Do you think that people who have arranged marriages abroad?
Answer:
As long as they keep it as it is now, the spouse has to prove he/she can provide for their other half without claiming benefits.
Yes, I have a friend from India who is having an arranged marriage (he thinks) this summer. They should definitely be allowed to be a citizen of your country, if you're going to live there. I might not be the person to answer, though, since I don't really know too much about cultures that practice this. Maybe some of them don't allow their family member to leave.
no not really it bad that arranged marriages still go on today god if id marryed someone my parents liked where would the fun be in dating men they hated just to piss them off
Well, you can only get away with it if you are from that culture. Try bringing in another non-EU national who is not from that culture. They wouldn't accept your arranged marriage and there are procedures to check whether your marriage is arranged or genuine. So why not apply the same thing to people from those kind of cultures?
I didn't have an arranged marriage but I did get married abroad. As we decided we would continue to live in England, it made sense for my husband to get citizenship - he wanted to integrate and also it makes things easier when we travel together (in terms of restrictions, etc).
These days in order to become a British citizen it requires more than just filling out a form; you have to have lived in the UK legally for a number of years, take the citizenship test (which ain't exactly a piece of cake - my hubby now knows way more about the British Legal system and Government than I ever did) and take part in a formal citizenship ceremony.
Its fine for indians or africans to say i don't want you dating a white person or a person of another colour, but if a white dad does'nt want his daughter to date or even marry a black or asian suddenly they are racist. 'oh my dads racist he won't let me date my black/asian boyf' blah blah. Maybe the dad just prefers to stay within his own race, just like the asians and blacks. They should stay in their respective countries and try to improve where they come from instead of sitting on street corners, like they do in brixton in the summer, cultivating 'ghetto's'. Chavs are worse, they walk around trying to be black, with no regard to the history. they just see themselves as small and worthless, as this is what they are portrayed as in the music they gorge themselves on. Personally I just stare at them till they say 'whats you problem' then i walk over and scare the **** out of them. I love it. I love telling them to pull the tackie bottoms up and then wanting to say something back to me but are embarrassed cos' i'm dressed smart and deep down they know theyr'e just immature angry idiots with no minerals whereas i'm well up for the fight. I'm a vigilante. If I see them smashing up bus stops or chucking eggs at OAPS then i'm there in a shot, taking on up to 7 yobs at a time. once again they are all mouth and no trousers. They will never win, cos i'm not french.
Actually a very respected psychologist, Erich Fromm, wrote a very good chapter in his "Art of Loving" on why arranged marriages were superior to the "romantic" fantasy of the West. But we're on MyTend, I don't expect any of you to have ever heard of Fromm.
Back to the question: of course. Legally, an "arranged marriage" is not any different of any other type of marriage. The motives do not matter, since they are personal and impossible to truly know to third parties. For all we know, both partners in an "arranged marriage" could also love each other in the traditional "romantic" sense so prevalent in the West.
If you marry someone from another country, for example America or Australia or whatever in UK, and if your spouse goes back to where he/she is from, would you want to stay in UK, because you got married in UK, or go together and gain citizenship over there? Think about it.
