Ok dudes n dudettes listen up, I have a dilemma
*insert scary music here*
Ok...so heres the drill. Ive been offered a job in Bahrain, Middle East (where I was before) for 10 weeks, possibly a year if I excel, in that 10 weeks I would earn roughly $12,000 with no tax - so imagine what I would end up earning in a year. Some unruly figure that would mean id be able to come back to Australia, buy a car, apartment and get another sort of job and be able to live comfortably for a while. It sounds perfect doesnt it.
Its not...I love Steve (my man) , I dont think I could bear to be away from him for that long. It sounds so pathetic, im going to talk to him about it tonight - I have to make the decision by tomorrow morning. Id be leaving on the 18th of November, which is in 2 weeks.
I just dont know what to do, a part of me really wants to go, as I know I need the money...another part of me wants to stay with my boyfriend. I might go for those 10 weeks, and not take up the job for a year, or somehow, find a job for Steve over in Bahrain for a year as well - although something tells me he wouldnt be prepared to pack andup and leave. Im used to it, Im used to leaving people behind. Its just I actually have the choice whether I want too or not...and its eating me up inside.
I'd wait for him, I mean...I wouldnt cheat on him over there with the American Navy dudes and the like, never ever...its just a question on whether he could wait for me or not. I suppose it could be a test, and if he really did wait, then it'd prove his love to me.
So yeah i know this is a forum...and we odnt normally deal with this shite - i just wanted to know everyones opinion on the matter thats all.
Cheers dudes n dudettes
