There’s a reason why 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days star Faith Gatoc Tulod forgave Loren Allen for repeatedly cheating on her when he was in the U.S. Faith is a 30-year-old ladyboy from the Philippines who met the 33-year-old Drag Queen Assistant Loren on a dating app. While Loren became Faith’s boyfriend on the day they started chatting, after they exchanged their “I love yous,” Loren never told Faith he wasn’t into monogamy. While Loren wanted a wife, specifically a trans woman to marry, he also expected to have an open marriage.

Loren continued sleeping with other people as he kept Faith thinking they were in a committed relationship. He never informed her that he was homeless in the U.S. and was broke despite working three jobs. He wanted to move to the Philippines and wanted to continue seeing other people while dating Faith. She wondered how he could say he loved her when he was sleeping with other people at least once a week. Loren assured Faith he was sorry he cheated on her and told her he would spend the rest of his life only with Faith.

Loren Is Faith’s First Boyfriend

Loren Had Been Single For 30 Years

Faith spoke about how her life as a ladyboy in the Philippines was tough. Even though she did not face discrimination at work, her country had strict laws and people couldn’t change their gender. There were still a lot of beautiful ladyboys and trans women in the country and even a prestigious trans beauty pageant that Faith participated in at the age of 15. Faith always felt like she was a girl ever since she was little. She won the first-ever pageant she participated in and was crowned “Miss Shining Hair.”

“After that I knew I want to live my life as a ladyboy.”

Faith was very comfortable with her identity, but society never let her feel accepted. She thought it was impossible for her to date Filipino men, especially as a ladyboy. It’s why Faith had been single for 30 years. She looked so happy when she told the cameras that her life had “changed” when she met a special someone from the U.S. Her “special someone” was Loren, and they had met on a dating app. Loren and Faith had been together for almost six months by then, but she was the only one who thought the relationship was “exclusive.”

Faith Thought Loren Was Respectful

Faith Assumed Loren Was Not Going To Use Her For Her Body

Faith revealed that she liked Loren’s personality. They laughed together. Loren was “different” because he was respectful towards Faith. Text messages shared between Loren and Faith had flashed on the screen showing Loren calling Faith his “princess” and telling her he was going to melt in her arms. Loren blushed as she added that the relationship was very important to her because Loren was her first boyfriend. Loren’s friends Dondon and Angel were also happy for her because she finally had a boyfriend. Dondon commented that he could feel Loren blushing like a rose when she spoke about Loren.

Faith had noticed that upon discovering that she was a ladyboy, many women would just want to use her for sex. She wanted to feel valued and to be with someone who wholeheartedly accepted her for who she was. Faith was just nervous because Loren was her first boyfriend. She was in love but not sure if he really loved her. No one had ever loved Faith before. She was scared of getting her heart broken. She hoped Loren was going to be the person she hoped he would be.

Faith Wished To Move To The U.S.

Faith Was Desperate To Move Out Of The Country

When Faith’s friends asked her if she and Loren had discussed having sex, she said they were “chill” about such things in their conversations. To Faith, it meant that Loren was serious about her. Faith was open to sleeping with Loren, but she’d also told him she wanted to make sure she loved him enough before sleeping together. Faith also told her friends that if Loren offered her the opportunity to come to the U.S. she would “wholeheartedly” seize it. Faith believed Loren was living a comfortable life in the U.S. She was aware of his many “side hustles.”

However, Faith did not know what Loren’s main source of income was. She thought Loren was earning well because he was always working whenever they chatted and Loren was not stingy with his money either. Faith commented on the Philippines being a poor country and the U.S. offering more opportunities, so one could earn more money. She thought that if she moved to the U.S. she and Loren would have a “successful life” together.

Faith Didn’t Expect Loren To Cheat On Her

Faith Ended Up Giving Loren A Second Chance

Loren told Faith that when he meant he was sleeping with other people, he meant he was having physical relations with them. Faith had been in the dark because of their language barrier and Loren took advantage of it. He only told her about his infidelity because he found out he had gonorrhea. Faith had no idea Loren was cheating. She had a lot of trust in him. Finding out that something fishy was going on after six months, had complexly shattered Faith. She didn’t understand how a man she loved so much could hurt her so badly.
