Virtual hugs needed :(

Hi Congratulations on your engagement If you really are unhappy in Kuwait then don't stay there, you can still have a perfectly lovely wedding that costs less, so that way you don't have to work in a different country and you get more time with your H2B , or can you not get a shorter contract? sorry I don't know how it all works, good luck with whatever you decide

(((((((virtual hugs))))))) sorry I forgot to put that on my previous post

We've already paid all our deposits and sent out save the dates.....and to be honest we're got our heart set on the wedding we've got in mind. Plus if I tried to break my contract I would incur huge fines and a possible travel ban, meaning I wouldn't be allowed to get out of the country!! [:'(]

Thanks forthe hugs though xx

Thank you! We FaceTime every day, sometimes several times a day...we are constantly in touch! It's just not the same not being physically with each other. Its been so much harder since we got engaged as we had the most amazing 3 weeks together over Christmas, and leaving each other was just horrendous. Only 3 more weeks and I'm back for a week.....but the days just seem to go so slowly and feel like I'm wishing my life way. I was inconsolable on the phone earlier.....OH now saying he wants me to move home. But just not that simple ( xx

My OH and I were in a long distance relationship for the two years and to some extent, we still are as I am away at university during the week and return home on the weekends. Admittedly we weren't anywhere near the distance apart as you are, but not being able to be with him was really hard. To start off with we only saw each other once a month and I really, really missed him! It does suck, but it will go quite fast if you've got your heart set on the dream wedding then there's not really much you can do. Try and keep yourself busy when you're not working with hobbies, sports or meeting with friends, that way you will have less free time to feel lonely

*hugs*

Hope you feel better soon x

Could read and run. ? You're very strong.

I'm not.....that's the problem! I'm a blubbering mess lol! xx

Huge huge hugs sweetie!

xxxx

Hi, must be really hard for you! But you will get through it and then you will have the rest of your lives together.

Have you already signed up for the additional year after this June? As if not you could just finish in June. Could you try ask them about finishing early, would they be reasonable at all?

Hugs! xxx

Oh no! your stronger than me. I just don't think I could do it. Hug to you. X

Big big hugs xxxxxx

I'm in exactly the same position as you but obviously the other way round I only see my OH 10 weeks a year as his job is a little different to yours (I won't bore you with details) and I miss him very much BUT we're doing this for the financial security and it's not forever. We live by skype and the internet, we probably talk more than an average couple and have every evening together. I long for when he comes home but as he said when he's doing over here what he does over there knowing that we're secure makes things a little more bearable.

If you ever want some support then email me, I do know what it's like.

Oh goodness, poor you ☹️. It's horrible being away from a loved one so I completely understand. It will be worth it but that doesn't make you feel any better right now does it.

How long have you been together? Just trying to give you some positive words on how quick that has gone already maybe?
