Moving from Abroad
General Support / by shyOrange8512

...See more Hello, I am soon going to move away from London to my home country. I will leave a job that I love and that is giving me good money. I studied in the UK with my girlfriend but she doesn't want to stay in London and she left back to our country because she found a good (5 months ago). I have been working in London for about 4 years in total. I found a good job in our country now so I can be with me girlfriend. Objectively, the job will be a step up for my career but for far less pay. Although still about twice the median salary in my country. I can see myself grow in the current company in London and earn more money and get more experience in the future. I am worried that by coming back home, I am missing out on potential and abandoning lot of years of dedication of being away and working towards my career. I am worried I am making a wrong decision. My whole family keeps telling me that I am crazy to come back which only stregthens this feeling. I love my girlfriend and we have been together for a number of years. I am just worried that I am moving to a worse life and I could potentially be better placed in London. Any opinions on this will be appreciated, thank you very much.
