    This is a country of immigrants. Such questions are shameful.

      i know you didn’t come down in the last shower of rain… but no it’s not shameful… not what I’ve seen.

        yeah… I’m an immigrant myself and nearly all the adults in my family who are here are… and it’s definitely a thing questioned even within immigrant communities where someone with citizenship/PR starts a new relationship with someone who’s just moved in from the motherland.

      Yes it might be depending on context. But. I literally know of at least 2 marriages in the ethnic community I’m from that are like this. Person marries a citizen to stay. It not an easy process though, but for some couples they may find the arrangement mutually beneficial so it happens. Of course this does not mean this is the case for LowExperience relative. Love can happen to anyone too.

      I think people tend to have a negative bias, because we’ve evolved needing to look out for danger to survive.
