I'd really have to do a lot of analyzing for this one.

First, I would look at the relationship side of the problem. I'd have to know how serious my relationship is and if if has the potential to get more serious. In this day and age, love, and I mean true love, doesn't come easily. And, I don't know if I'd be willing to give that up so quickly. Money isn't everything. Also, I'd have to consider why my man won't come with me. If he has some vested interest in the town where we are, like a sick family member or a business he owns.

Then, I'd have to look at the job side. If the only reason that I want to go is for the money, then I'd probably stay. Money isn't everything and my happiness is worth more than whatever the new company would be offering me. If this was my dream job, or a major promotion, like from cashier to store owner, then I might have to go. And finally, I'll see exactly how far away it is. If it's anything less than three hours, then there would be no conflict between it and my relationship. Me and my man could see each other as often as we wanted to.

Ultimately, I would have to weigh my reasons to stay against my reasons to go. Whichever side has more, wins. Knowing me, I'd probably take the job and still try to make my relationship work.
