Husband got a great job offer but I’m reluctant to move because of lifestyle
Hi 👋 we are a married couple (45F/43M) in Australia who have been in the lifestyle for just over 4 years now. It’s been a fantastic thing for us and our relationship and our only regret at this point is that we didn’t start sooner.
Last week hubby was approached by his work about an opportunity in the US with his company. It would be a promotion and a pay rise which is great, and I’m very proud of him for getting selected for this position.
But… part of me is reluctant to say “yes” to the move because I feel like we’ll have to leave all our lifestyle friends behind and start from square one again which is really hard. It’s become such a significant part of our lives that the prospect of having to rebuild that part of our lives from scratch in a new place is daunting.
I guess I’m asking the group if I’m over-reacting or not? And for those who have been in similar situations (moving long distances, leaving people and partners behind) how did you manage to start over again successfully?
