MY FIANCE IS READY TO GO HOME

Here's something that helped us, si man. Mrs. T-B. had been to the U.S. before, but she was terribly homesick when she arrived "for real." She isn't particularly religious, but almost right away, I found a church for her that offered services in Spanish. She met a lot of good acquaintances there, a couple of whom became friends. She was always very happy and upbeat when I picked her up afterwards, si man, and she even wanted to introduce me to some of the people whom she'd met.

That's a good wholesome environment to keep a new immigrant (especially a Latino) from falling in with the wrong crowd, which can be easy to do in less-controlled environments when the vulnerability level of the new immigrant is off the charts.

:thumbs: I must agree!

I would suggest talking to your fiance to see where your relationship is headed. If it's solid, then you can still get married and do AP so that when that is approved, you guys can make a trip to his homeland ASAP, in the mean time, seek out fellow Dominicans, like restaurants, groceries, having social support really helps people who find themselves suddenly in a strange land! Good luck to you guys!!

This is very true!!! If my husband didnt have such great support and friends in our local Moroccan community I think he would be in the same situation. He gets home sick so easily...every time he talks to his family he is sad afterwards. You alone might not be enough to keep his heart in good spirits...I a am my husbands best friend and wife...but he needs some of his own 'kind' to be able to feel comfortable in this land....I am thankful every day that we have such a strong and close Moroccan (LARGE) community here where he has many friends to hang out with and talk with and not just me.
