Things have been so good and still are only now I'm lonely. I love our relationship but we do not have any friends. Lately I have been missing my family and friends so much. I would give anything to be in Ireland partying with my girlfriends and my family. I used to be the biggest party girl now we just sit in and watch tv all weekend. I've asked him to move to Ireland but the industry he is in is not big in Ireland. I miss my family and friends so much but cannot bare the thought of leaving him. I'm so stuck

You really need to take up some social hobbies, a sport, a martial art, a book club. You also need to start dating each other again, going for dinners, go for long drives to random places, going surfing, you know living life.
You seem to be in a social rut and of course you're going to miss home because you could just effortlessly slip into the scene again and have great craic, but you have to build that from scratch in Oz because you may not actually be homesick just lonely and bored.
Kitty you're in Australia there's tonnes to do there, most places have a fairly decent night-life too. Start getting out there and having fun. Go to the local zoo, go on a fishing trip, get in a cage with sharks, start experiencing everything you can possibly can instead of sitting in all weekend watching TV.

 Hi Kitty,
Plan a holiday back home and visit your friends and family, take boyfriend as well if you want so they can meet him. A holiday will get you out of the rut. Also try gaining some hobbies, it is important to get out of the house and enjoy yourselves still. Maybe go to the local gym or church or take a toastmasters coarse. Grow yourself and gain friends that way.
