So my friend got married...
... to a girl half-way across the world..
... whom he's known for five weeks...
... for five thousand dollars.
:eek:
Today, one of my oldest friends got back from a five-week vacation to his native Asian country. He called me and said that he got married. I almost pissed my pants laughing. Then he told me he wasn't kidding. It still hasn't sunk in for me, let alone for him. He still doesn't understand what he's done and what consequences his actions will have on his life.
When he went there, he was immediately introduced to the daughter of his parents' friends who still live in Asia. He was offered five thousand dollars to marry her and sponsor her to come to Canada. He took the deal because the marriage wasn't supposed to be for real. But after five weeks of sleeping in the same bed and taking her virginity, something happened. He fell for her.
Now he's planning to stay married to her. He's gonna help her come to Canada and move out of his house. He's 20 years old and has no education or career. This girl is probably younger, doesn't speak english and has no marketable skills. If he does this, he's ed for life. End of story. And the scariest thing is that he's got no clue.
He still doesn't understand that this was the plan all along. He couldn't have "just" sponsored her because she has no one here and would have no place to live. He thinks he chose to marry her and chose to fall in love with her, but in reality, he never had a choice. It was made by others. His destiny was decided by others without his knowledge or involvement. |

Oh, i'm sure they've planned that too. A kid would seal the deal and force him to stay with her. Surely they couldn't have left that out? |

someone i know recently did this too...and he has a girlfriend that he has been with for a while.
the people who arranged it came and picked him up in the middle of no where at an early hour in the morning...drove him to the airport and off he went to marry this girl and get $5000 when all is said and done.
i still can't imagine doing this....but with this happening so often...it seems like it is getting easier and easier to buy your way into Canada.... |
