Re: Foreign born spouse?
I used to think like you people but its not true for everyone. I myself know some guys living in Pakistan who HATE the idea of getting married to a girl from UK just to come to UK....I also know of girl/guy wanting to marry but they were in different countries. guy did not want to marry the girl to come to the west.....cuz ppl would say he only married to come over.....for that reason, hes spent alot more money and has found alternative route to first come to the west (by going and studying in another country first then transferring to the west), settle in the west and THEN get married.
there are some people who would go through all the above....just because they HATE the idea of getting married to someone for a green card/visa. for this reason, I think its totally wrong for us to assume that all pakistanis WANT to come to UK/USA. go to a major city of Pakistan and interview some educated Pakistanis....majority of them would be happy to live in Pakistan and NOT come to UK/USA.
I used to think like you guys before too....but having talked to many pakistanis myself....I realised it is not the case for everyone....especially not for the educated respectable people in Pakistan.
I agree with u ..most of the people who marry to move to a foreign place....donot have much to offer to begin with
