I think the most difficult part of the journey is really being apart from your loved ones... the separation and long distance relationship is a lot more difficult than I have imagined. Taking this step to go through with the k1 visa processing takes courage... as one party probably never lived in US before. Its all a learning process ... and once he comes here, there we are with the AOS process... but at least by then, we are together everyday.
