I'm back and have more questions..

[Ban Hammer 12,835]

It's all good but I don't like when threads are like "seagul management". Fly in, poop and fly out. I like clarification...

you left out "lots of squawking "

My opinion is that this thread is headed here:

You know, My Mo - I hope you can see that VJ is a great resource for everyone. And like others have posted, you've got a real motley crew in here. I lurked around VJ in 2004 - never became a member, joined in 2007 during our Removal of Conditions and hung out through Citizenship, and now am a full-fledged cohort on this site. I somehow managed to come to MENA one day while I was just kind of surfing around VJ. But over time, I've become great friends with the group of ladies and gentleman who are on this forum. I have grieved with them, rejoiced with them, sent money for funeral tributes, had trees planted for an infant's death, sent Xmas gifts for those who are going through a difficult time in this economy - and I never once questioned myself, saying, "well, since I'm not MENA, should I do this?" It has always been me approaching my husband saying, I want to do this for one of my friends on VJ.

I hope I didn't offend you, but I was reading my posts in your earlier thread and I don't think I could or should have. But I am one of those devil's advocates when it comes to immigration issues - I have seen things go splendidly well for many people and ape-sh!t crazy for others. So, having seen the best and the worst, I choose to advise wisely and give people food for thought. VJ is such a treasure for so many people and in so many ways. If you use it to your advantage, you will be way ahead of the immigration game. Normally, I see many people coming to VJ after they had an issue with USCIS or DOS and trying to get their ducks in a row after the tragedy has happened, rather than staving it off at the pass. For you to jump allover everyone when you asked for advice about your evidence and people gave it to you honestly, well, don't be too shocked if people aren't as sweet as pie to you afterwards. We did want to help you and we will in the future - if you let us. But don't be surprised if the response you want to hear in the future is different then the one you receive.

I've been here for a "bit" and have seen LOTZ of drama, not just about this issue. I would also offer up that there is drama on every single forum on the internet. People get behind a keyboard and will say all kinds of things that they might not ever say in real life. It IS a public forum and people are free to say whatever they want. And sure, it can hurt like h#ll sometimes...but it's NOT real life.

My relationship with my husband isn't subject to ANYONE'S rules on this message board or anywhere else for that matter. It's between us.

I understand that these MBs can offer alot of support when you don't have much in real life, but still you cannot hang your life on what people say on this board.

I admit I was stumped on the 'MB's' ...could not think of what that could be...then it hit me 'Major Biatches' oh snap..message boards.

[Nita&Assaad 0]

My advise would be DO NOT POST anything personal on these forums because then you give the whole world access to your life. Your relationship is just that YOUR Relationship no one elses!

Seems like some people have to much time on their hands or have nothing better to do then to just go off on people...

Good Luck!!

dayum...that gave me a good giggle!!!!!

I belong to another MB and there is alot of abbreviation there. I had to keep going back to delete stuff in my post because I was afraid people wouldn't understand.

Can't say that I haven't thought the other a time or two though......
