Oh I don't mind her "window shopping for clothes", cos I know she'd never wear them and get in a state so she'd need to do laundry.

Well...

it seems like this discussion never ends... anyways... first of all I do have to admit that I completely missunderstood the very first post and thougth exactly like most of the people that responded to it, I almost responded the same way, becasue it does sound like you want a latin american woman with you so she can do your laundry, make you dinner, etc etc... but I think we have realized after so many posts, sarcastic responses, etc etc that that is not what you meant. I am from Venezuela, and I just got here about 2 months ago, well I did live in the US for 5 years, went to school here etc etc..so iguess I can tell you if we do change or not... first of all, you should know that teh values we have from home, from our culture and from our family are too strong and inside of us and we will never let them go becasue they are part of us, itis what makes us, and if we ever do let them go then it means we didn't really have them... so, one of thoe values is family, family is extremely important to us and with a job or without a job we will always make it our first piority, we will always take care of teh house becasue it is ours, becasue it makes us feel good for it to look nice, becasue it is home, not becasue we have to, we will take care of our husband, boyfriend or fiancee becsue we want to, not becasue we have to.... it comes from our hearts... Cami expressed it very well.. we do all these things becsue we care... and i do agree with her and Latin American Macho Men... most of themdo not apreciate all that, they tak it from granted and expect it, wich is even worse, thy don't see we do it from the heart, it is sad... but we still do it, mayb even sadder.. anyways... my point is... I did change when i came to the US, well I was 17, sill a kid, unfortunately i became less wwarm towards peope becasue North Americans are a little colder than we are, and I kinda became a bit less sentimental than I was before.. but that never took away my values and what i wanted to do from teh heart, my friends are like family and I take care of them... I am extremely independent I do not like to depend on anything or anyone, and from having witnessed the Latin American Macho beahviors I think I am a bit of a Feminist myself... actually I am .... I beleive we shoudl be independent and never be there to be anoyone's servant... that doesn't mean I don't cook for my fiancee, or I don't clean the house, or I won' take care of my kids, it means I respect myself, and when I do all these things I don't do it for someone else, I do it for me, becasue it makes me feel good to make someone else feel good,cared and loved.... and I know he apreciates it very much... I am not sure if I made my point clear, but teh main thing is, values are something we very rarely le go off no matter where to the world we move to, they will always come wih us and we will always make them work and adjust them into the new culture we are living in... I hope thsihelped a little... I just wish you would've written the first post better that way we wouldn't have reacted so negative a first... bu I do hope that what w all thought you meant a first is not thatand it is what i think you meant.... sounds like a riddle... anyways.... don't worry, she will not change her values, yes she will become more independt of course and will realize that women here are different and in a waymay adopt some of their things wich are not all bad, but she will always have her values, her passion and her heart...

So very eloquently expressed.

OMG!!! DIE THREAD DIE!!!!! DIE!!!!

OMG!!! DIE THREAD DIE!!!!! DIE!!!!

But you started this with you naive stupid comments. By the way...Spanish women come from Spain. Colombianas come from Colombia. Unfortunately, the US Consulate in Bogota does not share your mindset with how wonderful the women of Colombia are. The State Dept has received many complaints from US Citizen fiances on how these women have come here with only the intent of getting out of Colombia. The complaints have cited such things, of having no intent of getting married, or running off to be with family members that are already here in the US.

Colombianas are world famous in the Spanish speaking world. They round up dozens every day in Spain that are there illegally, and repatriate them to Colombia, as they have a reputation there of being quite dishonest....without going into details. When I was in Costa Rica last year, the situation with Colombian overstayers has gotten so bad, that Costa Rica Has imposed visa requirements upon citizens of Colombia. 31 day visas to visit. The authorities of Costa Rica have regular round-ups of illegal Colombianas that come to Costa Rica to work as prostitutes, and engage in illegal drug activities.

The US State Dept now has imposed a much stricter interview with Colombian fiancees, making it exactly like the interviews in Lima Peru. They will want to know now how long has it been since you have seen her, how many times, how did you meet. They will look at cultural, language, age, religon differences, number of marriages, etc. and I would suggest that you be at the interview, even if they do not ask you any questions. Expect to be asked for additional evidence of virtually everything. This will be no cake walk to bring your wife/fiancee to the US. It ranks up with probabally one of the more difficult Consulates to deal with.

want references??

By the way...you have no idea...with the stupid naive, lack of experience questions/.statements that you have made. You would not make a good impression at an interview in Bogota.

[TracyTN 237]

Yeah, what Fox said.

And pssst whatever you do, don't call her Spanish in front of the CO.

the fox is spotting hard

The usual fox...I just tell it like it is. Been there, seen it, and I dont give out blind support for every cause or relationship just because its VJ. Wish em all luck, but when I see/know of issues....tell em like they are. Could tell you stories of Colombianas in Costa Rica and/or Spain, but this is not the forum.
