[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they want your relationship for immigration status? Did you recently turn 21?[/quote]

OP.  They never asked about immigration outright. But they did hint they are not exactly wealthy.  I keep my messages to a minimum but pretty much every day now one of them tries to ping me with "How are you doing?"  My half-brothers were genuinely surprised to hear that I work as their wives don't.  They even asked me "can't your husband provide for you?"   :shock: [/quote]

Keep it to a minimum. If you want, tell them you want to take things slowly because your dad gave up all parental rights and their family was not interested in seeing you as a child, so you gave up on all of them.

I would not add them to Facebook.

Tell them your DH can't provide for you and that you need to work. Minimize any financial information and make it seem like you are poorer than you are, to make sure they are not fishing for a wealthy relative. It happens.[/quote]
