Did you guys not read my last post? We're divorced. I care no more about it.

I think we're fine. I just figured out yesterday that she can send me SMS for free by e-mailing to my phone number. Also, I get free international text messages.

I wanted to thank everyone on here for their support and advice. I know I made a decision and I am sticking by it. Some might say it is stupid to take her back but I know this was the right thing to do. She hasn't gain all my trust back but she is starting over and it is going to take some time.

Topic closed at OP's request.

Best of luck brother... You have a good heart and she is really lucky for that...

You're a bigger man than I am! I sincerely hope it will work out for you and you won't regret your decision.

Same with mine. She clings to me like velcro. If it all turns out to be a sham someday then it will have been a performance worthy of an Oscar!

I think if anyone has been in a past marriage they know the #1 argument couples have is over money and budgets. Maybe the OP at one time earned more and now like many of us earns less. Maybe just maybe he is the man I read about on Yahoo that use to go to a Starbucks daily and spend 6-7 dollars as he was earning 130k a year. Now he works at that same Starbucks for $9 an hour. I went from GREAT money to okay money since 2010. I live but I cannot afford to do what I once did like many of us. For men, money issues can be embarrassing. Especially with a new wife. I have a friend that married a Filipina. I met him in Japan as I traveled back in 2009. He at one time made 100k annually selling products. Now he is earning 20-25k barely. At 100k he sent his now wife in RP $1500 montthly so she and her kids could live in nice place with all what he had here. Now most of their fights are due to his lower income and them not being able to send as much back to her family. They cannot bring her kids here either due to money. I feel for both his wife and him. He spoiled her when it was great for him; she got use to it and now as us all she is a creature of wants and needs.
I know this all has helped me with my fiancee as I have learned so much. I am open. She knows my/our budget. She works there so I only need to send her $50 a month to cover her internet as well as extra so she can eat out as I feel guilty eating out here and she not being able too. We lived together there for 6 months so she knows that I am not wealthy.
I guess in closing of this LONG WINDED reply lol... We all need to be honest with our fiancee's and not hide anything from them... Goodluck to everyone..

What about people in the US who celebrate the Fourth of July who're married to UK citizens? Does that bring any problems up for them? Would you be willing to give up the 4th for their animosity?

Sometimes I am amazed at how fast money can go, but how slowly it can accumulate.
For me, it always feels like the world knows when I get money, because so many unexpected bills or charges come up at that time making me spend everything I just got!

I think that you have to apply for K-3 visas, but maybe that's prior to marriage - After I think it's a CR-3 visa...
