Show #007: History of Mail Order Brides and Marriage in the United States

Original Broadcast Date: October 8th, 2009

In this recorded video (from live), host John Adams and guests discuss the history of mail order brides and the ever changing culture of marriage in the United States and abroad.

Why does the stigma of the term "Mail Order Brides" continue to fester into the 21st century, hundreds of years after it was coined?

And how has the culture of marriage in the United States changed - or remained the same?

John gets some very interesting points on the table and meets them head on. (1 hr 09 min)

Long Term Relationships That Last

In response to a request from the U.S. Congress several years ago, the U.S. Justice Department issued a report relative to immigration and international marriage issues that stated "it would appear" that marriages between U.S. citizens and foreign nationals "would tend to last longer" than that of domestic marriages on the whole. This is a subtle way of saying that the data reflects that marriages between people from different countries and cultures in the Untied States are generally more successful in the long term. There may be numerous reasons for this - if this high-level research is accurate.

Through our experience, we have found that single individuals serious about finding a lifemate are often looking for values and attitudes that they feel they can't find at home. They are frustrated with the opportunities and options that they have available to them within their immediate region. Despite the apparent challenges, they realize that they can expand their romantic horizons (and probably should) to search the world for that ONE special person that is perfect for them … forever.

Lasting love is possible. The chemistry and connection you are seeking IS possible without compromise. No matter what you are debating with yourself, the time is now to, at the least, explore your opportunity. The statement that we most often hear from clients who have employed our services is "Why didn't I do this years ago?"

If now is not the right time - when will be the right time? Why waste potentially years of your life because you talked yourself out of investigating your opportunity right now because it's not yet the right time - or you are skeptical of the international matchmaking process without at least exploring it. It is the right time. You may be pleasantly surprised at how easy, adventurous, and affordable the process can be. At this very moment, you have absolutely nothing to lose.
