Were you the crankiest person alive...

[ynatots 0]

Hello to all!

I noticed a big difference in me after my I-130 has been approved. Whenever my husband and I would fight (over chat or the phone), it is simply because of one thing, I was too tired of waiting for us to be together! Before my approval, I am really lazy in getting up from bed and preparing to go to work. (especially when you wake up all alone in bed). I really hate talking about my migration to the US. I really get upset when someone asks me "when will you join your husband in the US?" I mean it's not that easy to go the US! and someone would suggest, why don't you try getting a tourist visa? As if it is that easy for me to get one!!! With my background on physical therapy and my husband's pending petition, i'll be denied just by thinking of getting a tourist visa.

Anyway, i think that was the "old me." And here comes the good news, my husband's petition got approved after his citizenship! I was still a bit of a nagger after that because i really want to get the ball rolling like prepare and submit everything we need since I really don't want to waste time and be with hubby ASAP. But now, I think i'm better since my papers are already at NVC and we just need to be on our toes when it comes to submitting everything. I am slowly looking forward to waking up in the morning because i know that it's a day closer for my hubby and me to be together forever and not just together for a two-month vacation or something temporary. Now i'm getting nervous and excited at the same time since it will be a new life for me waiting in the US with my husband. We will be starting a new life together finally after 2 years of being married and 8 years of having a relationship with him.

I don't know if i am the only one experiencing these things when it comes to waiting...i just need to hear that someone out there also felt the same way...

Not cranky, but, at least waiting for the NOA2, pretty damn stressed, given some of the horror stories here. Especially with great people like estadia waiting ridiculous amounts of time (bless Sara and Perviz), I feel very lucky, and one thing that's for sure is when it comes to relationships and life, I take nothing for granted.

I went through something like that too... It's like after Noa2 a huge weight is off your sholders and you see that it is actually getting real

No. I was quite happy with my life back in Canada and was in no major rush to get here.

hmmm i didnt used to be cranky but lately just about anything sets me off lol......now i find myself bitting my tongue a lot before i speak and taking a sec or two before voicing an answer to any question cuz i found i can sound very sharp with any answers with out meaning to..........but i guess this too will pass as the period of time i cried a lot passed

I am not cranky but yes I am very excited and i honestly, literrally could not sleep anymore. After I became a citizen i immediately upgraded my I-130 petition to my husband...and that was just a week ago. CSC said to wait for 45 days but still i can wait any longer. I cant help but check the status of the petition almost everyday. But with no luck though (of course).

I cant sleep anymore and i cant work anymore. (just like what i am doing now, I am checking these forum at work). The anticipation is so intense that i keep day dreaming of being with my husband and how life will be like when we finally get together.

I am so excited for you too. Hope my husband feels the same way like you do.

I'm married to Platy. I can't tell the difference between cranky then or now.

i'm still waiting and i'm all the way cranky, this stuff drives me crazy

spell cranky - you come up with my name.

Yes I do often get cranky and it usually comes from tiny things that have nothing to do with immigration.

And then it will trigger the core of the matter, the waiting, the worries, the questions, etc. It's not even waiting for the NOA2 as it won't make the process go any faster for me, I can't move until next July. I do get frustrated after all these years of waiting for everything. I'm just tired.
