[QUOTE="thoughtgypsy, post: 15614, member: 571"] Completely agree. The only exception I can see is if you can't make a location independent income, and this is the only way you can bring a mother material girl over to live with you. The visa restrictions for certain countries are such that the only way they can come over to live here permanently is through marriage. Personally I don't think it's worth the risk. So for guys who want a family, I think the most logical options I've seen are: a) Local girl, LTR b) Foreign girl permanently living locally, LTR c) Foreign girl brought over by fiancee or marriage visa, Marriage d) Move overseas, Foreign girl, LTR/Marriage What stuck out with me was how bad the divorce rate was with Filipinas. So a guy flies halfway around the world, uses up all his vacation, goes through months of frustrations of an LDR, spends all his money bringing her over, supporting her family, and dealing with immigration law only to get a 5% reduction in divorce risk? F that. On the other hand, the 20% divorce rate for Colombian women isn't that bad. Not all foreign marriages are equal. [/QUOTE]
