    Happy Birthday!
    I really understand the whole deal about Christmas. I had made plans with my wife months ago though that if her interview ended up being anywhere near Christmas that I would come there and celebrate with her family. This will be her last Christmas with them for a few years at least so I want to be sure she has that time for them.

    So you're drinking while posting, and contradicting yourself. She's not interested in coming to the US... wants you to move there...except she's going to get here soon?
    So now you have to explain again how you didn't mean what you said. Don't blame me again for this. Manipulative people are experts at wording things so that they can mean or not mean anything, and their stories change when people point out the contradictions. Honest people are so straightforward that their words cannot be misunderstood.
    I notice now you are claiming to tell her these things that previously you questioned worthy of telling.
    Mine is laying down next to me in bed watching me type this, and we're closing in on five years now. I don't fall for these relentless attempts to attack my self-esteem. It is however a classic sign of a manipulator, and Filipinas need to see this in an Americano they are having a relationship with.

    Thanks because this is precisely what the interviewers/CFO counsellors are trained to spot: Shifty excuses for not telling your fiance about your criminal record or bankruptcy. If the interviewer sees that your fiance doesn't know, people are telling you by experience your chances of getting rejected suddenly go way up.
    Gotta love this kind of manipulative reasoning: "I'm not going to tell my fiance about my criminal record because it's like telling her about all my old girlfriends". We get it, alright. Your fiance has a lot of this to deal with in her future.
    My wife doesn't have a college degree and I have a PhD. But she knew what kind of work I did within a day of meeting me. The inablity to explain your work in a technical field to someone else outside of it shows a complete lack of empathy for them. That's a sign of YOU having a problem, not HER. My wife does not understand nonlinear regression. But she can understand me saying that I forecast energy prices. Or that I evaluate the feasibility of hydroelectric dams, ports, and other projects.
    It's more of a put-down people like to use that others "couldn't understand" what you do. Everyone has things they do better than others. So what.
