am a Jamaican who lives in Texas. I recently broke up with a Jamaican woman who lives on the island. I found out that she was using me for money and as a means to enter America. I had filed for a visa and was about to get married to this gold digger and America-seeking hound. What I am saying, pastor, is this. Please, let all, the Jamaican men living abroad know that most, not all, of the women in Jamaica who are single and claim to love, have the great USA in their eyes and will do anything, including getting married, to touch down here in the States.

I am so happy that I saw the light before I got married to this woman. The visa was approved and I was on my way down to Jamaica, only to find out that this woman was living a double life. It makes me now see why a woman, in her 30s, living in Jamaica, without children, working for low monthly wages, and who has a bag of life stories to tell, was still single.

Please advise all Jamaican men living abroad to be aware of these women, because all they see is the red, white and blue colours. They are not in love. They will even lie down to migrate and pretend to be angels or queens. This is a warning to single Jamaican men living abroad. Be careful who you meet from yard.

Pastor, have a great and wonderful day. Keep up the good work.

Dear S.S.,

It is regrettable that you generalised and tried to give the impression that most of our Jamaican women will do just about anything to live in the United States of America.

I do not believe that is true. You should also bear in mind that while many Jamaican women would love to live in America, there are also many Jamaican men living in Jamaica who have fooled women in America, pretended that they were in love with them, and these women have married them and filed for them and after they have received their permanent status, they ill-treated these women. So, I do not want you to behave as if it is only the women who are not truthful, the same can be said of men.

Pastor
