I guess that's what love is all about. Do you base where you will be living solely on where you can receive the highest salery? Would you accept a job in an area where your wife could not find a job in her chosen field? I hope you answered 'no'. I think it is a dangerous thing to ask a partner to sacrifice too much, even if they are willing at the time. Love is about finding a way for both of you to have a fulfilling life. -- +-------------------------------------------------------+ | General Disclaimer: The above opinions are my own and | | do not necessarily reflect the opinions | | of McDonnell Douglas Corporation. | +-------------------------------------------------------+ PKW hplabs!oliveb!tymix!whitehur
