[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you asked yourself why she wants to be across the country? I mean this to be supportive - you sound smothering. You are worried about her health, her bank balance, her friends. She is 28 years old and an independent adult. I would suggest you step back a little. If you ease off the pressure of wanting to be involved in every facet of her life and just support her, what would happen? What if when she calls (and I hope you are not calling her every day, are you?) just ease off. How are things? That sounds great, honey, I am so proud of you. No nagging, no questioning, no worrying. See what happens if you do that for a month. No matter how hard it is, don't offer her any unsolicited advice (and minimal solicited), don't fret to her about anything, just love and support her. I bet your relationship will be profoundly altered. For the better. [/quote] she wanted to move to an area that's less expensive and warmer. .[/quote]
