Hey Regan, I'm sure I will love it too!!! Anywhere but here.
I will miss some aspects of life here but I can't wait to actually go swimming at the beach. Darwin has 94% humidity on the best of days and there is no relief.....only aircon. I have been to Brisbane in the summer and it is alot cooler. Sad to hear about your situation, but you have done all you can and the rest is out of your hands. If Nick desides to go, all you can do is make sure that Ruben has regular contact with his daddy and that he knows that he loves him. Even though it looks like he doesn't care, he has to. Ruben is his son. He is just being selfish and thinking about himself, something guys seem to do pretty well. Plus because you guys aren't together as a couple it makes for a difficult situation...not siding with him at all. He should stay to be with his son but obviously his thinking only about himself and his comfort which is slack, what will happen will happen. ALl you can do is be a good Mummy to Ruben and shower him with love and affection. Don't worry, it will work out.
