I just had an interview today that went well, at least that's what I thought. Well, my thoughts were correct, I have an offer coming though and it is back in the US where I want to be. I gave it a year here and nothing has changed. Now if I can only convince myself to stay the course and not back down and chase my dreams. Funny thing is, I really don't care, except I'm overwhelmed by sadness for her. I explained how I felt. I explained the COL is so much higher over here and she only brought up the fact that tomatoes cost more. Anyways, it took me 6 months to find this job in the UK after getting here and I make about 1/3 of what I would in the US and I literally pay double in taxes. How is this cheaper? Yes, she is close to her family and yet I still have not seen mine in 7 years. I just need to stay strong and follow this through.

Edit: I forgot to mention, I literally applied for the job less than a week ago. At least if I get divorced, as I'm sure this is where this road ends, the 60/40 split is totalled off what I earned in my pay the last three paychecks. I'm laughing, because, even though I haven't done the math, she is getting what this was all along, her own pension, via me, considering hers is only £1500 total saved, over her life. I just found this out a few weeks ago. She has worked for 20 years over here and only saved that much.
