Would you leave your country in pursuit of love?
The advent of the Internet and online dating means that the world is there for exploring and love is no longer confined to the space in one’s country. Many people have found love online, but when it comes to the commitment part — marriage or living together — often there comes problems with logistics.
Would you leave your country and live abroad for the rest of your life to be with the love of your life?
Karlus, 37:
Yes. If it’s love I can’t see why not.
Jonathan, 28:
I would. It would be hard leaving the only life I know behind me, but if I fell in love I would leave to go and be with her.
Nicole, 34:
I would have to visit there first to know if moving there would be the best option for me.
Kia, 25:
Yes I would, in a heartbeat.
Kurt, 33:
It depends on where because if she was from Iran or Iraq or any of those countries always in war and full of suicide bombers then she can stay there if she doesn’t want to leave and I will stay right here, because I’m not going there to get killed.
Latonya, 22:
It would have to be true love for me to leave my family for a man who lives aboard. Being alone in a new place requires a lot of time to adapt to not only a new way of living but also living with the one you love for the first time.
Lenny, 46:
I think I’m too old to relocate, knowing that I am a business owner here and have other investments pending. This type of situation wouldn’t really work out in terms of me moving because my business comes first. It sounds cold but I would be losing a lot if I was to walk away from what I have spent years to build.
Lincoln, 38:
If she is the one then I would move to be with her. It would take some getting used to, but once I settle in with her I’m sure things would work out.
Marcia, 36:
Yes I would, even if I didn’t love him or care much about him, as long as it was a place where I could survive. Jamaica’s rough and everyone is looking a way out.
Ralston, 39:
My cousin relocated to London for a woman he fell in love with and things didn’t work out so great for him so it has me wondering if this was something I would do. Moving to a place where you don’t know anyone can be intimidating.
Michael, 33:
I have been through it but didn’t relocate, only visited. It was good because I knew I was only there for six weeks and could come back home. I would have relocated if that relationship had worked out.
Lydia, 31:
I would relocate for the man that I love but only if his living conditions were better than mine as I would hate to jump from frying pan into fire. There has to be more pros than cons when I’m considering it.
