This one is really hard! I've been married twice, and both were disasters. On the other hand, I've only really been in love once in my life (didn't marry that one!) and it was absolutely wonderful. If I could feel that feeling one more time--and THEN be faced with the decision to give up my career--I would do it in a heartbeat!

On the other hand (wait--is that 3 hands now?)--my career is not very fulfilling. I would jump ship now if I could afford to do so.

I now agree with you. Love first and then build on career. But sometimes love relationships may hurt one's career advancement

career

When i am confront anted with such choice though it would put me in trance, i would rather choose career over love. since if someone loves you for sure it can wait for as long as it would take.

I would choose love over my career. I can always look for a job anytime and work about my career but we cannot always find true love everyday.

At this stage in my life, I would have to choose love. BUT that's because I'm married (just passed 15th anniversary) and have a child. Once you find the person you're going to spend the rest of your life with, they come first.

To anyone who hasn't found their soul mate yet, I would say concentrate on developing yourself and your career. That way, when you do find love, you'll be better set up for success and you won't have wasted time.

What a dilemma! I pray I should never be in such a position to choose between my love and my career. Having a successful career without the one you love around you creates a vaccum and loneliness. I will choose love because an opportunity for my career will always spring up later.

Hmmm, it's a difficult choice. I think it depends on what you want for your life.
I'd pick career simply because it sets most of the conditions to make the love/relationship/marriage work. I'm a Christian so I'll say this, when God made Adam, He gave him his assignment/work before Eve came along...with that said, some people are able to build both love and career at the same time...So, it still depends on the individual. Thank you!

I would definitely pick love. True love comes around rarely and should be hung onto. Grant it I have never had to make a choice like that so really it is just in theory.

I'll go with career. I wanna be financially independent. There are lots of people who chose love but ended up smashed ? broken. Not to mention others who are still a slave of love despite the hurt they are getting from their partners. I choose to be financially stable than a miserable fool in love. ?

It will not be considered as a post but a spam. What I mean to say is, it's not counted.

Love can wait but opportunity can't. If love exist for the both of you must wait for the right time without choosing without choosing the wrong path.

i will definitely find a way to balance the both but if situation arises where my career is really having a negative effect on my love life i will have to reconsider and take drastic measures

very well said, i love your sincerity
