Is it possible for two people from different countries have a love relationship?
Hi everybody,

I know that this site or platform isn't appropriate to ask something like that, but I didn't know where to ask this question...

The thing is, I will tell you guys briefly what's going on. I met an american man online and we chatted sometimes...
I fell in love for him (I'm not more a teenager. I've surprised myself, because this kind of thing, it hadn't happening for a while and how could I fell in love for someone that I even don't know personally? Well, the true matter isn't that one...) and I only dated brazilians before. My question is: do you guys think that a brazilian and an american can be a couple? Did you guys live a love story like this or know any case about it?

I'm looking forward to know about your opinions!!

Hi Gah. Firstly, I want to say to be careful,there are many great kind people online,also some people with their special intentions.

So my suggestion is to learn more about each other,and meet in real life at an appropriate time,be careful for the first time.
Good luck:)

As you say, this isn't exactly a dating advice column but at least it is an international forum so to that extent it's applicable. In my view a man is a man anywhere and a woman is a woman anywhere. As they say, we are the same species. While marrying within your own country and culture ensures a certain cultural compatibility, this is by no means essential.

I've seen Indians married to Americans, British, French, Italians, Spanish, Russians, Germans and Australians among others. I've also seen north or east Indians married to south or central Indians, and believe me that's about as international as anything else in terms of language, customs and culture.

You may be asked "what do you know of a man from a faraway place like that?" but that's an invalid question. In reality you know or don't know just as much about a man who lives across the street. The pairing game is always a bit of a gamble. All you have to do is to try to know him before as best as humanly possible.

Of course, it's possible for two people from different countries to have a love relationship. My parents are from different countries (married for 50 years), my husband and I are from different countries and most of the couples in my circle of friends are from different countries. There are challenges though: linguistic and cultural barriers and also deciding in which country to settle to be together. But all in all it's a very rewarding experience.

A friendly reminder to female members here though: Be careful when contacted online by men (also here on italki) who rave about your beauty and declare their love to you. There are many romance scammers online. Here on italki, they often pretend to be American. They often have very generic names, say that they're soldiers (stationed in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia etc.) or doctors working for the UN. They pretend to be widowed or divorced. Their avatars show attractive middle-aged men. A red flag is when the man is starting to ask for money. Here is more information.

I receive messages by romance scammers here on italki on a daily basis. Of course, it is also possible to find real love here on italki. But before falling for someone, make sure that they are who they say they are.

A lot of American and European guys visit Brazil and end up either staying in Brazil because they met a Brazilian woman, or they return to their countries with a new Brazilian wife. These are very common. There are actually whole communities of gringos who just want to meet a Latina woman.

However, I don't know how many of these relationships or marriages actually last over the long-term. Someone with a Western cultural / educational background would enjoy a lot of aspects of Brazilian culture, but also potentially disagree with some other aspects of Brazilian culture. You and your new American guy need to discuss these topics as they come up during the relationship. Why don't you just take it slowly first? Meet him in the U.S. or ask him to come to Brazil. Things should be relatively easy in the beginning. The real test comes when a couple is living together for a few months up to a year.

of course it is possible. But there is one thing u should know that is because of the educational and cultural distinctions, there may be a lot of disagreements between u two than u fist thought. from my own experience , love is something not that powerful or could change a individual 's personality, its something u need to really take care of. if u marry him. both of u will make a lot concessions.u Should know that. I am not trying to persuade u not to follow ur true feelings I just want to list some basic facts for u to make a better decision. Good luck.
