Thumbs up

I (English woman) have a Dominican boyfriend, I met him in August, he joined me on holiday for a week after we met and he rang me when he said he would so we have carried on our relationship by phone everyday and e-mail, msn. I went back for another 3 weeks and we lived in an appartment. He has applied for a visa for a visit to England, but just been declined and basically told we should marry! I do feel very srongly but feel I would like him to come to this country and see me here and meet my friends and family, before marrying. Is this just a crazy idea? Is the only way of getting him here, by marrying him first?

He has very little money and I don't have loads! Eventually we would prefer to settle in the DR, but probably need to be in the UK for awhile. I am going again hopefully for a month in January... any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

Marrying someone just so they can come to your country to meet your friends and family is crazy for sure.

Please go back many times to visit before committing to such a thing as marriage. Learn the laws of your country and your responsibility in doing such a thing.

Read everything in the sankie forum, re-read them, then read again and again ... if you're still convinced he's the one, listen to Anna.

Don't worry much, by the time you settle there, financially you'll be equals ....

Btw, delacruz doesn't sound English

No, of course not.
Many have done it...




.... and regretted it.
But your 'de la Cruz' is different.
So nothing wrong with marrying him.
