I don't want to yell, tonight I want to cry!

I just got home from the cinema where I watched Sex and the City 2 by myself. First of all, the movie sucked. The only thing worth watching was what the women were wearing!

One of the trailers was for a movie called Going the Distance with Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. They are in a long distance relationship, and I actually started crying watching the trailer! Seeing them on skype and texting and calling and missing each other so much made me think, oh yeah, that’s me too!

Then in the movie, the women were in Abu Dhabi, and at their hotel they had a butler. Carrie can’t sleep late at night because of jet lag, so the butler makes her warm milk with cinnamon, “just as my wife likes it” so Carrie apologizes for keeping him working so late, and says to say sorry to his wife from her, but he explains that his wife is in India, and he is only in Abu Dhabi to work. He says he goes home to see her when he gets his break every three months “if I can afford the airfare”. Carrie says something about how horrible it must be to spend all that time apart, and the man replies “Time does not matter, because when we are together it is wonderful” Well, cue the waterworks, as I start to think about my husband in Nigeria, and how true that is.

I don’t like going to movies alone anymore. I used to love it, but now after a year and a half visiting him and oh-so-many-movies together, it just doesn’t feel the same.

We've already been apart for nearly 2 years...I am desperately hoping and praying that we're only apart for 1 more. Even the thought of that kills me. And if it's longer? Accra has 80% of cases done in 18 months. Sigh....

i feel your pain, bob's wife. my husband and i have been apart for 7 years! (well, we've been married for almost 2 years). i blame myself for stalling so much, and being lazy with paperwork. i do hope you two get together soon, it does hurt to watch movies alone. i love watching movies whenever my husband's with me, it's just a whole different level of fulfillment.

I want to scream, yell and slap that IO that was so rude and rejected us. I dont have a violent personality but she pushes me to be one LOL.

I am basically an emotional basketcase. It will be 8 years this christmas that we met and we have been married for 2 years this August. I dont go anywhere just go where I have to go and to my mothers and thats it because everything I do I have to do alone dont care to go anywhere. I dont feel like socializing, silly I know. We talk everyday but I am so sick of the computer thing but at the same time thankful we got some means to communicate. Like all of us here we have been pushed the perverbial brink but manage to still hang in there. I have become a huge ball of frustrated emotions and cry basically over anything. I cant believe the time that has passed and we are still seeing each other through a monitor. Never did I think in a million years it would take this long and be this hard. Fortunately, our love has only gotten stronger and so is our determination but the loneliness is so great that its very hard to bare. we are just hanging on to the hope that this will be over with soon.

Honestly guys, CIC has drained all my emotions .... I have nothing left to cry or think of ..... I am just bleh about the process for now and whenever they decide to open back my file and say something to me ... I will work with them ... it's too much to deal with ....

Can't wait to see my hubby in 2 weeks :)))))))

Are any of you in the Toronto area? I live in Mississauga and don't have a job yet. My sweetie works 60 hours per week on top of trying to get his Certificate in Management Accounting. I remember going to see The Proposal (the plot... a Canadian girl tries to marry her assistant to stay in the US) by myself last year when I was still just a visitor.

Anyway, anybody in the area want some face to face social time, let me know. We certainly have a lot in common to talk about!

I have nothing to ARGH about (yet) as today we got the news that my wife and step daughter will accompany me to Canada on a 6 month TRV. Once there we will begin our PR process.

Our hearts go out to those with less fortunate circumstances, just the though of us possibly being apart for even a few months was unbearable!

We will be living quite close to the GTA, London Ontario. I would like to propose that on November 11, 2010 (Remembrance Day) all who are in Canada from these forums meet up in front of the CN Tower at 11:11AM in support of our "battles".

All the best!

Doug, Hellen, and Kelly

I agree that I really have nothing to complain about in listening to all the sad stories! We are a US/CAN couple and I'm going up there on a "VISIT" (wink wink) in about a week so I know how lucky and blessed I am.. hugs and blessings on everyone who is struggling.

I'll be right in the heart of the T Dot! I also don't look forward to finding employment.. my field is saturated in Ontario so I'm anticipating getting with a temp agency after I'm approved and hoping for the best.
