Your company will never care about you as much as your SO will (if she's really the right one). Your job will not be there to experience life with you. In fact, your company might just use you up and spit you out and then you'll be w/o your cool job AND alone.
It's all about priorities, man. My SO (Primal) and I have made career choices that allowed us to spend the most time with each other, and we haven't ever regretted it.
Primal went to Med School for 2 years and during that time he realized that life as a doctor would mean very little time for us and he met many, many divorced and unhappy doctors. He decided it just wouldn't be worth it, so he withdrew from med school. It was a hard choice, his whole family was upset with him. But you have to look at what is really important to you and what it would take to make you happy.
