"I was in my early 20s when I met him. Initially, we sort of had a fling, but then we kept talking and fell in love pretty quickly and intensely."
"We got married about a year after we met. We were really in love, but it was also partly for visa reasons."
A 38-year-old woman with an 11-year-old daughter met her future husband in her early 20s. The relationship began as a casual fling and deepened rapidly into an intense romantic connection through continued communication. They married roughly one year after meeting. The marriage combined genuine affection with practical considerations, as visa requirements influenced the decision to wed. The account highlights how emotional attachment and immigration-related factors can coexist and shape the timing and motivation for marriage decisions.
