I've also become like that at some point but my husband is just very persistent.  Whenever I don't want to talk to him he will call my parents and even my sisters.  I think just don't give up and just be there for her. And be honest and tell her everything.  

I agree with you. LDR is really hard.  I think my husband also has the insecurities that you have.  When he visited me in the Philippines it's his first time to be on airplane.  He also have difficulties with money, I think he promised me 3 dates and keeps postponing But he did it. He flew 9/11 because that's the cheapest that he can get.  I believed that Filipinas are very understanding, you just need to tell her everything so that she knows what to expect. that's my husband did.  He told me how much money he can bring and we worked with that.. You don't need to spend a lot of money during your visit, you can ask her if you can stay in their place instead of hotel.  When my husband visited he stayed at our house and I cooked for him so he didn't need to spend a lot.   Just make her understand and I'm sure she will help with financial if she can.

Well, my wife and I completed the process with my wife getting her US Citizenship this month. We plan to stay here to help others as those that helped us along our journey. It's called gratitude and maybe paying it forward?

If you are thinking that this relationship is real and want it to make it on the long run, the two of you need to be on the same page and work together for whatever you guys decide to do further on. Both should be saving money, getting some other part time job for extra income, reading up about immigration processes, costs, etc.

I'll echo what Oliversmom is saying.  It might even be time to be very frank with her about your financial state and tell her it might be years before you'll have the money together for immigration and visits and such.  
 
Another option that it sounds like you might need to consider in the future anyway is taking on a second job, perhaps weekends at a retail store, etc.  Realistically, besides trips, you are going to need thousands of dollars saved up for not only the immigration process, but things like new IDs, driving lessons, new household items.
 
I'd say in the 6 years or so we've known each other and moving countries twice, immigration, flights, and general LDR has cost us maybe $25k.  

Thanks for all the feedback guys. It's true. She has a different impression of the financial situation here in the states but I'm working to help her understand. I'm willing to take on everything financially with a plan. I feel like the most important part right now is saving to see her and building from that point forward. Thank you so much for the support Oliversmom and Arnel. I'm always happy to hear from others who've been in our situation but overcame. 

Hi I know how you feel, just like what she said LDR do work but at the same time it's hard. I came all the way from Philippines and now staying for good here in Houston Texas. Being in a long distance relationship is very challenging. And it's the airfare is quite expensive. I understand her frustration that you two decided to finally meet up but unfortunately due to some issues things didn't go as what you two has planned. I know that most of the people especially from the Philippines think that money is easy here in America, that's what I think before and now I learned the truth. You have to work hard to meet all the payments. I'm praying that you two will work this out. If it's really she's your destiny in the end, it will be 🙏

Hi.  I don't want to discourage you.  Long Distance relationships can and do work.   But it is hard.  I visited my husband three times.  He is here now and we have been married almost five years.  And I wouldn't change anything.  But it is difficult and financially it is difficult too.  The trips are expensive.  The process of getting a visa is expensive.  Plus you have to be making enough income to sponsor her if you decide to get married.  I worked two jobs in order to do that.  I only mention this because you say you are having financial difficulties.  Again, I am not trying to discourage you.  Just some things for you to think about as you decide what to do.  Also remember if she comes here you will have to be able to provide for her and get things such as medical insurance for her.  I wish you the best of luck and hope things work out for you.
