Do you think people should seek to marry...

[Kitten]

Do you think people should seek to marry someone just to immigrate to another country? What are the pros and cons to this type of marriage.

[Greatis]

hmmm really this question well for me marraige is sacred so business marriages I don't agree with.

[Kitten]

I am alittle skeptical about this because the person I know is interested in marry this guy and she feels she is in love with him. But I think he just wants to come up and then he will leave her. So I dont her i dont think she should unless she feels that she can deal with what happens. what do you think?

[Tastee]

How long has she known him? What type of person is he, sometime people arent always after a green card so maybe he really does love her.

Good question tastee but hmmm sometimes the person in the relationship does not always see the warning signs simply because they are blinded by love.

Some peole think that it is justified. I would not do it. I would not do it. If I marry someone from another country it would be because of love.

Touchy subject!

As long as both parties are in agreement that it is a "business" arrangement. I think it can work. A lot of times people pretrnd to care for someone, marry them just to get their papers looked after, then they hurt the person.

Also I think that people who agree to sponsor an immigrant, don't realise all the responsibility that comes along with sponsoring someone to immigrate. You are legally responsible for them for at least 3 or 4 years after the fact. Even IF you're divorced!

Morally speaking though... marriage for any other purpose than to commit to someone for life out of love, is wrong.

Just answered this same question for someone else I guess she should have read this first before she posted. I think anyone who does this usually wants what he can get and the person doing it for them if it is a women. Well her emotions will ultimately get caught up and when the guy leaves she will be hurt. But so many do it and think that these guys sweet talk is for real. Not thinking and just jumping into things. Think before you leap what does he have to gain.

This is a very touchie subject for me.
I know someone who really agreed to do it. When she came to the USA, they ended up getting to know each other and fell in love. Pity he died through the course of their marriage 7 years later.

I donot uphold with business marriages from day one, but to each his own.

This is a touchy subject how if your not doing it how is it touchy. People want to gain entry into other places and sometimes this is the means of how they can do it. Its plan an simple so if your not game dont get into it.

It's touchy in terms of it usually sparks argument! This isn't the only means of immigrating to a country and a lot of people find it wrong morally, to use marriage as a means to enter a country. I think if both parties are cool with it then fine... I just hate people who use other people, mislead them and hurt them! That's disgusting!

[Nastro]

Personally... for me it won't work. I don't have luck with women.

What do you mean? The question is: Do you think people should seek marriage as a means of immigrating to a country? So do you mean you don't think a woman would do that for you?

[Nastro]

In that case it would be a means to an end. Fine.

If you going actually fool a person in being that you love them and USE them to get your stay then I am totally against it.

A broken heart is a really painful thing, I could no way do that, or condone someone doing it.

[Tastee]

everyone has a point of view I think Ponda was right in what she said. Trini gurls all they way. You go gurl!

Yes, that's exactly what I said! :D I don't know if I would do it trhough! Morally speaking it's wrong to use Marriage for anything other than what it was intended for. If someone I was close with (a friend) wanted to come here... I might help them but, there's too much responsibility... I dont think I could deal with it! :eusa_thin

[InkyP1]

Hmmm I wonder if I answer if it will cause friction? :eusa_doh:

You say morally but it's not only morally it's Biblically wrong also. It's something that's sacred as is the church so it should not be tainted.

Do people read/listen to the marriage vows? A person who goes through the process of marrying someone and committing to those vows, with the intent that they will break them and have no intention of taking them seriously, is a person of low integrity. Dishonesty is never good. The ends do not always justify the means.

I would like to believe that we all should do the right think at all times, but I have come to realised that sometimes we humans becomever desperate and will do whatever it takes to survive. It isn't right and yes we should trust in God, but how many of us can say that our faith is always strong? Not one of us is without sin!

Sure nobody's perfect, but if people continue to compromise their morals and their integrity for the sake of convenience and seek to justify it, then it becomes that much more difficult to adhere to good moral principles in the future.

I agree with you BCK...I just want you to remember that things are not as simple as they sound. We all compromise our morals at some point..by thoughts/actions.

That's why we still need God to guide us in our daily endeavours.
