If you are so satisfied with your current job and position but your closed boyfriend asked you to resign. Waht will you do for that situation? Someone choose the job for their boyfriend and will you be the one who quit for your boyfriend?

Work is very important to me, so if I had a boyfriend who asked me to quit my job I would seriously reconsider my choice for a boyfriend. If he wanted me to get a better job because right now I'm underemployed (and my boss and I sometimes fight), that would be one thing. But I value work very highly, and I wouldn't want to be with someone who doesn't respect that.

I wou not resign, if i was enjoying my job, just because a bf wanted me to. I think that would be unreasonable of him.

If my boyfriend asked me to quit my job, and I would ask him why. There can be a lot of different reasons why he asks me to quit. Maybe he thinks that my job is too far away from home, maybe he thinks that I don't earn enough, maybe he is jealous of my boss or my male co-workers, maybe he simply doesn't like my job because of ideological reasons etc. There can be so many different reasons why he wants to me quit, so I would definately have to find out more, before I decide whether to quit or not. If I understand his reasons, I might quit the job, but it depends on the situation.

No, I think it's not a rivalry. I mean, it just looks like boyfriend vs. job? LOL.. I'm satisfied with my job, but if I were in that situation, I think the best way to solve it is to confront your boyfriend. Have a conversation wherein ask him why he doesn't like your job? Because if he really loves you, he will respect you and your decision.
