Hi, Very Happy
I believe that the marriage is like a contract. As a result, it has obligations and benefits. No matters where you are from. The dynamic is the same. However, International marriage has the potential to be much more. Very Happy

Yes, i certainly agree with your thought about international marriage because i had girlfriend before, which was really amzing to me not only for her good appearance but also we have had good relationship hold for long time and we saw eye to eye on almost everything. Then i'll say, if i have one more chance for choosing my companion that i won't care about difference of nationality between us. good luck!

Well! After I saw your message, I think that is good idea. Maybe I am going to change to the International marriage in the future.

I think it's ok!!
I am an exchange student from Taiwan to US
I'm learning their culture and every other things...
It's a good thing!~
But....In married part///////????
I don't know...
It's hard because first, you have to learn second language,
Second,Some words is difficult to understand...
You will mix the meaning of some words...
Just like ball and boll...
It's almost same voice but have different means.......
So.....If you really love each other,
I think it's ok!! You have to take care of yourself..
Gook Luck!!

Hi, everybody! I think marriage itself is a very complicated matter. Love someone and live with that person are two very different things. If the couple comes from a different background, the situation can get really complicated.

What we have decided is to liver here in the US until she is five then move to Bundang, Korea for her education (Korean elementary and mid-schools FAR exceed our here in the US for teaching).

Wouldn't you be concerned that your mixed-race child will receive a lot of bullying in an all-Korean school? Or would you send your child to an international or American school in Korea? As gawdawful as American public schools are, I'd still prefer our future daughter raised here in multi-racial U.S. rather than in her mom's insular Whoville town in Japan. I've read too many horror stories about the isolation and rejection suffered by mixed-race kids in xenophobic Japanese schools.

what is the problem you think ? uh?

if you get married someone who live in another country

you have a chance to pick up another language

your future son is too. it is extreamly extream i belive

i think learning other laungaes is so hard that many students are giving

up their work while studing some languages because they have a few

chance to be exposed to other cultures

but if you have a forgien girlfriend or wife

it can be a problem

the more you love your lover , the faster you will advance to the higher

steps in other languages

if chances come to you don;t be loose ! grasp it

[ well... who want to look over my post and tell me what is wrong ...]
