Hehe you'll definitely hear from her the moment she knows and has the chance to text, your together in this, you two made it this far together.

Your making me happy just reading about it.

:) I dunno what to say! Needless to say, I was very pessimistic about the success of this process. I'm still indifferent to the fact that I've made it this far. I still can't believe it!

Thank you very much!

I hope everything goes well with your situation as well. I read about it and really felt for you as I felt all that same angst.

It was this forum that really got me through some tough times with this process. I sincerely hope everything goes all right for you. I didn't bother with a lawyer in my process. I did it the risky way and just chanced it. Trust me--I came into this process completely pessimistic and unorganized. You, sir, will make it through this. Trust me, I'm not very organized with this kind of stuff, LOL!

Hey, everyone! LOL! Nope! No word yet but I'm still waiting! It's 2 AM in my place and I don't care! I won't sleep a wink till I hear from her! :thumbs:

Best of luck to both of you!!! You have our prayers for a happy and speedy interview!!!

Thanks :)

Thanks Vann, I'm sure I'll be ok things have a way of working out. I'm not sure a lawyer was needed at this point, I'm feeling a bit lost frankly. I'm fairly careful about everything, I think I should have just handled this, I hired a lawyer because my girlfriend couldn't read english forms well enough, nor I Thai forms. Who knows what's right, I won't give advice on that. Your inspiring me, I thank you. If I had any advice at all, it would be learn all you can about the culture and the language, it will serve you well.

Well, it makes me feel good to know I can help others with this situation! :) See? Proof that a pessimist like me could have success!!!! So unorganized and confused and yes--I felt lost too and look! Success!!! :D

I will say that it helped she's from the Philippines as they really use English a lot in their forms there.

Regardless, just stay the course. You seem more organized than I am so I'm sure you'll do fine :)

Congratulations!!! GOd bless you both :D

Sleep well Vann, WOOOOHOOO!!!! indeed I couldn't express more then that.

I can't promise updates (obviously after years of 0 posts).

You have a lot ahead of you..I think you could help a lot of people.

I had a bad day, and you gave me that uplift I needed, a success story, I was a small part of that experience. I thank you for that

My best regards to you and your Pinay, (I think thats lady in Phino?)

Congratulations

I honestly hope all goes well for you.

All of you kept we quite calm last night and I appreciate that. :)
