Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
^ I think it is important that you do.
Moving to a different country is a major change in your lifestyle. Some ppl adapt to it and some don't. If you are not happy due to the change then it could have significant affect on your relationship with your husband and everyone involved. My advice to all girls would be to step back and THINK before you move. I know marriage could be very exciting but there is a life ahead of you. Be realistic.

More over prepare youself by actually leaving your house and standing on your own two feet before you get married.
Re: leaving ur parents… and sibs
TRUE
Who’s moving to a different country??
Re: leaving ur parents… and sibs
hmm really?
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
Fayz, I won't be moving to a different country :-)
And ofcourse I've thought about it, I just don't want to because I start worrying about my parents. I've decided that I want to be close to them (geographically) when I get married and move out.
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
Im probably going to regret saying this some day, but i personally cannot wait to leave home!! fortunately via a job not a marriage.
Re: leaving ur parents… and sibs
Good for you 
I’m happy to hear that.
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
I live 3-4 minutes walking distance from my parents .. I'm lucky I know but he had to leave his back home.
Sadz, are you leaving town/country after marriage?
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
a few months? i thought at least a yr..or close to a year?
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
Those girls who can live close by their parents are soooooooooooooooooooooooo lucky. I guess it's something you appreciate once your farrrrrr from them. Saadia, tum bahut hi lucky ho and Shinoo, wise thinking darling :)
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
hehe....when i was getting married , many ppl used to say how lucky i am as both of us are from same city ...(not more than 10 min. drive) but i had to leave the country with hubby ....
its been 6+ years now .....n i can't cope with it if i anm not tooooo busy .....bless my kids who don't let me have any time to get drowned in my homesick tears
n Alhamdulillah .....i get to see them once an year ...n sometimes even twice!!
khayr i'm ok .....now i usually get depressed thinking of my younger sis ....who got married few months back ...n now is alone in another country.....i really really miss her !!!
Re: leaving ur parents... and sibs
I think maybe parents might be glad their kids leave home too :) When the kids move out, they can put themselves first, enjoy each other, travel at the drop of a hat, have financial freedom. Especially since now they are probably at a time of life that they are financially secure so they have so much freedom about what to do, where to go.
But I wonder how desi parents deal with their kids leaving because for them, for decades they have identified themselves as mom and dad first, man and woman second. I guess many would be depressed.
