Loves many compromises

February 20th 2008 02:59
We have arrived in Coffs Harbour today. The whole day I have been driving around and around visiting real estate agents and trying to find a rental house for us. The hardest thing is trying to find a place that would allow pets as well, with the rental market so tight at the moment, this seem to be a never ending task.

I think back to my earlier years when I didn't believe in 'sacrificing' for love. Possibly one reason why none of my previous relationships ever worked but I didn't want to compromise on anything that may contradict my own interests.

I look at myself now and see a woman willing to relocate to a place where jobs and houses are hard to find, just so her partner can go to university and prepare for a better future for himself.


I am moving and quitting my job so I can move to Coffs with him.
I am holding off going over to the UK to work (as I've always planned to do before I am 30) so I can be with him during the hardest times of his life.
I am sacrificing not being able to find a job once I am in Coffs Habrour....

I've always been against the traditional roles of women, having to 'follow' their husbands around, having to sacrifice everything so that they can raise a family. I never thought one day I would be doing the same thing, but I suppose when it comes to love, everything is hard to explain.

Although, Will knows perfectly where I stand. I am doing this for him right now, so that later on, he can come with me overseas and still be able to find a job. When he finishes with his degree and is employable outside a factory, we'll be heading over to the UK as planned....

Ah.. What we are willing to do for love....

Wow...what an adventure, Amy! Congrats on your engagement!! -- Been a tad behind my reading here... ...and the move

I think when it's the right person (at the right time), we're pretty much willing to come to a compromise...regardless...

All the best! Look forward to hearing about your adventures.
