WHAT IF.......

[mikeandjoana 1]

Like what everyone said here if you don't like seeing threads that are not helpful for you then better not read it. It is not an obligation for you to read all the threads here, instead just read the one that you need. Like what they said i think your still on the first part of the process so I guess it is much better and healthier for you to read the ones that are related to your process. In that way, you will not feel envy or jealous with us who already has the visa.

I and my fiance are very lucky to find this site because without the help of all the visa journey members we will not be able to get thru our journey and be with each other soon. So your saying that posting visa approved! visa arrived! etc. are not helpful for you? Think!!!!!! because i believe that those post are guides for everyone. If you have questions on what to do while waiting for your approval you can email any of us here. Because we will all be happy to help everyone.

Again, CONGRATULATIONS to all those who passed their visa interview this month and for all those who received their visa including myself. lol. See you all in US.

And for the OP godbless on your journey and just pray. Im sure your own thread of being passed will be here soon.

I will give you a helpful suggestion, since you applied for a K-3 visa, review the K-3 process under the forum heading. Then if you have a specific question that you don't understand about it, post a question asking to explain it. You will receive many posts to help you with your question. That is how we all learned about getting thru the visa process. and yeswe feel your frustration but sharing our successes with each other is how we got thru it and maybe make a friend or 2 along the way.

Most of those who posted here to inform us that they got their visas are the same people who posted a lot in forums that helped other people in the past and are still helping us now. They have posted their questions, shared their experiences and announce their victories. I do not see any problem with that. Most of us here also developed friends as we go along even though we have not seen each other in person. t is always nice to share our victories with our friends.

To all who received their visas, and those who are yet to receive them, my warmest congratulations and my deepest thanks to all of you. You may not know it but one of your posts even just a simple answer to somebody else's question have helped me and others, too.

To those who failed, I mourn for you, but remember, there is always a second chance. In God's time, it will come.

To Mariel, have patience, your time will come.

FINALLY! A PERSON WHO UNDERSTAND A SIMPLE "OPINION"! AM I TRYING TO CREATE AN ARGUMENT HERE? IF POSTING AN OPINION MEANS AN ARGUMENT TO ALL OF YOU? TO ALL THE PINAY WHO COMMENT ON THIS AND TRY TELLING ME HOW JEALOUS I AM, TOO CHILDISH, TOO IMMATURE....ALL THOSE FREAKING NEGATIVE COMMENT....SALAMAT! NOW I KNOW HOW INSONCONSIDERATE YOU ARE TO OTHER PEOPLE FEELINGS. YES,I ENVY THEM...WHO DOES NOT?! BUT I AM JUST STATING MY OPINION...."OPINION"! MY OWN POINT OF VIEW....WE ALL HAVE OUR OPINION...AND IM ENTITLED WITH ONE!

LOOK AT YOURSELF, TELL ME WHO IS ACTING IMMATURE HERE? DID I POST "HIT ME UP AND ARGUE WITH ME?" NO! IT CLEARLY STATED "ITS JUST AN OPINION"......AND I RESPECT ALL OF YOU WHO COMMENT ON MY POST...NOW I KNOW!

AND TO THOSE WHO PRIVATE MESSAGE ME UNDERSTANDING WHAT I FEEL AND JUST DONT WANT TO POST OR REPLY....THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING....AND YES, I BELIEVE YOU DONT NEED TO REPLY HERE....COZ PEOPLE WHO DONT KNOW WHAT "OPINION" MEANS MIGHT "ARGUE WITH YOU".............

KEEP POSTING....I APPRECIATE IT! LIKE WHAT I SAID AND WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE POSTING "I/ WE DONT CARE" (THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL POSTING?..HMMMM)

I AM HAPPY TO THOSE PEOPLE WHO'S VISA WAS GRANTED! (and envy them as well.....) and I am not against those people posting that their Visa was granted, that they recieved good news with their visa process.....

BUT....will it be better if you can just post topics that can help other people who are waiting and almost hopeless people waiting for their visas? or other topic that can be useful while waiting for the visa? (example: What are things you need to know? to prepare? to expect?..blah..blah!)

I know we are all happy for you...but will it make us feel better? I don't think so....coz as for my part it would make me feel more desperate to be with the Love of my Life...coz majority of the topic is "finally,received my visa", "have an interview schedule",blah blah....but what do they respond to them..."Congratulations!" that's it!

Again,I'm just stating what i feel....hate me..i dont care.....but can we just be more helpful and useful here to others who are desperately waiting for their visa approvals?

It's your opinion I respect it. But for my opinion vj is not about the processing visa only.... it's about our life. Most of people here getting a visa is to be with the one they love. They have all work hard before they granted their visa. They deserve... We all deserve to share the good news we had not always problems or worries about our visa. Like in my case I have hepaB because of my disease I have so many worries but because of those members who got passed on their medical and granted a visa inspite of having hepaB I feel relief. They share they experience to me how they struggle until they got their visa. They give me stregth, take away my worries, they lift my spirit high, guide me and they give me inspiration that I can do it too. I am truly happy for those who granted their visa. Thanks for sharing the good news.

aheheheheheheheheh....your sooooo funny..) ) ) you are in state of denial.. yup..I know how it feels..going through this journey..I hated everyone around me, even my family, I was always grouchy, I forgot to smile..

I was tired of that stage..when there were times about our petition was not what I expected it to be.. I just laughed and laughed.. I couldn't take it anymore.. I didn't want to think about the petition at all...

but we are almost there.. be patient.. you have to stay strong..

CHILDRESS_LONDON:

Thank you for understanding.....and NOT ARGUING with me...yeah,I know this is an OPEN FORUM, state what you feel...but why do people think that I am arguing with them? I'm not.....Yes I DO envy the people who got their visas..kindly read my post again..tell/show me if i write something that I don't like reading their posts? or i am having a crab mentality? I am happy for them..I am just stating my own opinion here.

VJ is a FAMILY?!(i dont think so...) maybe for some who understands. FAMILY stays together thru bad and good times, FAMILY dont leave your side when you're down and depressed...they even calm you down....

Please read my post VERY CAREFULLY before reacting so very mean thiings about me....you dont know what I feel coz you dont care......

FYI...i read other people's post about their visa and im happy for them...AGAIN AGAIIN AGAIN......i am just having my opinion. if i have to writte down over and over again....to let you people know what im trying to point out....I WILL!!!!

This is a discussion i've seen come up so many times. The process is difficult and people deal with it in so many different ways.

You have those who feel like the OP and have a difficult time dealing with others celebrating what they want so badly for themselves.... and then you have those like sara (estadia) who have been waiting almost 2 years, yet still congratulate everyone for moving on!

In our case, we had to wait years just to file and it was very difficult. I was a member here at VJ long before I sent the actual petition off. I remember the envy but I also remember making the choice to be happy for those folks who went before me. I think it was actually easier for me to deal with our own wait. I would often remind myself that I didn't know their story and perhaps it was even more heart-wrenching than ours. I remember others approvals giving me so much hope and with each one, knowing that our time was going to come..eventually and that we would feel like that too. Sure, the wait is difficult, but we each really do have a choice in how we deal with it.

To the OP. I understand your frustrations and wish I could offer you more support than these few words. But I also feel like those who reach the point where they are finally able to celebrate have every right to post and they should. It makes a lot of people happy to see the progress. I still feel my heart fill up when I know someone is as happy as I was when that day finally came for us. It warms the soul.

I don't think this process is spelled out any better than it is here in the PI forum. Whatever questions you have.. just ask. You are sure to get a flurry of advice and support from the people here.

Do what you can and what you have to do to keep yourself happy until it's finally your turn too. good luck!

Oo nga eh ang taray ha! Mahirap talaga maghintay ng approval from NOA1 to Visa delivery. Halos pareho lahat ng emotions ng mga taga VJ habang naghihintay. Pero kapag nandiyan na ang visa, ang saya-saya! Para kang nanalo sa lotto!
