I found this in a free magazine when I first arrived here, I was quite homesick and resentful that I had had to give up my support network and all the things I had planned ahead for (2 year waiting lists for swimming lessons), and so when I read this it made me laugh hysterically but then this only brought on tears. Which was a bit embarrassing as I was in a coffee shop. A year later its still funny but my reaction is not so strong, I still miss home and am lonely for my friends but have some kind of support network built up now, even if it is the occasional park play date or a guitar/pottery lesson. I still miss my friends and resent my husband for getting to spend time away from the kids. Sorry dear.
