So sometimes we get off topic in a thread - I'm a HUGE offender - so I thought that I would make a thread just for those replies and discussions that don't belong anywhere else.

Since you're married, I doubt you'll have to worry about immigration issues, right? It shouldn't be a prob anymore, I would think. You don't look Middle Eastern to me, lol.......
Funnily enough, if the US decided to be jerkfaces, they could still deport me even though James and I are married. .... I know, right??
Everytime I had to go through customs to get to the US I was detained for an interview. It was annoying. I mean.. I'm a little girl who just wants to go see her bf. I'm not a bloody terrorist or anything. MAN! I tell ya. They even checked out my bags at one point - rifling through my underwear and lingerie.... ARGH.
Anywho.
December this year marks 5 years ago that James got up the courage to talk to me. We met on an MMO (Final Fantasy XI) in an exp party (where you party with other characters to kill monsters to gain experience points in case you didn't know what that was... dunno how many MMOers we have here..) and anyway, I complimented him on his job cause he was a helluva player.
We added eachother to our friendslist. but he didnt talk to me right away.
From what he says, he saw a picture of me that I had posted on a gamer website where you can post pics of yourself so people know what other gamers look like. He said it was love at first sight and knew he had to talk to me, but he thought that I was out of his league. He said he thought I was so beautiful it made him nervous. XD
Anyway, he finally did talk to me and we became fast friends. (He told me that I was finer than frog's hair split two ways.) Who says that, right??? Ha, it was so charming. He had all sorts of silver-tongued things to say to me back then. heh.
After a few months of talking back and forth, we were out killing some monsters one night and I cornered him - asking him if he liked me. He said that he did. I was pretty bold because I wasn't face to face with him. heehee BUT he had been dropping HUGE hints that he did like me... he just hadn't told me point blank.
I sent him a few pictures of myself, and he said he'd reciprocate. (Haha, I told him once before I knew what he looked like that I would prefer it if he wasn't handsome because if he was, I was going to be in trouble... I'm a little shallow, and I was back then too, so if he wasn't good looking, it would have been easier for me to turn him down XD XD XD)
Back then he didn't have a computer or any way to get pictures on the internet for me to see, so he took some and sent them to me. He also sent me some older ones cause he had them. One of which made my brain melt. I'll have to get it from my mom and post it... It was at his graduation when he was dressed in his sailor suit (cause he was in the navy for a while) and omg. ....../drool...
AHEM. Sorry.
So, it turns out that he was more than handsome, and I was in some serious trouble. lol Why serious trouble, you ask? WELL... I had a boyfriend. Now, mind you, things had been on the rocks for the last few months before I had even MET James... and my bf and I were quickly heading towards Splitsville. Shortly after I received James' pictures my bf and I decided to break up. Actually, I dumped him because he was a jerk, but that's a story for another day.
After about 6 months of correspondence, and once I was free of the jerk bf, James and I decided to meet. I spent a month or so down here with him (at my mom's insistence because 'you can't know someone if you're only with them for a couple weeks' apparently.) James and I got along famously and when it was time for me to go back home to Canada, it was SO hard. I couldn't handle it back home for more than a couple months before I had to be with him again or I felt like I was going to die.
There's lots more to the story, but for now, we'll say: the rest was history.
I hope it's not too confusing. I've told the story so many times that I'm sure I leave stuff out...
Anyway, this is us the day after we met:
You can't see it, but my hair was blue. XD

Yeah, I wish I knew about you and James' love story, avy! I've heard about dyzz and her hubby, but not you and yours... *wants to hear it*
