Hi
I’m having a difficult time atm, my partner is pregnant and though we live in a nice village she doesn’t want to stay here. Her job doesn’t pay much and she wants to move to a town – since I am self employed the only way we can do this is if I sell the house (I owned the house before we met) and get enough money to buy the type of house she wants in the town she wants to live in. This is a problem for me since my field of work is not available in the town – I would have to commute ~60 miles each way… It’s causing arguments and the pressure to earn the money to pay for all of this ~250k, is very high.
Thank you
J

Thank you Sharingan, the current presssure point may well be due to the stress of the pregnancy... she also has a very stressful job so it could. I want to do the best for all of us but the money side is stressful, there's also an issue in that I am funding it all and I think she resents it.
i'm not really sure what anyone can do here - surely it's up to you to talk to her about this (or would you like me to come round and point out to her she's being unreasonable?)
a couple of points
1) you already must have a long commute if the town is 12 miles away, but you commute 120 miles a day - would it really be that hard for you to add another 12 miles onto your journey?
2) a pregnant person doesn't need NCT classes, and even if she felt she did, why can't she drive 12 miles to get them (are you near a childrens centre?; they often have bumps and babies classes where she can meet other pregnant people)
