But can't seem to put my reasons into words to explain to a husband that is happy here (Australia).
I am just not settled.
We're here on temp visas until October 2011 when we can apply for PR but the thought of staying beyond then fills me with dread.
I feel that if I pressurise him into coming back to the UK it will finish my marriage but at the moment I just can't find the words to explain why I don't want to stay. He asks me too and then just says I need to make more friends here! Christmas was bloody horrendous. We were with his family (they are amazing) but it was their Christmas and not ours. DSs 2nd birthday is probably going to be the same. If it was the UK our garden would be full of family, loads of friends and a bouncy castle. It just doesn't happen that way here.
The pull of family and friends is just too strong.
I am going back for a visit in September.
See what I mean? I just can't explain why this doesn't feel right to me.
Has anyone felt like this before?
