Still no noa2.  It has been 111 days now.  This waiting is so stressful.  I feel so emotionally crazy over the weekend.  Not only that we still don't have the approval (hopefully), I skipped the flight going to the US to visit him because I couldn't decide properly with all the stress.  Turned out, skipping it only stressed me out more.  I hope, when my fiance goes home from work today, he'll get a surprise in the mailbox.  We signed up for USPS informed delivery but it's not available in his zip code.  So everything will be a surprise for us.

Afternoon,    Its even worst when you have to wait till your fiance gets off from work to check mail after  so many LONG  hours  everyday and to hear  NO no mail :(

I really hope we all get  NOA2 this week so we can start plan more.  Sitting waiting  is getting  boring and we getting  rings around our eyes from not  sleeping :P 

I can imagine! I am the petitioner, so at least I will have the satisfaction of being able to check my mailbox and getting the news first. Haha! :jest:

You decided not to come to the US to see your fiance because you couldn't decide if you wanted to?

You should have  gone  .. it  helps  when you stressed out ...to be  together..  just a simple  hug   takes  worries  away :(

I wish i could  go to mine but  i need all the  money i have  saved  up for the  medical/vacines and  paperwork  for me and  my  kids..  so  no chance  of  that for me..

Hope you change your  mind ..

i couldn't decide if i wanted to fly out or not.  i hesitated because of the stress of waiting and it felt like the long flight with the long lay over were stressful too. and it was all emotional illusion.  after i let go of the thought that our petition had not been looked at (perhaps) but others after our filing date had been approved already, it became clear that i decided wrong.  i miss him a lot. and that just made this waiting more stressful.  but maybe it was for the best.  everything's in perfect order. :)

Probably gonna get some heat for saying this, but wow I wish my fiancee had such luxury. I think if you are able to go see him, you should! It would cause me great concern if my fiancee decided not to come see me due to being too stressed from not having the petition touched. But to each his own

i did change my mind.  i called the ticketing agency if i can have the ticket rebooked to a later date, but we have to pay more than the price of the original ticket. :( oh well, i hope that everything will be better from now on.  i guess i just have to change my mindset so i can survive this wait.

I would go if I could without thinking it twice too, but I think some people reach a stress level where thinking of another airport farewell is just too much for them in the current situation. We all have down moments. 

Cheer up, it will happen sooner or later, but we are closer than when we started this process. :)
