I will also say.. Pat is a very talented man who gets along well with people. If you talk to him outright and he understands what a deep seated need it is to be a nature girl.. you will probably find that he WANTS to move for you to achieve inner happiness. One thing i did discover this weekend is that no matter what society tells us.. the woman is the queen of the household, if she is happy, everyone contained therein and those who surround her will also feel happy. That job for you is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.. like you told me in an earlier post carpe diem! Since he started working also, Pat seems SO much happier and well adjusted. I think he deserves the opportunity to make it possible for the beautiful woman of his life to realise her dream job. If you're fulfilled and complete in your job, he will get to see you glow from within your soul. So yes, of course realism has to take a large part. But don't just tell him whats best for him is to stay where he's happy, he deserves to choose. Life is risks. If you don't take that leap into the unknown.. who knows what is beyond that cliff, your happiness together could double or more. big hugs to you both :)
You're such a sweetheart! Of course he deserves to make that choice with me. Sometimes I don't give him enough credit for being the big hearted oaf he is. I get all caught up in the oaf part and forget the rest. He told me to follow my heart, do what makes me happy, because it makes him happy. I have chosen to stay for now, not because I am afraid, but because we have so many plans for the next couple years that all revolve around this locale. I need to complete some of these goals before I can honestly enjoy (without regret) a choice of that magnatude. The compromise is this. He and I will be camping every weekend we can this summer (ie: we both havethe same days off, etc) and when we cannot, we will do our usual rounds with the dog at the amazing dog park here. That is not spending every day hiking to a site, or wandering through the woods, but it is a compromise that will help me keep in touch with all things wild. *hugs* hon. And thank you :)
