My mom is Hispanic & my dad is Japanese. Their 1st date in Miami consisted of a lot of finger pointing and a lot of smiling to communicate. 44yrs later, they r still happily married and have learned to speak English together
Oh David!! As someone who lost her mom to cancer and then lost her dad to a nasty narcissistic woman, I want to hug you a million times for being a stand up Dad to your daughter and not tolerating that crap. I hope you're happy with a lovely wife ❤️
Other men asking the women how tall they are, looking for girls half their age, while David is there literally asking them what they’re looking for in a man, looking for someone his age :’). Such a good person, he deserves all the happiness!
Just saw this episode today & a decade later they're still married. Wow! It was meant to be. Recall someone mentioned his two previous marriages may not be a good thing. Laughed when someone said, "He better behave!" Nice to know they're together. Hopefully to this day.
My wife and I knew each other in person for 5 days. She and I wrote 2 notes in the beginning before I met her in the Philippines. We got engaged within rhose 5 days. She came to Canada 14 months later, and we spoke weekly during those 14 months. We married 88 days later. We will celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary in a few months. In fact, she will be on a trip home to the Philippines, our first anniversary being apart.
My now husband and I knew each other in-person for 10 days when we got engaged but had met online 4.5 months before and spoke at length daily (I had a very long commute at that time so chatting for hours was possible). Literally everyone mocked us and said it would “never last.” We married in December the same year we engaged and have been married 8 years this year. The people who mocked us? They were people who met in-person and even lived together before my husband and I ever met. NONE of their relationships lasted but my husband and I are still going on.
Lemar is absolutely 🤢. He's talking in front of cameras and yet he has no shame, trying to grab & touch the beautiful girl that's 1/3 his age, as much as he could. The way he assumes he can just grab, touch, hug etc, already shows how much respect he has for these women.
He makes me sick... basically looked at that girl young enough to be his granddaughter like a piece of meat, he clearly has no respect for her or other women
@Asphincter says what? Wow! Asphincture, you really walk the walk! What's your favorite human sphincter? I love the Cloaeca! Just sounds so peppy and cute, slightly exotic.
I've watched a lot of these mail order bride/foreign dating documentaries, and David is the only man I've seen who seems like a genuinely good, solid guy.
No “good solid guy” has to search out disadvantaged women. All these women want is money and a green card. Otherwise they would just find “love” with their own poor people lol
I found Maria Cristina and David on social media. They just celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary in December and she was gushing over him! Looks like she became an American citizen a few years ago and is selling insurance.
@ M S - Trying to please their wives, provide for their families, remain faithful, get their kids where they they need to be . . . . yeah, really, really BORING . . . .
David seems like a pretty ok guy. I appreciate how forthcoming and honest he was. He knows what he wants. He wasnt preying on younger girls. He wants a companion. respect
Awe! I wasn’t expecting to watch this and actually be rooting for a couple but David and Maria Cristina are both so incredibly sweet and seem great together! I was really happy to read some of the comments that said they’ve been married for 10 years now and are still happy and in love. Good for them, they deserve it. I hope they really do grow old together 💕
Men don't normally want to date or marry single mother's. It can be very complicated for the man to deal with a instant family. The guy should make it clear before hand he is not interested in single mother's. So the women are not surprised. You show your ignorance when you call him names. Single women treat single father much the same way. It is hard to bring up someone's else's kid and we know that guy would be paying for everything. Funny how the women call him names for just being honest about what he wanted. I am sure the comments are coming from American women. No wonder American men are looking in other countries for women.
You maintain the love and build it stronger but first you have to find that person who can make you say "my LOVE" so be smarter and you will attract your love :)
David, aka, McLovin...what a seemingly nice guy! Maria was the oldest woman there and I wonder how many of younger women thought she didn't have a chance...YAYYY for us 40+ single ladies!
Keep your weight under control and don't have kids out of wedlock. Any woman who does that is miles ahead of other women seeking a spouse, but you're so ef fin lazy, even those low standards are too high for 70% of you. Most men will accept older women if they adhere to that.
She was in her early 40s and already successful. Forget the younger girls, the one David chose was the best woman there. Of course she would be chosen. It was obvious.
Yenno what’s so crazy? I never believed in marriage tours or anything like that but as soon as I saw Maria Christina and heard her speak, I thought “Wow she’s perfect for David” I’m absolutely thrilled that not only did they end up together, but they’re still married a full decade later. Incredible. I can’t say I’m surprised because my intuition was just screaming for them to be together. Congratulations to the happy couple on a decade of marriage! 🎉
Not sure about the situation, but I can see some parents being tempted due to fear of being alone to stand y their new mate. However, depending on their off spring age they need to come first. For example, if the child was 24 and being a brat then no, if the child was 10 then that new person has to go the child comes first. See so to me it depends, in the end though you should do everything to keep your family together for they are blood. The other person might love you for now, but they can leave just as easily as they arrived, blood wont change.
Honestly, after watching the video, my only thought was: 'why didn't most of these men bother to learn some Spanish if they were going to Columbia?' This is like 'The Bachelor', only with much higher life stakes.
He looks and reminds me of an ex landlord who also has the southern twang and exact same effeminate voice/mannerisms. This bald and hideous decomposing psychopath also married a woman twenty years younger from Russia (not Poland as he claims)with an eight year child and she had already been married twice before.
this is so weird! i’ve met Christina and I had no idea she got married this way! well good for them bc they’re a happy couple. 10 years married . she sells insurance in my city
My neighbor traveled to Ukraine and ended up marrying a 10+. She is taller then him. 8 year age gap. They have been together for 7+ years. He put her through school. She is a career woman now. He had 2 daughters from a previous marriage. Both daughters love her. They are happily married and have a great relationship.
That's what you see from the outside you really don't know what goes on behind closed doors. She could just be waiting for a better opportunity only time will tell
He was very degrading toward her. She accurately clocked his intentions though. I took the teeth remark at face value though. He obviously doesn't have his own.
I crossed an ocean to find my love - this is my second time around. My first marriage broke down after we had crossed that ocean together. I thought aww well that's that... at 55 I found him, he found me - there is love out their. Best of luck all
I`m glad that Christina took a chance with this and secured a much better life for her daughter, the way she looks at him at David 31:39 is quite revealing. It`s a shame that Karen didn`t have the same luck with her beautiful daughter.
when i meet my husband the first night i saw him and talked to him, i knew he was the one. 14 yrs later we have 3 intelligent and handsome boys and still going strong. I never had insecurities issues towards other girls, never had trust issues, never had a problem with him being a responsible guy and dad but i have to admit that we both went thru so much together because we meet when i was still 19 yrs old and he was 21.. we were both extremely immature, we had so much disagreements but one thing im so thankful is that even now with our 30s, we have grown so much!!! so much like woow. we constantly learn and adjust with each other and one things for sure..respecting your relationship and listening to each other and be willing to compromise a lil bit to keep the relationship healthy is very important..like when he have to adjust with me being a person with ADHD and me not abusing his patients and constantly finding ways to better myself. sorry if i talk so much but the ending is that i think i have no problem seeing Cristina and David falling inlove in less than a week.
Karen is so beautiful. So honest and down to earth. Her little daughter is adorable, just like Karen herself. I truly hope she finds happiness. If I were a younger man, I would pursue her to the ends of the earth.
By the way….I met my wife on this tour only I went to Ukraine. And my future wife was not in the social she was to shy to go in! I just by chance saw her sitting far away at a table in the cafe next door and why I saw her I just had to meet her and walked over and introduced myself. Very sweet, extremely shy, and now my beautiful wife! ))
@@justadreamerforgood69 The younger generation is shocked that people used to need to muster the balls to communicate, and men actually had to pursue the woman they wanted. This would help explain the prevalence of simps and beta males in today's society. But you keep swiping for that woman of your dreams ...
@@bobhabib7662 It's not about the balls. Women nowadays only choose the top 10% of good looking men because they are available to them 🤷🏻♂️ Nothing about having guts. Besides I see old guys creeping more than younger dudes 😒
@@justadreamerforgood69 Haha wait.. you mean you’ve never had the nuts to approach a woman and talk to her or ask her out or shoot your shot? Man that’s sad bruh. You need to grow a pair of balls and get in the fuking game.
As the saying goes, its just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as it is with a poor man. You can't fault these ladies for wanting to better thier lives. And at least this way, both parties are straight up with each other
You need to get out more. Lisa is doing her job, thats not her whole personality how can you say you know her enough to make such a statement; i hope you dont stalk her. 😳
Pros: she has a nice Asian face. Cons: ugly body and works for racist Oprah who became famous and rich because of White America! Go for it and be happy, David and Maria. You both deserve it. Yes, I am black and politically incorrect!
I met my husband in a bar, we're happily married and been together for 18 years, I couldn't imagine living life without him, he's my best friend and soul mate, even though we're complete opposites, we don't even like the same music, but he truly is my better half
Women like you are rare 🤷🏻♂️. Maybe it's cause you were brought up in a generation before the internet Now, women want to just hop on to the next best guy
Agreed. I bartended in my early 20s, wearing low cut shirts, making *good* money, enough to pay for college. The difference between our situations happens to be the country I was born in, which inherently provides me with more opportunities
@@hellotrees529 I don’t know if that’s really sad, everyone uses their resources. It’s no different than athletes who get into college based on their athletic ability who would never have been able to get in on academics.
A few years ago, I would've had negative views on finding love in this manner. And now I think, how is this any different than online dating? Love can be found anywhere in the world. With the internet at our fingertips, it is easily accessible. How these men are going about it seems much safer since you get to meet the prospects in person. Sure, you pay a lot of money but you're paying for having some level of security and they seem to be very respectful of each other. I'm sure there are men who probably aren't genuinely looking for love but that also happens within your own country. Love has zero boundaries. I hope David and Cristina are happily married.
Honestly my husband & I knew very quickly that what we had was special and heading somewhere… we’ve now been married for 21 years this month in fact! Together for 22 & have 2 amazingly healthy, intelligent, sweet, beautiful , & well mannered children! We are still very much in love, still get butterflies on date night!! He’s very much my King & I his Queen.. I don’t think that it’s impossible what they’re doing. If they are serious about finding someone special of course. At least they’ve cut out all the games & the push & pull! They’re very up front about what each other wants.
So nice to read another success story. I met my Husband on holiday, we got engaged 2 days later and have been married for 35 years and also have 2 amazing children. When you know you know
I'm glad it worked out for David & Maria Christina. But look, he's decent, attractive, maybe a 5 or to some women, a 6. You don't see the guys that are REPULSIVE scoring too often, they are the ones that get ghosted. He has a really good PERSONALITY, laughing constantly. He also had plenty pictures OF HIS HOUSE which is decent on a good street, good area. So he's decent all around. Some of these guys live on strange farms, in strange areas, remote or ugly areas, so besides being repulsive, their environments also are not inviting. Then there's the zombies. One guy here was a zombie, besides being ugly, his personality was a toad. And that poor skinny girl explained herself to him in English - & in the next breath he said to the interpreter, 'Are we moving?" {to the next table} No tact. Toad. Repulsive.
I think that guy got turn off because when that girl explained that she has a small daughter and lives with her family and siblings,he just thought that is too much hassle
Ouch! Yeah, that was sad. You could hear both of them dying inside a little. He sure didn’t like the idea of an energetic toddler, and a multi-generational family. The poor girl seemed to be on the verge of tears throughout the event, and his gum-chewing lack of interest didn’t help. Karen strikes me as a romantic who wanted to be someone’s special woman. Not temperamentally suited for the meat market. I hope she found someone who could give her some of what she needs.
So "half of all men end up engaged"... I've seen these shows before, they propose the first week, but it very rarely works put. So why doesnt the company state how mant end up married, and how many end up married fro longer than 2 years? I think we all know the answer ls to that
Reverse the situation and let us say he meets another American woman in the US and then proposes a week later. What are the odds it will last in the US? With the cultural and language differences as even bigger barriers, plus she needs to move to his country, learn his culture and government system, plus she has to learn how to drive, the odds have to be very high that it would not last. My question is why would she want to even try? I bet all these women get very lonely for the first year or so. I would feel sorry for her.
I saw the show last night and am so happy that David and mari Christina are happily married. this is a true love story involving two mature genuine people and it warms my heart. What happened to Karen? she seemed sincere as well. anyone know?
My grandfather who was In his 40s met my grandma at an Hospital when he had to go to a specialist for his missing eye. Grandmother was just 5 years younger then him and was an nurse. Nobody thought he would come home with an wife but he did. Honestly do you know anyone who meet there wife or husband at an club, bar or party. My mom ran into my dad with her bike.
I think the current stats are 85% of americans meet their spouses through work. My husband was my boss, we met when I was 18 and he was 21 and we've been married 16 years.
Most of the Colombian women i met in Colombia were friendly and very helpful. I wasn't scammed by any women at all when i was in Colombia. I was only scammed by a Chinese woman and a Taiwanese woman when i was in China and Taiwan because i thought they like me. I am thinking of going back to Colombia again after coronavirus.
Sal Love.... Right😃...! But seriously Ewww...When he so weirdly mentioned she had beautiful teeth, and putting her in his suitcase, he sounded like a scary character😱 in a creepy horror movie. All I thought was girl scurry away from him quick😰!
Right because it’s creep city in there especially grandpa at 24:30 telling the lady he need a bigger suitcase to put her in not funny to me because he just may be serious
Yeah, can't imagine been taken away to a new country and not knowing if could end traffic or so because don't really know the man only what they want to present.
You are 100% correct but consider this. Most of these woman come from countries that are already dangerous. The one woman in this was from the Red Zone in Columbia. Meeting a stranger and leaving the country could still arguably be safer. Ukraine is another common destination, a country in civil war.
Even those producing the show don't understand love. Love is the sacrificial commitment to look out for the best of another. It's an action, not an emotion. The question is whether they are compatible and that cannot be known easily when people are from different cultures and speak little to none of the other person's language. Sparks/chemistry/compatibility are important for a marriage, but the commitment to love as unconditionally as possible, is a choice.
This video made me cried.yes Lisa I think these two are real,he didnt unrealistically choose the younger and prettier one.and they both are good looking. Thanks Miss Lisa for the nice video. Always love you and shows
Was it his "take you home in my trunk comment" 😂 or just the fact that he looks like an "old creepy man"?? Not because he is old but because he looks more creepy than he is old 😂 😂
I love how David wasn’t looking for a woman to make him happy but he wanted someone to share the happiness he already had with.
Also, very telling that he wasn’t looking for someone younger than his daughter to start a “second family” with.
I think he’s a good dude. Solid. 100%
My mom is Hispanic & my dad is Japanese. Their 1st date in Miami consisted of a lot of finger pointing and a lot of smiling to communicate. 44yrs later, they r still happily married and have learned to speak English together

thanks for sharing. and here you are so congrats brother
That's beautiful.
Half Japanese and Hispanic is wonderful you must be beautiful! I'm half Jamaican, Half Irish :)

lol you better believe they check to see how much money u make before they come out here, that’s gold digging leaving poverty for a better life.
But when older women get together with a younger man you dont say nothing.

this is so weird! i’ve met Christina and I had no idea she got married this way! well good for them bc they’re a happy couple. 10 years married . she sells insurance in my city
Do you have social media links??
This seems like a weird flex tbh
@@JefferyT1991agree! 😬
I love David's laugh and I'm glad he found someone to make him happy 😊
David went for someone close to his age. So nice!
Instead of drug wars, nows there’s marriage wars
It’s not about age. It’s about compatibility, companionship, and love.
Lol it made me laugh when Dianna said American men are faithful 🤣 😂
😂😂😂
Yeah she's in for a rude awakening 😭😭😭
Saaaaaame. 😂
Probably the least faithful men of the bunch lol
😆😆😆😆 so naive
My neighbor traveled to Ukraine and ended up marrying a 10+. She is taller then him. 8 year age gap. They have been together for 7+ years. He put her through school. She is a career woman now. He had 2 daughters from a previous marriage. Both daughters love her. They are happily married and have a great relationship.
That's what you see from the outside you really don't know what goes on behind closed doors. She could just be waiting for a better opportunity only time will tell
Karen is absolutely gorgeous! I couldn’t believe she didn’t get picked. I hope wherever she is now she’s happy and married
"She has beautiful teeth." Are you buying a horse? My skin crawled when he said he wanted to put her in a suitcase.
He was very degrading toward her. She accurately clocked his intentions though. I took the teeth remark at face value though. He obviously doesn't have his own.
Exactly what I was thinking! What a dirty perv.
It’s important to check the teeth on a horse, they cost alot
@Dan Rook - Your misogyny is clear, in comparing a woman to an animal.
Go David
I’m glad David is looking for someone his own age !!!!
He's the only one who seems to be looking for something real.
Oh David is looking for same age lady because he only wants talk to someone at home and nothing more.
@@samanthatheegr8 and I think he found it
He is 49 and Maria is 40
@@dc3174 in US. that is paedophilia, he is 49 he should be looking for a 49 year old lady.
I crossed an ocean to find my love - this is my second time around. My first marriage broke down after we had crossed that ocean together. I thought aww well that's that... at 55 I found him, he found me - there is love out their. Best of luck all
I`m glad that Christina took a chance with this and secured a much better life for her daughter, the way she looks at him at David 31:39 is quite revealing. It`s a shame that Karen didn`t have the same luck with her beautiful daughter.
Karen's beautiful. The schmuck who left her deserves what's coming. Updates on her? Did she marry? Wish she were here in California.
I was creeped out by most of this especially that creepster old guy, but I am really happy for David and Christina!
Omg my heart just melted for Maria and David! Wonderful story to watch!
oh i have so much sympathy for the columbian women
when i meet my husband the first night i saw him and talked to him, i knew he was the one. 14 yrs later we have 3 intelligent and handsome boys and still going strong. I never had insecurities issues towards other girls, never had trust issues, never had a problem with him being a responsible guy and dad but i have to admit that we both went thru so much together because we meet when i was still 19 yrs old and he was 21.. we were both extremely immature, we had so much disagreements but one thing im so thankful is that even now with our 30s, we have grown so much!!! so much like woow. we constantly learn and adjust with each other and one things for sure..respecting your relationship and listening to each other and be willing to compromise a lil bit to keep the relationship healthy is very important..like when he have to adjust with me being a person with ADHD and me not abusing his patients and constantly finding ways to better myself. sorry if i talk so much but the ending is that i think i have no problem seeing Cristina and David falling inlove in less than a week.
Congratulations David and Maria on 10 years of marriage.
wow
😇🎂
“I’m trying to buy a bigger suitcase so I can take her home”. No, that’s not creepy at all.
Was he trying to place her in the suitcase in one piece or in multiple pieces. That is the question.
LOL And then the "SMILE" when shee awakrdly cant understand a word hes saying thankfully for her !
Karen is so beautiful. So honest and down to earth. Her little daughter is adorable, just like Karen herself. I truly hope she finds happiness. If I were a younger man, I would pursue her to the ends of the earth.

As the saying goes, its just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as it is with a poor man. You can't fault these ladies for wanting to better thier lives. And at least this way, both parties are straight up with each other
It’s quite transactional.
@@luciad5988 not really, most live better lives in there native country. While America is advanced, its not always

I totally agree with you on that point Lolita.
David has such a good head on his shoulders and a pitch perfect attitude. It's no wonder he succeeded.
For a lot of women, their beauty and sexuality is the first form of currency they have. Cant blame them for using it to get out a limited life.
So true and so sad :'(
Agreed. I bartended in my early 20s, wearing low cut shirts, making *good* money, enough to pay for college. The difference between our situations happens to be the country I was born in, which inherently provides me with more opportunities
Sad to see a woman having to use her beauty and sexuality to get ahead!
@@hellotrees529 you must be sad every time you watch TV or scroll Instagram or even go to your local bar or restaurant lol
@@hellotrees529 I don’t know if that’s really sad, everyone uses their resources. It’s no different than athletes who get into college based on their athletic ability who would never have been able to get in on academics.
A few years ago, I would've had negative views on finding love in this manner. And now I think, how is this any different than online dating? Love can be found anywhere in the world. With the internet at our fingertips, it is easily accessible. How these men are going about it seems much safer since you get to meet the prospects in person. Sure, you pay a lot of money but you're paying for having some level of security and they seem to be very respectful of each other. I'm sure there are men who probably aren't genuinely looking for love but that also happens within your own country. Love has zero boundaries. I hope David and Cristina are happily married.
They are, 8 years now :)
Honestly, I don't think this has anything to do with love. I don't know if this makes me cynical or realistic.
@@DogGran I was hoping and wondering if they were.... I was looking for an updated video about David. Where did you see they are still together?
Meyoua... Your comment is so true! David also appears to be a very nice catch. I to hope they are still together, and very happy.
@@trishaw.237 Be honest ... David is a bit goofy ... not so much of a catch.

The real superstars are the translators. They can translate anything to these ladies. Lol # Shout out!
If any of these men would have bothered to learn Spanish they would have first pick of the women.
I love their story. What a beautiful woman, on the outside, and more importantly the inside. I’m happy for them both. Genuine. Best to you both!
Honestly my husband & I knew very quickly that what we had was special and heading somewhere… we’ve now been married for 21 years this month in fact! Together for 22 & have 2 amazingly healthy, intelligent, sweet, beautiful , & well mannered children! We are still very much in love, still get butterflies on date night!! He’s very much my King & I his Queen..
I don’t think that it’s impossible what they’re doing. If they are serious about finding someone special of course. At least they’ve cut out all the games & the push & pull! They’re very up front about what each other wants.

David y Maria Cristina (y su hija)...a sweet little story. I hope that they're still happy together.
Rumor has it, she left David after he was mistreating her daughter. David ended up falling in love with Maria's sister, Guadalupe.
I'm glad it worked out for David & Maria Christina. But look, he's decent, attractive, maybe a 5 or to some women, a 6. You don't see the guys that are REPULSIVE scoring too often, they are the ones that get ghosted. He has a really good PERSONALITY, laughing constantly. He also had plenty pictures OF HIS HOUSE which is decent on a good street, good area. So he's decent all around. Some of these guys live on strange farms, in strange areas, remote or ugly areas, so besides being repulsive, their environments also are not inviting. Then there's the zombies. One guy here was a zombie, besides being ugly, his personality was a toad. And that poor skinny girl explained herself to him in English - & in the next breath he said to the interpreter, 'Are we moving?" {to the next table} No tact. Toad. Repulsive.
Yes,he was a creep.
I think that guy got turn off because when that girl explained that she has a small daughter and lives with her family and siblings,he just thought that is too much hassle
Lmao so when a guy rejects a woman it's bad but women reject most men and mock them too unless they are really handsome 🤷🏻♂️
The double standards 🤣
Ouch! Yeah, that was sad. You could hear both of them dying inside a little. He sure didn’t like the idea of an energetic toddler, and a multi-generational family. The poor girl seemed to be on the verge of tears throughout the event, and his gum-chewing lack of interest didn’t help. Karen strikes me as a romantic who wanted to be someone’s special woman. Not temperamentally suited for the meat market. I hope she found someone who could give her some of what she needs.
What a lovely couple! I pray that they have many, many years of happiness and can grow old together.
I want David to be happy! He deserves everything what a nice guy.
David looks like an old McLovin’
The comment I was about to make!!😂😂😂
So "half of all men end up engaged"... I've seen these shows before, they propose the first week, but it very rarely works put. So why doesnt the company state how mant end up married, and how many end up married fro longer than 2 years? I think we all know the answer ls to that
Reverse the situation and let us say he meets another American woman in the US and then proposes a week later. What are the odds it will last in the US?
With the cultural and language differences as even bigger barriers, plus she needs to move to his country, learn his culture and government system, plus she has to learn how to drive, the odds have to be very high that it would not last. My question is why would she want to even try? I bet all these women get very lonely for the first year or so. I would feel sorry for her.
I’m hoping David gets all the happiness he wants. That man deserves it.
I'm looking forward for David and cristina. Both of them are matured and independent . I hope for the best!
Huge red flag that 'fitting inside a suitcase' is on Jamar's checklist
also the "she has beautiful teeth" like damn is she a horse?
I saw the show last night and am so happy that David and mari Christina are happily married. this is a true love story involving two mature genuine people and it warms my heart. What happened to Karen? she seemed sincere as well. anyone know?
My grandfather who was In his 40s met my grandma at an Hospital when he had to go to a specialist for his missing eye. Grandmother was just 5 years younger then him and was an nurse. Nobody thought he would come home with an wife but he did. Honestly do you know anyone who meet there wife or husband at an club, bar or party. My mom ran into my dad with her bike.
I think the current stats are 85% of americans meet their spouses through work. My husband was my boss, we met when I was 18 and he was 21 and we've been married 16 years.

was not expecting to see a heartwarming love story when i decided to watch this episode!
Do they do extensive background checks on these guys? To me it seems dangerous for these women to meet foreign strangers.
^^^^ this !
Yeah, can't imagine been taken away to a new country and not knowing if could end traffic or so because don't really know the man only what they want to present.
It's even more dangerous for Americans to travel to Colombia.
You are 100% correct but consider this.
Most of these woman come from countries that are already dangerous. The one woman in this was from the Red Zone in Columbia. Meeting a stranger and leaving the country could still arguably be safer. Ukraine is another common destination, a country in civil war.
Most of these guys who complain about american women and marry girls from 3rd world countries are usually strongly xenophobic and racist.
What an incredible story about couples getting together and marriage in just a few weeks I think it’s brilliant for everyone and not to be alone
Thank You for taking the time to create and share this wonderful video with us all ❤️.
Even those producing the show don't understand love. Love is the sacrificial commitment to look out for the best of another. It's an action, not an emotion. The question is whether they are compatible and that cannot be known easily when people are from different cultures and speak little to none of the other person's language. Sparks/chemistry/compatibility are important for a marriage, but the commitment to love as unconditionally as possible, is a choice.
This video made me cried.yes Lisa I think these two are real,he didnt unrealistically choose the younger and prettier one.and they both are good looking.
Thanks Miss Lisa for the nice video.
Always love you and shows
Davis is awesome. Love this couple. I hope they make it.
