You already agreed in the beginning to relocate with him. It is not like he is just bringing the issue from nowhere.

And your business was doing well in Lagos, you moved to PH and it was still doing well, what makes you think it won't do better when you relocate?

Also, for your children's future, your future, for a better outcome, life, etc, relocating is a good idea.

You just have to make up your mind to push your business when you get there.

The other option is to stay behind while your husband moves and stays over there while you have a distant marriage and you both will be visiting each other.

OP it depends on the country you guys are planning to relocate to. Since you said he’s trying to work with you on finding which country is better to move to, look towards the western countries. I don’t know a thing about the UK but if you find a way to move to the USA or Canada, please do.

Don’t worry about being a housewife. That won’t happen. Not while he’s still trying to find his footing as well. You’ll have to work.

Your skill is in high demand. I order my native outfits from my secondary school mate who lives in Canada and this Yomi Casual guy who lives in Nigeria because I haven’t met any Nigerian dress makers here where I live( hardly any Nigerians in this area). You will have plenty of opportunity to sell your work. Even non-Africans are getting obsessed with african outfits. They’ll buy from you.
The downside is that it might take you a while to be able to establish it on a large scale like you have in port harcourt considering that you’ll have to pay your workers fair wages by American standards which isn’t easy. Therefore you’ll have to run a one woman show for a while. But it’s doable. Believe in yourself.

As an alternative, You can keep it as a hobby while you work a ‘regular’ job if that’s what your situation comes to. Not saying everything will be perfect especially in the beginning but with time you’ll develop your routine and I don’t think you’ll regret moving.

As Gboyegad said, just make sure y’alls path to immigration is clear so your family won’t end up being stranded. Not being able to work or have the permission to run a business. Then it will be really difficult.

If you really are a fashion designer who knows her onions, you will thrive abroad. Nothing to worry about after all everything is online these days.

Boyfriends, do not drive your girlfriends to anger lest they turn to other guys for love; but in love and money sharing, draw them closer to you.

Humble yourself, therefore, under the mighty control of your girlfriend, so that in due time, she will agree to marry you and thus, exalt you.

Don't say you weren't advised ooh

hahaha ok na! I had to sleep early! Early to bed early to rise, make a man healthy and wise

Anyway,

Olosho and baby mama's I have not but this advice I have I give to my girlfriend be contented with what I have.

If my opinion is anything to go by, I will advice what I call structured relocation.

Structured in the sense that he goes first, finds his footing then you move with him at a later date.

One good thing about your business is that you can still engage in it over there. Good luck with whichever choice you end up making.
