It is an interesting article, although I’d say sites like this one are proof that things in the ANR world doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom. The two people who shared their stories in this certainly have had some dead ends, but there’s light at the end of the tunnel. And with the right planning and a committed like-minded partner, anyone can have a truly successful ANR. Really it all comes down to who you meet, how compatible you are, and exactly what each of you wants or needs from this lifestyle to feel comfortable and satisfied.
