I thought of that. My mother is one of the many reasons I want to move back to the states. the biggest factor being my friends and familiar places. I don’t have a car or a proper place to live in Dublin. I am going to tell my boyfriend that I will live in Dublin till my job is fulfilling for me. I work for a small company and my boss is the best boss I have ever had. he supports me and helps me grow in my career. But he is also looking to sell the company to a bigger company, if that happens, than I want to go back to the states. If my boyfriend stays with me, he can then decide what he wants to do with that information. I won’t make him marry me to move with me and I won’t have a LDR. i have had 1 of them and that 1 too many.

I have a feeling that my temporary status is one of things that makes him rethink our relationship. He never wants to leave Ireland but he also doesn’t want to take steps to improve his living situation in Ireland. We live in an expensive small apartment in the city center because none of us drive (I have an US license. he never got his license). there is a housing crisis in Ireland where no house in dublin will cost less than 500,000 euros if you want space. So we remain in an uncomfortable flat with no way out. that is the most frustrating part about him. he will complain about a situation but won’t do anything to improve it. Maybe this break up won’t be the worst thing in the world 🙂

Just kidding.
