Closure
 

Is it just me or does anyone else get really disappointed with the lack of closure from some of the wild postings by strange folk wanting to move to the US.

Did the pool cleaning business work out?
Were they turned away at the border?
Was the dog impounded?
Did whatever crazy scheme work?
Did they show us and become famous despite what Simon Cowell said about their singing?

Ooops, that last one slipped in. I need closure dammit!!

Re: Closure
 

Yes it sure does and I think its rude to be honest when some folk get all in a fluff or really need to hear from like minded folk, and what do they do absorb all the info or totally refuse to believe the truth and never come back to tell the tale for others to learn by......hope their plots all failed and their bottoms became invested in bumble bees
:lol:

Re: Closure
 

I was just thinking this the other day. Some of them get left on such hangers.

Re: Closure
 

I assumed they just never posted to acknowledge that people on here were right, and they were still stuck back in the UK.

You would think if they proved the knowledge base on here wrong, human nature being what it is, they would post to boast about it.

Re: Closure
 

Nope. Majority are fantasists.

Re: Closure
 

Do I? Do I ever!

Re: Closure

Re: Closure

Re: Closure
 

I wonder if that couple in Hawaii ever applied for AOS wasn't she wanting to do it without being responsible for him financially?

Re: Closure
 

Oh I was just wondering about them yesterday!

Re: Closure
 

Shhh.. they are still active on the forums.

Re: Closure
 

Of course this is the greatest example of closure:

Re: Closure
 

yep they lived happily ever after ;)

Re: Closure
 

and where do all the people who have been active on here get off on just leaving. You could at least tell us why you're not coming here anymore.

Someone also just moved here on hubby's L and then he was made redundant just after they arrived, what happened?:curse:

Re: Closure
 

Yeah!

Re: Closure
 

Yes its only polite I mean are they alive or dead!
I know when my buddy NuShooz left she had the decency to make a thread out of it.
Look at Englishtart she was all gob and then gone.......(still got your number girl if you read this lol.)

Rude Rude Rude :frown:

Re: Closure
 

Thats who I was thinking of too:lol:

Re: Closure
 

They gave her a Concierge title it went to her head was just to much and PUFFFFFF!! GONE :lol:

Re: Closure
 

We could hold a BE seance :unsure:

Re: Closure
 

Well thats debatable a few can stay dead and buried I would even give them a shovel :lol:

Re: Closure
 

tut tut.. if you cite it, you have to bump it. :D

Re: Closure
 

I was re-reading it last night, it's still gripping :lol:

I didn't want to get into trouble for bumping it though.

Re: Closure
 

I think I made up that rule, so you have my protections.

Re: Closure
 

I feel a trepidation...I think someone will see it on this thread and add to it.

Re: Closure
 

It's a closed thread, though.

For those of us, like me, who never saw that thread and don't want to read 51 pages of it...is there a CliffNotes version?

Re: Closure
 

No, no there is not. You can not fully appreciate the chaine maile story without reading every post. Pay attention to the dates.

hmm, good point about it being closed now.. that happens automatically. Is it worth ressurecting?

Re: Closure
 

You can't bump it 'cos some silly ares has closed it:confused:

Re: Closure
 

Oh I didn't notice it was closed.

Just start and it will draw you in :lol:

Re: Closure
 

I need to work, please give me a brief summary

You will miss out on Guinevere's unique literary style that way.

Re: Closure
 

Well, lucky it's spring break at the uni and there's sod all for me to do today! I'm on page 4 now, it's already getting exciting!

Re: Closure

Re: Closure
 

This reminds me of the guy who was wanting to visit the US and I *think* was trying to find info on the VWP. Then, sort of by accident, he discovered he was already a citizen!:lol: Can't remember the poster though...:(

Re: Closure
 

well thanks for that - I must be one of a very small group of long time members of this site who could never be arsed to actually read that thread, although I feel like I picked up the gist of it from the numerous references to it on other threads.

Re: Closure
 

Try looking for the ending to these stories for the last 14 years. I'm wondering about the guy who brought over his Austrian fiancee who left the US before marrying him to go home and then decided once she was in Austria that she wanted to come back to the US and he had to go the K-1 route again.

And Joe Blow from Canada (it was a girl btw) who came to the US for one guy and feel in love with his brother instead. Wonder how that worked out.

Maybe I need to write a book :thumbsup:

And then there is Ian the SP. A canuck of many passports who is educated and incorrigible and a real SP at times. Wonder how he got Shelia to put up with him for 14 years????????

Re: Closure
 

(I've never read the whole thing either)

Re: Closure
 

The most interesting couple we had on the marriage-based visa forums has to go to the female turned male married to a female couple. They married after her surgurcial correction. She was Canadian; had been married while a female and had children of her own. The second marriage worked beautiful apparently and he was able to get a green card and later then adopted her grandchildren.

Should look about for that story.

Re: Closure
 

I'd read it!
