trying to handle it yourself can land you in jail...stay away for

If you have a specific immigration question someone may be able to help here.

Ah I see. There is nothing more for me to add, OP has received good advice which doesn't seem to sink in somehow.

1. Divorce

2. Lawyer for custody

3. ROC with divorce waiver.

4. Professional counseling to gain clarity on the family dynamics.

Sorry I had to start this post, cuz I keep wanting to fix things with my wife

I understand that you want to fix things with the wife, but we aren't going to be able to provide you any additional advice, you should follow the guidance in your other thread. Consult a lawyer, Marriage Counseling, Personal Counseling. Everyone has already given you the advice that forum junkies can provide, you will need to start following the advice, and seek professional assistance.

Ok so since I got here we were fighting a lot about the weed and she hit me several times and sometimes I can't do anything but I replied few times cuz it was really hard.. The weed wax made her head wrong. So she lied and said I hit her. But I have videos of her with a bottle of wine trying to hit me and videos of emotinal abuse I insulting my family '. Her mom is an alcoholic and did everything to make me problems and take the baby like restraining order, but I didn't get any paper. So now I need a legal aid I live in Los Angeles..

I want to save our mariage. Plus we have a son I wanted him to have his both parents with him. The problem is that it's her who is upset. I can't even get my stuff I only have one pant and one pair of shoes, I had quit life in Paris before I come here

Posted (edited)

Sorry I had to start this post, cuz I keep wanting to fix things.

I would like to advice please stay calm and focus on yourself. Relationship is like sand of beach more you try to hold it in your hand,it will slid and slip. People are right here, you are showing sign that you are co-dependant in relationship. Only a co-dependant person tolerate and wants to live in abusive person. She doesn't respect you or this marriage. You deserve someone with whom you have mutual understanding; arguments in relationships are natural but has some boundaries; once it cross that boundaries and become abusive;save yourself. Life is short; do not struggle to fix something which cannot be fixed. You are here, earn good money, hire a lawyer and take child custody. Good luck

And yes read about co-depandancy
