Hi newlywed, welcome to PC! I would underline what Vickie said about his happiness not being your responisibility. Sure, we can do things that we KNOW will make others happy or unhappy. But in the big picture, as mature adults, we each have to learn how to take responsibility for our own emotions.

One thought I had, not knowing your circumstances, is that maybe it would be easier for you - being in the health care field - to relocate than it would be for your husband? The current job situation is much more difficult on construction workers than for people in the health care field. So maybe that is something you two can think about and discuss?

Doesn't make me feel better, no meaning to me for sure.
Can't stop you from praying and blessing me,
and if that makes you feel better feel free.
But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me.
And let's all respect each other's feelings.
With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."
Thanks for this!
