I do wish to stay, I can’t go back to my home country with my baby girl cause we’ll both struggle. Everything is very expensive. A bottle of formula is $80. I’m already getting assistance with food stamps and such her, which I am very grateful for. We wouldn’t be eating many days without it. I have family both here and there, but I can’t depend on them. I just want my baby to have a better life than I did and I thought being here would make that happen. Yes, I know he won’t want us around. And that’s fine. I’m not using anyone for a greencard or residency. I will figure it out.

No problem. If I do decide to stay I’ll just have to get accustomed to the culture here. The men here thinks very differently from my home. They are very mature over here.

No. I wasn’t showing. I came to the US in 2021 and stayed until I had my baby, I went back home in April of 2022 and came back in December of 2022.

Thank you for this. I understand fully now. America’s culture and my home country culture are totally different.

I was pregnant when I came to visit and went for a checkup and was told I can’t travel as it was a huge risk for my pregnancy. She was born here. I’m in the process of getting an extension on my visa.

It isn’t up as yet.

100% agree with you. Thank you, you’re right.

He’s in my home country. Yes, I have contact with him. There’s not much he can do for her because he’s unemployed. I have full custody of her. She’s currently with me. Thank you for your advice.

Yes, she’s a US citizen.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I am trying to figure this out on my own as I also have a 1 year old daughter

We met on a dating site. I migrated because I wanted a better life. No, I’m on a tourist visa. I am currently staying with a family member, but they’ve been really difficult to live it. I am not living with him. I just go for a week or few days and come to my family members house.

We’ve been dating for over 6 months. Here’s a little backstory on me. I have migrated to the US in December. He knows my situation and what I’m going through right now and how difficult it has been for me and my mental health . I’ve asked if he could just accommodate me for awhile until I can figure out my way moving forward and as soon as I get a job and have enough savings to pay for an apartment I’ll be out of his space. My partner is very big on his peace and personal space, so when I asked him his initial response was “No, because if someone is going to stay with him, he needs someone who is going to be on track with what they want in life and not just go with the flow”. He also said, “it’s not because I don’t love or care for you it’s because I want what’s best for you.” I just feel as if though he’s being nonchalant towards the situation and inconsiderate. Any suggestions.
