[quote=Anonymous]I was in this exact same position as OP but genders were reversed. He applied for a job in another state without telling me. He told me when he got an interview. He got the job. I was really upset that we were dating 18 months, I was 30, and marriage had come up. I felt he was planning his life without me. But I had no veto power because we were not engaged or married. He took the job and moved. I wanted to break up. He wanted to do long distance. I tried to break up, He begged me not to. Anyway, we did long-distance and I was uneasy the whole time. Then he proposed. My gut said to say no but I had a lot of family pressure. I ended up saying yes but had doubts and wanted to cancel even on the wedding day. I had to move to his new state. I was miserable.

I felt like he did not ever care about what I wanted in a relationship long-term. It was all about him. The whole relationship was his way or no relationship. It was a mistake to do long distance. It was a mistake to marry.

We divorced after 10 years. I only stayed that long because an unplanned pregnancy happened and then you "try to  make it work."

Him applying for that job was making our lives go in different directions. We should have broken up. OP--I think you should let her go. [/quote]
