Just that really. Said during an argument.

He took it back afterwards saying "I didn't mean it like that" but I don't really see how else it could be meant.

I have applied for jobs further north, gotten interviews and an offer. But I stupidly decided to wait until he was ready. tbf, he was supportive of me when I was doing this and it was my decision not to go without him.

I've calmed down and spoken to him, I guess he was just trying to be funny and made an arse of it. tbf he's normally one of the most non-malicious people around so this may have been a case of me blowing off the handle based on nothing.

Where do you want to live? If you have no children, please don't follow someone else or wait until they get their dream job.

My dh used to say the same to me - to be fair he was financially right (I would have lasted obviously but would have been massively skint due to going to uni)
Then I pointed out how much I'd brought to his life - didnt have internet before I met him, no mobile phone despite being a tradesman who needed to take advantage of word of mouth calls, used to leave his damp clothes on a rack as that was what his mum did.
It can be hurtful, but throw what you have brought right back at him. He'll soon shut his mouth if he has any sense
