[c=#4C0073] OK, guys I need help. I don't know what to do, and it's driving me crazy! My fiance' and I have been fighting for about 3 months over where we are going to live. He has a really good job in Colorado and a 2 bedroom apartment there. Our children and I have a 3 bedroom house in Louisiana (family owned). Plus, I have a really good career and a lot of connections in Louisiana. My career is transferable, but I haven't been able to find a good job there. I have a lot of education and certifications in the fields of Education, Behavioral Health, and Paralegal Studies. But, I only have work experience in the field of Behavioral Health and volunteer experience in the field of Education. I was just offered a position in the school system here that would be a big step towards allowing me the freedom to further my education, better pay, and allow me more time with our children. The problem is he doesn't want to move back here because, his career really isn't transferable and my family is a bit overbearing. Our relationship itself has been pretty chaotic in the past, but I can't deny that he has really changed and is undeniably committed. Even when we are at odds, we always end up right back in-sync. After 8 years I don't see us anywhere but together. I love him more than life itself, but I don't want to regret this either. [/c]

Well, logistically it's a nightmare if you both intend to continue in your current careers.
Since neither of you wants to go to the other !

So. You either have to get together and go someplace new. Thus starting your new lives together !
or, one of you is gonna have to bite the bullet and go to the other, and risk losing out on where you are now......

timing, as they say. Is everything in life !

@VioletRayne: Not that my two cents is worth taking into consideration, but. If you have youngsters and they're in school; and happy in their environment. Not sure i'd want to upset all that.
Grown ups can change and adapt, youngsters often find it difficult. Especially if it means they'll be away from all they know.

@Picklebobble2: [c=#4C0073]Yeah, That's what I've been thinking too.[/c]
