Like many people of my age I've got a number of years in with my career, we've also been effected by the decline in the economy, and it's much harder to afford a trip home. My circumstances must sound very familiar to a lot of you here.

I'm homesick. I've never come to terms with having left England. I'm confused and miserable. I really feel like I want to move back to England. Doing so would mean leaving my husband behind. Leaving here is not an option for him.

At the very least I want a trip home but it simply isn't something I can afford. More and more I have to fight not just giving up everything and everybody that I have here and just go home. I just don't know what to do. Any ideas.

P.S. I'm sorry to sound so sorry for myself, I'm just out of ideas.
Hi, I was East coast and was miserable for 2 years, now I am West (Seattle) and much happier. My husband is American. I know no marriage is perfect but you sound like you have a good one and I would be very cautious of leaving a good marriage. Where are you West? You need to treat yourself like a queen.
I hope you cheer up soon.
