PhilippinesJeally
Are you in the thrall of the green eyed monster? wacko.gif

Yesterday we went to an Easter party, we were invited by afriend. My husband's ex gf was there. I was busy looking after my daughter but then i saw Him with the ex laughing and looks like they were having fun. I felt like i was out of that place had only 1 person i was talking to and that was his niece. He just left me inside the house knowing that i was alone and i dunno those people (that was my thought). Anyways, i just kept quite. Here comes the dinner, this time my husband was inside the house and asked me if am fined and i said YES I AM. He tried to gave me Food but i said NO THANKS AM FINE. ( the truth?i was soo hungry headbonk.gif ). Party was done and we were on our way back home. I never talked to him which was stranged for him. When we got back home, He asked me again if am ok and this time i answered him YOU KNOW THAT WHEN AM QUITE THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME. So i talked to him about it and silly me i cried a lot like a baby. laughing.gif I said AM JEALOUS. tongue.gif I know i had no reason to be jealous but i dunno i just felt bad. But anyways i got a big hug and lots of kisses biggrin.gif from him and a very a polite explanation. offtopic45vn.gif

Hello everyone. My fiancee was told she needs to take some kind of class about life in the United States before she goes to her interview or she wont get her visa. Can someone tell me more about this, where she needs to go and the cost? We have our interview April 29th so we want to get everything complete soon as possible. Does anyone else have a interview date of April 29th in Manila?


Hello Chris, please tell shasha to contact me mrs_sharon_schmidt@yahoo.com or send text message here is my roaming number 09216803707. I am willing to help her regarding the process. I think she's in my friendster friends list.

I know we would need a separate notarized I-134 affidavit of support for me and each of my kids. My question is, would we need a separate supporting documents for each of the three I-134? or would one copy of form 1040, one copy of certificate of employment, W2s, bank statements be enough to cover all three I-134?

Any ideas/inputs would be greatly appreciated.
