Hi Guys,
Another post by Kdal got me thinking about family. I'm very nosey and wondering how many of you guys have 'family issues' that are contributing to your decision to move to Oz? I know its kind of hard to admit, but if you search deep is there any underlying reasons for wanting to move to the other side of the world?
The thing is so many people on here talk about thier family very fondly, but i wonder if they are really that perfect and wonderful, why are you leaving them? I compare my family to other families i know, and think i may not be going if my family was like them...
I'll start the confessions:
Due to my mum splitting with her first husband i have 2 half sisters, who were seperated when they were babies. I grew up with one, but didn't meet the other till i was 18. I have fantastic relationship with my 'new' sister, but my mum and other sister don't, which causes huge tensions and unhappyness. Its unspoken unhappyness though, and makes being with my family very difficult for me. So if i'm really honest, i look forward to being on the other side of the world. If it wasn't for this i don't know if our other reasons to move to Oz outwiegh leaving my family. I love them by default, and i will miss them - but thats not enough.
So tell me, do you have any reasons to leave your family, or things that make it easier for you to go, or are your families perfect?
Nosey Meg
