Dear editor, We moved to this country 12 years ago, to be close to my husband’s family for more support and because the cost of living was lower. Now in my late 40s, I feel trapped in life abroad and want to move back to London. The city we live in is known for its multiculturalism and diversity. Everything seemed to be working perfectly, until recently. The industry I work in is dominated by local people. It seems they are unwilling to allow me to join what they are doing and that I am excluded. Seeing my eldest child leaving home and my youngest, still at school, becoming more independent has made me realise how unhappy I am. I feel I have always disregarded my own needs. I would like to go back to London right away. But our children feel at home here. I’m confused about what to do. Yours, Merrila Dear Merrila, Everything worked perfectly until recently. What happened? Something must have contributed to this. I’ve spent a long time reading your letter and wonder if your issue is a geographical one. The glass ceiling and ignorant people can and do exist in any city. While those issues are problematic, I wonder if it’s actually a reaction to such happenings: one of your children is leaving home and the other one won’t be far behind, and you’re thinking: “What will the next chapter of my life look like and have I done what I wanted to?” Something magical happens to women in midlife when they realise it’s time to put themselves front and centre. You can talk with your husband about how you feel. In the short term, plan a trip to London, meet up with some old friends and see what they say. Yours, Annalisa Barbieri |
