dislike my location!

Where is your home town?

You need to talk to your husband about it. It's a joint venture when a partner takes on a job overseas and you both need to be supportive of each other. Not just in passing saying you are unhappy, but put time aside to really discuss the matter. How long have you been at your location? Everyone seems to go through the 3 month blues and it's really hard.


Until you let go and accept that this is the way your life is at the moment, then you will become more and more miserable. You need to say, yes I have fun back home, I miss my family but I can visit.


I found when I first moved to HK and knew no one, I was really down and felt very alone. So I did what I have never done before, I approached people and struck up conversations. I was really hard for me to do, but I did it and I'm glad I did, because now I have some lovely friendships. You need to put yourself out there as difficult as it may be.


Use your child!!! Children are the best way to strike up friendships. Just because you are younger than the other mums, that doesn't mean that you don't have children in common. Try giving these people another go, they may be put off by your negativity or shyness.


Unless you move back home with your family and friends and have a long distance marriage with your husband, then as difficult as it is to say, you need to harden up. There are three choices, stick with it and push your way through to carving out a life as best you can, 2. Leave and go home without your husband or 3. Ask your husband to quit his job and move back home.


It's a tough choice and you both need to make the right decision and be comfortable with it because the last thing you need is to resent each other for decisions that have been made.


Good Luck.
