If faced with an opportunity where you will be given a very attractive opportunity in a distant place but this will possibly endanger your present relationship which would you prefer? Your opinion please....

Some of the richest men in the world would give their fortunes up for a chance at true love. If you have a healthy relationship that makes you happy, no amount of money in the world would ever replace that. Not only that, but in today's economy jobs come and go. You could be giving up a great relationship for a boss that would fire you in a matter of months.

It's a tough decision, but I'm of the mind that career opportunities come and go. If one option doesn't fit in with your lifestyle, find one that does. Even if you have children to think about, ask yourself how much will this new opportunity take you away from your children. Sometimes its better to accept a lower salary so you can enjoy the people you love. Jobs are supposed to be a way to provide a life, they are not meant to become your life.

I definitely agree with you PhillyDreamer :D. Very well said! We shouldn't mistake the true and greater value of our relationships over career.

I am in such a position .. I still have a child .. It's hard, but sometimes life is like that and we have to accept ..If I could choose, it would be different.

i think if this is the case, i would choose to go for the career. though career does not give us the security as it should make us feel... it is the same with love too and often times we get disappointed by our love more than everything else in our lives combined.. career, or family, school etc. Nothing beats a broken heart because of our hearts and love being betrayed. I think in this case, my perfect and would only be choose is career and see if i can take my "love" in to where my career is, where it is.

If given this very attractive opportunity to work in a distant place with the possibility to endanger my present relationship, first and foremost I have to ask and pray for the wisdom of God and seek guidance of my parents with this condition because in the first place they are also my beloved next to God. However, I should have my final decision but I make sure nobody is to be blamed and be hurt. But, if given a chance I have to accept this opportunity because I know everything will follow smoothly for both of us my parents and maybe to my present relationship with his understanding and sincere respect of love for each other.
