We've just bought our first house together alongside her being in her dream job and I've just landed the job I've always wanted. It's worked out pretty damn amazing if I'm honest.
Yet I miss home, not enough to come home and my life quality would likely be worse at this moment in time if we did, but I do.
I miss family, especially my nephew and niece. My grandparents are older so they can't come down to visit and it's not the same on the phone. I miss my mates too who all have their own lives now too. Most of all I miss Hibs. None of these are enough to bring me home.
I love Scotland and I miss it but I just have made a choice which is the right choice for my partner and I, which improves my life quality.
I am however, sick of meeting Scots here who say "oh I've not been home in years, I left cos it's ****, I would never go back".
I usually shut them up by just saying "I ****ing love Scotland mate. I moved for work". Watch their face drop when you say that. [emoji23]
