So me and my partner have been together 6 years, engaged for 3, baby girl who is now 19 months old.
Living situation me and my daughter live with my parents but my partner lives on his RAF Base / his parents on a weekend when he comes home ( Friday to Sunday ).
We put an application form in for RAF Base Housing months ago. Nothing thinking we would be offered one due to not being married yet.
Yesterday ( Monday ) we got an email to say we have been offered a 3 Bed house. The only issue is we are currently in gloucester, but the house on the base we have been offered is 2 hours away from home / work / nurseries for me.
I’ve been wanting to leave my current job for a while now as it’s slowly just getting worse and enjoyable anymore.
I’ve told my parents and they’ve said there happy for me to move out the only concern they have is the distance off the house we have been offered which I completely agree with.
I don’t know how I feel about being that far away from my family…
What would you do in my situation?

I feel like it’s worth the move if you don’t like your job and your baby is a little older now. It will be good for you all to live together as a family. If it doesn’t work out I’m sure your parents would welcome you back immediately but maybe just be honest with everyone about your concerns x
