I want to teach overseas for 6 months but will my 3 year marriage suffer as a result even though my husband supports me?

Question - (3 May 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 4 May 2007)
A female Australia age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My husband and I have been married for 3 years. We are relatively young (late 20s). I really hate where we live (a developing country) and am making plans to go to teach in Asia for 6 months. Is this crazy? Will our marriage last such a separation? An acquintance tells me I should be very careful, if I want to keep things in tact, that I should fly back here at least 3 times during my stay away.... My husband seems to understand that I am a very independent person who loves to travel and since he can't join me, is generally supportive.... I of course don't want to screw up my relationship with the man I love!!! Advice please!!!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (4 May 2007):

I think that what you want to do is amazing, however before making sure a huge step you should really know how your husband feels, is he supportive because he thinks that you want him to be or because he really is? If he is supportive of your choice to do this than you should carry out your plans it sounds to me as if you really do have a great marriage and a strong trust.

Good luck xx
