Dear Nanay,

I was ready to ask my girlfriend to marry me until she told me that she could not have children because of some medical condition.

Hi. I hope that you can give me an advice about my lovelife. By the way, I’m L.A., 20 years-old. Mayroon akong boyfriend, si Ariel.

Boto naman pareho ang family namin kasi kilala na namin ang isa’t isa. Actually, we live in the same place, walking distance lang ang layo.

Ang problema ko po ay yung isa kong Kuya. Magkabarkada po kasi sila ng boyfriend ko kaya alam na alam niya ang mga gawain ng boyfriend ko pagdating sa pakikipagrelasyon.

Dear Atty Gurfinkel:


My husband was petitioned as "single" by his immigrant-father (Category F-2B). While my husband was waiting for his visa, we got married and we had two children. Our childrenís birth certificates reflect the date and place of our marriage. When the time came for my husband to be processed for his visa, he did not disclose our marriage and that he has children, to the Embassy. Instead, my husband immigrated to the U.S. as "single", with no children.
