agent Nesty" Youtube channel and her video where she claims she went through training for these mail order bride websites, and how she could have chosen to be a model and/or letter writer on these sites. The aim being to keep the letter chain going as long as possible, as each letter costs the guys to send and receive.

So, with a small budget (a couple of hundred dollars), I took on a one month experiment.

I first looked at the A Foreign Affair website(s) and found the perfect woman to contact. Yevheniia, Profile Number 219730. 21 years old, red head (and I love red heads), model (like they all seem to be!), born in Ukraine, but at that moment, based in Berlin.

I did both a google search of her name and image search. The name "Yevheniia" checked out with a Facebook page, but modelling, her professional name was Zhenya Foxx.

I also discovered another three sites had her profile. Two with "Yevheniia" and one with "Evgenia".

Now, instead of starting communication with her at A Foreign Affair to begin with, I started at the GoldenBride website, where she had a video on her profile saying she was on that site - profile ID number 926136 (note - GoldenBride is not affiliated with A Foreign Affair).

I emailed her back and forth for more than a week. Twice in those conversations you could tell a 'third party' was trying to get me to email (which costs credits) more than once a day, as they were a bit more seductive in nature, and didn't match the following conversation we had. Plus, all emails had two pictures from her. Who sends two pictures with every message on a normal dating site?!

Anyway, before contacting her on A Foreign Affair, I asked her to do a simple thing to prove it was her. I requested she send a picture of herself touching her nose with her left index finger. She laughed it off in her next message, but never did it, sending two other photos which could easily be found on her Instagram.

So, I moved my communication to A Foreign Affair to see if this "Yevheniia" was the same person there. I asked in my message two questions, based on what we had discussed at GoldenBride, to see if it was the same person (a favourite sports team, and favourite song).

Now, I do admit, I was shocked that she answered both questions correctly, and signed off the message with the name "Evgenia" (which she also used at the other site, instead of the publicly listed Yevheniia).

In her few messages on A Foreign Affair, she would always attached the maximum five photos, which of course you have to pay extra to see. Again, in normal dating, who attaches photos to every message?!

After more than a month of talking (when combining both sites), I thought I'd put her to the ultimate test - I asked her when would be the best time to arrange a video chat, which you can do via that website at a fee to the guy. I asked to her name any time or any days that suited her, and I'd work around that.

Surprise, surprise, she responded she was too "busy" to do a video call right now (not even a "can we try in a few weeks" suggestion).

It is fair to assume based on the interactions I've had, combined with the information from the Agent Nesty youtube video", that the model "Zhenya Foxx" has sold her image (and done a promotional video) to international dating websites, and someone else is responding as her "letter writer" on these sites.

It is fair to assume, based on only wanting to write, and the maximum amount of (Instagram sourced) images being included with each message (costing about $23US each time to open) that the "letter writer" on A Foreign Affair (and other international dating websites) is getting a financial kick-back for each communication.

Again, I cannot and do not speak for the touring services provided by A Foreign Affair as I've not experienced them.
However, when it comes to the dating website aspect, there are SERIOUS RED FLAGS and you might NOT be getting what you paid for.

I saw my fiancee for the first time at…

I saw my fiancee for the first time at the second social. She came in real late. I went over and tried to talk to her and she ignored me. So I went around and talked to the other ladies. Later, I got the chance to ask her for a date. She said yes and the rest was history. We had a lot of fun, went on our first date to the beach in Cebu and had a nice lunch and talked. Now I've got a Filipina fiancee and an entire new family.
