    As for OP you go ahead and file. Worst case they might put you in AP. If your story is true then things should resolve themselves. It may just take longer than usual.

    Just curious...what is special about Morocco, specifically, that makes their "good" men superior to "good" men from other countries? Is it the accent? The skin? The smooth moves? Are they more romantic? Do they take the garbage out with more finesse? They can make a mean mutton tagine? I must know this secret!!!

    You do not offend meI don't think you are caustic. I have no idea whether you were used for papers or have been through any of the things that I have been through but for whatever reason, you felt compelled to write me. Its a hell of a lot easier to judge me than to understand that I want to be happy again. I think seriously my ex and his mother would have been happy had I died of respiratory arrest and been able to liquidate my assets and take money from my kids. The two of them were seriously twisted pieces of ###### and when my ex's older brother died 2 days before he got his citizenship, which he forced me to file for him under threat of going after my house, it was ME who held him and wiped his tears and helped make sure he ate.I literally had to hold on to my house, my money and my life with both hands. I married a con artist and a sociopath. Getting used for papers was the least of my problems. My ex had schizophrenia and I think his family was thrilled to ship him here to the US and get him out from under their feet. When I got my divorce papers last month and got my house back 100 percent in my name, it was as if a million pounds lifted off of my shoulders.
    I have been happy to spend ANY happy time with friends and experience ANYTHING new. I spent 5 years without my hand being held, without my hair being stroked and for whatever reason, my family did not have the balls to stand up to him and his nonsense. It wasnt until I just decided that I was going to get safe that I was able to make the bold moves I needed to make to make sure my money and my house was safe.
    Sometimes the things that people write are in a way cautionary tales. I used to warn women against marrying guys from North Africa because the majority of these marriages in my opinion end up in divorce and the men marry women from back home. But after watching what happened to me and how little it actually had to do with nationality and more to do with not actually knowing my ex before committing myself financially to him, I decided that talking about what happened and talking about my GOOD experiences with people from over there and YES I have plenty of good stories to relate would be a hell of a lot more healing to me.
    I can wait to love again when I am not sick but I am always cycling between sick and well because of the auto immune. I was well for a month and was in the hospital Friday for 12 hours. The guy I like has very bad diabetes and has health issues as well so he empathizes with me. We talk we laugh. We might very well NOT be a couple. And thats perfectly ok. I want to be happy. I want to like people from over there again like I did for 5 years before I met my ex. I want to continue to travel. I am planning on going to Morocco sometime this year. My daughter is Moroccan. I don't want to be miserable and bitter. I dont want to be unhappy and I cant wait to be well, because it might never happen. I might very well drift in and out of illness until I die. But I can make the choice to be happy. I am going to make that choice. I loved my ex very very very very very much and he wasn't ALWAYS hurting me. But he did waste a huge chunk of my life and I don't want him to be a part of my collective memory. I want to see other things, other people, hear other songs and not live in the sadness...I don't want to be bitter. I am willing to drop the baggage off on the curb. But what happened DID happen to me and my poor choice of marrying someone I did not know DID have horrible consequences for me financially. I talk on here to my friends because I wanted them to know what I was up to. I am taking care of myself. I have cut my hair and colored it. I wear makeup now and I am trying to take care of myself. I am reading books I didnt have time for and watching movies I needed to watch.
    I am looking for sunnier skies and I decided that each day better be fruitful! I wasted a hell of a lot of time with square pegs thats for damn sure

    Ok, right...you don't know me, but I know of your story even from when it first started. Let me just say that what you went through is horrific and really heartbreaking, and I'm terribly sorry that you had to endure that.
    Out of everything I've ever read of yours, this post (and the poem) is the most troubling. So let me play armchair shrink for a second, and give you a different POV.
    First of all, if your lungs are failing, and your kidneys are shot, you need a doctor, not a boyfriend or dinner date.
    Secondly, the *most important* person you need to get love from is YOURSELF.
    You refer to this man as 'morphine' which I feel is so very telling. I think it betrays your 'oh I'm just being silly' act. No other person can take away your pain. It would be great if it were possible, but it's not. You cannot carry this baggage around forever. Well, technically you can, but honest to God, I can't see that being pleasant for you or any of your friends/loved ones. I know I'm sounding like a horrible cow, but I didn't make this post to berate you; I did it in hopes of maybe being a blast of cold water on your face. It would be fair to neither you nor this other man if you even go for a dinner date, become fwb, or anything like that...until you are at peace with your *past*. Don't drag that sh!t around forever...it's not worth it. And what purpose is it serving you? Go to your ex's house at 2am...what do you think he's doing? He'll be sleeping. That's right...he's losing no sleep whatsoever over what happened with you, but you're just tearing your heart out over and over again, falling into a pit of what I see as depression.
    I'm not suggesting it's just that simple to let go...but I really and honestly am suggesting you get some therapy. That is *not* meant as an insult at all....but when you refer to some casual friend as morphine, it's gotta set off some alarm bells somewhere. Your poem made me incredibly sad and I practically felt your pain.
    You have every opportunity to live a happy life for the rest of your days...but that is down to you. If you're going to claim defeat now, you will fulfill your own prophecy. If you want your life to change, you have to be the one to change it.
    I know I have a caustic style, and I probably have offended you, which I truly didn't mean to. I wish you the best of luck.

    I agree... and its not just me that is damaged !
    Just being single ,I am meeting some hot mess men out here! I dont know if even having a "type" is the greatest idea LOL...
    Is it ok to admit this #######? I think I feel bad about ADMITTING that I would like to have something resembling a satisfying relationship...Its like wanting to be96 pounds when you are 150 or wanting a new car when you can barely afford the car you have...
    Is it ok to long for normality? For intimacy? To have faith that things will improve? Isnt there a fine line between being realistic and being a dreamer?

    rade2rising reacted to elmcitymaven in Petitioner or Beneficiary?   
    The only problem that has been raised in the past about this idea (and it has been floated several times before) is that some couples post under the same account, some members have not filed yet (so are neither beneficiary nor petitioner), some filers are past the petition stage (i.e. ROC, citizenship), and some are neither petitioner nor beneficiary at all.
    At best, it should be an optional field.

    rade2rising reacted to Enigma11561 in Called by ICE just after I filed my I130 and I485 forms.   
    Just trying to be a bit logical here. You overstayed your F1 by 4 months. Not a terrible thing. But you married a USC and filed the proper paperwork. I cannot see how you were entered into the system on the 16th and then got a call on the 17th. The government just does not work that fast. ICE may not have been aware of those filings. So having a lawyer would be a smart move, but my spidey sense tells me that once you present all the other docs things will be better. Let's face it. If they really wanted you, they would have knocked on your front door, not ask you for an appointment when "you are available".
