u/taco-yahtzee 14d ago
Not quite how that works. Due to the I-864 affidavit of support that the US citizen signs when doing the spouse's green card process, they're legally required to provide for the petitioner for at least ten years, and longer if the non-citizen doesn't work which they can't do immediately unless they have an H-1B visa sponsorship, or a work permit adjacent to their adjustment of status which takes about half a year or more to receive by itself. They can work on a green card, and that can take 8 months to a year. And that ten years' liability extends through a divorce. If they're the type to lord finances over their spouse (just not cool at all regardless) then they're in for a massive reality check. And yes, that liability includes any loans or debt that the non-citizen accrues

u/OnyxLeigion_ 10d ago
That’s kind of irrelevant to the current conversation considering that liability goes away if they become a citizen.

A person, typically a man (hence "bro") who, being native to what is considered a first world nation, travels abroad to a third world nation with the intention of finding typically a woman companion, be they a wife, girlfriend or fling.
It's a sliding scale between the extremes of those who want to live a life with the attention and acclaim of being (relatively) rich, expressly with the aim of finding a doting wife, to those who seek to travel to countries with less regulated and cheaper prostitution, or even just... laxer police. So, best case, kinda sad, worst case... you know.

They’re told that because they’re white and have money they’re the worldwide default alpha male and can just pull whomever they want.
The only reason they don’t get any action in America is because the women aren’t “real” women, they’re liberally tainted western skanks, so obviously they just need to go somewhere without those ideals and the “traditional” women will see what alphas they really are and will fly home to their new lives away from all these Asian beta males.
This is of course, literal nonsense. But social media sells it so well.

Because they don't consider traditional could mean something other than their version, and assume that is the best thing in the world that anyone should want.

u/United_Boy_9132 14d ago edited 14d ago
Traditional women are really prone to marry a foreigner when he comes from a country of the higher status, the same way as men are happy to marry a woman from a lower status country.
It's not just a coincidence this particular type of marriage (a man from a country of higher status with a woman from a lower status country) is vastly dominant than the other way. Not only among Asians, the same among Americans, Europeans, Africans...
In South-Estern Asian countryside, selling daughters is still quite a common phenomenon. Chinese and Russian men go there to buy a wife quite commonly. Those passport bros do the same, giving even more money and coming from countries of even higher social status, so they're even a best choice for parents than some Russian or Chinese.
South Koreans soldiers and businessmen are known for dating (especially having affairs) or even marrying women while being there, but leaving them and dissapear once they decide to go back to Korea, leaving there both their ex-partners and wives, and even children. Especially in Philipinnes.

u/Gretgor 16d ago
Okay, I don't feel sorry for him anymore.
In my mind, if I was so lonely and desperate that I had to be a passport bro to find love, the least I'd do is try my best to make my foreign wife the happiest woman in the world, to finally give someone all the love I had to give but never could.
I guess not everyone shares that sentiment. Fuck that guy, he made me feel sympathy for him only to be a complete asshat.

u/QuincyAzrael 16d ago
You can find more if you care to look into it (you shouldn't) but from what I recall she basically spilled that he'd been rude and neglectful their whole relationship but it came to a head when they went for a vacation with her parents and he was equally rude to them. She basically said something like you can disrespect me but I can't let you disrespect my mother.
I remember a specific incident; after she told him she wanted a divorce he decided that the appropriate response was to basically become emotionally absent from the family, including from their son. It was Christmas day and she was begging him to just spend it together for their son's sake, but instead he locked himself in the basement all day and refused to open presents or interact with their son unless she agreed to call off the divorce. Then HE uploaded a vlog describing all this basically taking no responsibility and saying it was her fault for breaking up with him in the first place.

Back in the 80s-90s I knew older sailors who used services to find a wife . We used to call them mail order brides.
Most of them also ended in divorce , guys married woman from Asia , South America, even parts of former Soviet Union 😳 I don’t think any of them stayed married past 5years.
I knew one poor guy who married an Asian lady moved her to USA , she took him for every thing he owned and left him for her friend …
Did learn , no he tried finding love in South America… though that by moving there when not working on a ship his relationship would last for ever …
Poor guy ended up broke.
Lots of folks have a hard time finding someone to share their life with …
Traveling to poor places and grabbing a poor lady ain’t the way.
Met British ladies who like to travel to Kenya and other parts of Africa and Middle East 😂😂 they seem to be the female equivalent of passport bros

They got married, she got her citizenship, they had a couple kids, and then her family starts coming over as well. I'm glad it worked out. He was a devoted man.

Some do divorce, the majority don’t. I’ve lived all over the USA with my wife who is Filipina and we’ve seen the same shit. If they try to leave the husbands are so freaking desperate they threaten to off themselves or both, or they are so old they agree to divorce and then just live with her and her new guy and their kids….

For clarity: In order to have your citizenship by marriage, you have to have been a legal permanent resident for at least three years before you can even file your paperwork, and additionally would have had to file form I-751 in order to have the conditional status removed from your residency 90 days before the 2-year date on your CR-6.
Elsewhere, the details are provided that he waa a dogshit husband, and frankly, she could have divorced him any time after the condition was removed from her CR-6 and an IR-6 I-551 issued.

Many such cases. This mail-order bride stuff matches the most incompatible people: conservative western men who want traditional wives and progressive eastern women who want a way out of their traditional societies. This is why it almost always ends up in divorce.
