Second thought about our marriage

We have decided that it was best for me to move to IL and reunited with him last November. While I have already liquidize almost 70% of our earthly possessions including the business here, he hasn’t sent out the first set of migration paperwork yet!

There are three major steps of paperwork to file, and we couldn’t do the second set until the processing of the first set starts. Currently it takes an average of six to eighteen months to process all three sets of them. That mean there won’t be green card before that and there would be no work authorization for that long!

He has been gathering documents for the longest time!! In fact, he hasn’t done anything! Nearly four months later, he said he couldn’t find our marriage certificate and need to find a suitable envelope to mail the forms!!

Fed up is an understatement right now, more like is it worth leaving my comfort zone to live so far away from the support system that I have here? Would it be better to just end a meaningless marriage with such an irresponsible person?

    Leah, I know it’s tough but at least think over it carefully before you make any decision. It’s an important decision which will affect your life.

    I want you here with me. Of course I want you to think carefully. You are a part my life. Let me be the part that completes you……..

    I understand how u feel. I was not in the same situation as u but similar. Yes, sometimes u just feel like giving up the closest person in ur life. But hei, think about this, u have come this close to living with him in another country, after living separately for a few years. You are almost there, almost touching the finishing line, dont’ give up!!!

    And anyway, do keep in mind that u always have a comfort zone here. But for now u hav to explore somewhere else and broaden ur horizon.
