It it works, it works. I've been married for 9 years and I've moved away for 6 month stints twice due to my career. Now that we've got a 14 month old boy I wouldn't do it though. We saw each other about two weekends a month.

Dude, there's gotta be more detail than just "she informed me she wants to take a six month assignement in Dubai".
Did she explain why? How it will help her career? How it will help your future together? Did she say any of this shite?

If she claims she fell asleep and missed your skype date a few months from now.

Of course there was more detail, but I didn't want to transcribe the conversation. She thinks that it will be good for her career, an exciting experience, and that she'll save a lot of money as the company will pay a lot of expenses. My concern stems largely from the fact that she just doesn't seem to think it's a big deal.

Look at all those Eastern European hookers.

What's everyone's deal? This is his opportunity to have an extra 6 months on the market with her out of town.

That kind of move is a big deal. Even if she goes she should still not act as if it's nothing.

I don't think it's that big of a deal. Obviously they need to talk out the logistics but we aren't talking about a permanent or long-term assignment.

I wouldn't take life advice from a guy who doesn't give a shite about whether or not he ever sees his family again.

Yea, that's exactly what I'm saying

Yeah exactly. I'm not sure how long y'all have been together, but it can't bode well that a month into the engagement she wants to GTFO for 6 months.

Well I am just a needy female. I actually like spending time with my husband though.
Posted on 8/12/15 at 12:05 am to HoustonChick86
As do I with my wife. But I understand that obtaining career goals and a healthy relationship can both be accomplished.
Posted on 8/12/15 at 12:10 am to Golfer
I don't think either way is wrong, fwiw.

If she happens to be around at the time or even in town. Otherwise frick it. She'll come home some day and you can see her then, amirite?

Yep, basically how it works around here...

I'm in a somewhat long distance relationship as is (100 miles away) and if my girlfriend moved to even to another state then i'd call it off and she knows that. We aren't engaged so idk how I'd feel if we were, but to me leaving like that for work or whatever else it is is choosing something else over the relationship.
I'd hate the bitch for doing it at the time, but if sje came back I would certainly think about trying again. Some people are just wired differently and think work is the most important thing in their life and there really isn't anything wrong with that if they're fine risking being alone.
