We live in a very expensive area. Rented house. Very little hope of ever being able to buy if we stay.
I've been pressing DH for us to move for about a year. He's always flatly said no because, he says, he likes a particular group of friends who live nearby.
DH is religious. He reckons that he recently was given a 'message from God' that we should move to a particular town a fair few miles away. This is apparently based on him having heard the name of this town 'spoken' to him while praying. I'm not religious at all and I think it's bollocks, but he genuinely believes it.
I've looked into this town, and it sounds awful. Racist, deprived, bad schools, nothing to do... the list goes on.
I've said I'll go and have a look. We can have a trip there, and if it turns out that I like it more than I'm expecting then we can look into it further.
I've asked him if - since he's apparently not as completely against moving as he once suggested - in the situation that we don't end up moving to this town he's set on then we can have a serious look into other places we could get a mortgage.
No. Apparently this is not an option. Either we move to this little town neither of us has even been to but which sounds awful, or we don't move anywhere.
I feel guilty typing this all up because it feels intrusive but I don't have anyone else to talk to and I'm just so frustrated and upset.
