*~*~ QOTD 1/5/10*~*~ WORK

Good morning Ladies

Because of my major, Alot of the jobs that I apply for will probably require me to
1 train in another state for 6 months or more...or 2 move to another state

If FH'S Job relocated him would you consider packing up your family and moving to another state if you had to and would FH move with you wherever you had to move to? Also would you have a problem with FH leaving for 6months-1yr for the betterment of his career?

Last year we moved to Philly so he can start school here, so yes, I would go anywhere if it meant that FH could better his career and our future. I think thats a major turning point in a relationship...if I wasn't willing to go, he definitely would have doubted how dedicated I am to our relationship. As far as if he had to leave for 6mo - 1 year and I couldn't go with him, I wouldn't have a problem either...I don't believe in standing in someone's way bc in the end, I wouldn't want him to regret anything bc I said no - its not fair to him. I think it would just backfire and he would hold a grudge against me. During FH's last year of school, he will be away for 5 months of the year, so although I'm not thrilled about the idea, I know that he is doing it so that we can have a better life, so its worth the sacrafice now.

Very well said I totally agree

I wouldn't really have a problem moving locations FH's job required it. My company actually has offices in about 12 different areas of the country so if anything I could transfer to a different office.

But we both have the kind of jobs where it's very unlikely that we'd be asked to move locations.

I love this question since I thought I was one of the only ones getting married and going through this! nice to know i'm not!

Fortunately this isn't an issue for us. FH got tenured for teaching last year so he is good to go in his district for the duration of his career.

My job really only succeeds in major cities and NY has some of the best agencies in the world so moving for my career would never be an issue.

It was something that came up in FH's last relationship - and in the end it was one of the things that broke them apart.

BUUT if it did come down to this being something to deal with - I would move for him and I know he would do the same. It wouldn't be an easy decision but if it were to help our relationship I know we would both be willing.

I'd actually like to pack up and move somewhere else!! I think I'd have better career opportunities elsewhere. But with the FH being a NYC firefighter, we can't even move to Jersey!
And as much as I'd like to say that I would be supportive of my husband if he had to leave for a period of time to advance career wise, I don't think I'd like the idea. I don't know how my brave girls deal with their significant others being deployed and in the military. You gals are amazing for dealing with that!

Absolutely, FH can get a job anywhere with his profession. If anything, I'd be the one having difficulty finding a career.


FH and I have talked about moving if we could make more money in our careers. I just dont want to leave our families

FH isnt a momma's boy. In fact, he's far from it! But he has absolutely no issue leaving his fam....

Weird....

Very well said....I did pick up and move my life...FH and I moved to Atlanta Ga, last April from NY. He recieved a job promotion that would have been insane to turn down ..so we decided it would be best for us in the future to make the move .so we did. Although it is unbearably hard to be away from my family and so far away from everything i know...I could not imagine not living with FH and i know FH is only doing this to give me a wonderful life
