Single and theres not many women here and havent found anyone here for past few years, I have a us citizen friend trying to set me up with women from china whom she knows. How bad is it in the current landscape if I were to follow through like connecting, meeting in US, eventually engage and marry? Naturally china is a big flag and coupled with current visa tightening… Is it just not worth it and just keep looking locally and be single? Do have sci and trying for fs. ---

Will you get scrutinized? Big fat MAYBE. What is more important to you? A chance for a relationship or your clearance? If relationship, then report it and hope they don’t mind. Otherwise, worth the risk? Only you can answer that ---

Get out there and just enjoy yourself. “Meetups” are a great way to find events to hang out. Don’t worry about relationships. Women will see you are happy and having fun and want to meet you, and that is more powerful than anything a dating site can provide. Women can smell guys who are trying too hard. ---
