I met my fiance 7 months ago, got engaged three months into our relationship because he lives three and a half hours away from me and my parents wouldn't have approved of us moving in together with out at least being engaged. I grew up in New York City and being so far upstate now has made me miserable. I can't find a job. I have no friends. He works two days a week and I don't see him for those two days because his job requires him to stay over night there. I've already been moving my stuff back and forth for the past few months and just this past saturday, I brought my cat up here (again) and my parents are hoping I stick it out this time. I love this man, but I can't help but feel homesick and unsure if this is where I want to live for the rest of my life. It's not fair to him that I keep going back and forth and my friends have had it with me. They think I should make my decision and stick with it. I am so unhappy up here, I cry when he's not around. Maybe if I had a job and friends, I would feel differently, but I think my fiance and I just have different backgrounds and I don't think I can adjust to this laid-back lifestyle. A friend once said, "You can take the girl out of the city, but you can't take the city out of the girl." I miss New York City, but I know I would be devastated without this man. And we've talked about moving closer but we don't have the money to do it. I'm so confused and unsure of what to do. If anyone has any advise for me, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you and God bless.
