I met my wife for the first time in 2005, but we were children then, so nothing happened.
Visited Bangladesh in July 2010, and hit it off right away.
On August 2010, we made it official, and got married. But because I was at school at the time, I didn't have the wherewithal to apply.
I started my first job out of college on August 2012. And now, three months later, I've finally applied!! Now it's that long wait.....but being a part of this community sure helps in making that wait just that much more bearable :-).
