Ok, I'm not going to man bash here, just because he's come here giving his honest opinion of his situation of what's going on in his home life. It does sound like everyone is a little quick to judge him because he's bringing up the word divorce, just because she's pregnant, and from another country, but to me, it doesn't sound like she's to interested in doing her part in trying to make this marriage work either. I'm sure that she knew from the beginning, that leaving Africa and moving to a different country, where a different language was spoken meant that she would need to put in serious work to learn a new language so she'd be able to communicate with others in her everyday life, such as doctors, grocery store clerks, banks, not to mention just making friends. Sitting in front of the T.V. on a daily basis and not even having conversations with your partner, isn't trying to fit in to your new life. There are times when people from different countries marry, and once one person moves to the new country, they will try to make it work for a time, but find they just can't get over being home sick. They are so depressed, they usually end up leaving to return to their home country. That's completely understandable, but it doesn't even sound like this young woman has even tried to make a go of things. So, at this point, I would say that maybe the best thing is that she return home. It sounds like she would be much happier there. Sit down and talk with her honestly about the situation. Ask her what she is feeling, and if this is what she is thinking. Ask her to give you honest feedback. Tell her that your not upset and you just want the best for her and the baby. And if that means that she wants to go back home to live, then that's what you want for her to. Hopefully I gave you an unbiased opinion. And I hope that I didn't offend anyone else, that wasn't my intention.
