The Saga of Steve and Debbie

This could be very interesting.

I have a couple of good friends (Steve and Debbie) who are going through a "thing." I've asked if they would mind me sharing their situation and progress with my readers, because they have an interesting story, an interesting problem - and we can probably learn something from how they're handling it.

I'll mix updates about their situation in throughout various posts, just so we can see how things are progressing.

First some background. Steve and Debbie have been married less than 5 years and have a nice home, and no kids. Several months ago, Steve got transferred for work, and loves his new city and his new job. Steve is happy, happy, happy. The problem is, Debbie isn't.

She isn't necessarily unhappy with Steve, or with her marriage, but she doesn't care for where they live and she hasn't found a job since they've arrived. Her sense of purpose is being challenged, and she's afraid she'll lose ground in the job market if she's out of work too long.

The situation is starting to cause some tension in their relationship. Debbie is openly down and Steve is starting to get frustrated with her. Tomorrow I'll tell you how they're handling this - but what are your thoughts?

Stay in touch -

Mark
