I'm just a little upset right now

[Leyla 0]

So I told Tarik to book his ticket for August 7th (a Thursday) so that he could be here on Friday so we could get our marriage license and get married at the mosque. The hurry is mostly religious. All my Muslimas in the house know what I'm talking about.

Last night, on expedia.com I found a flight from Casablanca to Paris to Newark to Columbus. 16 hours all together and he would arrive here in Columbus at 6:30pm (PERFECT) plus a one way flight was only $1,328.90. I begged him to let us get that trip because there were no better deals online at all. He said he was going to go to the agency and book a cheaper and better ticket. Well he booked a ticket for Friday and it was closer to $2,000 but ALHAMDULILLAH! Everything will be ok. I need to breathe. All of my frustrations in life are coming to a head right now with the excitement I feel for seeing Tarik again and it sucks that I am crying everyday because of other things and not jumping for joy because of Tarik.

GRRRR!!!!!! I wish I could be free to enjoy my happiness but people keep ruining it. Now I am at work and my face is splotchy and red because I've been crying. Now I need to find some makeup.

WOOOOSSSAAAHHHHHH

Congratulations on his arrival! According to your timeline I see its been almost a year. The crying is normal. Probably just much anxiety and anticipation.. Just revel in the thought of soon being able to enjoy his presence.

Yaaaaaaayyy!

But he's coming! That's all that matters now!

And August 8th is just around the corner!

Congratulations on the visa and his upcoming arrival.

Inchallah, he'll be here in no time flat!

Take a deep breath...hold it for 4 seconds....exhale deeply for 4 seconds....it's magic!!

Luv everything will be just fine!!! All that matters is he has his flight and will be coming...

Have a great Friday!!

Hope everything goes according to plan. I agree with the grr on the price. My husband was going to try and find his own ticket too, thinking the agency would be cheaper than online. It was almost double so I won . But like the others said, he'll be here in a week and you can be married and start your happily ever after. Hope the other things subside so you can enjoy your reunion and wedding.

Congrats!! One step closer...ticket and now just waiting the week out! Yippee!!

Relax, breath and SMILE! Ignore other people and think about all the plans you will have once he arrives! Plus think about things to help him with his transition into life in the US...its truly the hardest part for them when they arrive. Good luck!!!

Yeesh! I hope that's mainly due to it being summer and last minute rather than fuel costs.

Someone always thinks they know better then you do. Sorry it was a costly lesson this time.

It's just all the time waiting, the paperwork, the fears.......coming out. Ignore any fools who try and bring you down. Hang in there.

Congrats.

Congrats on him comming, Said and I are planning him comming the 28th, and he went to the travel agent in El Jadida and said it was too expensive, so hes going to send me the money so I can get the ticket from here, the problem is that i dont know how long its going to take or how much hes going to be able to get from his dad and I found a ticket for 1,098.20 but they wont last long. Im going crazy waiting to be able to buy the ticket.

[Muh and me 18]

Congrats on him coming home finally!!!! You have to remember its high season there now and even coming here ticket prices are going to be very expensive. Be happy he is coming and plan for your special day!!! The day he gets here and wedding day!!!! Take a deep breath and all will be fine.

Most mosques will NOT marry you in America until you are already married legally. We ran into this in both Florida and Illinois. Check ahead with your mosque and ask their requirements.

The hurry is that living together while unmarried is Haram (a sin). So basically he'll be here, but I can't really ................ enjoy him until we get married. SO, since the courthouse is closed on the weekends, I have to wait until monday to obtain the license from the court and then go to the mosque to get married. Make sense?

Won't God forgive you for a few days? I think he will.
