I’m jealous of her

QSince

our daughter left to take a job in Edinburgh, I’ve been lost without her. We talk often, but it’s nothing like it was. Now, it’s become obvious my husband and I have drifted apart. He watches history documentaries, while I scroll through social media, envying all the fun my daughter is having. Should I rent a flat near hers – make a fresh start myself?

available to your daughter; let her know you’re there for her, but let her begin her own journey. Meanwhile, open a conversation with your husband. What do you both want? Be hopeful that relationships can change, and aware that splitting up at just the point your daughter is breaking free might be disturbing for her.
