They created a whole new website to be able to say F***?????!!!!!

you'd be surprised at some of the things eric has been saying over there

Actually, I think most of the MENA forum on VJ would be quite surprised to see some of YOUR comments about them on that other forum. It's such a shame to see you pretending to be so friendly with the women here then laughing at them on another forum.

Thanks for saying it Kelz! LOL

It is funny how friendly some people can be and then speak a totally different song some place else. Not all but many!

I don't think Expats has enough members! We should all join so you can have heated arugments in the most colorful language without all the symbols %&%$@(@! Eric would have nothing on us!

As Noura said...Masha'Allah, Insha'Allah! Woohoo! Hope that meets the guidelines for usage.

Does anyone know what time the Muslim Olymics start?

Geez...

It's quite interesting. You better stop saying Masha'Allah and Insha'Allah or your best bud charles! will go say how annoying it is to another forum.

what did i miss?

you missed nothing you were right there in the big middle of all of it

maybe i need to read things again.

These should refresh your memory.

ohh its not just the baby talk, its the fact that for some odd reason mejnoona and katkoot (come on now we know exactly who you are) sit on VJ pretending to be everyones buddy but then start threads in expat just completely TRASHING people..DONT YOU HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO???

You left out a few names.

can you post that link here so we can see whats going on ?

You might not want to look. Your "friend" targeted you as well saying you "deprogrammed" your husband.

If a person said something like that, then they wouldnt be a "friend" and 2nd my husband left islam before ever meeting me... people will always talk, but only friends got the facts straight!

I agree. And if your husband is happy with his choice, that is all that really matters.

Which one?

That one where they mock the Muslimahs in this forum, call the babies ugly, and otherwise degrade their "friends".

It's quiet here today

Too quiet!

It's because everyone is on that other forum.

Like you are so well known that people would point on the streets at you (if your husband posted something on a anonymous(sp?) website).

I don't tell me friends or my family - and here really, the other women can relate.

OMG! I would be so embarrassed if my husband posted about any of my habits that he found distasteful on a forum.

My point is not that someone might recognize me on the streets. For me, the thought of my husband commenting or complaining about my hygiene or personal habits to people on a forum is devastating. Whether I found out what he said or not is not what would even matter. Just the thought of my husband saying such things about me is upsetting.

Well, since you are not my husband, you need not concern yourself about it.

I apologize, I was only sharing my thoughts.

I apologize also. However, this is really an anonymous forum. The stresses of being responsible for EVERYTHING related to your spouse adjusting and not being able to speak to people close to you (in real life) can be overwhelming. The MENA crowd understand in some ways. We fight and disagree. But we all share a common experience and try to help each other also.

Too, too true. Furthermore, there might be something that you're experiencing that someone else went through, so it's a great way to learn how someone else dealt with an issue. We all need to vent about the issues that we experience. Moreover, being married to a foreigner is different than being married to another USC; where we might have a perspective about that person's attributes and upbringings. In the world of immigration, we're all getting our bearings - and some of us have been married and living with that person for a few years.

The ladies and few men that hang in this forum normally are very tolerant, respectful, and genuinely happy with their fiances/spouses, but on occasion, one might have a problem that goes beyond what they can deal with - so, they pose their questions or issues here. We all need to release our frustrations - and what better way than to a bunch of people whom you know and trust in cyberspace, rather than unleash the wrath upon your spouse where you might say something really wrong and hurtful.

My advice is if you don't want to read about issues with spouses, then you might just want to stick to the boards that deal specifically with your immigration issue.

Best of luck on your visa journey - hope you have an easy go of it!

Ok I think my point has been missed but that's ok. I totally agree that sharing experiences is a great way to learn and help others out but for me in the case of someone having body odor, I wouldn't think that would be something that needed colaboration to fix- I think a shower and some deodorant would do the trick. I am sorry that I disagree with sharing certain things on forums but that won't keep me from reading and sharing my opinion. I am not upset about others having opinions that differ from my own so I assume that we are all allowed to give our opinions about things. I would never stop reading something just because I don't agree- everyone is different.

How did the accounts get created under a very similar email address to the one he already has?

Kristen,

I think it says a lot and is very sweet that he came here to try to contact you.

I think you are running scared and need to talk with him...can't you see he is crying out for you? If he didn't love you wouldn't he just stop and let you go?

Don't you want a man that is willing to come find you and try to get you back????????? Or would you like it better if he just walked away and if you want him to just walk away, did you ever really love him at all?

Come on...give him a chance!!!

Deb

Seriously?

Thanks for your response- those are all very good, and helpful tips!

I really appreciate it.

The "r" rols a bit, like in Spanish.

Also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Fatiha

I hope this helps.

What kind of al-Fatiha is that? The Ph.D. kind, lol? It is missing 1-2:3, the last line is not a part of al-Fatiha, and ghayn sounds nothing like a rolling spanish R but rather like a French R, and the two are quite different- a French R is not a rolling R.

Ok so we are trying to modify our plans and are thinking of moving abroad for 4 or 5 months. Would that cause less of a problem with immigration? We were originally planning on one year but decided that 4 or 5 months will be fine. If anyone has any input I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Thank you very much. I think just in case we will make an infopass appointment just to be sure. Thanks for the info.

Hi,

My husband is planning a trip home but it will most likely be while his I-751 is pending. Is it possible to travel when his conditional greencard is expired and his I-751 is pending? Will he need to have his passport stamped by USCIS indicating that he has filed to remove conditions? What documentation is needed for him to travel if his GC is expired?

Thank you in advance.

Wow, what a mess. I'm going to have to rethink this after all. Thank you very much for your input, it's greatly appreciated.

Well we would probably come home after 6 months for a visit, especially if that is necessary. If his removal of conditions is in process do you know how long at a time you can ge out of the country? Thanks for your reply by the way.

Does anyone know for sure? Should I ask this somewhere else?

Hello-

My husband will be filing to remove conditions in January of 2009. We are thinking of moving to France for a year or two. We are planning on moving in the summer or fall of 2009. If my husband doesn't have his 10 year greencard by them is it possible to be out of the country while his case is being processed here? He has his two year greencard right now. If this current greencard expires while the removal of conditions is being processed and he is in France, will that be a problem?

Thank you

Kelly
