if an opportunity comes your way..like for example a job offer outside the country would you be willing to sacrifice your long term-relationship with that?

It might be really nice to have a great job offer but staying away from your love is the most painful feeling.I will never leave behind my true love for any job in this world.My love is away fro 2-3 days and I am already missing him like crazy.

For me, I really don't like that but there are instances that you may never know what will happen. Depending on situation. There are times that when an opportunity comes and you have to leave your love ones for awhile because I believe in love and love can really wait.

no, i can't. what life i need is a happy life, so what happiness for me? it is simple. i can live together with my lover forever. i dont' believe long distance love. because i can't do that. i need a suitable job, too. if i'm happy, then i feel i must find a good job, because i have a good mood. besides, there are so many ways to earn money, so i dont' have to work outside my coutry. then i will miss my parents very much.

Hm, I guess I will...because I believe that if you are really in love and meant for each other, you can still keep the relationship even if you are separated across oceans. And besides, i'll plan to take him with me if i've already established myself there and it wouldn't take longer than a year for me to take my partner with me outside the country and we will settle happily there.

I would never give up a true love for any job, I often think I wonder what their thinking giving up the most wonderful thing you get in life, to me a job is a job, love is something to be treasured.

if that happens i would talk to the my partner first and ask for a compromise. if he could wait for me then there would be no problem.

There is no way I would give up my partner for a job prospect. If there was no way to negotiate so that we could move together and continue our lives in close proximity, I don't think I could take the job. I would carry on working within Australia and loving my partner. Even moving interstate, if it meant permanently living apart from my partner, I would rather not be promoted and even risk being fired and seeking employment elsewhere in my city. What do you think you would do, Jazmin?
