Re: Importing Grooms
Completely agree! And hence that’s why many girls abroad experience problems getting married because so many guys go back home for this purpose. There are many people, both abroad and in Pakistan, who have misconceived notions about girls born and raised abroad. And I’m sorry but yes, I have heard too many horror stories about girls being duped by jerks overseas and therefore I may also have a generalised notion about men overseas but when these girls do EVERYTHING for these guys from covering their expenses to being their maids and are then treated badly, then my only advice to any girl can be to avoid it if possible. This is not to say that there are no jerks abroad, of course there are and no marriage is free from risk BUT from experiences that my close friends and even family have gone through, the risk factor seems higher when marrying someone from there for reasons previously outlined. Furthermore, you know a guy abroad isn’t marrying you for your visa and will then dump you once he gets it.
And let me note, this is not about “Pakistan bashing.” I love Pakistan BUT what is wrong is wrong and the behaviour of many many men from there towards girls abroad after marriage is shocking and there is no excuse for that.
