Hi Gina, I hope you don't mind my responding when you were addressing Rosie...

I read your comment and had to respond. If you were your own best friend and your best friend told you she was spending all of her money on a man with vague promises that he would make it back once he got a green card and papers from her, what would you advice be???? I cannot believe that you would let someone you care about do what you are doing. Wake UP!

Are you being foolish for spending all of your money on someone you think that you love? YES. Can you expect anyone to reply otherwise? NO.

Please take a deep breath and think carefully about what you are getting yourself into. being in love unfortunately is not a very good indicator of good judgement. what you think you love and what he truly is may be very very different things, and you will find out when you are broke and messed up.

Any relationship requires time and effort to get to know the other person for real. Spend the time, not your money!!
