When it comes to relationships in Jamaica, it’s important to approach them with caution and a clear understanding of cultural dynamics when it comes to Jamaican men. While Jamaica is known for its warm and welcoming people, it’s wise to be mindful of the complexities that can arise in romantic relationships, especially those involving individuals from different backgrounds.
One of the draws for many women visiting Jamaica is the allure of meeting charismatic Jamaican men. Their charm and charisma can be captivating, leading to whirlwind romances that seem like the start of a fairy tale. However, it’s crucial to take the time to get to know someone beyond the initial attraction and to remain aware of the potential challenges that may arise.
Personal experiences and stories from others highlight the need for careful consideration. For example, a woman named Marcy found herself deeply in love with a Jamaican man named Todd. Their relationship began with passion and excitement in Jamaica, where they met during a breakfast at a tourist restaurant. Despite the thirteen-year age gap between them, Marcy was enamored by Todd’s charm and affection. Their long-distance romance blossomed, leading to their decision to get married. Marcy made significant life changes, quitting her prestigious position with a major law firm and moving to Jamaica with several hundred thousand U.S. dollars to build their dream home in Montego Bay on Todd’s property, which was mostly financed by her.
However, as time passed, the relationship took a darker turn. Todd became increasingly controlling, frequently leaving Marcy alone for extended periods, and eventually, he became physically and verbally abusive. Despite the warning signs, Marcy’s tragic fate was sealed when she was found murdered. The circumstances surrounding her death were a stark reminder of the dangers that can lurk beneath the surface of seemingly idyllic relationships.
Another couple faced challenges when the man was deported to Jamaica before they could marry. They met in the U.S., but circumstances led to his deportation to Jamaica. Despite the difficulties they encountered, the woman was able to remove herself from a potentially harmful situation. This story serves as a reminder of the complexities that can arise when relationships span different countries and legal systems.
Two other women experienced financial strain in their relationships with Jamaican men. One woman came to Jamaica and married her partner in Montego Bay, but she is now unhappy and unable to leave due to financial constraints and lack of familial support. The other woman was in a long-distance relationship with her Jamaican partner, who frequently requested money for emergencies. While she did not marry him, she found herself in a difficult situation due to financial obligations.
It’s essential to recognize that these experiences are not representative of all relationships in Jamaica. Many people have found love and happiness with Jamaican partners, forming strong and lasting bonds. However, it’s crucial to approach any relationship, whether local or international, with a discerning mindset and a willingness to address any challenges that may arise.
While Jamaica offers the allure of romance and adventure, it’s important to approach relationships with a level head and a realistic perspective. By taking the time to get to know someone, communicating openly, and prioritizing personal well-being, individuals can navigate relationships in Jamaica with greater awareness and understanding.

Not all Jamaican men are dogs in the same manner not all Americans are bad do you know the reverse of what you are saying happens to Jamaicans who encounter some Americans I an afraid of American women period but I know some are good.fix up your argument.
My husband is a jamaican cheater and abusive and has the cheating hunting habit and all jamaican women are so cheap they dont care if the man is married they are offering themselves all the time online with facebook, jampersonals amd more inline sites, asking for and receiving money, jamaica is like sodom and gomorrah hopefully the earth sucks that island.
It’s stupid of you to generalize. Not all Jamaican women are cheap. I for one doesn’t depend on any man….not even family. I work for what I want and need so shut the f $€&$ up! I hope you get swallowed before this island though.
Well im not like that nether are all jamaican men if you dislike us so much why is your profile pic a j can flag . everywhere is like sodom now a days . i dont like woman beating or resoect woman beaters all im saying is dont judge all of ud by a fews mistakes.
lawd…it work both ways in every culture…..if you don’t take the time to get to know someone before you marry them then you get what you ask for.
Jamaican has a bad culture of begging and always want something from someone. Hence the reason for them wanting to marry for convenience and easy way of life. I however blame these foreign men and women for behaving naive and allowing themselves to be taken advantage of. I can’t understand how this man got away for such a silly reason. The team of jurors should be chosen from another district. The American government should intervene and make sure justice served.
I happen to come across this. But for anyone judging another country like this. If you travel alot you realize that other countries these things happen. I lived in Jamaica and I’m living in the USA and let me tell you this America is more Sodom and Gomorrah than anywhere else. This I’m not guessing I know, before I got married just standing at the bus stop made me so sick. You had more male prostitutes than anything. I could understand young men but older men in there prestige cars. Because I’m a black Africa Princess. Like they say I look different. More natural, more fresh. I guess I wasn’t looking worn out. And going along each day I’ve learn alot of things seeing and hearing that turn my stomach. There’s good and bad in Jamaica and everywhere. I like USA it has its good and bad. But it has a lifestyle of Sodom and Gomorrah and if you don’t see that then you living in denial. I could go on and on about men staying home and women taking care of them. But I’ll leave it to your conscience. Be bless!
Um America us not the only place with prostitutes. You are Judging America and you just said not to judge any one country. How come you didn’t mention any thing about Canada or another Caribbean country or a continent?
I know you’re not talking about male prostitution in America. You can lose the self righteous tone on that note, because Jamaica is the Mecca for male prostitutes. Laying up with every Becky Sue O’Reilly that they could drop their pants for. Doesn’t matter if these horny ass females are 27 or 72, as long as they are white skinned and have money to spend. Acting like modern day plantation bucks and what not.
This article is so true. I just had that experience. I wouldn’t send him any money, so he cut me off like a light switch. Mercy!
I wish I never met my Jamaican born husband.I met him in the US through my ex-sister-in-law. He is 13 years older than I, and grew up in Wait-a-bit, Trewlawny.
After experiencing intimidation tactics, pathological lying, never apologizes EVER, cheating, and then deflecting, it all came up as “narcissistic personality disorder”. There is no cure except talk therapy. They think everything is everyone else’s fault so they rarely seek or agree to go to counseling. He is one of those people.
It stems from childhood abuse and parents that did not teach self esteem or anything about respect. It is mostly MEN that have this disorder and not just Jamaican men.
I cannot fix it and I am done living in fear another day. Days ago he picked up a lamp attached to a table, and held it over my head (while recovering from a lumbar fusion) in an attempt to scare me into submission, I videotaped the entire incident. His eyes look like the devil.
We planned to have our now 21 year old son. But, when I first told him the blood test came back positive, he then said, “I hope you lose it”. What kind of jerk says that to anyone? If I did not have such terrible, all day long, morning sickness, I would have left that day. He then drove away to screw one of many mistresses. He could have never owned a home without a women because his credit was in the toilet bowl. Once we moved in, the disorder reared its ugly head. I was unaware of this disorder at the time.
He is NOT in the US to have a happy family. He is in the US to make money to send home to his “blood-line-family.” The whole reason for being here is a facade.
His brother was deported from the US after he molested his sisters daughter and then went to jail for it. He came here and then threw away the opportunity because of this narcissistic disorder. (it is genetic)
Microphone drop>>>>I’m out!
Personally, I don’t feel sorry for most of them. If most of these American, Canadian, and British women were thinking with their brains instead of from between their legs, then they wouldn’t be having this problem. I don’t sympathize with stupidity, sorry. As a woman, I don’t care where you’re from, I have enough sense to know that it’s the man who is supposed to be protector and provider for his wife and family, whether the wife is working or not. Good looks, biceps, triceps and leg muscles does not buy a home or pay bills. So if he can’t come right, then he won’t be coming at all.
I totally agree with the article. Jamaican men are all scumbag parasites who are looking for women to . They don’t just have that habit in Jamaica, even here abroad, they are loing good for financial assistance from women. I made the mistake of getting with one during my visit. He was always begg and telling me his ifinancial problems.
