This is not meant to be a "DAE" post, but I'm wondering how to maintain good relationship qualities in a traditional way when you and your man are isolated. In our case, we live abroad and work. Maybe there are other RPW who live abroad like us, or who live in remote circumstances?

I want to be able to be the best wife I can be without driving my husband crazy, but we don't have many people to interact with outside our marriage at the moment. Family doesn't contact us, either, despite Skype and other instant communication services being available.

I'm finding it hard to maintain happiness in our home life when we're not getting out much.

Have any of you been in a similar situation?
