I just want to say I am sorry that I have caused uneasy feelings on this forum. I have read all of your situtions for several weeks and was afraid to tell you mine. Afraid of getting negative feedback. But like I posted before I never expected to fall in love with someone in the US illegal and get married, but it happened. Now I am trying to fix the problem. I am sorry that some of you feel situtaions like mine is what is causing the laws to be so difficult for you and your loved one to be together. I was just trying to get some positive support from someone going thru the same thing. And thank you for all the ones who do understand.

Hey, I don't think you should worry about it too much. You're trying to fix the problem, you're not trying to perpetuate fraud or something. And as far as I know, situations like yours are not the main cause of all the recent holdup. So don't feel too guilty. I think you just ran into some jerks. Good luck with your husband's visa.

I'm just glad to see you didn't log off for good when things got a bit uncomfortable.

In my opinion, you can't unring a bell. He's here, you're married, and he has a family to take care of. I just hope his return to his home country won't cause your family too much financial distress.

At every web forum I've ever been on, even the nicest people manage to piss somebody off unintentionally. You don't need to apologize for politely seeking information in exactly the right place.

I love turnaround stories. You know, where someone realizes that what they're doing is wrong, so they turn around and do what's right. There will always be support for someone who admits their mistake and takes steps to change their life.
