I married him for a green card. We had a really great, caring relationship; it just obviously wasn't right for me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I married an American. He was from the Pacific Northwest but went to law school in the South, so I was living in Virginia and North Carolina.
I got my green card and everything through my work, even before marriage or anything like that, so you really have to follow the rules and do everything the right way to be able to accomplish that, so it was big... I had my green card for so long.
I didn't go looking to marry an American, it just kinda happened like that.
It's funny that until I actually met my husband, I never thought I'd get married.
I'm an old-fashioned girl, and I didn't believe in living with people, so I guess I married for the wrong reasons at times.
I wasn't ever interested in marrying someone else's career or bank account.
I got married because it was the right time and the right thing to do.
My first marriage was not happy. I married him because I was impressed that he knew which wines to order and how to leave his visiting card. Ridiculous reasons.
I married the man of my dreams in 1998.
I had arranged a birthday party for him and my children, who are all Aquarians. Instead, we got married. I ran out of excuses. It was just us and my children.
