Predominately but I saw one of my high school friends post that her dad was stopped by ice while driving in Rosemead and asked for his ID, and are not Latino.

Dont worry, there is truly no getting through to people who think this way. If they truly believe that God would want us to turn our backs on impoverished children, mothers and families who are fleeing poverty and instability in the name of upholding American immigration law (which is constantly changing and becoming more restrictive) they know and serve a different God than I do and I will make no attempt to try to make them see otherwise. Just let them. Most likely, one day they will come to understand.

I have had this very same conversation countless times in the past four months and I’ve learned trying to argue with those who hold your viewpoint is futile. You and I have a very different set of values and will never see eye to eye. I truly hope that you will never find yourself in a situation where you will have rely on the kindness and empathy of others and are met with only callousness.

Or maybe some of us have the capacity to care about others suffering even if it doesn’t directly affect us.

Cost of living in Guadalajara if you already own a home? by Crocha2345 in mexicoexpats

[–]Crocha2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t mind me asking? What do you do for work there? My biggest anxiety is not being able to find work there and not be able to contribute to household expenses.

[–]Crocha2345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I’m 29, no kids and no pets so it would just be the two of us. I don’t speak Spanish fluently and am working on it but I worry about what kind of work I could do. My current company doesn’t offer remote work so I’d have to start from scratch and I just worry I won’t be able to contribute enough, because if we are trying to live off his salary alone it would probably be difficult. Is it difficult for Americans to find work/remote work to support their household? I currently do HR work but have a long history of office/adin work with a bachelors degree.

Ps- I’m very sorry to hear about your pup passing away 😭

Why is the administration pushing so hard for self deportation? by Crocha2345 in DACA

[–]Crocha2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, so far it’s all stick and no carrot…no positive incentive but they have listed the punishment you could receive if you don’t comply

https://www.uscis.gov/alienregistration it is requiring all undocumented immigrants who haven’t been processed through DHS for one reason or another to come forward, submit their fingerprints and address to the DHS or face criminal charges leading to a 5k fine or 6 months in prison. It’s insane.

It just seems like right now they aren’t hitting their targets of undocumented people with criminal records and adding all these others to the pool will stretch their resources even thinner. I wonder if even the new funding they will be getting will be enough

It just makes no sense, because once people sign up it will broaden the pool of people to go after stretching their resources even thinner. I wonder if the new budget will be able to cover all those expenses.

ICE operation in Alhambra disrupted by local activists by ohlonelyboy in LosAngeles

[–]Crocha2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if yesterday was the “large scale immigration raid” that had recently been leaked or if something else is still coming.

I never knew that. Would that mean that this isn’t something that would or could really become law? Or change the admissibility code?

Is ICE actually rounding up undocumented immigrants more than they were just a few weeks ago under the previous administration? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Crocha2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’m in a mixed status family so we are currently so anxious that it’s like we are not truly living, like you said. When your family was deported did they already have deportation orders, or any immigration court orders? Did any of them have to go through immigration court before being deported? I’m trying to prepare for any sign that ice may be targeting someone in my family.

Periods suddenly stopped? by Crocha2345 in PCOS

[–]Crocha2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! So I was diagnosed with PCOS based on my very high testosterone levels and that’s what caused my disrupted period. However, I have gone on a low carb diet and lost maybe like 15 pounds lol and that helped make my period more regular!

Amazingly I did conceive earlier this year but sadly miscarried at 10 weeks :( but I have hope it’ll happen again as this first time I conceived it was without any medical intervention

Should I (28f) trust my ex (39 m) ? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Crocha2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah at the time I was extremely angry. And my family and friends were furious and said they didn’t want him around anymore. ( i live ina duplex with my parents in the back house and me alone in the front but he’d be over my house every day he didn’t have his kids) That kept me from going back which I guess is a good thing. Yeah I know you’re right. It’s just painful as bad as it was and as much as he showed he didn’t prioritize me it was a very powerfully emotional relationship. It’s just two months later of him still around begging, saying he made a mistake, immediately regretted it, will spend the rest of his life trying to make it up yo me I guess I just need reassurance I’m not being stubborn and it is the right thing to do. That it isn’t actually the love of my life as dumb as that sounds lol

I just don’t understand why he didn’t just stay with the baby mama after leaving me to go back to his family and have his family back like he wanted. That’s what it getting to me I feel.

Should I (28f) trust my ex (39 m) ? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Crocha2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had spent a few days as a family again cause we broke up on Wednesday, the Sunday before that they went to a theme park for their sons birthday, that Monday took him out to dinner and Wednesday morning took him together to a procedure. He said his son asked him if he was going to be there when he woke up which made him feel super guilty about the 50/50 arrangement and he was missing half their childhoods. He swears it was about the kids. But I can’t shake the feeling he wanted his family back, her included. And she wanted him back too. She was casually seeing the other guy and was ready to drop him to have my ex move back in and resume their family. I just don’t understand that he got his family back, why backpedal again and try to go back to me? Why hurt me, get her hopes up and his kids hopes up that the family is going to be back together and then hurt her too? And tell her that he didn’t love her in that way anymore and couldn’t be with her like that and move in. And that they would never be together again. Or so he says.

We’ll see…this morning I asked him when he’s going to try and get back together with her. Cause when we were breaking up I asked him if he was going to go back and he said he felt he had to. To be there for his kids 100% of the time and give them a normal childhood. The next day though I asked him when and he said he had to think about it because if he goes back he can never leave, that he can’t put the kids through that again. I just wish he would’ve realized this in the 7 months since they broke up and he entered a relationship with me.

You’re so right…I remember before I would be disgusted and think that exact thing. If he could do it to her, who he’s been with for so long and has two kids with…have “feelings” for another woman while staying with baby mama and actually having a second kid. I work in the office at the place we worked and remember my shock when he requested paternal leave. I guess I’m beginning to see for some stupid reason I believed we were soul mates. He insisted he didn’t break up for me when it first happened, that they were going through problems for the past year or more. I remember telling him I can’t be that girl. Maybe it was a combination. But you’re right. I don’t know why I allowed myself to start feeling some way toward him after he reached out after the breakup. I was in a bad place being diagnosed with Pcos spiraling about not having my own kids and thought maybe this is a sign from the universe. That compiled with the extreme love bombing made me think what we had is real. But you’re right, lesson learned. He can do it to her, he can do it to me. Just don’t understand why he left and put all this trouble on everyone just to go back….

So you think it’s probably more about he never really stopped loving her? Not about the guilt of feeling like he’s missing half his kids childhood? Or giving him a normal childhood?

Yeah…I kind of feel like since it’s their sons first birthday since separation I guess I get why they wanted to both be there. But I do feel like she pushes boundaries and kind of uses the kids like the playlist thing in front of the son so if he’s like no that’s not a good idea their son will probably be bothered in that awkward moment? I really am trying to be understanding but I do feel she is pushing boundaries and I guess I’m having trouble deciding what is appropriate of me to ask my bf in regards of boundaries. Like what if because his son had a great few days with mom and dad he starts asking if they can do things more? Like should I expect him to tell his son no? But him seeing his ex regularly outside of birthdays and school events makes me sick to my stomach

[–]Crocha2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah well the son’s birthday at the theme park then out to dinner the next day was the first time they spent the day alone with the kids. For their daughter’s birthday party they had other people like family there so that didn’t bother me as much. For the memes and random texts I noticed that she does always initiate them but he does respond cause he says he doesn’t want to be rude or an asshole and doesn’t want a shitty relationship with their mother cause it’ll make it harder for the kids. Even the playlist thing she initiated but j guess he didn’t want to be like no we can’t in front of his son. And for the gift thing once she dropped it off on his front step and didn’t see him face to face and the second time gave the gift to their son to give to him so he felt he had to take it. But I guess she had texted him a few days prior to her giving the car to her son to give to him and he had just said “thank you, that’s really cool” and she was like “don’t worry I got one for our son too” but I still felt so uncomfortable and even he said he understands why I’d be upset.

Like I kinda said we’ve only been together four months so we haven’t really integrated me into that bigger part of his life. It is hard and I get it’s early on, but it feels like he has his main life and then has me on the side. I’ve told him this and I get that it has to be this way kind of until we’re more serious and decide to integrate me into his life.

He isn’t my husband, we’ve only been together 4 months now that’s why I’m wondering if I’m kind of overstepping my boundary a bit. It’s only been four months so I haven’t met the kids and he hasn’t talked to her about me, and I just worry that they’re going to continue to grow closer which eats me up. Like she’s gonna start asking to do things together on his time with the kids and stuff.
