I'd be worried if it was my friend.

Is there any way you could talk to her dp ' not in the 'you are a useless pile of shite' way but in a 'I'm very worried about X, what do you think. Is there any way we could help her'.

At the end of the day moving abroad, you can't do anything about whether or not you think it is the right desicion.

Maybe she's worried too but she won't admit/talk about it? Perhaps she's depressed because of the worry over financial problems? She might like to talk things through with someone other than her DH & might be grateful if you do start a conversation... might not offend her if you stick to facts, like asking her what exactly is he going to do abroad? And how will it be different from the UK? Or you could just say straight out that you're worried about what will happen.

YP nothing much to say, but kudos to you for being such a wise and aware friend x x

Emigrating with depression and a lowly partner...then she has to deal with isolation, a new culture? Not a good idea.

Just be there for her x x
