To be honest, I (sadly) enjoyed that joke.

Alamo, bring me up to speed.

You knew she was in med school, right? And that there was a chance her residency would be in a different state?

Do you feel she intentionally chose to go to a different state to spite you?

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.

Good. Things were getting too serious around here. I often said that the only way my W would get touched by God was if she walked under a cross and it fell on her.

This explains a lot.

I'll leave you all with your anger.

Hope it gets you where you need to be.

Of course. Even before we got together, I knew that we could potentially move a lot. She eventually wanted to be a full-time medical missions doctor, and I was very down with that (I come from a travelling, mission-minded family as well).

Fast forward to the present: She DID apply to hospitals in different states, including California. But coincidentally, the hospital she did her internship last year in SC is the same one that hired her onto their residency program.

So I don't think she did it to spite me, but I feel like she pushed harder and tried to make a greater impression(in terms of interviewing) at that location compared to others. Of course, that's speculation.

To sum it up, when we were together, I was willing to move anywhere with her. Our naivete assumed that my Asian-earned engineering degree will get me work anywhere to, but I was so wrong. That proved to be huge roadblock and part of the reason for our relationship rift. My wife still has this opinion that I can obtain (engineering) work anywhere, but that my low work ethic just refuses to.

With my career more settled now, I don't want to transplant myself again and start from scratch.

WILD speculation. They knew her, they liked her work, her work ethic, she matched.

I guess you're at an impasse that the courts will need to sort out.

labug,

You know that's amazingly unfair. I harbor no anger and you have to understand that it's how guys communicate. We don't make snap judgements about your character, I appreciate it if you will do the same.

I make no judgment.

Your statement stands on its own.

I used to be very sarcastic but then I learned what sarcasm really was.

That was very rude.
