Don't want to renew wife's green card

[POA 175]

For my wife, I actually bought a RT ticket not only because it was cheaper but I also realized that it's possible it may not work out (luckily for us it did). I just made sure the return trip didn't pass the 90 day from entering the US, so she wouldn't incur a ban.

I'm curious if people talk about what they plan to do if the relationship doesn't work out.

We didn't talk about it too. Though now, we always joke about it. I haven't been homesick too. We got lucky.

Seems like a common story with Filipino girls. If she pulls any more nonsense, her family will probably disown her. They believe the words of other Filipinos like it is the gospel , but if you say something, they don't believe you. I have the same issue with my wife. I would cancel the daughter's petition and if your wife wants to leave, let her. She will be back soon enough when she sees that someone sold her a bridge. Whether or not you want her after she has been with another man is up to you. If I knew then what I know now, I never would have pursued a foreign woman. Women are women and I would have been better off with someone in my own country. Less hassle, expense and cultural difference. It starts out being cheaper, but by the time you pay for everything, you end up paying quite a bit. If you don't mind me asking, how old are you and your wife?? Just to share with you I am 43 and my wife is 24. I used to say to myself that bringing a girl to the USA from the phils was like getting a Mercedes Benz for a Hyundai price. Now I say I paid a Mercedes price and got a Hyundai that is almost out of warranty(lol)

Wow... it's hard to believe that your relationship failed.

Basically, you are telling us that the basis of your relationship is cost. American women are perceived to be more expensive? So you thought that a foreign woman from a poor country would worship you at your feet for rescuing her that she would never ask for anything (clothes, shoes, makeup, etc.) Your whole analogy of women to cars is very creepy. I'm not the over-sensitive PC type either and it bothers me. Apart from that your wife is entering the prime of her life while you are hitting your midlife crisis. Age in itself can be overcome, but not with (see above) working against her.

Sadly that mentality is pretty common among men who marry young women from the Philippines. Probably why I sadly can't take relationships between an older man and a younger filipino seriously, they just make me think of human trafficking.

keyboard warriors have all types of opinions based on their personal prejudices. Doesn't seem to matter who they marry, from where or the age difference.
