Thank you all for your warm wishes. I will make sure i stop by to keep a check on all your progresses and share in your good news.

At the moment i just feel so stupid that i didn't see what he was really like before i gave up everything and came over here, but that will go with time.

I'm just gonna concentrate on me and the little one and we will get through all this.

You are all really great people and it has been a privilege to know you all. xx

you are not stupid! sounds like you were deceived. a lot of ppl in "normal" relationships (meaning, not long distance) find out when they get married that their spouse isnt who they thought. take care of urself and ur little baby n keep us posted! we love u here! (L)

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jere. 29:11

What is the waiver thing exactly ? I know the waiver visa (exemption) but what is the waiver when you got denied for the K1 for exemple ?

Aww, I bet you're so excited Dawn!

In other great news, Sebastian found a job! It's only part time and doesn't pay quite as well as we'd hoped, but it's in his field and directly across the street from our apartment so there's no transport worries with him not having a car (or a drivers license). And our AOS was touched today, which means someone is at least looking at the green card application.

I hope things are going well with all of you! xx

That's great news! The hardest step for immigrants is landing that first job without any U.S. references. Congratulations!

Well i have thought long and hard before deciding to post in here, as i know that it should only be good news...

I was just going to keep posting as if i was in the US, but i am moving back to the UK on the 23rd June, but i will keep checking in to see how you are all doing with your applications.

Unfortunately i am a victim of having a long distance relationship, and despite dating Rob for 2years i obviously didn't really know him at all.

Since i moved over in Feb and started living with Rob full-time it became apparent that Rob has a severe alcohol & drug problem, this has turned up a criminal record, and worse, that i again had no idea existed...so I am heading home as this is a situation i cannot put myself or my unborn daughter in any longer.

I want to wish everyone all the luck in the world, i have made some great friends here in the July '08 thread and wish everyone all the best.

:luv:

omg dawn! you okay love??????????? WOW i am in shock as well. Why did he not be honest with you??? lordy I am truly sorry you and your lil one have to endure this!!

we love you so much her girl..I love you and will always be my vj sister!!

LOVE

MERI
