I have just received a offer for marriage from a young guy in India. My daughter who is also on the site has also received offers for marriage. I was wondering how often this happens, and if others have also had this happen.

I find it strange that someone I do not know or who knows me just wants to get married and not to reply if I do not want marriage.dunno dunno

I know this, first comes a flower, than one or two mails and an IM-request. After this the asking for marriage.
I think it is a big fake!
Just as if already in first email stands " I have fallen in love with you "

Kitty .. I am an Indian and know how some things are happening around here ... dont fall for it .....!!!

Pls dont fall for it .. I got a guy from US .. old guy who wanted to marry me ... so its not unusual ... i get wierd proposals everyday almost ... just dont bother .. thats all..

If someone interests you .. you can always get talking ...marriage is too distant yet !!

My daughter had a guy from spain who had left africa wanting to get married so he could leave spain and come to canada. At least he was honest he said it was the only way he was allowed to leave and he did not like living in spain and did not want to go back to africa.

My daughter was smart she said no, but he tried a couple of times to change her mind.scold

Its not just that much.. the issue gets too complicated as everyone must be knowing .. so dont marry someone you dont know well... would be my take on it.

I think that´s the cause. They dont wanna go back in a poor country.
I have got one mail, which the guy asked in the first mail ( after telling me, he´s falling in love with me) , Who hard it is to find work in Germany. The come to me is no problem, he has a residence permit.

Thats only scam. I delete it and block them.
