User_garyHe is a man who likes to join couples/lovers. No matter what race each belongs to. Sounds at the moment as if there is a couple and he joins them - making 3 people. What do you mean by 'join'? Introduce people to each other? Encourages them to date? Marries them? Might be better to find a more specific verb but if you want to use 'join', you need 'join together' to avoid the '3 people' situation.

He is a man who dismantle/disjoin lovers/couples if they are from different race. Dismantle and disjoin are odd choices here (in fact 'disjoin' is odd in any context; I'm not even sure you can use this as a verb). Try separate - although again you'll need to make the exact meeting clear from context, and how exactly can he have the power to do that?

I mean one couple went to the third person with whom they are asking to help them in their wedlock. The couple has actually run away from their home because of their (parents) defiance on their marriage.
If the third person is an honest man, he will ...........(join) them, or (if he is dishonest) He will (disjoin) them by calling their parents and tell them the truth that their daughter/son is here and you take away them.

Note: This is just a type of examples. Basically, I'm searching for a word which means to "help couple to tie their knot" in time of restriction/opposition from their parents. Similarly, the opposite of the same word.
