How true that is Amikety... I sent mine away yesterday only to be on the phone with my husband saying did we forget this or that.. or was this too much or not enough.. At least the good thing is that is sent and I can join the waiting game with all of you still waiting to be re-united with your partners!

Re: Love or Opportunity?

We should rename this thread "Ladies coffee social."

I wish my husband showed interest in doing the paperwork. He thinks I should do it for him.

Re: Love or Opportunity?

Am I in the Ladies Coffee Social or the Lazy Husband Club?

Coffee social sounds much better. I make awesome tea biscuits.

This site really needs a social section. We get to know each other through posting and helping. Would be nice to expand on that.

I'm going to send a note to moderator to see how I can revise the thread name. Like the idea Amikety. :)

lol this makes me laugh (the way you ironically answered) and at the same time mad what visahunter says here, even though i didnt read his/her post. If really a person needs help to get away of a miserable life in their country and wants to come to canada to make a better living, its NEVER ok to lie to someone or use that person! Then at least be honest and maybe there is really someone that wants to help you out, but dont play a game and lie in loving that person, its just aweful. Besides that, you never have a guarantee that things in an other country work out better for you. Cant believe a person is even thinking the way visahuter does.....

I was sponsored by my husband and the only reason i came here to live for is for him and i have a great husband. For him im willing to start all new and i dont know what i still have to face here. Coming here alone just to live here, i wouldnt have had enough motivation or reason, even if i would look for a better life somewhere else, i would never be able to use anyone or play the role of a loving partner just for that, just goes totally against me and i would have tried to find another way without going against the law or playing with peoples emotions. I know there is people that have hard lifes where they live, especially if theres a war going on, i know theres tough situations where you would do anything to get out of it, still....playing with peoples emotions doesnt make you a good person, at least be honest with all, maybe you fall in love for real then and then you have even 2 reasons for coming to Canada.
Congratulations! Welcome to Canada Tipha!

We've been lucky that work has kept us both busy, very busy so a lot of time gets ate up there. I also make a point of not missing the gym which kills time and along with work means I'm so tired I fall right asleep without time to lay there and feel lonely.

We also text each other frequently during the workday, though we both know it may take a while to get an answer if the other is busy. And we talk on the phone at least once a day as well with messages on Yahoo messenger when we're both home. It keeps the sense of togetherness there. Try things like putting the same movie on and messaging as you watch it :)

Also research anything you might need to know for or after the move, like moving companies if your taking a lot of stuff, or as I'll be doing after the gym today checking what supplement I use are available in Canada, I know a couple are against the law there, so I'm checking everything and looking for alternatives. Stuff like that makes you feel like your doing something, not just sitting waiting :)
Nice JimM. Always nice to get perspectives from both sides of the male vs female spectrum.

Actually it was a good experience, i had no waiting line and all took like maybe 15 min....I showed my passport and COPR at the border control, got directed to the immigration desk behind it, had to sign my COPR, no questions were ask, except the nice lady there asked me if the plane was full lol cause she wanted to know how much work she still gets :p but it was a slow day and in my plane there were still seats empty, got my "welcome to canada" and info package and then went to get my baggage. 5 min later i was in the arms of my husband!!!! :)
