Moving with young kids...
I’ve lived in this city for several years in different areas, unfortunately we’ve ended up in a bad area the last 4 years. I’ve hated it. It doesn’t help that I will soon have 2 under 2 in the coming weeks and I am 4hours away from family . I feel isolated, alone and stuck with a husband who doesn’t support me emotionally. I have had CBT therapy to help with my anxieties, but ultimately, I know things will only change if I change what is happening. My husband knows I’m very unhappy but refuses to consider moving, not even half way to where my family are, where I can get support a lot more easily.... a 2hr car drive is better than 4.... his family are no help and live just as far away. The only solution is for me to literally move out and in with my parents with 2 babies under the age of 2 far away from their father. I don’t know what else to do.... I’m at the end of my tether.
Added: he won’t move because he like his job, which is a contract job. He could get a similar position in a city closer to family. He says that I’m not being fair to him by asking him to move. I also have an enjoyable job here too, but my emotional abs mental health has taken its toll for too long... I don’t know if we would divorce if I moved out with my family - probably, as it would come across as me walking away....
