Hi Aphrodite thank you for posting this!
I just want to know how people feel about this topic? My sister and her husband met 10+ years ago in college. He was an Engineering student and she started MED degree. A few years into the relationship, they were so much in love and decided to tie the knot. He had graduated and had a good job, while she was still in school. They bought a house and were very happy. (At least it seemed so, my sister and I were close and I was aware of all the little differences they had, but felt that their relationship was an ideal one. They both gave me the best advice about my own relationships. A few years ago, my broter-in-law was offered a great opportunity in another State a few hours away from home. After giving it a lot of thought, they both agreed to move there. She was able to continue doing research and go to school while he worked. Although she was happy and loved him dearly, she never adjusted and kept wanting to move back. She finally gave him an ultimatum (ouch!) and moved back to her hometown where she was offered a teaching job while she did research for her MED degree. He begged her to stay and yet wasn't ready to give up his job and start over.
How could that be? How could you be so in Love with someone to wanna spend the rest of your lives together and let a career choice put an end to a marriage.
Please share your thoughts and similar experiences!!
