text: has anyone married a cuban...? i've heard of so many things about marriages with cubans, how they would take advantage of you to get out of the country and then leave you, etc... can anyone tell me if they've gone through a situation like that or do you know directly a person who has gone through it? has it turned out good for anyone? what are the difficulties? any advice? thanks i live in miami.  i am involved with a cuban that is already here.     i think that your answer has more to do with marrying an immigrant from a country that sucks instead of specifically "cuban."     in general, such people may be more inclined to do what they have to do to get out of their sucky country.  will the person be grateful?  maybe.   can people learn to love?  maybe.  the biggest problem is that they were raised in horrible, communist dictatorship.  their value system and perspective on life is very different from you or at least what your question suggests -- a romantic, love based value system.     the united states is very wealthy and we are very soft. we dont know about survival in the united states - try living in albania, afganistan, rwanda, or cuba.    hope that this helps.
