wow im ALWAYS amazed how some people come to VJ just to complain about EVERYTHING! When someone posts in the wrong forum, they complain, if someone asks a question that was asked 2 days prior, they complain...in this case its just a fun poll...now get over it!

:ot2: But back to the poll....I came to the states as a Student and thats when i met my SO. Ive been here for 5 years on my f-1 visa and in June i will be returning home to start the K-1 Visa.

What is the deal with people starting a poll that we can't possibly vote? Because you only give options that would fit you? Does it lack you brain to put some thought to the subject? Or are u way too damn bored you don't give a damn ther poll is flawed and only half the people can vote? Why even bother start another brainless poll?

#######? What is your problem anyway?

Anyway, I was working at an International School in Italy when I met my husband. But he was Moroccan working in Italy, so there's not really a poll option for us.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Nessa calm down. It's just a poll and your response is way OTT. Saying the OP is lacking a brain is out of line. ;)

Went on "vacation", ended up moving down there for a bit after realizing she was the one for me.

Wishing you ten-fold that which you wish upon all others.

I'm glad to see that people are leaving messages and PMing me about that uncalled for response. Of course I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings.

I don't mind that she said I don't have a brain because obviously I DO and she doesn't know me.

It's cool to see people studying/working abroad, then meeting their SOs.

Nessa, why don't you just ignore it if it does not apply to you?

I met my husband when he was working at our headquarters in Germany. In fact, I was supposed to take care of him during his stay.... well, I guess I did... :whistle:
