Should You Marry Someone You’ve Never Met?

23 March, 2017
Q I recently got engaged to a man who lives in Europe. I live in the US. We've been talking for over six months, and truly from what I've seen so far, I like his character. He's very nice towards me and respectful and likes me a lot, this is why I agreed to get engaged. We're 3 months away from getting married, and I've started getting very worried whether I'll be attracted to him or not when we meet. I don't know if I'll like him in person. From all the people I've talked to about marriage he's the only one that seems right. What should I do? I can't go to see him and he can't come to the US because of documentation problems. We've only talked through Facetime which really isn't very helpful at times. Please help!
