Does anyone else have the experience of being in a relationship where you’re from different countries but you met and started a life in a third? And then you tried to live in either of your home countries but your relationship somehow works better when you’re in a third country?
Or am I alone in this? It’s a very strange existence.
This is what broke my previous relationship. We met in my country. She went back to hers. We kept flirting. Started for real in a third country, things were great. Moved to her country. She slipped back into all her old routines and friend circle. She could not understand that I as a foreigner in her home country might have cultural adjustment issues, language issues, etc. I wanted to move to a new third country. She didn’t, she thought her country was the best place in the world. Eventually it all fell apart.
