Contrary to modern day Christianity, when it comes to God's will for a life partner, I strongly suggest some serious fasting, not just from coffee like a lot of youngsters do nowadays but from food, electronics, social life and going out. Just take time off for a week to lock yourself in the room and only go out of the room to drink water or to the toilet. I would seriously pray about this because it's a lifelong decision and the second most important decision in our lives (the first being our salvation). In fact, during that time off, I even suggest not taking to each other until that period of fasting is over so as not to be too bias or affected emotionally. If God says no, breaking up is most difficult. My sister did this and realized it was not God's will and had to break up with a guy she was with for 7 years and it was awful.
It's not up to either of you nor is it our place to advice you. You both need to pray and seek the Lord for guidance on this. The Lord has led us as a family from one place to another. There is a time to move and there is a time to stay put. Ask the Lord for guidance. Also, submission to your husband and saving your marriage is more important than money. How to Pray: Both of you, go to a room, whether alone or together, close your eyes, ask God to give you guidance on whether to move or stay, and ask Him for a book, chapter and verse. Then wait for it with eyes closed. Wait for the book, chapter number and verse number. Read the whole chapter anyway, including the key verse. It's hard the first few times but you'll get it over time, do it everyday as devotion. Get a notebook or Google Drive to write down what God is saying. Then match your verse and understanding with his. After a few days, you kind of know where this is going.
