My son has told me he and his girlfriend of a year are moving to Australia then on to her home country of Ireland. I’m not coping well at all. We are extremely close and I never expected to be facing this. He is selling his home, rehoming pets, leaving a good job, she has given him 6 months to finish his studies and be ready to go. I’m devastated she has said she hates it here, there will be no coming back.I got well with her, when they met I asked if nz was now her home, she said Yes. I now know it was never her plan to stay here. I feel anger toward her.. why get into a relationship with someone half a world away? He is a people pleaser in relationships and she is calling the shots. He knows I’m upset but I try to hide it from him. I feel like I’m grieving, the loss of my only son (I have a daughter also) the loss of future grandchildren. I feel like this feeling of heartbreak will never leave me.
