How do you all deal with decisions? I needed to make a decision about this job by this morning but haven't called them yet. I'd almost decided but then OH threw into the pot that there's a possibility we'll move into his house (currently rented out though they're leaving sometime within 3 - 12 months) 40 miles away. Means I couldnt' stay at new job - I would struggle to stay at current job though I could work from home occassionally. But then I don't want to be that far from my Mum & Dad (6 miles at mo) as Dasd got Parkinsons and Mum needs help and some relief sometimes! OH's house is at the back of his Dad's who is also not very well and is now very lonely since OH and I moved in together (we're in rented but were looking locally to buy until yesterday!) Then OH drops in that I may be able to be a SAHM if we moved down there (we're not married and he hasn't even proposed yet! I want to be married and stable before little people appear!) so wouldn't need to find a job.

I'm so confused

aww *hugs catt*

Firstly, it sounds like your OH made an 'off the cuff' remark and its possible he hasn't thought about it properly, never mind actually sat down to discuss it with you. Moving is a big decision - not one that he can make and you have to go along with.

Its nice he sees you together in the future with family etc but sounds like he needs a bit of a reality check about the marriage etc. Does he know how important this is to you? Plue that you want to be near elderly family etc. Maybe its time for a chat.

But as far as the job goes, you were all enthusiastic about it before. I don't think any of the plus-points have changed. To answer your question, i think you need to make a decision based on whats right for you NOW. Its good to have 1 eye on the future but you can't put your current life on hold 'just incase'. You never know what oppotunities will come up in the new job plus its always good to have more experience etc.

If you want the job then take it.

Regrets come from things we haven't done or opportunities we didn't take.

Thanks findingmyown way - that has crossed my mind too about doing whats right now. After all it could be Xmas before the house is free and this job will help me pay my debts off within that time.

We're always talking about marriage and children and its def on the cards, I think it was a trying to be helpful remark - and not one that I would be adverse to if we got married before then. Its just all so weird since this time last week when I just saw me sitting here doing my old job!

:wall: I'm sure this is how you're feeling, I don't think any of us can tell you what to do really, is your OH home so you can sit down and have a good chat about it....I would probably take the job tho, as at least you will free up time and cash in the mean-time......You need to grab him and have a good chat about the practicalities etc....Sending you hugs :grouphug: :coffee: and a cuppa.....

Thanks redmel. I know its right for me, but OH (not home - in Bristol until 7ish) thinks I shouldn't bother changing jobs (looks bad etc but in my mind its nota job hop its unavoidable!)

Yes that smilie is exactly how I'm feeling! :wall::wall: :wall: :wall:
