My Fiancee just arrived here about 2 weeks ago. Since she has been here she has been very sensitive and cries a lot. 1 day I was not able to be with her, because my father also is in town. So I left her at her grandmothers home, I thought she would be conformable there. She would not tell me that she was hurt just cries. She then decided to leave south east texas and go and visit her Uncle in Maryland, even though I did not want her to go she left anyway. Her father in Taiwan told her to visit him. I have not heard from her and two weeks and I a very worried. What should i do? Should I be worried that she has changed her mind about marring me? Should I just give her some time?

I moved to the states from Taiwan about 15 years about and my fiancee is a Taiwanese as well. I might be able to give you some ideas if you can provide more details about the entire situation and if she was here to visit or she was here due to the approval of the I129F petition.

if you have not heard from your fiancee in 2 weeks, yea, you should be worried by now and should probably start looking for her? you should probably contact her dad to get her uncle's info. what is something happen and she didn't make it to her uncle's, or what if something happen during her stay there, etc...

Seems to me she is lucky that she has a grandmother & an uncle to visit! Most of us won't have any family in States. She should be talking to you though if she is upset.

Can you contact her father to get the uncles number?

Should I be worried that she has changed her mind about marring me?

I would be worried. How long have you known her?

Should I just give her some time?

Don't forget, you have to get married in 90 days of her arrival!

While ordinarily I would say to give her some space, because you're going through Visa proceedings, you have a right to know what's going on. It's unfair for you to be kept in the dark. You need to find some way to contact her, through friend or family. Just say you're worried about her and you want to know when she's coming home. She may be worried you're angry at her, and that is why she hasn't tried to contact you. If she knows you're just worried about her, she may be more willing to talk about how she feels, but this is absolutely something the two of you need to sort out ASAP. If she doesn't respond, then it may not look good.

2 weeks it is a lot of time, take a phone and try to reach her NOW.

Moving to the US from Asia can be a big change. (Heck, I moved back here after ~5 yrs in Europe and NZ and it was a shock for me). Are you Asian yourself? (meaning do you have a similar cultural background to her, or is there a bigger difference that she is having a tough time with?)

I know from living around the world that a new country is a huge shock, Americans who expect their foreign fiance to fit in as soon as they arrive here are in for a surprise.

The lack of communication is bad though. Even if she wasn't happy, she should be talking to you. Seems to me like she is avoiding it.

Anyway, I hope you can sort it out soon.

2 weeks? I would be freaking out! Find her and talk to her about what's going on. Like others said, the cultural difference was probably a shock to her and she might be homesick. Good luck!

My question is why you were unable to spend time with her because your father was in town? She will be his daughter-in-law, should not all three of you spend time together? Has your father met her? Has he spent too much time with her that you didn't find it necessary for her to spend this time with him? I might have ran off to my family's house too as I would have felt like a child who was not invited to the adult outing. However, I would have called the moment I arrived if I wasn't too upset about not being a part of the family outing.

If you leave her at her grandmother's when family is in town, what do you do when you want to go out with friends?

Is there more to the story?

Get in touch with her. No matter the situation, rational adults who are ready for marriage don't go across the country and then not call their fiance for 2 weeks. Either she isn't ready to get married or something serious is going on. Either way you need to know what is going on.
