Carbon copy of my story

Until recently, Khris, I was also dating a guy who I felt a lot of chemistry with. But he was very forward about marriage and a visa. No, not every relationship is a nightmare, but when you are being pushed into nuptials for a single purpose-visa-then you are not free to be yourself without constantly looking over your shoulder. I know you are in love and it is hard, but ask yourself how miserable you would be in 2 or 3 years when his papers come through and he leaves you flat?
