Basically gf wants a house in a good school district and to have a house that appreciates.
There’s not much between where she works and where I work. Our work place is 50 miles apart. And she’s been looking at houses closer to her area. Which roughly have been 42 miles away from my work place. I have to go into work every day and she commutes twice per week.
I absolutely don’t want to leave my job and she’s a bit more flexible.
She’s taking the loan out for both of us and she wants me to be financially fine in the future too. She’s been crunching the numbers and doing a lot of the work in the house process.
The thought of breaking up kills me on the inside but the commute just sounds like it’ll kill me on the inside. Idk if it’s sustainable in the long term since I saw what it did to my dad.
40 minutes in the morning only if I leave before 6:00 am. And at least 1 hr back if I leave before 4. But basically, I’ve been waking up 4:30 in the morning for the past year.
TLDR; my heart hurts. She wants a house in a good school district but there’s really nothing between where she works and where I work. And our work places are 50 miles apart. My commute will probably be 42 miles one way. I don’t know what to do.
