Living her dream Hating her dream

[stevewool]

What happens when the dream turns into a nightmare, you both have planned to make the move back to her homeland and why, the sunshines most of the time, its like being with a family that share many things as well as your cash, plus its cheaper then where you lived before and money is not as flowing as it was before.

Life is good at first but the heat starts to get to you, the family coming around is causing yourself to think you are alone plus you are tide to the place where your wife was born, and its not what you are wanting, but your wife loves it.

Can you afford to leave and move back to where you use to feel safe and secure to what you was use too, or have you burnt all your bridges.

People say dont burn all your bridges because it may not work, so is this a reason not to do it.

People who have moved for the love ones do they know you dont like it , or dont they care, or is it a case you will grow to like it.

I would hate to move to a place and then full out with it , but then not being able to move because of my partner dont want to move or running out of cash.

 No reason not to do it Steve, but How many Times have we said, Heard, Read Always have a Plan B. But then over the Years I have learned (Learnt) Plans C,D,E & F, can  come in very Handy, So far after all these years I still have Plans B,C,D & E in Place (Although I did spend Plan F on a new car BUT the others are there. We are still on Plan "A" mate and as Happy as Pigs in Pig S...t

The first problem with your scenario Steve is moving to where the family is - at least 5 hours away is the go!

Jesus Jack, I think that is about 4 you owe me now when we get to Dumaguete.  The SO asked me the other night if we were going back to  Dumaguete to see all those larrikins once settled in Phils - my answer a definate 'yes'.

Have you lived in the same place all your life, Stevewool?  Most of us have moved a time or twenty.  When you get tired of the new place you move again.  We don't have to put down deep roots, although its starting to sound like you have roots where you are and you don't want to pull them up.

By the way, in the twenty or so times I have moved I never went back to the same place twice.  Been there, done that, there was a reason I felt like moving away and its probably still valid. PLUS there is a whole world to see.  If you get to a place and hate it then try another.  Life is simple.  Just enjoy it.

Burn those bridges.  Its much more fun building new bridges than commuting on the old ones every day.

Maintaining those old bridges can be more trouble than they are worth also... If your move forward didn't work out the way you wanted, instead of retreating over that old bridge, just move forward again. Simple, and certainly more fun.

Steve when you run out of bridges just swim across to the next place

Sounds like you got the twitters matey, quite normal to keep throwing up the "what if's"

Don't put all your duck eggs in the one basket, tell Emm's, living near family is a temporary move, till you find the place of your choice.

One thing I have learnt from the forum posts, the bigger the family the more demanding it can be. Set the rules before you set sail from the shore.

Could always stay in cold, dark, wet, long winters, short summers, paying council tax, National insurance, tax, VAT and live in the Nanny state a while longer.....................before making the move
