If I remember correctly she has an established job and family in the area. Why should she be forced to move? You guys are making it seem like she should drop everything and move whenever Matt wants to go. Should they be on the same page? Sure, but this isn't the 50s she's allowed to say no.

No one said she can't say no. "Refuses to relocate" was what he said and the absolution of it is what people are reacting to. What if he got his dream job but it required relocation? You'd at least want a spouse that's willing to have the discussion... which, based on his most recent post, makes it sounds like they did.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
