Hi...Just read this and its been a long time since you posted, but figured I'd say my peace. Did you and your husband discuss the move before-hand? or was it just a "we have to move" for the job or something? It seems like too many married couples (especially if the wife doesn't work) end up with this sort of scenario...I would suggest sitting down with your husband and saying that you are willing to try it for x amount of time. If after that you still feel the same way, you should sit down and discuss moving. If he doesn't care then its time to consider leaving him because if he isn't interested in your point of view, he's not worth the time....

If you're real bored, go get a job (if there are any there) that will also help with the house payment. Seek out friends, maybe try to take up new hobbies...and talk to your husbad. If you just can't be happy there it's not worth staying there for a house.

Well, not a lot of information here, but you just moved, and it is a lot different than what you are used to, and your friends and family are not there so you feel blue.

Give it more time, and seek out some new friends, and your attitude may change for the better....as far as the house, maybe you can afford it, and you are more conservative financially than your husband, and you are filled with worry....maybe he is not showing you the numbers, the way to alleviate worry is to sit down with the figures and make a budget so that you can afford your monthly expenses and have some left over to do some things together that you enjoy....if money is tight then one of you needs to get a job, or you need to sell the house and get an apartment until you find a more affordable home.....

How crazy...you're not the only one that feels like. I myself is in the desert as well and let me tell you, there's nothing here. The "mall" is Walmart...lol.

Where abouts did you come from? What's your reason to moving to the desert?

Sit down with your husband and tell him how you feel. Don't keep it in because you'll blow.
