Do you want to marry a foreigner if your chance comes?

I laughed when I read your post. I do remember back then that I had this sort of fascination marrying a foreigner. I was very young then. Perhaps it was brought about by my being young. But when I grew up older, I just laughed it off. I just shrugged my shoulders every time I read something about it.

I would marry and move away providing he lived in a warm southern climate! No, really, I guess if I were to marry, we would move wherever we had to be for employment and other opportunities. We can't always stay close to both sets of parents unless you marry someone from your own town or very nearby. It is easier to stay in touch now than it used to be, so that would help. I would not hesitate to marry someone I loved just on the grounds of having to relocate.

Interesting question. I have married a foreigner in my real life. I am from India and he is from America. Now, I am waiting for my visa to go to America. It is sad that we both are from different continents and it takes almost two days of travel by air to reach his house. Also,we have to think about booking an air ticket and seeing the visa. As you said, one of us will miss the family all the time. But, I think in life the more important thing is if you can find somebody who is in tune with your habits and intersts and with whom you can live happily forever. My parents are his parents are happy in that way that we are together and we have a great life together. So, I am happy that I could find him, but we miss our parents and they miss them. But, atleast they are happy that we are happy together.

Love has no boundaries, if I got a chance why not as long as we love each other. The only problem that you would encounter are cultural differences and long distance relationship. It would not be a problem if you trust and love each other.

Hi, karenkarenkk, That should not be a problem. love is so powerful, Distance will not be able to affect it deeply.

i want marry with a foreigner surely. i thought distance of road is not a big matter . i don't find any wise and great issue to stop relationship with a foreigner. if both we love each other and our heart comes very near. distance will not be trouble. for true love and for nice minded lover, anyone are ready to consider something. i also can consider. parents are knows very well that while their child gonna adult they may go far from them. but we must keep showing respect to our parents and care them lot. and i think its not hard to do, if we live far away from parents, they don't mind . i don't find any trouble here so.

Marrying a foreigner has its own set of concerns like the one you mentioned among others. Also, another thing about getting married is that you have your own life with your hubby separate from your parents. It would be nice if you always stay close with your parents but in some cases, a couple has to move away far from them and this is not always easy. As time passes, everybody learns to adjust to the situation. have fun

seem the story of my mums family, we're all scattered all over the place. my parents are both from the u.k. but dads family came out to australia back in the 70's so they came to once they were married. mums been back 5 times in 28 yrs, last time was when grandma passed. then 2 of her sister kids are overseas. one married a kiwi, and has been there for just over 10 yrs now, and the eldest son married a girl from the u.s. i think they've been married for about 3/4 yrs now. it's a bit like any one who marries and move away from home even if it's in the same country. but if you both love each other who cares where you come from, long as your both happy together.

Hi there karen. I already married a foriegner man,I came from Philippines and his from England.Before we get married, he only visited me once or twice a year if he get chance to have an off from work. But we stay faithfull to each other. When we got married, i left my homeland and joined him here in England, my parents and family missed us soo much, but i do call them twice a month and do chatting online. I'm sure your and his parents will going to understand, you have your own life now with your hubby. Just give your parents a call everyday. And visit them once you get a chance. Happy posting.

I did it. Fell in love with someone I met over the internet. Me from the U.S. She from Argentina. I now live in Argentina! lol. It hasn't been too difficult on my parents and siblings. Having grown up in a military lifestyle we were constantly moving. As a result, forming relationships or lasting friendships was virtually impossible. I think it also allowed my parents to easier accept me moving so far away. We were raised to be soooooooooo independent! I think what was more difficult was the reaction from my friends at the time. All saying to "be careful" that my Argentine lover was only interested in me to be able to move to the U.S. LOL! Funny how things work out but it hurt alot being called "unpatriotic" and things like that. Been here for 10 yrs now and I'd still do it again. Love is love....if it's true love you find a way to work it out and family & friends will find a way to deal with it. My mom comes here every 2 yrs and the years she doesn't come here, I go there and visit all my family. It's a pretty good arrangement for us! Love can conquer all! lol. Happy myLotting!

I think that the next time I get married, I won't marry someone and move away. I'll stay in my hometown close to my family. I did that this time and it was a mistake, a bad mistake. I rarely get to see my family now and I don't like that. Also if I do marry again I'd take all of my furniture from my apartment when I moved in with my partner.

For me it doest mean i dont like foreigner, but if ever i have a choice i preferred to marry same Filipino like me.Because its very difficult to adjust to other cultures and traditions, religions.Everything you need to learned about them.

Well, i would marry foreigner, if it is a true love... actually, i will marry one, he lives 2000 km from me, in other country, other culture, other language, but i don't care. I know my parents will miss me a lot, and it will be very hard, but i still want to leave my country and everything because of him. I just can not imagine my life without him. I think i will try to bring parents later if they agree, at least for few months.

who wouldn't everyone wants to have those blue eyes, and the height, and the color of the skin, as well.. But seriously,you don't need to marry them just to have good-looking kids.. if you're pretty/handsome enough, steal his/her heart. Looks can really be deceiving.

Well, I suppose when you love someone, all the barriers can be broken with love. I don't think I'll stop a relationship if distance is the issue. But when it comes to the families, I am really glad that my husband and I are from the same hometown. Every time when we travel back to our hometown, we stay at his house, but also always go back to my house and visit my parents. That means, we get to spend time with our parents more often. It's really a hard decision to make, parents always hope that the kids are staying near to them. Hope you'll find a solution for this soon.

When you love someone a long distance relationship is possible. Love can cross countries or even continents. I am British and my ex-husband is Australian. I met him on a train in Australia and he came to live in England. He found the weather way too cold because he was used to a sub tropical climate.
