lassetter Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Just want to thank all the board members and moderators! You have helped me tremendously. Song and I leave for the USA tomorrow! This is my sixth time to Nanning!------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What I have written below is a bit mawkish, but here goes! I feel overwhelmed. My SO is giving up a great deal to go with me to the USA. She leaves behind her aging mother, three sisters, many friends, and a good job. She has worked very hard on her English. She is a wonderful person. I feel a great responsibility to her. More than anything, I want her to be happy. Rupert Link to comment

The great benifit you will get when you try to make them happy is them giving you the same respect--Works kinda nice that way. Link to comment

I remember my first trip to China, it may be the same for her. The good part is that she has her cousins and Auntie & Uncle living in SF. We will send money back on a regular basis as heris retired.

kfman Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Special spouses will do special things. It takes sacrifices on both sides I believe. She/ he will leave his native country, friends, job, etc... but us/we have to show extreme patience, teach different ways, adapt to different ideas and philosophies... All for love.. great isnt it?
