Hallo, I am a Swedish woman living in Sweden. Two years ago I met an American man, and he proposed to me a month go. We decided to get married this summer. I was so happy. Over a night HE deciced to move back to US, and when I asked when we were going to get married, he said that we had to postpone it because he was going to search for a job. In my ears it sounded like he had changed his mind about the marriage. I couldn't come with him to US because of the money reason. When I asked when we were going to get married he had no answer, and when I pressed him, he said that there were no guarantee that we would get married. Here in Sweden we see like he broke the engagement and my family says the same. He says that the engagement is not broken and his family agrees with him that he did the right thing who postponed the wedding when he was going back to US. He claims that this is a cultural thing and that in US you do like this, but in my (and my families) ears it sounds like a bad way to get away and cancel the wedding. He also says that when he proposed the proposal had conditions, which was related to his job (which I didn't know anything about because he didn't mention any conditions) What do you say???? |
