hi, snakee.. For no apparent reason, a big NO! Why would I sacrifice my job even if the salary is just average when he can't even give me a valid reason? If he is just my boyfriend, the more I wouldn't quit it. He's just my boyfriend, and we are not even sure if we are meant for each other, so I wouldn't even give it a thought! If he loves me as much as I love him, he wouldn't ask me to do that..With the rate the economy in my country is going down the slope, I wouldn't ask him to do the same thing he asks of me..if we marry each other, we need all the financial leverage.. When I got pregnant with my eldest, I had to quit my high paying job because he needs me. He has some slight physical disabilities and that would require me to be always by his side, and to be the one to take care of him and not just a nanny.. i did it because I love him and no amount of money can make me leave my son with someone else.

Quit job for no apparent reason? a big NO! - Unless there is a very valid reason that quitting my job was the only logical answer. Quit job for the sake of true love? Maybe - but if we are rich and could sustain our needs even if I don't get a job, well maybe I could bargain that we open a business that we will manage on our own. But if that's not the case, it would be a very lame excuse to quit a job when you know for a fact that you needed a job to help the finances in building your own family.

I think that is not an option. In order to live a wealthy life, a good job is needed. But if the circumstances includes stuffs that involves the nature of the work affecting our love affair, sure I'll leave a job and find other.

No way! If he can't give you a reason or explanation for wanting you to quit what does he expect? If it was for the sake of TRUE love there better be some kind of explanation?

No, I would never allow that to happen. If a man asks this of you, he is not respecting you and your career choice. This is more a controlling action than one based on love, for with love, you only want your partner to be happy and to succeed in life. And to even think to ask a person to leave their job as a test of love is so totally wrong and selfish. Makes you wonder what the next test will be?!

He'd better have a good reason, like a million dollars deposited in my name.

if its love and if it mattered to be so much i would. because love and relationships at that commitment level are about sacrifice and if i sacrificed for her then one day she would sacrifice for me. work is just work. you can find good work anywhere. having said that if it was the opportunity of a lifetime then im sure she would come with me - since its true love.

quit your job just to pleased your bf/gf. I think that's a stupid thing that you'll gonna do. if he really loves you then he'll gonna support you and be happy in every decision you'll gonna make..........................

if your loveliest boyfriend/girlfriend ask you that, well he'll gonna respect your decision and support you in everything you do, because true love is never become selfish when it comes to that point.
