    My bf of 7 years is from London. If we were to get married, it would be here.

    I always get the impression Irish girls aspire to something English! Certainly more than the boys.. William could never be an icon. aside from other indicative stuff, my two aunts shacked up with theirs over there. But despite the passports, spouses; weren't content til they'd completed their 'elocution'

    Since when do Irish women ever have "meaningful deep conversation"? Can you have a "meaningful deep conversation" about make-up and x-factor and other mindless junk which the forbidden group have plagued their heads with?

    I'd imagine anyone who is with someone like that wouldn't have meaningful conversation on the top of their list anyway.

    But what I meant was how can you really get to know someone with a language barrier. I know a couple people who are "in love" with eastern european girls. The conversion is something akin to one you'd have with a child. So basic that there cant be any real communication, let alone understanding of each other.

    My girlfriend is German. I must really love her because I left my beloved county of Cork and moved to Dublin to live with her. You know how those Corkonians don't like to leave Cork, especially for that ''cold old hole of Dublin'' as my grandmother used to say.

    Im getting married to a wonderful chinese woman at the end of the August.

    All my friends who married seem to have picked foreign girls or been chosen by them.
    The first to do it met an American Girl studying to be a doctor here, now living in Texas, they married in Vegas cause it was easy.
    The second to get married met a polish girl here and I was best man at that wedding in Poland, 2 hilarious drunken days.
    The third wedding is next month in Finland and the groom is getting married to a Finnish girl he met in Edinburgh while studying.

    I have a fourth Friend who lives in Germany and is long term cohabiting with a German(of polish parents) but no wedding yet.

    GF is Greek (although have Russian).

    Conversation is not a problem. She speaks fluent English and so do I :D

    met here as she's been living here for last number of years.

    Conversation can be funny at times because she learned American English, but also because she just doesn't get an awful lot of (Irish) slang. That's changing...

    My wife is from Russia only married to stay here with her children.
    Be wary of marriage to any non EU it is for suckers.
    I have a separation agreement and hope to divorce next year.
    The only reason she is divorcing is to get a single mothers allowance.
    I have found a Ladyboy less complicated.

    Yeah, the wife is from Argentina. Happy days. Though the father doesn't speak English and my Spanish is quite poor, that's the only drawback.

    That and its expensive to travel to South America.
