Your letter of intent should be short and simple, like the example here on the site.

Just state you intend to marry within 90 days of arrival on the K-1 visa. Not how you met.

This letter you have is more for the question (18 on the 129f) of how you met. And even then, it should be fairly simple and direct. They do not care about a "romantic" meeting, they want you to describe the circumstances under which you met. (who introduced you, how you met, when you met, etc...)

I would take most of that stuff out you wrote. And like the other poster stated, she is not your wife yet, so don't refer to her as such.

is it important to write who introduced us? i only wrote when we met, which was during my trip to pakistan some years ago.

This is the wording for question 18:

Describe the circumstances under which you met. If you have not personally met each other, explain how the relationship was

established. If you met your fiancé(e) or spouse though an international marriage broker, please explain those circumstances..

So, I take that to mean, if her mom is your mom's best friend, and she introduced you to her daughter, that is the circumstance on how you met.

Everyone will have different circumstances. My own was about one paragraph, "I was introduced to Umit via her brother's wife Uncle, who works in the same company as I do. She wanted to practice english for her job. We commenced to chat with other via the internet, then in May 2008, I visited her in Istanbul, Turkey, and then Umit visted me in August 2008, and I proposed to her."

Short and sweet.

as you read the letter, you will noticed no one introduce us. I came to visit my aunt, then i saw her, she was my aunt's room mate at the time.

You have to assume that the CO will be an American. It is likely that they would conclude, based upon American societal norms, that your aunt introduced you to her roommate. How else would you know her if your aunt did not say, this is "Nham?" The COs are told that applicants must meet the test of convincing the average person. When I read your initial post, I concluded that your aunt introduced you to Nham. The family introduction is a red flag that you and she should be prepared to deal with, IMO. Just be prepared to build a solid case, because HCM is tough, as you are hearing from many sources here.
