How can agent J be a member of MIB when K was killed by Boris
In Men In Black, Agent K recruits Agent J. However, in Men In Black 3, K was killed by Boris in the past, and next morning, J was still a part of MIB.
How can it be possible? K recruited J and K was killed (obviously before he recruited J).
Am I missing here something?

The movie explicitly states that J is in a time paradox, as evidenced by his craving for chocolate milk, which O says is a indication of time fracture..
So as a paradox, it's obviously not in a stable state.
It should be noted that the alien Griffin is frequently observing "This must be the one where somethingsomethingsomething", obviously implying that other time tracks co-exist. In a time fracture, leaks from one timeline to another should not be impossible. I also seem to recall that the chocolate milk may even give one a measure of immunity.

How did agent J get into MiB?
Agent J (usually called Jay), originally James Darrell Edwards III, is one of the two protagonists of the Men in Black film series. (born October 19th, 1965) is an agent of the MiB, after being recruited by Agent K. He is energetic, and tries to bring life and emotion back to the bland organization.How did agent J remember Agent K?
we all saw how Boris killed J's father, then K neutralized J and he lost his memory. However, in the alternate version of the story - the one that made J travel to save K- K died instead of J's father. That means that J was not neutralized - at least by K -and thus he could remember him.What happened to Agent K and J in MIB International?
MIB3 ends after a time travel expedition, in which J finds out that K met him as a child after J's father died and that his father was killed by an alien right in front of K. K neuralyzes child J of that particular moment, and continues to be someone who watches over him.Does Agent K remember agent J?
K does remember J. It's even implied that K kept a watchful eye over J as he grew up after his father died. But like a good agent he knows better than to play around with causality, so he never lets J find out about their link.
