Month 3 no movement

[Arsene]

Hey Carnac,

I feel similar with my sitch. Next week will be the end of the Lebaran holiday(end of Muslim holy month of fasting), and W will have to start working hard to make a living.

I can't imagine her spending that much time with OM if she has to practice everyday with various bands (in which other players are often late up to 2 hours - huge waste of time) to build repertoires, on top of that she might have to play/sing 5 or 6 nights a week just to make the minimum she would need to cover her expenses (maybe she needs even more since she has been living on my standard of living for the last 10 years), so she'll also need to get students everyday to supplement her income (and she'll have to travel to their houses by bicycle). So what I'm saying is that she will have her hands full and once real life kicks in, well, OM might not be so supportive then and the life I'll be showing her will look a lot more attractive. I'm not saying that I want her to come back just for the easy life but it might wake her up a bit, and frankly, at this point, it would be nice to see her reconsidering even just a little bit, no matter what the reason is.

Me, on the other hand, being an expat in this country gives me a much higher earning potential. Just with one private lesson (2 hours a week) I already make nearly as much as she does. With the jobs I've lined up so far I will be able to live fairly well and GAL to top it. This is also leaving me a lot of time to spend at home with D8.

Now, I suspect that she might have hidden some of the money we had reserved for the house rental but that isn't going to last very long (if it's still there).

I'm sure that neither of us want to see our Ws struggling but they did make this decision without thinking too much of the consequences so let's see how they manage. I totally understand how you feel Carnac.
