I am also new here.
Me and my husband have been married for almost 4 years.
And also we've been having this long distance relationship ever since we met and got married.
We are both 26 years old.
Together we have a 2 years daughter and an 8 months boy.We are very proud of them and they helped us be strong all these years of being apart from eachother.

My husband has just become American citizen.He is also Romanian,like me.
Needless to say that in all that time that he was a legal permanant resident he couldn't bring us to live with him becuase of the immigration laws.

In a couple of days he'll have the oath ceremony ,and then he'll be able to apply for I-130 ...finally, after all these years of waiting and waiting apart from eachother and kids.

I can hardly wait...especially for him to receive the noa from I-130 and then apply for k3 .
In all these 4 years of waiting and being apart..I got so sick of this situation..all I want is be able to be with my husband , be a normal family, and raise our 2 children together.

It was and still is so painful to feel like a single mom..to fight the every day life alone, without my husband...without the man that I l love...it is very painful to see my 2 children grow without knowing their father and starting our family life ...me here in Romania and he at 11.000 km far away from us.

Even though we speak on the phone every single day, even though we see each other on web cams ..it is not the same as being physically together...I 'm missing him sooooooooo much.
But then I guess all of you know this better....

I just want all this finally come to an end and just be together all 4 of us...

Good luck with everything and we'll keep in touch!

Hugs to you, Dani

I am also new here.

Me and my husband have been married for almost 4 years.

And also we've been having this long distance relationship ever since we met and got married.
