| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 6/8/2007 5:45:57 AM |
A friend's cousin, a nice, not bad looking, very lonely guy purchased a wife from an Eastern block country- no sooner was she here and married- then the sex stopped- she turned into his spoiled daughter- then whenever he would get angry and threaten to end the relationship, she would have sex with him so that he calmed down. Two years to the day- she was gone with everything and it's a frigging nightmare for him financially on top of feeling like an idiot, on top of being lonely and horney again. Not a good scene. I know another man who ended up with a woman from England who came here to the U.S. after promising to have his child- kept pretending to lose the babies, waited two years, ran through a lot of money and walked out with her green card. It's a jungle out there.
A friend of mine works with a girl from the Ukraine. Her A-Hole husband beat her and gave her a black eye. She's still with him 9 years later. I think most are dedicated, but you have to use common sense. Don't go after a 19 yeard old girl and your 45-50 years old. Its a chance you take I guess. Yeah it is a gamble but some guys just don't feel like they can find someone in their own country. | |

Yes, truth is better.
I'm a disgusting useless bag of carbon-based chemincals.
You are my god....I only hope that in a future life I can be worthy of someone as wise and spiritually advanced as you are. Tho I know it'll never happen, that is my only hope in life.

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/15/2007 3:30:39 AM | Original Sin with Antonio Banderas and Angelina Jolie comes to my mind when i hear mail order brides.... You have to be awful lonley to have to resort to this.. Just my two cents.. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/15/2007 4:35:07 AM | well, while these last couple of posts have been slightly humorous, they really don't address the topic. After all it isn't like you are ordering from a catalog. It is the same as finding someone on this site who lives in a different country. You still have to meet and greet and conduct a long distance relationship. Then if all that works out you still have to jump throu8gh the legal hoops imposed by both countries.
All the BS about how if you can't find someone local is just that, BS. After all if we could find someone locallly then none of us would be on this site either.
You have to be awful lonley to have to resort to this.. HHHHMMMMM! and just how lonely do you have to be to put a profile on any date site? That is all those so-called mail order bride sites are after all. Just like this site they are just another tool to be used. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/15/2007 2:23:22 PM | | I don't see a problem with it - if there is a supply of women in place A, and a demand for women in place B, why shouldn't there be a mechanism to resolve it? Considering how western europe and north america have declining populations, maybe the government needs to get involved..... | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/15/2007 2:54:29 PM | I personally think it is wrong in MOST circumstances. In a lot of cases it is someone who only wants to come over here to live, and they take jobs away from people who need the work. I know a guy who is a complete A-hole, very abusive to his wife, and she just puts up with him punching on her whenever.
The other guy that I know that did that is paying to put his bride through school, and only time will tell, but I would be willing to bet that it only lasts for the minimum time allowed.
I think if you meet someone and you really fall in love, it is different, but I think that those matches are few and far between. Marriage should be between people who want to make a lifetime commitment, not people who just want to manipulate the system.
As far as declining population goes, none of the people I know that did the mail order thing have EVER had children, and never will.... | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/16/2007 9:52:19 AM | | Kame: making personal attacks against another member of the site is really uncalled for. I'm not a forum moderator, but I can tell you that seeing comments such as the one that you just made is not appreciated. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 7/17/2007 4:33:04 PM | Where in the world are you guys getting the idea that you buy a mail order bride.? That term is merely a hold over from the 1700's. As already noted in this thread. Shhheeesshh. The mail order bride sites are just a international date site. Guess what you are a member of a international date site. | |
|
| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/8/2007 12:05:29 PM | Have to say after a few months on this site, the idea of a mail order bride is becoming more appealing each day. North American women on this site are just down right harsh, and by reading some of the replies from women on this thread i think my statement is almost vindicated

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/8/2007 3:16:17 PM | To FORDBOY33 and the Original Post. Its a booming business for sure. Mostly because foreigners will do absolutely anything to be Canadian (#1), American (#2). I have been offered many times when I was in Russia, Thailand, Mexico, South America, Africa. But see, the point I can understand, if the foreigner is rich, and you are not. Then I can understand someone doing it for something in the 6 figures. But you have to be careful, hide the money from the government, and the new wife and their family.
I think there is a myth there, I had a friend/co-worker do that, he was not ugly, just his inter-personal skills lacked. But he did not pay, I think it was cyber-love deal. Which never makes sense to me. Someone can always find a woman locally. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/8/2007 4:57:23 PM | I'm wondering if there are any English men or Canadians out there looking for an American Mail Order Bride. I cook ... i clean... I REALLY REALLY like sex ... I love kids ... and I think I'm fun. Any takers??

I don't think it has anything to do with lonliness. More so convenience. Wouldn't it be nice to pick the "features" of a mail order bride (or husband in my case), like we do when we are ordering a brand spanken new car!?!? They probably cost the same. LOL.
It's like walking into a bar (if people still meet others in a bar these days) and saying "I will take her, her and her for an initial interview." Ater a hundred questions, narrow it down to just one. What's the difference?? I agree, this online dating site is just like mail order mate sites... just less expensive and more local. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/8/2007 5:19:39 PM | Thats right I left out europe, be #3 I guess.
On a totally off topic note, sign me up treasure224, you seem cool. I would dig dual citizenship ;) | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/8/2007 9:50:36 PM | OP.- There are more than 200 companies in this bussiness in US. Men out there looking for foreign women is not because they can't find one locally, is because they don't want it. Divorce rate is around 20% according INS info. I know enough about the subject, as posted in msg 433 of similar thread - "mail order bride"- in relationship forums with more than 25 pages, to think some posters in this thread are so ignorants that should use their right to be silent is there is nothing useful to say. | |
|
| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/9/2007 5:29:50 AM | Haha. From what I understand, those relationships don't tend to be very stable. Most of the time, the brides are looking to get out of their country, and marriage is the quickest way to do so. And anyway, there's no possible way of *really* knowing what kind of person you're about to jump into a marriage with. :P The whole mail-order-bride-concept seems rather iffy to me. | |

| What is your take on mail order brides? Posted: 8/9/2007 11:18:38 AM | fordboy...this is only an observation from my point of view.....
Most men I have seen resort to a mail order bride.....would have difficulty obtaining/romancing an American woman. They are either lacking in many ways or want a woman go grateful to them she is extremely subservient to them. Many times, the woman will only stay in the marriage long enough to get her final papers.....then she has her independence and is gone. It's really more of a business arrangement on the womens part. | |
