I was wondering too why a 39 year old woman is living with her in-laws. Of course I don't know her story.
From my experience it is not a good idea to step outside of your background. What do I know - I married people with a similar background to mine and I have bellied up twice.
My first husband married someone way different than him and my second husband whom has a Master's degree is in love with a high school graduate with a laundry list of problems.
