embassy interview help !!

I think that's where the problem lies. As far as the ECO is concerned it's only 6 months ago you were applying for a visit visa for one girl and now after such a short time your applying for a fiancee visa for a different girl. He may be thinking that it's not a serious relationship and what your really after is to get her to the UK for 6 months any which way that works.

He may think that, because you got refused before with the visit visa for the other girl, you just thought you'd fork out a bit more dosh this time and try the fiancee visa instead with your new girlfriend.

I agree that this is what is probably concerning them. Do you have any ways to prove to them that your relationship is stronger and better with Annabel than with the previous girlfriend/s? If they sadly refuse, then you will need to think of ways that will show them how close & genuine relationship you have and maybe make another visit to see her (that should satisfy them more that it is more genuine) before applying again sometime later, but how long to leave it before applying again, I don't know.
