Plan?

hmmm...still bothered by the 5-year plan, friends worried about me being different thing. Had a long chat to M (me mostly talking she mostly listening) and feeling a bit better. Still trying to figure out if you're meant to hang around for Mr Right and babies or if you have to help it along in some way. Have friends who have done both. Hanging around certainly works if you're young and have time but I have neither youth nor time (depending on what medical journals you read and which department your friends in the NHS work in...).

Anyway have come up with a vague plan. Think it is going to mean the end of the boy tho. Bit sad about that but have to be realistic about it. Plan goes along the lines of:

1) dump boy
2) get on internet
3) date
4) marriage to American Catholic who wants to live in UK (preferably very financially self-sufficient and gorgeous)
5) leave current company and move to UK
6) have UK babies and be a stay-at-home mum for a few years.

Only problem is the boy. Don't really want to get rid of him but is at completely different stage in life to me. The degree is over next year but is then 5 years of PhD to go! (and of course he wants to stay in US for that).

Also bit worried that I will lose other US mates that are his mates when the dumping happens...
