Moving to another city for wife?

Newly married. Ive been at my current job for 4 years now not great money about $500 weekly. She is making around $650 weekly employed for just a few months. We live in different cities and she wants me to move. We both love each other very much. She insist it will be alright. I have no problems moving. Just I've had this job a while now 4 years in to transfer and loose my seniority? I would take a small pay cut. Is it worth the move? FYI we are both 22 years old.

    You can't build a marriage if you live in separate cities. Why be married if you two are going to continue as you are now? You might be able to find a higher paying job in her city or she could scope out the job market in your city and see if she can find something. It would be a good idea to have a job in the new city, before moving, so you don't have to rely on 1 person's income for weeks or months while the other person job hunts.

    What did you discuss and agree to before you got married? After all, where you live and who would be relocating surely was something you talked about before agreeing to get married, right? What would her job prospects by you be if she were to be the one relocating? Right now she makes 30% more than you do, would she be able to get a job making the same amount in your area? I understand there is a difference in your tenure versus her tenure at the job, but you aren't exactly pulling in a huge paycheck for all that seniority. If your small pay cut is less than $150 a week, it's worth moving.

    I have been married for 28 years. I would only want to be apart from my husband very temporarily and for a short time, he feels the same. I have moved for his jobs 8 times to different cities and states (my work is more portable). To have a marriage and a family it is worth the move.

    Don't you think it's worth a lot more than $500 a week to get to LIVE with your spouse?

    It sounds like a rushed marriage, that should have been decided long before you got married.
