I met my husband a year ago and we recently got married on June 8th.
I will be moving to Germany on the June 30th.
He is a German national and I am African-American.
I am anxious and excited about my new married life in another country.
Ironically, my husband's beloved grandmother was a very active Nazi wife during WWII,
but she has accepted my husband's marriage with open arms and so has his family.

I am an African-American mother of three, married to a Mexican man.
I had two African-American sons before we got married, he had no children,
and I just gave birth to our first child, who is a girl.
My boys have never had a father, so it is hard to get use to having a father and my husband has never been a father before,
but now he is the father to two boys who are not of the same race as he is.
The differences in food, language, and clothing not to mention hair.
Mexican don't have to put oil or grease in their hair but African-American people do.
We brush our hair different and cut and style our hair different.
Now, we have a daughter, who we have to teach two different cultures too, because both are her heritage.
We are trying to teach my sons the Spanish language, but I have always been strong on teaching them their black history.
My husband is ready and willing to learn about black history and I'm having fun teaching him what I know.
Yeah, in my household it's a mad house, but all in all, I think we are doing pretty good.

My husband and I met on Matchdoctor.com in June of 2000.
He started to e-mail me as a joke because I said I only wanted a Christian,
then I began to realize that Islam wasn't what I thought it was at all (I knew nothing about it),
then I came to Egypt in September of 2000 for a 2 week visit and we were married by the end of the first week!
I converted to Islam after 6 months (actually reverted since we believe this to be the true religion).
We live here in Egypt and now have a beautiful daughter :)

More than 1 year after our engagement. I just tell her these were tests of our love, but don't get discouraged if you really love that person you will do anything to be with them.
Now I wait the long road for the immigration process and hopefully in a couple months we can be together here in America.

Although both of our families are supportive of us, our greatest problem so far has been deciding where to live, Italy or USA.
Learning Chinese is simply not possible, and after 5 years in Italy, my Italian is functional but not perfect.
The problem is that Italians have difficult accepting a foreigner who is a professional and qualified for the few desirable jobs around.
I wonder if this is a common experience for spouse of other Italians who tried to live and work in Italy.
Although Italy is undeniably a beautiful country, I wonder if I would ever be accepted.

Hafize (Turkey) and BJ (U.S.A.) Lownie
Nashua, NH, U.S.A.
E-mail: bj©firstclassproposals.com
Hello/merhaba.
We met in Sept. 2001 when BJ, (originally from NY but has lived in NH,
just outside of Boston, for the past 20+ years)was working in Richmond England.
He was on assignment to Compaq Computer Corp., helping them build a Proposal Center.
While there, he frequented a restaurant which was managed by Hafize.
Hafize had been in England for 3 years, having gone there to learn English and to study.
BJ and Hafize talked...alot...went out...the theater being a favorite activity as Hafize is an actress....
got to know each other...and fell in love (sigh...'ahh.'...'Isn't that romantic?'...etc.).
BJ and Hafize were engaged in June of 2001
(he proposed while they were swimming in the Med off the cost of southern Turkey)
and were married in England (at Westminister...well...not THAT Westminster...
but at the registry office which is quite nice as well) on Nov. 7th of that year.
We started INS proceedings immediately (Nov. 9th).
The short version - Hafize arrived in the US on March 19th and received her green card that day.
(A 2 year temporary..to be made permanent after two years of marriage).
Four months from start to finish..a relatively short period of time compared
to many other INS proceedings...as many of you know first hand.
The longer version - We were told that we had to file through VT, as that is the processing center for NH residents...
so immediately after marrying in England, BJ flew back to the states to get things moving.
Mailed all paperwork overnight, receipted etc....only to have it go nowhere within "the system".
We were also told Hafize had to interview in England as that is where we were married
so she remained there to be available for the interview.
All of this proved to be FALSE!
When we started proceedings in the US, we were told it would take 6 months (at a minimum)
and that it could be more than a year.
When we hadn't heard anything by Jan. 1st (2 months)
we flew to Turkey and went to the US embassy in Ankara.
At this point, post Sept. 11th, the embassy was on VERY high alert
and it was difficult to get in to see someone...but we were finally able to.
At the embassy, they asked us WHY we hadn't started proceedings from there....
as "the processing takes MUCH less time that way".
To this we explained we had been told we COULDN'T! Ugh!).
On their advice, we started a second set of proceedings
(all the paperwork..and associated fees needed to be done again. Ugh!)
...and were told we would be given an interview date...to be conducted in Ankara...within 12 weeks.
BJ flew back to the US, Hafize waited in Turkey this time.
BJ also called a few "friends in high places" (including a senator, a NH Supreme Court judge...
as well as a few high ranking Turkish government officials connected to Hafize's family)
and we were able to get an interview date 7 weeks out.
Not real soon...but sooner. The date arrived, all paperwork (by the pound at this point)
was in order for the interview and it all went well.
BJ and Hafize said goodbye to Hafize's family and headed for the US.
Hafize will have been in the US for 6 months on Sept. 19th.
Not sure where we'll ultimately settle down.
We'll probably do a few years in Turkey, so that BJ can learn Turkish and then...
well, that remains to be seen.
We would love to hear from other Turkish/American households.

My husband and I have limited vacation time, but I would love for them to have a chance to do some traveling.
Has anyone used any kind of tour company that caters to senior citizen Iranians traveling in the United States?
My parents-in-law have learned a little English, but it's like pulling teeth.
Does anyone have experience with helping their Iranian parents learn English in ways that are fun for them and make them excited about wanting to practice?
I look forward to sharing experiences with anyone else in the same boat as I am.
I appreciate finding this website. I'm glad someone thought to create it!
It's much needed, given how many differences exist between some cultures.

My name is Jennifer, I'm Puertorican but raised here in the U.S. Well my issue is I've been dating Anthony a white guy for about a year.
(He was previous married and has 2 kids). Well we are going to have a child together in Decem.(Its my first).
Anyway my issue is that the other day we were talking about race and racism and he asked me what I thought about something he has been thinking of.
He said that he would like to promote to his 2 son to date within their own race before dating any other race.
I said that he should do that since seeing that I'm not white and we are going to have a interracial child together.
I told him that he shouldn't tell his kids that because in the long run they are going to fall in love with whoever they want.
Plus they are going to experience racism while they are growing up they don't need to hear it at home.
He told me that he wanted them to be proud of where they come from and if I didn't.
I said that is different. I will teach our children where they come from but will not suggest or promote one race over another.
He turn around and said that I was being racist and not being opened minded in the whole situation.
Am I being racist because of that?

We met on the net, on December 2001. We were members of a dating service on Internet.
That was pretty amazing, actually. You just never realised that you can meet someone that you're going to spend the rest of your life from the net.
After first time of visit which is, I think on January 5 2002, Peter decided to buy me an engagement ring.
And he had to get back to Australia. But phone calls EVERYDAY! (no kidding), tons of emails, made us feel still close each other.
And at the third visit, Peter decided to talk with my parents about marriage.
Frankly, my parents disagreed with that as I haven't finished my studies. But we got their blessings anyway.
So, the wedding was on June 15th, 2002.
And here we are now, married, happily and we both are excited about our first baby,....which is expected to be born June 2003...

Margit Collin gilderson (Sweden) and Alan Gilderson (U.K.)
Viken, Sweden
E-mail: nrg228a©tninet.se
Met in Germany 1953, married 1956 (and still can't kick the habit).
Started married life in England (culture shock for Margit), moved in 1960 to Sweden (ditto for Alan) and still here.
One son, two daughters and five grandchildren, all living in Sweden.
I (Alan) have found a comfortable niche here as an English copywriter/translator and was much in demand until I retired.
There is some prejudice against foreigners in Sweden, especially with the heavy influx of refugees
from the world's trouble-spots in recent years, but nobody has ever given me a hard time.
British people are fairly well accepted, partly because they are North Europeans but also, I believe,
because they are a small and unobtrusive minority here and not regarded as a potential threat to the Swedish Way of Life.
When I first came here there was a lot of prejudice against Finns,
who were the largest minority, even though they are even more closely related to the Swedes.
They were viewed as troublesome poor relations - about the way the British regarded the Irish.
Even after 40 years I still occasionally shake my head about the Swedes' funny ways - as no doubt they do about mine.

We met through internet early 1998. I was then working in Singapore and Joe was in Germany.
We communicated with Emails and sometimes letters. It was from the third Email, we knew that we could click well.
We could discuss about almost everything, from music to politics to books and religions.
What happened later? We fell in love.
It was a relationship many thought that won't work and my mother was very very against it.
We managed to hold on and we made it. We got married in May 2000.
At the moment Germany is our home. You can find out more about us in our homepage.
We would like to get to know couples with similar background and other Malaysian/German couples.
Gute Idee, gut gemacht... auf unserer Website steht unsere Geschichte in Deutsch und Englisch, und wir sind auch gerade dabei
einen Club für Leute aus Malaysia und Singapore, die in Deutschland oder anderswo in Europa leben, aufzubauen...
Würden uns freuen, bei Euch gelistet zu werden - und auch von Euch zu hören...
Viele Grüße.

Hi all ..it started at 25 of August 2000 at night I was doing nothing and it was the first time for me on ICQ and she was the first person that I talk to on ICQ.
I started talking with message Hi ..do you like to talk ?
and she said yes and it was the first time for her to answer some one stranger for her on icq becouse of the bad people who use icq with bad way
..any way ..it started like that and talking every 3 day's and after that talking every 1 day and after that talking every day and night.
We did not have enough from talking about every thing that any one could think about...
and my Gosia tried to send me invitation 2 time's to visit Poland but it did not work for some resons (exactly 11 of September)
and at last she came to me with her father for one month in July 2002
and we did get married in Cairo at 24 of July 2002 and all of my family was happy becouse of her.
Her father was with Gosia becouse the tradition in Egypt is to ask the hand of the girl from the father
so he came with her and it was really great time for all of us.
Now we are planning wedding party in Poland for the Family here. At last from being lonly in life i had some one close to me to talk with...
and after from having just some one to talk with i have her now as my WIFE and family and every thing i have in this world and my love..
We come from two different religions, two different cultures but there is no differences between us AT ALL,
we laugh of the same jokes and we love and know how to talk, there is respect and love each one day of our life together.
It's the story from my side :) ok It was my Adel, now me..Gosia...
but I will not add anything more, becouse everything what my honey said is truth and I can tell all of You only,
that I can't imagine my life without my Adel, he is the second part of apple for me.
Each one morning we say "good morning my love" with big kisses, maby
It's so normal and simple but what's the best in all of that, that i'ts the pure and the strongest love I could only dream about,
but with Adel all my dreams came true.
I am the most happy girl around the world and proud of having Adel as my husband.
I love you Adel.
I love you my Gosia

E-mail: Jan.Suck©gmx.de
We've married in January in Accra, Ghana and are now starting the fight for the papers.
But we're hopeful, especially because the man responsible for immigration in Heidelberg told me that from his view she should be here quite soon.
So maybe her first thing in Germany is "Ostereier suchen" (da weiß ich leider nichts englisches dazu..)!
We would be interested in the experiences of other African-German couples, so feel free to email us.
Thank you!
