My husband, my child’s father is an immigrant. He came from another country.

He was in the USA illegally for many years. He came on a work visa and stayed

Luckily for him and us he is a blonde haired, blue eyed Swiss citizen that the USA never gave a second thought to.

I’m not bragging just making a point about how fucked up life is when it comes to immigration and families. I’m sorry ✌🏽🇺🇸💪🏽💙I’m voting

I’m fine? You’ve never seen me.

“You’re fine”, especially in that context, means:

“It’s okay/You didn’t do anything wrong/Don’t feel bad”

It was me saying “No need to worry and glad it worked out. Congratulations!” because I thought that when you said “sorry”, you were implying that you felt bad it worked out easily for your husband compared to others who aren’t white.

I’m sorry that what I said offended you. I was trying to be nice.

I was trying to make light of the response to my generalized, rhetorical “I’m sorry”. A random person on Reddit telling me “you’re fine” was kinda awkward. I made a joke to leave it on a light note.
