End of Mick Cants marriage
Hi all,
Some might remember that I married my Filipina wife Jennifer in 2008 in the Philippines.
She disappeared straight after our honeymoon with the money I left with her for visa and flight that she said she wanted to book herself.
She had misused the money I transferred to her bank for her honeymoon before but I hoped we had got over that!
Some 18 months after the wedding my wife finally arrived at Heathrow Airport in the UK on in September 2009.
I had paid the visa cost again and bought her air ticket online and emailed her the ticket this time.
We were together here 12 days and she returned to the Philippines.
I loved her very much and was very sad she had gone, and did not know what to do next,
In November 2009 I asked her if she would sign a divorce form if I sent it to her, so we could have a quick end to things, but she said she did not want to divorce, but to come back and make the marriage work.
I was overjoyed at this and sent her an e-ticket for the flight from the Philippines and some money into her account to pay for travel items, and picked her up at Heathrow airport, in December 2009.
She stayed six weeks this time, but there was no love on her part, she would not come with me to any form of marriage guidance or sexual counselling, saying it is private between us, I did make an appointment with relate and begged her to come with me, to save our marriage but she said no, I went on my own.
In February 2010 she left and went to live with other Filipino’s that she knew and started working at a supermarket.
I then found out she had a Filipino partner in Manila all along and that they had an 8 month old son!
They had been together long before our marriage, this was a complete shock to me.
The marriage and vows were a sham as far as she was concerned, I married her for love; she married me only for money and the visa.
When she first came to the UK in September 2009; the baby would have been around 11 weeks old.
In over two years of marriage we were together less than eight weeks.
I realise I was warned, all I can say is I was in love, and love and trust go together, but even I realised there cannot be trust with so many lies.
A divorce is in progress.
Perhaps her family knew of the other man all along.
Mick.

I'm so sorry to hear about your terrible experience Mick, but hopefully you will be able to find someone new, if that's what you want.
You certainly couldn't be blamed for being cynical now.
I think after 5 years you can divorce the other person without any involvement from them.
Try to put it behind you and concentrate on what is good and positive in your life, then you can open a new and hopefully happier chapter.
I think you're a brave man for putting this in front of us all, and for that you have my admiration and respect.
Best of luck mate

Mick,
I echo Graham's words.
I really feel saddened that you endured so much.
I respect and admire that you loved and cared enough to try all you could do to save the marriage.
I hope and pray that you will find the strength to move forward and that you will retain your power of enthusiasm.
Thank you for sharing.
God Bless

Just a side point regarding this.
When divorce has gone through with a Filipna wife, and no domestic problems were documented in the UK/Phils during the marriage, it is OK to remarry a Filipina again I presume?

Doesnt surprise me one iota,loads of similar stories here,sorry for you that you were the pawn in her twisted game mick,and the odds are her family certainly knew,move on mate,cut all contact,this time for good,you deserve better to be honest.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

Not quite sure what you meant... but :-
The divorce decree absolute will show only:-
Name of Petitioner
Name of Respondent
Co-Respondent (if applicable, either named or not named)
The wording that follows is generally in the form of:-
that the marriage solemnized on (date) at (location of marriage)
between AB (petitioner) and CD (respondent) be dissolved unless sufficient
cause be shown to the court within six weeks from the making thereof why the
said decree should not be made absolute, and that no such cause having been shown,
it is hereby certified that the said decree was on the (date), made final and
absolute and that the said marriage was therby dissolved
Dated (date)
The decree absolute says nothing more.
When you reveive this certificate you are the completely free to marry

I am sorry to hear this kind of tragedy Mick. As far as I am concern I feel ashamed as what other filipinas would do just to obtain prosperity.
I am thankful that this kind of forum is present to let the others be aware and be sure at what they are in before they get carried away by their feelings.
It doesn't only involve with filipinas though. I think this kind of sham works whether its a 3rd world country or not.
Hope you will find the right woman for you Mick.Life as we make it

Sorry to hear your news Mick. Its always a great shame to hear when these things happen. As you've just mentioned its important to remember that this type of behavior isn't limited to filipinas, indeed its occuring all over the world. I've a mate who just had a similiar experience with a uk girl. Obviously didn't need visa's etc but she took him for a real rollercoaster ride and nearly cleaned him out and left him in a right ol mess. The important thing is that within a short time he was over her realising that it was not his fault, he was not the bad person in the relationship and soon he'll meet someone who is worthy of him and willing to make a relationship / partnership work. Of course it helped that he had his mates near him to support him as you will have, in real life and in this forum.
So stay strong, remeber its not your fault, you never know when the next big thing is going to come along and surprise you. THe thing now is to move on and spend some quality me time, go out and enjoy yourself and in time you'll start thinking about a new relationship.
Good luck.It's been emontional

Hi baby38,
Yes that is about right, I thought the visa should have taken around 3 months, but becouse she disapeared then more delays that I never found the truth about, except I now know she was pregnant, she arrived her around 17 months after our wedding and the baby which I did not know about then was around 11 weeks old.
Mick.
