Even if you've met his family

Even so, Elissa, it may not mean much. The real issue with these marriages is that the real trouble starts after marriage.

The exact same thing happens with USA men and Russian women. The women act all nice and stuff, until they get over, get a greencard or some money, and then they learn English and are gone.

And if it is mostly a distance relationship, then it's harder for women, who are normally very good at detecting lies, to pick up on it over the phone or internet.

Listen, scams happen all the time, and I've learned that most women on here have been or are being scammed or lied in some way, shape or form.
