So are you saying that all expats are young, single dudes? I am an expat and I see mostly older, experienced, married guys. It really isn't that hard to be an expat. There are commuting contracts that you can get. There are nice places to move your family as well. If your spouse supports your career then it shouldn't be a problem. If the spouse doesn't support your career choice then that is another matter. Mine supports it and the lifestyle it gives her and accepts the 3 weeks away at a time.

All I'm saying is don't rule it out just because you are married.
