Dealing with "Tampo"....no problem. I'll just find someone that wants to communicate like an adult.

[CarsonBoyd]

Here in the US we call it pouting and it is a sign of emotional immaturity. No thanks.

[Jason_The_Man]

I didn’t learn these valuable lessons until after my first marriage and a few relationships.

It’s amazing how not tolerating BS works wonders.

[bornahyard]

Dude you deserve a medal, a gold star or some recognition of distinction. Thank you.

My latina girlfriend did this to me once. Instead of being silent though she became very contentious and bitchy. It was a disagreement over something mundane actually while we were driving to a family get together. I turned the car around, drove her home, and left her. I told her I did not want my family to see me being disrespected by my girlfriend. A few days later she told me it felt like I had placed her in a "time out". She never did it again so apparently I passed her "shit test".

The last time my wife did this it killed our marriage. We are still together for now but something broke and I just don't care anymore. She gave me the silence treatment and I realized I am done with the games and her. Honestly the relationship is over. I just don't care for her anymore. The marriage is done, i just have to pay off a couple things and Iam out. Kids are grown and I'm not putting up with anything anymore. I owe no one nothing. I have done my part now it is time for me and my well-being and happiness

Never let your girlfriend stop you from finding your Wife

OMG: I married a Filipina woman nearly two years ago with the understanding and agreement that COMMUNICATION, COMMUNICATION, COMMUNICATION were the top priorities in our relationship. I definitely experienced TAMPO repeatedly and did not even realize that this was a common thing among Filipinas. Despite multiple sessions with a counselor and repeated promises to communicate I came to the conclusion that she essentially had broken the #1, #2, #3 priority in our relationship and that was the trigger for me to end it. Annulment in process.

It makes sense now. I'm in the states, this Filipina was very friendly, very new and always waved to me, everyone really and say hi. We talked a lot, then it happened. She stopped talking, waving and the hi, became nonexistent. We weren't even dating. We were coworkers and I only got yes and no because of the job responsibilities. Months went by and suddenly we were talking again. I knew she liked me, but I made it my thing not to date coworkers. Thank for the answers.😅

My lady tried that one day I told her to get her stuff and go home. She came back 30min later and apologized. I don't have time for this childish sh;t.

[alanguages]

Be careful what you tolerate. What you tolerate, you allow. What you allow continues. What you allow to continue becomes the standard.

[feloniousmonk]

When my woman does this to me, I pack my bags light, take a 3 to 5 day vacation without her, to allow her to adjust her attitude before I come back home. No calling, no texting, unless she intiates this. I don't even tell her where I am going or staying, unless she asks. If she says nothing is wrong, I am taking it at face value and I go do my thing until she gets right, in the head. I'm not going to stay in the doghouse or sleep on the couch when it's her problem, not mine.

[kimballinfidel]

I suffered through 5 years of this. Thank you for telling me there's a name for it

[JamesGreenier]

It’s called stonewalling here in the US. And that is why you need to date somebody for many years before you get married. In my seventh year of a relationship, my ex gf did this. She gave me the silent treatment for over a week. Needless to say, I broke up with her and she was shocked to learn that I was serious and moved out. Best decision I ever ever made.

[Mistamannfour]

Tampo appears to be the Filipino version of the Silent Treatment in our Western culture!

[Sidheavonney]

A guaranteed red flag. Run, don't walk, RUN

[dunix]

I'm a filipina and this is me when I was younger, but now I'm abit matured, being engaged to an American I guy, I don't do this anymore, I tell him directly, frankly but still with respect why I'm pissed off, and I still say sorry after, I cud say, the way I communicate this time is very different than before

[captnawty]

Awesome video and very informative. Until now, I have never heard of "TAMPO" and I find it very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
