Re: Getting married
hello
What age are you ? You ned your head examined. I say to you and I say
again DO NOT associate with this person are you plain blone STUPID or
what!! You will have a life of misery if you shack up with a drunk (
pardon my use of this language). Pay need to the warnings expressed
herein. I have seen this in the court system and I tell you seldom do
these relationships work out. You will be made a fool of and robbed
and most likely end up in ruins.
Please have some common sense and dump this loser and associate with a
beter class of person. And please do not come sobbing back to me later
when you are up to your knees in a mess and pregnant.
the world is full of un-wise individuals but I would like to help you
now so please take my advice.

Well, being young and as good looking as I am (ha ha), I've been asked almost every time that I crossed the border (well, BEFORE the AOS process that is) whether I had a boyfriend that I was going to visit, etc. I'm guessing its not terribly unusual for Canadians to cross and just stay in the US though (and probably think nothing of it)...
I have a feeling that if Iw ould have said I had a boyfriend when I crossed on my J1 they would have turned me around and sent me packing...

Well that would at least explain why I was never asked if I had a girlfriend....

I participated in the J1 work and travel USA program 3 times in 3 different years, so this would be my 4th time that i travel there but this time with a different purpose (my internship)
The problem comes now because the first time that i traveled i met my boyfriend, he is an american citizen and last year he got arrested for driving under influence for a second time but in this time he got his license taken away for one year and he had to go to jail for 5 days. He came to peru after that and he didn´t work for almost one year while he was here with me.
This year he came to my country again making his third trip here in 3. After he left just in this last august he start feeling bad and one year and half later he had a car accident for the same reason: driving under influence, so he might have to go to jail for a longer time. I know what he is doing is not good but when i am with him he is a different person and i love him so much, i don´t really care, i just want him to do better with my help.
He is very sorry and we plan that when i travel to usa he is going to meet me and we are going to live together and start a new life, he would be working hard with two jobs and follow an alcoholic treatment and after 5 months we plan to get married and then ask for my residence.
My question is if after i marry him would i be able to get my american residence??? Or maybe it gets more difficult because he was on jail 3 times for the same reason, Does jail make things really bad???
I would really appreciate an anwser.
