will you love or marry a foreign man or woman?

Hi cindy, I have known many people who are married to foreigners and are very happy. there are bound to be problems like in any other marriages and may be a little more adjustment. But if they discuss and plan everything and go ahead with the marriage i feel that things will work out and why not? Troubles can happen anywhere...i have a cousin who is married to an American since the past 21 years and they are extremely well adjusted and happy. She has a great rapport with his parents and sisters , and he too is loved by her family..

Hello Cindy! I am married to a foreign man. That's what I thought first before marrying my husband. There were lot of anticipations how our relationship will go since we have different culture and beliefs. We have known each other for 3 years before we got married. Luckily, we are doing great though arguments is always there. We are not perfect but also it is normal for a relationship for having a little fight. We are both happy having each other.

I haven't ever been in a relationship or been interested in someone from a different country from myself, but my coworker is American and married to an Indian man and from what I have seen this doesn't cause many problems for her. Most of the problems are the family not being happy about her not being Indian, but she gets to see India which she wouldn't have gotten to do if she hadn't married him so that's pretty cool and they have the most beautiful daughter I have ever seen.

Here in Berlin and the Netherlands, it is very normal for people to have a relationship being from different countries. We are all people and we all have feelings. When you are in love you have no control over who you will love, it just happens. And if the person is from another country, that should not be a problem. There are people who have relationships with there country members and also have problems. There is no guarantee when it come to love and relationships. Take care.

No, i've never been into a relationship like that and yes, i've got no plans of marrying someone from different culture.. i'm very much happy and contented with my present relationship, i couldn't ask for more.. he's the love of my life!!! we met through an exclusive website and from there our love story begins.. we are celebrating our fourth anniversary tomorrow and he's not going to report to the office to spend time with me..

i have lots of friends who did so, and i dont mind doing that too. i think it's really cool. you learn new things, and teach him or her new things too.

My friend married a man she met over the internet, he was from India and anyone with half a brain could tell he'd marry anybody just to come to America and that's just what he did! He found a fool, (my friend), and came over here and married her and tried to turn her into a musslum! She had to wear those big ugly hot woolen clothes down to her feet and that stupid thing on her head and she tried real hard to do what he wanted but it didn't work out! She had a baby but it was born retarded, he spent all his time at his church and work and finally they got divorced. Now he wants to take the baby back to India to live with him and it is a long, drawn out battle in court! No way would I marry anyone from another land, there's too much difference between people, especially religious differences!

Here in Philippines there are a lot of people especially women who marry foreigners. And I have known several couples who came from different country but now they are happy and their marriage is still good. I think marriage is about maturity and commitment and you willingness to compromise and adjust to one another so it can succeed. Whatever your races are as long as you will learn to respect and support your behalf I think there is no problem with that. Open communication between the two of you is very important so your marriage and adjustment to different ways of living will not be a hindrance in living a harmonious relationship.

Yes I would ive always wanted to date a russian and get a russian bride. I just like foreign women a lot more then american women. I think the relationship can be stronger to since if they move to your country you know they love you and you love them thats how I see it anyway.

Hello cindyhxf. I have quite a few colleagues who came to work in our school as a married couple. They are interracial marriage, Chinese and American, Chinese and Japanese. They seem to be living happily though there are some cultural differences. I think that the most important thing is to have a good understanding with each other to form a harmonious and wonderful relationship between each other. Take care and good luck with you, dear friend.

If any good guy even a foreigner will ask to marry them, i may say yes. In this case this guy is really a good guy and probably my mr.right. Actually i like oriental guy like japanese, korean or taiwanese guy, but not with western guys, i dont know its just in my family have chinese blood and follow the tradition to marry chinese guy. Hmm.., actually not strict as the traditional chinese family, but my parents are more democratic to the kids, and they can accept the western guy, no problem with that as long as we have the same religion and this person really take care of me. My mother said, its better if someone loves you more and not you really love someone more than the person loves you. Hmm... and its true that i have certain temperament that makes common guy may loose their interest in me because of my different characteristics compare to the typical woman nowadays. Im not really into handsome guys, im not the type who will run for a guy, or aggresif person, i even never contact the guy but they contact me, im type who never look down on any other person, and im always cool. I dont know, but some guys told that im so cool so they even dont know if i love or care about them. hahaha... i dont know, being so cool doesnt mean i dont have heart that care, hehe... Yes, im looking for right guy, and i dont care about his citizenship, my neighbour married a belgian guy and they have a happy family. My father even joke to me that i may marry a western guy if the guy is nice like the belgian. Or, should i marry a belgian guy? ahhahaha. At least i can have belgian chocolate everytime he visits me... ahaha

hi cindyhxf, I am in a relationship with a foreign man, right now. I am a Filipina and he is an American guy. We met at one site in the internet. We started as friends first. Even at first time, I felt something for him. He is very unlikely of other foreign guy because he is somehow conservative compare to others who is so much liberated. I can say that he is the liberated type also but not that much. His family is very Catholic and I can say that, that might be the reason why he acts so good with me and with my family.Well, we somehow got some difficulties also in our relationship. We even got to the point that I thought we would break up. That is because of the differences on some areas. We sometimes have differences on our opinion and we both think that it is because of our cultures. Because of that, we both come up into agreement that if we really love other, we must learn how to adapt on one's culture. As of now, we are both trying to adapt to both cultures. He adapts on my culture and I adapts on his culture also. It is just a matter of give and take that somehow, it lessens our misunderstanding. Well, I can say there is no problem marrying a foreign man. We had a plan to get marry also in the future. Regarding with cultures, we had made an agreement on that already and I think that is one good sign how we can get along with each other peacefully. Aside from that, there are also cases in marriages which both parties have different nationality and yet, the marriage is successful.I can say that, in a relationship, I think, it doesn't matter if the husband or wife is a foreigner as long as there is the presence of love, understanding, respect and trust.

hi cindy, you cannot dictate your feelings if you met somebody who has a different culture nor a complete foreigner to you. i had that perception before when i was still young when my friends done penpal and snail mail but i did not expect that i will also marry a complete foreigner. different culture, beliefs, traditions, appearance, language and country and many more. but love what makes it! hope your not having doubts and make sure of your decisions. more power!

I think I can do that as long as that man will love me truly and accepts me. My grandmother married an american and I think they're happily married now, they are old but they're still together. The culture and the way of living didn't matter for them. I guess their reason for that is they can accept one another's culture and they can learn how to adjust just to be with the people they truly love. I believe that most of foreign mans and women can appreciate all the good qualities of the people around them. They can see every good in a person by their expressions and their appearance, they'll give you nice complements. I know that because I've meet a lot of foreign people who's like that. They're not like others who will just see the negative in others or they may see some good in others but they will not accept it if they know that that person will be more than what he was. He will feel envy instead of appreciation and admiration. If you have bad opinions about foreigners, I think you'll need to be open minded for them and you'll see that you're wrong. If you fall in love with a foreigner it's not a big problem as long as you know that you love each other.

Hi,friends I think i can make a frends with a foreigner but never love him or marry him.The reason is just like u said,different background,different idea etc, and it's very hard to remove these differences. In my opinion,if teo peope who is come from different country love or married,then,one of them must be apt to the other's culture or custom.That's the key that they live togher.

well it depends on the thoughts because most of the time it may be just a infactuation. may be later our thought process dont match.. i will take a bit bit of time.. as though i dont know much about love, once broken i never try to get into it more to die.. i think i wont marry or love because i am impossible to understand a guy from my own dwelling place, how can i get with a far relation, that too so far... i dont think i will

marrying a foreign woman is interesting and thrilling too.. but i prefer to marry local woman only,,for 2093872090498 reasons :P,,

Hi, here in india marrying a foreigner is rare.but marriage or love doesnot see whether its a rich or poor,foreign or same country. Its all because of exchange of hearts

Hello. I do not agree that and I think I will never do that. I have a female friend who married a Japanese boy.Before marrige,the boy is quite nice.He treated she as well as possible.But after their marriage,zhe girl with the boy went to Japen.The girl time by time finds many bad habbits of the boy.He looks doun on women and he is very proud.He drinks a lot.The girl liwes a hard life. I have no happy dreams about love so I do not agree. Anyone agree?

you know what, i really find it hard to fall in love with a foreigner, cuz with all the language and communication skills, it's still hard to express myself or understand him in an exact way. but anyway, i have a girlfriend who is dating a Danish guy (she's Chinese), she's quite ok with the relationship and is abt to get married. i think this cant be a general question because people are born to be different. that girlfriend of mine enjoys something new or different, so she's always kept excited with the guy, everyday in the relationship is new for her although they've dated for more than a year...so if you're alike her, then i guess marriage with a foriegner might be a good choice
