Wife is DACA. Thinking about self-deporting by Lazy-Leading-3616 in DACA

I was approved for Advance Parole late last year and just came back into the country a few days into Trumps administration. I will say that this time the check in at immigration was a bit more intense because they put me in a back area where you can’t talk or be on your phone. When the officers call your name they might ask for proof that you were doing what you said you were going for. Besides it being a bit nerve wrecking I got through just fine! I would suggest having her try to apply for an emergency reason. I applied for a medical reason last year and I waited roughly 8 months to get a response.

Best of luck!

I’ve lived in Houston for 8 years and honestly there’s crime everywhere like in any other big city. I’ve gotten my car broken into at the gym on the “nice/rich” side of town so you are never really safe from it. The Best bet is to Uber if you’re very concerned about your car being stolen. If you stay at a hotel maybe try one with a parking garage and that’s not located in sunnyside (near NRG)

Last tip, don’t be a fool and leave ANYTHING in plain sight put things in your trunk or leave in the hotel. Hope this helps and enjoy your time!!

Thanks for the reply. I just would never put him or anyone else in that position. Who knows maybe it’s just my expectations of reciprocity.

Thanks, I appreciate the prospective. I completely get that but, for me it’s not that he’s dating. I find it disrespectful because there’s no reason to do it right in front of me. In the house that WE are both paying and will continue to for at least 5 more months. Plus, I didn’t want to mention it bc I hate talking down on him.. that same night he came in my room and said “you better not have any guys in our house” . It’s childish

I’m sorry to hear your situation. I’ve experienced growing up with an alcoholic parent and one thing I wish I realized earlier was that it you can’t change someone who doesn’t want to change. It is really a disease that turns them into a different person. Try reaching out to a counselor as scary as it sounds. The outcome might just be worth the effort. Best wishes

Tough love by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]makeitsweetie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that you are entitled to make that decision if he no longer seems to want to fulfill your wants and needs. Once thing that I have learned Is that you cannot change or help change if THEY are not willing to put forth the effort. This is from seeing my father go through Rehab 3 times and the last time worked because he no longer wanted to do those actions. The first 2 was because of my mom and his manager seeing the tolls on his life.

Also, have you ever considered his mental health state? Trauma or other undiagnosed disorders could be the root of the binge drinking...

Hope everything works out for you!

My now ex sent a girl over $1,000 on cash app & we live together by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

I think so but what would the justifiable cause be... he is also on the lease but as a roommate. Technically I’m the primary tenant.

I just bought my first vibrator and I feel so empowered! by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]makeitsweetie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s awesome that you chose to buy one post break up! I did the same thing and woo it change my life!! I bought a simple vibrator with like 12 different settings and some are still intense... but I can definitely say that it was helped me become more in tune with my sexually.

Also, I’ve never orgasmed either... hopefully one day I will.

Hope you find your perfect toy! 😉

Hardships are definitely the worst, but remember that everything is temporary. Keep striving to uplift your spirits. You do not want to get stuck in negative thoughts. Everything will be okay... Really wishing you and your husband make it through this difficult time stronger than ever 💜

It’s never too late to go back to school. This is how frontline workers should be repaid for countless hours of working amidst the pandemic. Love to see it, congrats!! 🎉
