I am happy this man is now home.
However, there are innumerable women whom this man could have found right here in the US.
slinking off to a foreign country to find a wife is rather distasteful to me.
especially slinking off to a crappy, Socialist country to find a spouse.
Back in the 90’s I had a PC that I built, and an internet connection. A friend of mine would come over once a week just to visit a singles chat room. Eventually, he decided to open a singles chat for Christians when MSN had that. Facebook wasn’t a thing yet. It didn’t take but a few weeks for his chatroom to hop big time. There were hundreds of chatters in his room. One day he received an email from a woman, and they hit it off. She was from the Philippines, a doctor. He had a face impediment and so did she. It wasn’t very long before they met in person, she was living in Canada, so she flew in to meet him. Over a year or two, they fell in love, and they married. But she had to return to Canada because her visa ran out. He put the process thru the paces, and got her to be able to come in legally as a permanent resident. And then she became a citizen, got her pharmacy licence because the US wouldn’t accept her MD credentials, but did honor some of her efforts.
They’ve been married ever since, and have a child.
He’d been all over the world during his years in National guard, but that special someone wasn’t found till that chatroom happened. It took almost two years from their wedding until she could come “home” to her new husband, but they did it. It was agonal for them at times.
There may be 350 million or so people in this country, but you never know where this special person will be found.
Both of them relief heavily on God to bring them together from around the world.
I do hope this Neely freed man and his wife, the best.
Maybe she was a fellow Mormon? Who knows why people do the idiotic things they do.
That did seem a little odd. Just heard on TV that he met her on the Internet.
My wife came from Colombia to be an American and is one of the most ferocious patriots I’ve ever seen. She became a citizen a year before we got married. I’m certain there are many wonderful American women, I’ve dated many of them but God sent my wife here for me, I absolutely believe that. After more than 20 years I still tell people I treat her like an angel. She may actually be one.
Meeting people online can be dangerous;-}
