Steve,
Just letting you know I responded to your post below about Betty Brodrick.

KenC,

Seems sometimes we get to know people, we know very little about, and it opens our eyes a little. I had no idea you were married to such a woman. I think Broderick was a control freak. It took 5 guards to get her out of her cell at the jail to try to move her to a more secure or clean area (something like that). She wanted it her way. I wonder if your X wasn't a little of this ilk? Broderick certainly did the same things you are talking about. Of course it was all her husband's fault. He made her do the crazy things she did.

My uncle was in the same boat. Same scenario. He married a gal named Judy. She was 5'2" and wighed 130 lbs when they met. A year after they were married, she weighed 235, and within 5 years was topping the scales at 310 lbs. She was really hateful, greedy, and made everyones life a living hell. She wanted to control everything. The last 5 years of my uncles life were one nightmare after another. When he died, Judy broke into his house (he had moved out), and his will disappeared, along with all his personal papers, financial papers, etc. She changed the locks on the doors, and Roger's 3 daughters couldn't get in. The estate went to court and Judy got half. My uncle told me he was leaving her nothing. My father saw his will. Unfortunately he died really suddenly of lung cancer (5 packs a day). But then who wouldn't smoke if you were married to Judy. He own children have disowned her. They hate her. Everyone hates her, but she has about $750,000 in the bank now. And that is what she loves most.

Steve,
Yes, unfortunately my ex is very similar in the control department.  Seven years later, I am still the bad guy in her mind's eye.  But things have a way of evening out.  I wouldn't trade the last three years with Lena for the 20+ I spent with her.  I would say I wasted that time if it were not for the two great kids I have.

3 years! 3 years I hear? I hope the nay-sayers are reading! I know you have had some, even here on this board. I am not talking about getting on your butt, like I have done on ocassion. I am talking about the "it won't last bunch!" I have seen your photo of you and your wife. She is not lacking! If she were half as nice as her appearance, then you couldn't do much better anywhere! Lessons, unfortunately, are usually learned.

Ya know I thought I'd pipe in here with a few words from our detractors.

I quit telling my friends that I was seeking a foreign bride because no one seems to understand.  The most commonly cited reasons are:

1) She's just after her green card.  I'd be afraid she'd leave after she got it

2) Yull have no idea what your getting in a woman.

It's stories like KenC's, the one above, and a few I have first hand experience with, that make me feel better about this decision.

You can marry a woman because you think it's right (who doesn't) and she can change in an instant.  I really sobered up when it happened to a friend of mine.  I knew his girl quite well, and never saw one single warning sign (until it was too late).

So in response:

1) Well at least I'll have one solid reason why she married me.  I can guess at the rest just like everyone else, but at least I'll have that much...

2) Talk to your unhappily divorced friends, and see what they have to say about it.  No one EVER says - "It just didn't work out, so we parted friends" - and means it.

Your cynical infusion for the day....

Clay,
How can you possibly know what changes will happen to any relationship?  You can only hope that yours will evolve in a way that is mutually satisfying to you both.  Sure there are RW that are green card sharks, but on the same hand there are AW that will do most anything to get herself a man of substance.  So what's the difference?  None in my book.  As for after a relationship goes bad, the AM has the "scammer" card to play in addition to all the rest of the sour grapes.  LOL.  We have a regular poster here, Wayne, who is man enough to say he himself is to blame for his marriage and subsequent divorce to a RW.  I have a great deal of respect for him because of that.

Bingo.

That is basically what I was trying to say.  NOBODY knows what will happen in a relationship.  And toads who wanna claim "scammer" are the same ones not willing to honestly assess their participation in the relationship.  It's a two way street...

It's just that the UnBelievers think there is something to lose by chasing Russian Women.  As if the pitfalls I will face chasing a RW are worse than the pitfalls I face in my own backyard...  My point being that whichever road a fella chooses, the bonuses and pitfalls ARE GOING to even themselves out...  The difference we are trying to acheive is inherent in the social and cultural differences of these women.

Less Feminism = More Femininity = Happy Smiling Mens!!!!
