Calling all Expats that don't like living in their new country

Schnullerbacke · 03/03/2010 15:22

I lived in England for 12 years (in the begining really liked it and then not so), then my husband and I got the chance to live in my country for the past two years and whilst I knew it would not last forever, these two years have flown by like crazy and we were just told that we will have to move back in 3 months. I am absolutely gutted.

Husband is in the Army so either I grit my teeth and move with him or I will have to break up the family which I don't really want to do.

I was counting on being here until December and have made loads of plans for the summer to make the most of it.
I feel like my heart has been ripped out and am in floods of tears again as I write this.

We will move to an area that is ok I suppose but having two youngs kids, I just really want to stay here and for them experience what I did when I was young. I know they won't know the difference as they will not know any different but I do and am really having a hard time with it.
I know there are always the holidays but it's not the same.

So, if any of you have been or are in this situation, how are you coping with it?

Thanks.

Can't comment on your situation but wonder whether you might get more response in the "language/bilingualism" section (or even the Army and BFPO secion)?

Good luck.
