hey VJ memebers ,

today i tried to post new thread regarding how the AP effecting us and our loved one ,somehow the topic was not posted,therefore i thought i should just jump in here and have that posted here,,

ok let me start with my own ,,lately AP has realy effected my relation with my husband ,i m very depressed and soo moody with my dear husband who is my entire world,,things we never said to each other now days we do,,

anyone gone through such time during AP if so please share them with me and advice me how did u manage to keep ur relation as lovely as before :crying:

Salam fire w wind!

I am also in AP since 10/11/2008 and this is a dark hole.Its very difficult to be patience and happy in this period but all we can do is just wait wit and wait.

And speacially in my condition when my wife is seriously sick we really need each other very much.Whenever she calls me she just asks me that when you are going to get your visa ,when u r coming?

Just imagine now she just think abt me to come there.I try really very hard to give her patience try to become very loving n polite even i m in mush worse condition.I cannot even do my business all day all time i just try to relax myself.

Speacially when i think she is serious she needs me then it becomes me more more frustrated but i never show this infront of her.Coz i beleive that if i will do act like this then she will loose her hope.

So sister!

Just try to be calm and try to busy in other activities its very difficult but beleive me it will work.One more thing which is that if u r sad and feeling alone,moody then just think ur husband would be the same.

Try to be loving ,nice and polite and do some activity.

Wish u best of luck! :thumbs:

I hear you! I am in the same boat. We have been in AP since June 24, 2008. I am doing the same--saying things I never would have dreamt of saying, thinking thoughts I never would have thought. It is like we are going through everything wrong with a relationship in a matter of months and in the first years of our marriage. I don't know how to advise you, because what can you do to occupy your time when you are consumed by wondering? Just know that there are others who share your utter frustration and problems here.

Isn't this what marriage is about, holding fast when the road is rocky! ?

I say use this period as a 'learning' experience and practice patience. Life comes at you fast and there will be ups and downs in marriage, and that is how a couple learn about each other and grow .... make this a means to water your love.

This AP is not o your fault, not his fault, the embassy doesn't hate us ... it's no1's fault. There is a time for everything!

I am sure God will reward us for this wait and soon we all will have our 'happily ever after'

good lucks n prayers 4 you all,

Yesterday is history, Tomorrow's a mystery. Today is a gift; that'swhy they call it "the present".

I have been in shock for the last week. I am mostly together at the moment. I was told at the interview I was approved pending the supply of my Australian Police Check. I supplied it and then somehow ended up in AP.

Have got the lawyer and congressman in on it, but I am now in a holding pattern. No job, got made redundant after I came back from the US in the New Year (I work in finance). Can't get a new job in the meantime as the USE London has my passport. Can't go anywhere don't have a passport. I'm an Aussie stuck in the UK in a weird limbo.

DairyFarmer I hope your AP is short lived

Fire w wind

I don't discuss AP very often it is the worst thing I have ever been through I am a planner and the unknown date is like a knife stabbing me all day long If they would just give me a date any date I think I could except that and look forward to that date. I bought a new home for me and my husband in July and I still haven't moved into it. I find it to upsetting. I thought it would be a happy day us moving together into a new home. But things haven't worked out that way. LOL maybe soon

I can related to this, Divorced, I am such a planner too! I planned for my husband's arrival last year after his interview. Got everything ready, and looked forward to being together, and now it seems like such a joke. It is very difficult not having any control over such a major part of your life.
