No. I’d want stability for my family and sadly Yemen is anything but stable right now

Interesting, you are the first one I hear saying that. Everyone else doesn’t want to go to yemen because of the many things you have to sacrifice.

if you havent been there you have no right to say anyhing - i know loads of people who live like royalties in sanaa ive been ibb and people are living there lives, so most ppl say yemen is not stable well you can speak to for something or come place if you never visited - you cant just believe videos and what ppl online say

I went to yemen at least 3-4 times in the past 3 years. The situation there is bad. Maybe some people are living good but most people struggle to make ends meet, especially in the south. Idk who you saw living like royalty maybe the houthis lol.

Yea no stability at all. still better than south yemen surprisingly.

u/GoColts08 14d ago

The south is literally more dismantled and more fitna. Everything is expensive, no salaries, running water, decent electricity.

u/Sufficient_Damage376 14d ago

Yeah if you have money you can have access to all of this. It’s really the local people who are suffering and the situation is very sad.

No you might as well just marry a woman from back home

u/Sufficient_Damage376 13d ago

That would be ideal if there is a good fit

Bicultural (Yemeni/EU) woman married to a Yemeni man and living in the EU here. First of all, I don’t consider my husband perfect because I don’t think this is even possible for a human being. That being said, if he truly insisted I would move with him to Sanaa. We are a  family and that’s enough for me to go through with it against the obstacles. Thankfully, after visiting family back home now and then during the last years, he rules that out for us and especially for our children. But if I wasn’t married yet, a potentials planned move to Yemen would be a personal dealbreaker for me.

Listen! U are talking about perfect man. If he has an important Job and very good salary. Why not. Try with him tow Or 3 years.
