How your feel by missing your family


Question Posted Saturday October 16 2004, 8:27 am

Hi everyone,
I came to USA 4 years back because of job and now in the attempt of earning and saving more money, I am stuck up here. My family( My wife and my kids) was with me for last 2 years and they went back recently to my home country because of certain family problems. I am missing my family too much. I dont know, how american/european/russian/asian people feel if they undergo in the same situation. Let me know what and how you feel. Thanks. MACHADS

well when you leave your support system behind..it will be very tough for you.

but your wife's place is WITH you. Unless she is taking care of a very sick parent..her place is with you.

of course you are having problems...you have no one here.

Amercia is very different form other countries. For those of you that come from large famileis which have huge support systems..this is a very ahrd place to be.

So my advice to you...tell your wife to get back to you. No one is more important than her husband.

My stepfather is actually in Quatar right now, so I know how the separation feels. I know its hard sometimes, but keep strong and be positive. We unfortunately cant go with my stepfather, but he can come visit us whenever he has vacation time. Try planning large family vacations if you can. Meet somewhere like a halfway point (i hear Ireland is BEAUTIFUL!!), try an overseas telecommunications service(www.bigzoo.com is a good one), use web cams so you can continue to see your family, send photos and letters or email constantly,and get your wife to mail you your childrens schoolwork in the mail so you can keep up with what your kids are doing. I hope by sharing my experiences, you can find some peace in being seperated from your loved ones!

hey there, coming from an asian backgroud here it certainly is no different actually what ever background u come from. we all tend to miss our loved ones dearly when we dun get to see them everyday. why not call them up like once every week to check on them (or ure doing that already?) or how about get a webcam? of course ur wife's home should have a webcam too then u guys can see each other still! lol i know im not much of a help.. but i hope everything goes fine for ya.. take care!
