My dilemma...?

I met a girl 1.5 years ago, who has turned out to be my soul mate. We are so good together that people can tell we belong with each other.

Last year, I had to transfer to another city for my job. My new location is over 300 miles away from her.

We talk on the phone all the time, but I can only see her on holiday weekends when I can take a few days off and make the long trip to be with her.

I don't want to lose her, but I can't just give up my job just to move back to her state. These days, if you have a good steady job, it's unwise to roll the dice and give it up just to move back.

So here is my dilemma...should I try to find another job that's closer to her or should we risk continuing our long-distance relationship?

    Having a good job that ptovides your needs is pretty rare these days, so best hang on to that.

    Long Distance relationships (LDR's are not always successful but often do work if both partners are determined.

    Why not consider SKYPE which could bring you closer together OR perhaps look for a job your UNI that your GF could be happy with in your state.

    My husband worked 300 miles away for years

    he would come home weekends and often would "pop" home through the week if he had an afternoon off

    300 miles really isnt a lot these days, 5hr drive

    if she really is your soul mate, you wouldnt even think about 300 miles

    leaving a job is foolish in these times

    Ask her to marry you.
