I haven't quite lost all hope - I have given him some breathing space and will talk to him later about his reasons and see if I can put good, positive arguments to these. Then perhaps when he has gone through a dull winter here he may change his mind. I don't want to pressure him but I want us both to be happy and at the moment neither of us seems to be happy.

Good luck!  |
If all else fails then as Glenda says I may have to find something else that will fill that void in my life that was NZ. Don't know what  and even then OH may not agree. This is the first big hurdle we have had to face in our 20 years of marriage - not bad eh?
