Hey all.....Hope everyone is doing well ;) Everything for me is actually pretty great! The things that happened were a blessing in disguise. God has a plan for each and every one of us and I'm grateful for where I stand today. As for "HIM".... divorce is done. He's in PA, and we have had zero contact. Just the way I like it :) Happy Holidays to everyone. Love you guys and I can never express enough how appreciative I am and was for all of the positive support you all gave me during my nightmare. I could never have gotten through it without you guys. It's not everyone you can find like minded people who can empathize with you regarding non traditional situations. I know not everyones visa journey results in a fairytale ending, but whether or not your particular situation works out...always remember that whatever happened was meant to be. Even when it feels like hell, feels like you're going to die inside, when you think you don't have an ounce of energy left to fight.........you will absolutely get through it. I did <3

I hope after all what I'm going through right now I can be like you:-)

Sorry to hear you're going through a hard time. My only advice is, don't allow your heart to make decisions for you. If it doesn't feel right, that means its not and you need to do your best to get away from whatever the situation is.

Si, man -- and lovely, too. Don't be a stranger here; you'd certainly be able to give insights to others who are going through strife.
