Relocated
Hi Everyone!
I'm new to this chat! I recently got married in August and my husband and I decided to move to Indiana where he teaches. We did long distance and had to decide where to live. I got Rif'd(let go due to budget reduction) from my teaching job and felt we would be more stable in Indiana rather than where I am from in Illinois. Married life is great, but I hit some rough patches where I'm really missing my family. It's not so easy to just be able to visit or have them come visit me when they want and it's hard to get used to. My husband is a coach and is gone a lot, so I'm feeling a bit lonely. I have joined many activities to keep myself busy, but sometimes, I just hit these patches. I guess I was just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat as I am or was in the same boat. Any advice would be helpful!
Re: Relocated
I moved for exH who prefered Indy of suburbs of Chicago. He is an exH because he decided that being married wasn't actually for him (there is some other things to that but I'm not going to go into all the details). We had been married 1.5 years when we moved. I work at a private school on the south side of Indy.
I love meetup.com for meeting people with similar interests to help me make friends.
Where are you at in IN?
I relocated here from Chicago. It is a big change and I still struggle with missing my family. It is hard to be away from them.
What part of IN are you in?
Hi!
I cannot relate to your relocation/ separation from your family but I wanted to say hello and welcome to Indy! My mom lives about 1/2 mile from me and we see each other at least once a week. I would actually love to move from Indy, but DH isn't quite on board with the idea. My stipulation is that it has be somewhere warm! I don't even really care where.
I hope you can spend some QT with your family over the holidays! Nice "meeting" you!
