I am considering leaving my husband as I can no longer deal with being a single parent without support in a foreign land. We moved to France for the health of my son who has asthma, we were supposed to give up life in the UK and turn our attentions to finding work and living the dream. Un-expectedly my Husband continued to work in the UK joining the commuting crowd every other week. I have never been happy being here on my own for the week whilst he works in the UK but things are now getting worse. His wook load now demands that he spends the majority of his time away from home leaving me as a single parent to 2 children. My son continues to have his illness and we often stay in hospital and I am very often on my own when attacks occur, its a very stressful experience. However its my relationship with my husband that is really bothering me. He comes home most weekends so tired that he has to sleep for the weekend, thereby not contributing a lot to family life. He is so busy at work that he forgets to phone home or he's just to tired. I now feel that the advancement of his career is just to high a price to pay for my happiness. I often feel isolated and alone and really want to move back to the UK but as yet hav'nt been able to sell our house. Right now I just want to get on a plane and come home. My question is am I over reacting, or am I really being taken for a door mat?
