I don't know which is important.But I wouldn't give up one for the other one.Does love and career can't co-exist?It's not fair to give up the wonderful job for somebody who I loved.Love should make us feel happy.If I must give up something I lved for it,it is not love.

career without love is like a blind man having a beautiful
career without love is like a beautiful parents without a child
career without love is like a good student with poor character
career without love is like good religion without god
so love the career and enjoy your career with love

Love and career are both important for me.We cannot live without love. In contrary, we need to have career so that we can be successful in life.But I'd if I'll rank the two of which should be prioritize, my answer would be career. Why? I always wants to be a successful woman. I want to do everything just to be such. For me, career is much important for a person to have when you have a successful career, then love will just follow.

I cannot really choose one over the other. If I have to go for love, my career can suffer badly. If I had to go for career, I might not have time for love.
I think that there should be a balance between both. Most people actually do this. Love and career are not two distinct options that a person should pick over the other. In both ways it is very unhealthy to be choosing one over the other. I'd say having both of them is really essential.
If I had picked up career, well, there is really food on the table and I would not worry much on those financial problems because I had spent the time to earn such money. But I suffer on the aspect of love - if I happen to be in a relationship or marriage, then I could lose my guy to another woman; if I have some children, then they would not really feel that I had not given them enough attention; if I have close friends then they would feel that I don't give them due importance.
The same is true when I choose to pick love. As you had pointed out, love does not bring bread on the table.

ouhg, tough question. I think that LOVE IS WAY MORE IMPORTANT!!!! I think this because love will get you though tough nights and regenerate you spirit. You can slave away at work 60+ hrs a week and kiss your boss's butt all day long, but what good does it profit your soul? We were created to love- Eve was made for Adam because he was lonely. He already had a 'career' so to say, but was LONELY, so Eve was created to COMFORT and LOVE Adam. Even in times that money is tight, or even gone, love is the God given comfort and sustainer. Pertaining to your question though; Love is going to be understanding and not force you to do anything. There is a little think we call COMPROMISE! The true essence of love will not ever make you do anything, even if your or your lovers decision was wrong, the other person will stand by and not point a finger in the other persons face. Love is patient, love is kind,.....etc. These are my opinions on love and two peoples direction in life together.
