I want to say I am so sorry that I made you all worry. I also want to let you know that I am ok and that I didnt have suicidal thoughts. I have been through alot in my life and I am a very strong woman , I guess when things go wrong we forget that but after a few hours of crying the strength comes back. I will never lose hope for Keith and I but if it doesnt work out then it wasnt meant to be which I am a strong believer in this. I love him and I have no regrets. It has been a great ride. I got to visit another country because of him and i got to feel real love inside of my heart. I will wait patiently for him and give him the time he needs , if he doesnt come back to me then I will close the door and wait for the next one to open.

Also to the moderators... Thankyou for caring and taking steps that you felt you needed to take to make sure I am safe. I just had visitors and I must say the officer was a cutie ;) but a young one lol. I do now know that you people including all of my family here care about me so yes I will continue to post here and watch all of your dreams come true

Seriously though I am fine. I love you guys and thankyou again for caring. Its nice to know when things like this happens that there is people out there , even all over the world that care. You all deserve happiness and I pray each and everyone of you get it.

Merry Christmas and heres to a wonderful 2009

Glad to hear that you are still positive and still have your spirit intact even if it is a bit bruised. Its a healthy outlook to have, although we know it will be tough for you.

Hope to hear good news from you soon. Take care x

Hey Aubrey, before you freak out about the I-134, you may want to look at this.

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/men...00048f3d6a1RCRD

It says "Edition Date: 10/30/2008. Prior versions are also acceptable."

Thanks for the heads up, too. I didn't realize they'd finally updated it.

Oh awesome! I didn't know that it didn't need to be notarized anymore. I'm waiting to receive my employment verification from my employer and then I'll send it off to France. I've read that if your income exceeds the poverty guidelines then you don't need to add additional info (bank acct statements, 401k statements, investments etc.) but doesn't the gov't want all this info? If its asks for it on the form, isn't it required? I just don't want to omit something now and then include it later for AOS and get in some type of trouble. Paranoid. thoughts?

ROFL!!!!! I JUST had this NOTERIZED damn it!! LOL...SO should I toss that one and do the one they WANT us to do NOW???

Sigh LOL

Just submit the one you filled out. It'll be fine. No need for extra work... making copies of everything is enough work. I think it's stupid they ask for everything in duplicate. I'm off to FedEx tomorrow, and I STILL haven't gotten to pack or clean up before I leave. Ahhhhhhhk!

I considered making copies of everything I-134-related, but almost everywhere I looked people suggested it was not necessary. Almost everybody submitted only one copy of everything and had no issues whatsoever. This requirement seems to be geared towards other visa types (i.e. student). Seems like at the majority of the interviews consular officer just glanced over I-134 and didn't care about supporting documents. Others didn't look at it at all. Just my two cents. :)

love ya lots!

meri your crazy vj sister!

I love ya lots to girl. I still havent heard anything and he didnt show up. I think he had to much on his mind and wasnt thinking rationally. I tried to call him last night to see if he was ok but the phone in our flat is gone so that means that he has moved out and hopefully gone with his parents. I cant believe I am saying that but that was the plan when I left and his father will take care of him if he is depressed like I think he is. Keith is a good man and I will treasure the time I had his love. I have no regrets as he was so worth this last 2 years. I will not give up hope either. I will wait for him until I feel it is time to move on. He is worth that even with his mistakes that he has made along the way. I love him and my heart hurts for him now as I know leaving me wasnt a easy thing for him to do. I know he is suffereing now just as much as I am. If our love is strong enough which I believe it is , we will find our way back to each other rather it is in a few weeks or a few years. Souls united cant be apart because they will always feel like something is missing. Right from the start I said he was my soul mate and someone from up above brought us together and he agrees. I pray for my baby to get through what ever he is going through right now and I pray that he finds his way back to me

Don't get too depressed. I know it's hard, especially this time of year, but your approval HAS to come very soon now. A positive attitude attracts positive action!

GOOD ON YA! sweetie..he did not seem to into getting married and immature. I am happy you found out NOW before it was to late sweetie..I think part of you knew but its hard..really hard when you love someone.

If it were me ..do not call him..cease contact because IT will push him even further away from you. Give him that space. Whatever you do do not log on to the game you met on looking for him. I know it is rough sweetie..

and you have my email now so anytime you want to vent ..GO FOR IT!!!

hugs girl...you will be okay..i know you will
