Okay this is the problem:
My husband attends school at skymates in arlington and has currently started to work there as a CFI. He is still getting his other ratings there as well. We have been married for seven years and have a seven year old daughter. He lives in arlington and I live about 2 1/2 hours away with family to help save money nd so I can keep my job and pay and also so my daughter can continue to do dance there. Also we did not want to move her to turn around and move somewhere else when he gets hired on with an airline. This really sucks being apart but I can see the end finally after eight years of school. Me and my husband have been together for ten years and we have made it through a lot but this sometumes seems like to much. I geuss my question is has anyone else been through this? Is anyone else doing this currently? DH says that a lot of pilots have done t his. I have meet some of the guys that h work with and none of them are in this situation.
I know that he will not be home much when he gets on with the airlins and all but at least I know that he willl be comming hoe to me, and not to an empty house like he is now. Plus it kills me to see my daughter cry every time we leave his house. I know when school and dance start it will be easier on her but I feel like a single mom and I never wanted to be one.
I dont know what to do because I want to be with him but he will be done in December. I need my job since CFI dose not make much money. I hate this feeling of not knowing what to do or if this feeling is normal. I wish I knew if we were doing the right thing in being apart for this time. My family tells me it is the right thing and that he is almost done and then you guys will have a normal life. what ever that means, we have never ahd a normal life together.
I feel so confused about the decisions that we have made and am starting to question if they are the right ones. Well if any one has any advice I would greatl appreciate it.
