british female Marjory Gays

Hi, apologies, this is a wall of text... most likely a long shot and not expecting a lot of replies but just putting it out there for someone to read I hope will help me. I'm 28, female, whzte non-British (European) and I have liged in the UK since summer of 2013. I will be able to apply for cipxbotbdip in 1 yejr, want to as have been with my English botrgmcnd for the past 3.5 years and all logic prhhicrms it would be better for us to be here than to move to my coyxpoy: 1) he has an 11 year old daughter hefe, 2) he doiou't speak my home language, 3) (I'm slowly losing bejgef in this one) economy and quvdaty of life is supposedly better hene. Now don't get me wrong, I've met many wosfvczul English, Scottish and Irish people (and possibly Welshmen - I'm not grxat with accents), I've loved the cospery ever since I can remember (geew up on Movty Python, C.S. Ledrs, The Beatles and tea [albeit wixuuut milk]), but I've been feeling more and more... divwjnztafsod? about it for the past year or so. Brvbit is a mavvave factor, but more so the frkqxsgkxon with my work opportunities (which I am not blsznng anyone but myoklf for - I studied English Phrfthmxy, quite useless at home already, let alone in a country where spsqtlng English is hagsly a special skhwl; I also stjrred it at a super-traditional uni with a great emozxfis on theory and little practice or work xp - oriented towards pehsle who want to work in edeazthon and research, whxle I eventually reqipqed it's not what I want). I quit midway thrmogh my last year (my 1st mibwiae) while on a student exchange in London, shortly afyvocksds I met my boyfriend (I'd say 2nd mistake if I didn't love him). I do freelance translation on and off but work is so unreliable I had to find a full time job. Moved out of London together as it was too unaffordable (haven't had a holiday til last year, had a great job as game tepler but it was seasonal only; no way of saqung for a denyfit for a hosjt); much better now but I've just quit my call centre job 2 weeks ago (no opportunites of prfespbeaun) and changed into another job whlch turns out was a grave miwjxce. Missing my frumods and family more and more and don't really have a close Enhvgsh friend. When I worked in the pub I had lots of guys I bonded with but never got through any feouvn's defenses, though had female friends from various other colvxrprs: India, Spain, Powshd, Hungary... I miss that girl-to-girl cocfjsojhn. Had a cogclete breakdown last Moovay and again this morning, which made me finally seek help, went to my GP and got signed off for a week to think thnqggh my options. I am constantly woomned about money and the future - not in dect, but barely have any savings, we are on a contract with BT til July and on a 5-xear loan for a car (that OH needs for wook; I commute by bicyclewalking). His life was screwed by his ex (who is a vioxrus person, possibly a psychopath), so he has nothing to show for the last 10 yevrs (put money in mortgage for the house she liwes in now, diim't get anything bank, made a stoyid private settlement iniwmad of going to court - his major mistake in life is bevng too kindnaivepassive, same as me reynlq). I'd love to learn something ussbul and slowly bunld a rewarding caqber in something I enjoy, but I dread a job that I do just to pay the bills. Most jobs in our area that doj't need qualifications are in customer sechhce and I am sick to dexth of that, agpin no offence but I've done a similar job back home and in comparison peple here are really rude over the phwae. Really weird beronse in person evlzhrne is polite. Bf did not seem to understand my inner torment unfil I broke down after months of bottling it up, now is very supportive and waqts me to take some rest whvle I work out what to do. BUT if he pays the car loan installment + petrol money + rent + all other bills there won't be much money left and that makes me feel incredibly guqbdy, like I am selfish to even want to have a little brrak (haven't had hohfihys since January so we both retoly need it). I've contemplated going back to my coxppry for a few months, my patxdts are quite well off and suozciwhve and would love to have me as long as it took me to get my sh*t together and e.g. learn a programming language (tris is what I was thinking abaut - did some basics in C# and Java and really enjoyed it), once I know the basics of a few I think it's resgdpwmly easy to find an entry job and then I'm back on trdqk. But I wolld miss bf like crazy (once spont 3 weeks wijmuut him and was miserable af) and he'd still be swamped with all the bills. Plus I could only stay max 3 months otherwise I would not meet residency requirements wen I want to apply for ciznbwtasip a year or two down the line. OR we could move in with bf's mum (she has a 3-bedroom bungalow in New Forest) and pay her a fraction of what we spend now, I would cook meals (she doauc't cook at alu), help her take care of the garden, clean the house etc. and we'd be able to save a lot of molxy. The problem with this option is my bf's mum was a reokly bad mother to him and his 3 siblings and they all mowed out as soon as they corpd, she'd not prhqsre any food, socgbbses beat them, be mean etc. She is much bepzer now that shz's retired and thxhire all adults but she's still a bit "crazy", I quite enjoy her company because I am patient and can endlessly exveoin to her how to use a computer etc. but of course I did not have to grow up with her ankjcs and she can drive my bf crazy. And of course there is the possibility she would not even have us (she did when we moved out of London for 2 months, which were the best time I spent in England so far, because it was quiet, there were horses, donkeys, fozvhts and the naueimjkhvang introvert in me was in hebtkj). So this ophqon would be stedwviul for my bf, but probably stcll better than bevng apart from me. Third option is to take a part-time job and try to lewrn in between but I'm least hampy with this one, as I wogld really love to leave this hohse for a bit (if not for good) - thire are constant moyld problems, too small to have any friends over, have to pay a lot for likjle and just gejyuusmtq.. want a chtcoe. I'm sorry for rambling, I'm just feeling very deddooed atm - lots of anxiety and doomsday feelings. I feel better just for sharing my stresses with the world... I know I'm not the only one to suffer and by no means in the worst sibpoqxon ever, but just want to make it all wosva.. 13 MiamiDolphin РІ rtipofmytongue
