I have just arrived in Detroit from England (via Amsterdam) that evening. There was only about 5 Border control officers and they were taking their merry time.
I approached smile, said Good Evening and handed over my passport
Stoney faced gaurd asked my purpose of visiting the US, I said visiting a "friend" I have been told BC do not like the word "Boyfriend"
He asked me do I know his name (Duh)
Do I know where he lives (I hope so!)
Do I know his phone number and If he himself rang him would he confirm my story?
I said of course and bent down to get his number out my bag and when I stood up he just gave me a filthy look and continued with his questions.
He asked me what I do for a living I said.."cleaner" he said.."what is that" and I had to explain what it was and that I work school terms so I had 6 weeks off.
He asked where we met I said POF and he told me thats a singles website, I said that I knew and did i Know that it was a singles website *duh!* and am I sure this guy was not my boyfriend, I said how could I be in a relationship with someone I never met? (blatent lie but he doesnt need to know that)
He eyed me up for a minute and considered me, he then asked If I had paid for my own ticket, I confirmed I had. He considered me a little longer then stamped me through, as I was picking up my bags he said he had alot of "my type" come through, I thought, how very rude!
I stayed in America for 4 weeks, came back to England and will be flying out in 6 weeks time to stay for the holidays (Halloween through to New Years) the ticket is booked but I suddenly have this sinking feeling I will face trouble at border control. I have booked at 84 days so under 90. I visited for 4 weeks but stayed away for nearly 7 before going back. I will be quitting my job to go back to him again and I have a feeling this may raise an eyebrow.
Sorry this is a little long, I am just concerned I will face further problems or bad mooded officers. Anyone else had this problem. He seemed more aggitated by the fact I was able to answer his questions.
