I am engaged to person who does not have US citizenship. I need to get married ASAP before her visa expires, but cannot deny her of wedding ceremony experience. So we agreed to marry twice. If both marriages are done by pastors, do I have to accept first marriage as the real marriage (I will have to do all paper work this time)? Or second, wedding ceremony as the real marriage? I am getting pressured from my Pastor that I cannot start a married life until the wedding ceremony. I am getting a hint that my pastor would refuse to marry us in church unless we keep our single lifestyle until the second marriage(wedding). What are your thoughts?

It seems like most women/girls believe in love at first sight. And most men don't believe. I would like to hear from women/girls who do not believe in love at first sight, and men who do believe and reasons as why?

I am going to be 35 soon, and have enough money to early retire. I am at a point that I now am enjoying myself so much that I don't want to meet and date. Am I the only one? I am looking for answer from those who have been there. Is this bad for my future? Am I going to regret this later?

Studying to be a mechanic, planning on taking on short block rebuilding project. How do I store the engine so that I can use the engine 5 years later?
