Unfortunately, you will need more than that. The US immigration laws are fairly
strict regarding who will be allowed to come, and who won't.

Generally, you will either have to have a desirable skill (which usually means a
college degree), or you will need a close relative (such as a parent or child)
already in the US, and a lot of patience.

Even if you do qualify, be prepared for a very long wait. There are so many other
people trying to immigrate to the US right now that for some family-based categories,
the wait exceeds twenty years.

So in other words it's mighty difficult and i guess the only way really is marriage if at all possible or sincere enough
