[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks all. I am trying to do less "backseat driving." The reason I do so much backseat driving is because there are a lot of moves involved and I'd like them to stop soon and for us to land somewhere we both want to live. I like a PP, telecommute so that's been a blessing.

It's exhausting to always be riding someone about their career because of my own fear, and I am really trying to back off. [/quote]

I am the telecommuting Army wife. DH has had 5 deployments and we've had 4 moves in the past 12 years. He is changing units when he returns from the current deployment and we should have 3 years in one place (finally). I was more okay with moving when we were younger, but I'm ready to settle down somewhere. He knew this and that's why he requested the change.

FWIW, I never explicitly tell him what to do. I knew going into this what it would be and I know I could have left at any point years ago when I got tired of being constantly uprooted. Do you have children in the mix? That definitely makes it harder. [/quote]
