Topic: If I wanted to marry in two months for money, would there be

I am asking a purely hypothetical question. If I wanted to marry within a few months, would there be any women willing to do this? How many would pay for a good husband? I know men have paid for mail order brides, so would YOU? What might be an offer or price worthy of a man? Or simply, a man like me?

You might very easily find women willing to do this, but a follow on question you need to ask is how long after the marriage will she stay and are you really buying love, compromising to find love or just gambling to find love?

I bet there's some sort of motive for marrying anyone that soon. Sounds quite dodgy.

I might ask you those very good questions in return. How long would YOU stay, could you find love with someone you barely knew and would YOU take the chance it could end up being true love nad last a lifetime with happiness?

I only knew my ex a month before marrying him, it lasted 13 years. I would of stayed forever but he had other plans. But I do believe you can meet and fall in love with the one tgat captures your heart, soul, body and mind, if there is a deep connection from the start

I agree with PKH - it is possible to fall in love later at some stage and it could end up being true love and lasting a lifetime with happiness. Though it must be borne in mind that the motivation was financial in the beginning, that motivation can drive a person elsewhere where financial motivation is offered. Not sure .... though one. Go with your guts I say.

There are 2 issues. 1) Someone who would want this, on such sudden notice. 2) How much $$ are you looking for, would you marry them without the cash payment?

Only just noticed, he mentions he wants to marry for money in the title. I guess it depends which women will let a guy marry them for their money. Maybe you just really like money.

Marriage is not about money. No, I wouldn't pay to marry someone.

A cynic is someone who knows the price of everything but the value of nothing.

Seems to me if you're making it about that you're basically saying that you could do better but are more interested in the money. Not really the best basis for a relationship in my opinion.

You're going to pay through the nose if you get married anyway!

no, I would not pay to marry someone who was essentially a stranger paying for introductions, if its reasonable, and allowing nature to take its course, would be the closest thing I would consider,,,
