It is tough for both even though there is love.

We live in different cities and proving the marriage might be a challenge but should be doable based on the fact she goes to school and I work etc.. we see each other almost every weekend.

For me at least it might come down to that path. Alhtough I have younger DACA brothers and this is the most difficult part for me. However I have an 85k salary and I can't loose that.
How are some of you guys getting such high paying jobs? I'm having trouble myself looking for a higher paying job than my current one. Any tips regarding resumes and cover letters? I'm a graphic designer.

I would never recommend anyone to take this route unless you're absolutely committed. If it's done for pure self-interest, you'd be practically selling out your morals and be no different than these heartless politicians.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Never judge what people have to go through to fix their problems.

I actually love the girl and she does as well. 100% agree with you, I don't like it being this way but ultimately we risk being separated if nothing happens. We don't want either. We are committed.

How long have you guys dated? And how did you break your status to her and after how long you guys started dating? Just want a general idea of what to expect since I am currently searching for my Wonder Woman too

That's great, then! Love will find its way.

As for me, my gf is a student on a visa so she has her own set of problems. It is what it is.

Interesting to hear your stories.
My BF and I just moved in together. Have common bills, lease, and will soon open a mutual bank account too. We will be considering marriage much sooner than we wanted just becuase of the DACA development. We have been together for 5 years, though.

Even if not DOMA was struck down and they could've gotten married in New York or something and proceeded from there. Nope need that special treatment despite the fact that McCain would rather go back into his bamboo cage than support same sex marriage.
But DACAers did the same thing. Once DACA was announced and in place, most dreamers vanished from pushing for real immigration reform, or even the actual dream act. And now here we are. Dreamers want special treatment too at the end of the day, but i dont blame us, its a bad situation all around. Still think minority groups should work together, even after one group gets 'relief'. But there's dreamers on this board that would prefer strong enforcement and wall legislation as long as they get their DACA. so yea

They're a couple though. And its marriage, not stealing or taking advantage of someone. Hardly selling out of any morals. Almost half the marriages in this country end up in divorce anyways. It's life. Besides if two people care about each other and dont want to be separated, doesn't seem like self-interest to me

It's been two years. She is a beautiful woman, and I have no clue how she is with me. She is really smart and we both have engineering careers, well she is still in school.

She is generous, loving and a really great human being. I honestly hid, but after Trump's win, I had a breakdown and I had to tell her.

My advice to you is to try to date people you meet at school, in an academic setting, a volunteering place. Do not be intimidated by good looks etc..

Some people really are genuine out there, my gf is kind of living proof.

It helps she is hispanic as well, first generation American, she wasn't even born here but she is a USC.
