At Last…

. . . there is a verdict. A firm one. An *actual* verdict. After four months, we finally have a real plan.

I’m going to be able to live with my husband before our first anniversary.

I’m going to be leaving Seoul early, and I’m going to be in Chennai, India before summer (this summer, that is).

I’m so, so happy that we can finally plan for the future in a real sense. I’m relieved that I now have an actual date after which my husband and I will at last be able to really feel like we’re married, and act like a real married couple, and finally live together. We’ve been waiting for this for so long, living in a constant state of agonizing separation for so long, that it almost doesn’t seem real even now that it actually is.

    I’m very happy for you. My partner and I were separated for much of two years while she was in Azerbaijan, and living together is MUCH better.
