[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks a lot for the suggestions and replies.

It's kind of an unpleasant situation because this was supposed to be our last "temporary" stop before he finds tenure as an academic. He has yet to receive an offer for a tenure-track job though. He is going to apply for some grants that will buy him more time but will likely place him in a new country (neither the US nor our current one). If it comes down to that, I think I'll return to the US and start over.

To make matters worse, I have FINALLY had interviews but I will not have the right to work once he leaves. I feel like I'm waiting to live.[/quote]

You both have a right to pursue careers that bring you a sense of accomplishment and purpose.

What if you found a job in, say, NYC, D.C., LA, Boston, Seattle (i.e. someplace culturally rich) and your husband were to spend winter and summer breaks together,  with you taking vacation time in the summer to meet him if he happens to be doing a fellowship somewhere cool?

If you otherwise love this person, you can find a way to have both a great relationship and a satisfying career if you think out of the box.[/quote]
