I think the thing that might get in the way of a successful LLTMBR is that one partner starts off on significantly less powerful footing, and I think the best partnerships are more free-choice, more-or-less equal power.
The mail-order person would be constrained by the legal, immigration, language, cultural, and separation-from-family-and-security issues. And the mail-orderer, it seems to me, would be vulnerable to exploitation. Wouldn't it be better to go into an LLTMBR feeling free and powerful?
