I would have said this a few years ago but...if one cannot support oneself adequately then the best relationship in the world can crumble to dust.

That doesn't make any sense. If you're broke and have no money, how can you enjoy being in a relationship with a great partner?

Uhm...a really good and secure job or the love of your life but no assurance you will find any job and no security.

Seems like neither the job nor the relationship can be guaranteed to work out for as long as you want nor make you happy as long as you would want so....that is a tough one!

Can the love of your life relocate to your dream job location?

why does it have to be one extreme or the other?

you can find a job even if its a menial job doing something, at the same time you can find a person who is great where youre at....

I would probably take a good partner and a crap job rather than a good job and a crap partner...

you say "whats the point if youre struggling to make ends meet?" but in my mind a good partner would understand that and the struggle wouldnt be just yours alone it would be both of yours...

No, the job is permanent, pension, benefits, everything.

Love of your life cannot really relocate.

hmm....The job could still not work out but let's say you would happily have it the rest of your life.....How long have you known the person and how long have they been the love of your life?

Like Butterbean said, there are no guarantees.

God forbid, you could lose your job, or it could change and no longer be a great job, or employer could go under, etc.

God forbid, partner could leave, cheat, become crippled, go insane, die.

No guarantees in life, except for death and taxes.    :'(

Many years ago I chose my career over my then partner.  It was one of the biggest mistakes I ever made—maybe the biggest!  I ruined two lives: his and mine.  If I had it to do over again, I would have done things very differently.  I have since moved on and found loving domesticity with someone else, but you never forget the one that got away.  :'(

Finding the person you really belong with is hard; finding satisfying work is relatively easy.

I don't think finding satisfying work is relatively easy. Far from it...if you don't have a good job, your entire relationship can suffer.

women leave men everyday because the man is "too busy making money / working / building a career "

You sound like you're inferring women stick around for money no matter if they are dissatisfied  ....  and .... we cost men money

you keep harping on this do you think that the person youre with is as great as you think them to be if you believe this?

to me a good partner is there for you no matter what and shares your burdens same as you share theirs. I think youve answered the question already and are looking for reassurance, obviously this person isnt worth it to you so why not let it go and let her find someone else and you can as well?

you are right to a point.

Poor communication
Financial problems
A lack of commitment to the marriage
A dramatic change in priorities
Infidelity

Wanna bet?

I have quite a few friends who've left their husbands...
...or have lost their wives due to the pursuit of money.

I think the basic premise if flawed. I don't think the two need be mutually exclusive.
There's nothing that say's you can't have both a loving relation and a satisfying lucrative profession.

Everything in moderation

I think what mal was saying is that if you lose one woman but still have money another woman is going to be right behind her...

Miggy, I think you're wrong there. A woman will follow a man worthy of the attention and who has something to offer. If he has nothing of value to offer a woman, ...his only drawing card will be money.
If on the other hand he has alot to offer, but is penniless, ...the women will be attracted to something other than money.

Problem is, alot of men (and I'm not saying YOU are guilty of this), but alot of men take what I call the lazy approach to attracting women. They flash the cash, and then complain that the only kind of women they're attracting are gold-diggers. HELLO?! Whereas, if they had put something else forward, they would attract the kind of woman who wants that something else that they've put forward.

Another ironic dichotomy is that alot of men only find themselves attracted to the type of woman who is only interested in money, while by-passing others not at all interested in money... then complain. Go figure.  ::)
