This week’s dilemma is about a husband who works overseas – and the effects this is having on his family here in Australia.

Rachel’s husband went to work in Dubai three years ago. In the first year, she says he’d visit the family once every three months – and she’d go there once a year, taking the children with her.

But that’s since trickled down to spending just six days with the children – over the last two years.

Rachel says he went there in the hope of earning more money for the family – but now she fears he’s found a new life over there.

She’s tried to arrange several meetings with him in Singapore – the halfway point – but he always comes up with excuses as to why he can’t make it. On one occasion he said he was too sick to make it.

Rachel doesn’t know what’s happening to their marriage – and it isn’t being made any easier by the fact that they can’t meet up to discuss it. He keeps telling the kids he’ll see them soon, but that so far hasn’t happened.

He keeps promising the kids he’ll see them, but hasn’t.

Rachel feels as though her life has been put on hold…and is needing some resolution.
