Job offer overseas - Hard choice for personal reasons-Your thoughts?
I'm a 47 yr old single woman in a serious relationship with a great guy.I have 2 grandkids (another on the way), 2 daughters and all my other family living within 10 miles.The problem is I have been offered a "dream job" overseas for 3 yrs that would include lots of travel, am guaranteed my current job back when I return,all housing expenses pd for,extra $ for cost of living, &be in a beautiful area of the world to work & live in.The problem is leaving my partner & my family.I've felt something was missing that I needed to do for a long time & even though I have more than most in my life,I feel real antsy and seem to keep constantly looking for something.If I went, it would be my first time alone.By going I'm not sure I would lose more than I would gain or if it would make me stronger & be something good.My boyfriend can't go now & he has asked me to stay & build a life here but also encourages me to go because it sounds good if I need to.Is having something great worth risking?

- You got to go for it Woman. If you dont, you will always wonder and blame others for putting you off. If you have a stable relationship it will work. If you dont have one, then whats holding you back?
