wife misses previous town and the big city. just being in their previous town helped... husband wasn't/isn't helpful w/ their babies nor housework so previous town gave wife stimulation/ excitement and enough energy to do it herself, plus both had family there who would help out. husband wants to stay at least a couple of years for work but often speaks of its low housing market verses the big city market. wife has been depressed the 4 months they've been there. its affecting their marriage. husband recently went on interview to live in their old city but at last min rejected their 2nd interview even after they told him he was fully qualified. wife can't pursue her dream there: singer. their youngest is 1 month old and still her husband isn't helpful. a day can go by w/o him holding him.

Find out why he wants to stay there so bad. If he's been in the company for a while and this will help his career then he might want to just tough it out and get the couple of years experience in the smaller office before going back to big city. Lower housing prices are big attractions for home buyers.
The point is, they need to talk about "Why" he wants to be there and come up with a compromise. Just saying, he needs to move back or she needs to suck it up isn't going to do anyone any good

Well it seems that you both need to sit down and have a real discussion on all the things you mentioned-as far as going from a big city to a small one i feel that in general would take some time fo any one to adapt to even in good circustances-it sounds to me that the real issues at hand is not so muh the location but the fact that husband isnt helpful and there is no family around to help-i would take one thing at a time and first discuss that i need some help with the kids etc and see how that goes and if he starts helping out you may feel better about where you live-who knows, if he isnt willing to even try then i would probably want to move back near my family with or without him-good luck to you

You really don't have a say in where you want to live. Your husband is bringing home the bacon and your job is to take care of your babies. You need to be a woman and suck it up or get a full-time job. Your husband works full time to take care of your and your children and you want him to do housework? Give your husband a break. I wish my husband would let me stay home and take care of me.
