Should i go or not?

Question

I left my kids and grandbabies a year ago moved away got married and cant seem to be happy working here i sold my buisness to my daughter all i ever known was that job,i loved it and miss it well she has offered a job to me but it would entail living there during the week and coming here(home) on the weekends because it is to far to drive back and forth. I am afraid to tell my husband but i am not happy here i have had 3 jobs and turned down numerous because I was afraid to have to learn something new?Or i just flat out dont want to be here. I am 52 yrs old.I know nobody here but my husband ,people are so to themselves.The thing i am afraid of is losing him or our marriage going to pot because i am not here and that is my old stomping grounds.,with my x there.Help i need some advice.

I feel like a failure because i cant go forward and i am afraid of not spending this quality time with my kids and grandkids.I miss so much they were my life till my marriage,I thought it would be easy but it is not and i am afraid if things dont change i will end up leaving and maybe never coming back because i am not happy here,i love my man but it is not enough.

Answer 1

How does your husband feel about your new location? Have you sat down over some coffee and really discussed the situation? If you are not happy being where you are then you really need to discuss this with your husband directly. A wise person once told me that "life is way too short to be someplace that you really do not want to be"....I've applied that to working and life situations and quite frankly it really set me free.

Answer 2

You really need to have this discussion with your husband. He may already know that things aren't right but if you can't share with him the things that matter to you or are bothering you, he can't possibly be part of the solution. Make this a priority.
