But what says that my instincts are wrong, and I end up making the biggest mistake of my entire life. Oh, and to make matters even worse, he just told me today that he has been offered his dream job but it would require him to permanently move to New Orleans for it. He has no problem with that, but I most definatley do...I have too much here, EVERYTHING in fact. I just couldn't even begin to think about leaving all of that behind for the rest of my life. He is upset because he told me that he wouldn't leave if I wasn't going with him, because I'm more important. I feel like I'm holding him back from his career, which technically I am because I don't want to leave home. How do you compromise on a situation as serious as that?
