I could never do it, but people do it all the time. The most popular reason strangers get married is to get a green card, but that is fraudulent and they can go to jail if they are caught.
Marriage is a serious commitment and it's not something you can get out of easily- you have to pay to get divorced and any assets acquired during the marriage usually have to be split in some way. Also, here in the United States, divorce takes a long time. I wouldn't want to be trapped like that with someone I don't know!

He might have given you the roses to try to talk to you or maybe, as someone already mentioned, his girlfriend didn't show up. In any case, it's always nice to receive a kind gesture from a stranger. I would say put the roses in some water and don't think too much about it!
0 votedNovember 3, 20130There is an expression in Spanish that says, "amor de lejos, amor de pendejos" which means long distance love is for fools. I believe a few relationships can withstand the long distance but eventually one of you has to move closer. It can work for a while but eventually you should make plans to go to him/her or he/she should make plans to come to you so you can be physically together. That's just my opinion.

Allow me is another way of saying 'let me do it.' So she asked whoever she was with to let her say the prayer. In terms of the Amen, it is usually said at the end of a prayer.0 votedNovember 3, 20130
- Yes, the wretched captive is Gloria. Gloria may feel physically or emotionally trapped by her daughter in law. It is worth mentioning that because Gloria is thanking God for the "bland, indifferently prepared meal" it seems like she is being sarcastic. Sarcasm: the use of irony to mock or convey contempt.0 votedNovember 3, 20130
- ¿Qué es lo que piensas acerca del Español ? = What do you think about the Spanish language? Piensas que es bueno aprender un idioma como el Español? = Do you think Spanish is a good language to learn? Que quieres decir con esta frase que no la entiendo: Because almost all Spanish speaking people interested and want you to be in Spain?0 votedNovember 3, 20132
- I speak American English so I'm used to certain words that may not be used in British English. Some words might be: order, wine list, wine selection, check (as in bill), beverage, bottle, magnum (of champagne, wine, etc), rare, medium, well done (for steak), dessert, bread, soft cheese, hard cheese, side of (when the customer wants something added to the meal- ex. a sandwich with A SIDE of french fries) and come with (a customer might ask what a meal comes with to mean what the meal includes). Don't be afraid to ask your fellow waiters- they know a lot about their job and dealing with people. Hope it helps :)0 votedNovember 3, 20130
