Would You Consider This a Good Marriage?

[mavskidd02]

Me intense efforts led me to find a great wife; at this point all I care about is that with all of the intense effort I put into this venture, I found a wonderful wife.
I couldn't care less how much lower the divorce rate between American men who marry Colombian women in comparsion to American men who marry American women;it is less thats for sure.

If that's all you care about, then great you have successfully found a wife and happiness. Shouldn't that be all that matters? Why need our approval and 100 responses to tell you that. If this is YOUR marriage, and YOU'RE happy, then our opinions should be moot.

I see the divorce rates are lower, which is very surprising.

Lets be real here for a second. How would one actually be able to sleep at night knowing that he bought a wife. Like what kind of real happiness can come out of such a thing after being used in such a way. Its quite obvious that anyone who does what Savage did to find a so called "wife" has extreme desperation and emtional issues. It is totally baffling that someone could stoop so low to completely discredit the exact premise in which marriage is supposed to be based on. This man obviously needs help and we should pray for his well being....

He may come across that he is happy but we all know deep down he is not or else he wouldnt have stooped to such low in finding a so called "wife"....

Your unfounded remarks are just that.
I have a great wife, and your "points" are just groundless and stereotyped assumptions;In all fairness I would expect an answer from someone as young and as inexpericenced as you are.
Stick to the CFL, where at least you know what you are talking about and can back what you can!

In answer to your question, the answer is a resounding YES about sending money.
This was not her idea but mine.
I send her family about $200 a month.

OMFG ..... NUFF' SAID savage. No wonder she is still there. God damn, that line explains EVERYTHING to me and i'm sure many others.

Not a purchase huh?

[wayne1218]

Savage, of course she married you because you have money. I mean she lived in a shit hole country and probably didnt have two wooden nickels to rub together. Women 25 years younger dont marry guys like you for your looks or your personality.

They marry you because you are financially stable(like you like to let us all know) and your safe. So the answer to your own question is this, if your good with that, who gives a shit what we think.

Everyone knows this except for the 65 year old!

Your sarcastic and insulting remarks indicate to me that either you didn't take the time to read All of my posts carefully and/or were unable to come to grips with the fact that sometimes hard work and effort do pay off such as in my case.
Instead like folks like you hurl insults and sweeping generalizations which have no basis at least as they apply to ME.
Tell me when you have an understanding of Latin/Colombian cultures and the mindset of an Evangelical Christian and a zillion other relevant things relative to MY venture which I know about and you do NOT and then we will talk.
The proof is in that pal buddy;if you can do as well or have already done as well in the Stares, then congratulations.

Sorta like a car payment huh?


Did it go like this ... wife: "My family really needs the money but i don't want you sending any." savage: "No, i insist." Wife: "No, it's ok." savage: "I insist." wife: "ok, $200 a month please."


Sickening and it explains why she is hanging around buddy. I do not need to hear anymore after that one ......

Phil-in answer to your question, I focused on my wife for a week.
We knew what we wanted in a relationship, saw it in each other and the rest of the story in history.
A lot of dating in the US(not all) from my perspective involves a lot of wasted time(from my perspective) because it doesn't involve talking abou the what is considered important in life.
Sites like EHarmony try to do this, and I give them credit for this.
The point is that in Colombia and in many other Latin countries the dating process is more simple because many of these women haven't been corrupted as are many American women(again not all) with materialistic values;lets break this down and make some assumptions:a man knows what he wants(in this case me) and spends quality time with a woman such as I did for a week or so in Colombia; she is on the same wave length as is the man(me), about what they(we) consider important in life and matrimony;, in actuality it doesn't/didn't take that much time to decide that they(me and my wife to be)decide to get married.
Remember I am 65 years old, have been around the block a few times and my wife although she is a 25 years younger than I am, thinks differently than do many women in the US both because of her culture and values instilled in her by her religion.
The bottom line is that the marriage is a very good one(we have disagreements from tiem to time like any other couples do), but we ALWAYS do have the the greatest respect and love for each other and we expect to be together "Until death do us part."
Hope that helps.

I don't have the website;the folks at Foreign Affair provided me with the stats. to show this. You do the research and tell us if you are curious.
Me intense efforts led me to find a great wife; at this point all I care about is that with all of the intense effort I put into this venture, I found a wonderful wife.
I couldn't care less how much lower the divorce rate between American men who marry Colombian women in comparsion to American men who marry American women;it is less thats for sure.
Lets put it this way- the chance of divorce between American men who don't put in the effort and time I did in trying to find a Colombian wife would be higher than it would be for me(but still less than it would be in marrying an American woman).
I am proud of what I did-the results show it-more American men who can't find the woman of their dreams should try it instead of just questioning it;I speak from personal experience.
Sorry if that sounds like an essay or is too long for you;I collect my thoughts before I express them and thank God for giving me ability to do so.

Your unfounded remarks are just that.

But all of your assumptions are correct??

They have to be, you said them

My previous remark addresses these issues.
I can't really decide at this point who is more uniformed here and less educated re: what other cultures are like especially the Colombian culture you or Wayne; it is pickem for now. lol

[savage1]

They have to be, you said them

A zillion percent more than yours are as applied to my case ;I have a wonderful and loving wife as proof.
What do you have other than generalized statements with no basis other than your mouth!

ps They have to be, you said them (your quote)
I do have results now that validate my assumptions for me and that is all that matters.

I wonder what $200/month is worth there according to their standard of living compared to ours?

You make monthly payments to her family. Now i'm wondering who is using who in this one!

[BillMill71]

Wow, this is a creepy thread.

[wayne1218]

I bet a LOT more than here. The sickening and fucked up part is that savage has no fucken clue what he is doing.
