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've 2 grandkids (another on the way), 2 daughters & all my other family living w/in 10 miles.I've been offered a "dream job" overseas for 3 yrs that would include lots of travel,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've 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 alsoencourages me to go if I feel its right.You can't get back time away from loves ones,yet I'm not sure if this is what I need for me.

- what you need to do is push away the opinions of everyone and think what do you want. no body can tell you what to do you have to decide that on your own. one piece of advice i can give you is dont ever settle for something just to make someone else happy. i hope this helped a little good luck im sure you'll make a great decision
