I married a girl from India in my mid 20s and I grew up in America. She bailed the relationship immediately after getting a green card I sponsored. Luckily we don’t have any kids but now I’m labeled as a divorced person and girls hesitate or lose interest when they find out I had a failed marriage when I was younger. Any advice to finding a woman as a divorced person?

Seen this scenario, numerous times don't worry if you tried your best to save the relationship before divorced you did what you could. Go out there and look for opportunities to find somebody the right person won't care if you are divorced or not.

I’m assuming your background is Indian as well?

Yea

Sorry to hear that op.

That would be a perception among desis. Are you only looking to date another Indian or open for other possibilities? If it’s the latter, it is not a big deal as long as you are upfront about it. In fact I would suggest being upfront about it earlier in any case , so that you don’t waste time or get invested.

Yea I’m open to all possibilities, just something hovering over my head

If you’re comfortable with it, I would suggest sharing it with whoever you’re talking to. You can casually just weave it in as having been used for a green card marriage in the past (assuming there were no other significant issues lead leading to the separation). All the best OP.

That's really crappy. Were there signs like lack of intimacy, or hiding things, being distant, her saying she missed home?
