Cubana erupts against women who bring partners from Cuba: "I thought it was just the men."

A TikTok video by Lisandra Acevedo highlights the trend of foreign women seeking partners in Cuba, bringing them to their countries, and then abandoning them, sparking a debate about intercultural relationships.


In a recent video shared on TikTok, user Lisandra Acevedo Évora expressed her surprise and concern regarding the frequency with which foreign women seek partners in Cuba, take them to their home countries, and then abandon them.

“Women who go to Cuba to find a partner. They bring them here and when they arrive, they abandon them; they lose everything, it's terrible. I thought it was not as common for women, that it was more often seen in men. It does happen to women, and it happens quite a bit; the cases are dreadful”, commented the young woman in the video she shared on her TikTok account.

The video has generated various reactions among users of the platform. Some shared personal experiences, while others offered advice or expressed opinions on the topic.

A user commented: “I find them here, and they just arrived,” suggesting a preference for finding a partner in their own environment. Another shared a positive experience: “I met a Mexican through social media, and she came to see me, and here I am, happily married in Mexico,” highlighting that although there are negative cases, there are also successful love stories.

However, not all opinions were favorable; one user commented, "First of all, I would never go to Cuba. A man cannot tolerate the rudeness that they still have," reflecting prejudice towards Cuban men.

This debate highlights the complexities and challenges of intercultural relationships and the motivations behind some unions between foreigners and Cubans.

While some couples manage to build strong and lasting relationships, others face challenges that can lead to painful situations.
