He Offered To Marry His Girlfriend So She Wouldn’t Have to Join the Military in Her Native Country, But She Wants to Get Married For Love
I don’t want to sway anyone’s opinion, but I’m gonna go on the record right now and say that this man and this woman SHOULD NOT BE TOGETHER.
Maybe you’ll agree with me, or maybe you’ll think I’m a heartless son of a gun…
But either way, we want you to make up your own mind after you read this story from Reddit.
Get started now!
AITA for offering to marry my GF “on paper”?
“My gf is from Myanmar and I am from an EU country. We have been together for only 2 months. In these two months we have been arguing a lot but we also had our good moments.
They got some news.
Recently, as you may have heard on the news, Myanmar’s dictatorship announced all men and unmarried women aged up to 35 yo, will need to enlist to the army for 3 years minimum.
I offered to marry my gf “on paper” to enable her to visit her country without fear of getting enlisted to the army. She said to me “we fight almost every day, how are we gonna get married”.
I don’t have a good feeling about this relationship…
I said “it’s okay, it’s not a real thing. It’s only on paper. Even if we break up, we can remain married “on paper” for your convenience. Then, later on, when you are no longer in the age group to join the army, we can file for a “divorce” and go separate ways. I’m doing it for you.”
That didn’t go over well…
She did not like this at all, and instead of thanking me for offering to make her life easier and protect her from danger, she got offended and told me that she wants to get married out of love, not out of procedure.
She also said she has other choices and men who would marry her for real, not on paper. I am not ready to get married.
AITA?”
