Another CSC K-1 NOA-2!!

[John and Camie 39]

Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate the kind words, and look forward to leaving congrats for those of you waiting!

It's humbling ... there are many people who filed ages ago and have yet to see an approval, so while I'm happy for myself, there's some guilt there. And some of the newer posts about "how long did you know your spouse", etc. are troubling, because the intent is to start conflict about who really deserves to be approved. I thought we were all supposed to be on the same side. I was happy to read about others' approvals before I got mine, because I know what it's like to be missing my fiance. All this "legit/not-legit" relationship nonsense appearing on the boards is divisive and hurtful. Everyone's relationships here have value, whether they started in person or online, and regardless of how long someone was physically "with" their partner before engagement/marriage.

And now back to wishing the best of luck to everyone waiting.

I feel the same way. I keep cheering other people on because I know how much it sucks to be away from my man. And I agree about the other post too, joking or not some of the people have a "well we knew each other in person longer" thing going on, but that doesnt mean that two other people can't have found that perfect person and just knew. I just keep praying for everyone that decisions come swiftly to bring them and their loved ones together quickly.

Right on.

I'm rooting for you, Danu. I was feeling down yesterday reading some of those comments, but there are more nice people on here (such as yourself) than mean, so it's all good, I can deal with it.

thank you! I'm hoping it goes quickly for us too. I noticed it says Orange County on your thing. Where abouts in Orange? My honey is from Santa Ana, so thats where I will be once this whole mess is over.

I know I'm going to be nervous when I get my second piece of mail from them!!

My case isn't even in the system yet.. So I have no idea what to expect...
