I am married to a Filipina since 12-2001. She became a citizen 2 days before our last anniversary last Dec. We met as pen pals. We used to write each other with pen and paper for a year and then I got onto webtv and we emailed 5 days a week. She from her job. We had a few phone calls after this. A year or so after emailing is when any fires of love kindled. The words 'I love you' spit out of my mouth and I was in shock and she was quiet. The next day she left the same message on my answering machine. A year after that I took a trip to visit her on her birthday in Manila. 7 days later we got engaged. That happened because she took all my defenses down about marriage. I decided that I probably wasn't going to get married even though I was lonely. This was April '01 and Dec '01 we got married there.
ResponderEliminarI did not have to wear a tie like we usually do here in the U.S. Instead I wore a Barong and I actually liked it! I hate the suit and tie so this Barong worked out great for me.
My mother n law was worried about my wife being Catholic and I am protestant. I calmed her fears down on that and we are good.
Wife entered the U.S. 9 months later on a spouse visa via the K3 visa.
I could go on but I don't want to take up alot of space. I can explain more if there is interest.
