Graduated with my BS in Business info systems last year. Looking to do an online MS program in Supply Chain, I’ve looked around for something somewhat affordable. The best option seems to be ASU’s online program which is around $25k. I saw a school in Alabama called Athens State that does a MS in SCM for under $10k. I’m working full-time so I have to do an online program. Prefer some cheaper (would love under $20k).
For reference I’m 23M and my gf is 22F.
I graduated from college last year and got a job I like not far from my house. She is graduating this year, but got a really good job offer that is 2 hours away meaning she would move out.
I’m worried about us not being together and our careers taking us apart. It’s very possible she stays in that area while I stay in mine. I already looked at jobs where she is going for my field and it’s not great. In theory she could get a job in my area, but she has more connections/opportunity in this other area.
I’m afraid that our careers will pull us apart, that we’ll start living parallel lives. I’m worried that we’ll have to put our relationship on hold for years because our careers got in the way. I can’t live that way, I can’t live with my relationship on hold waiting for the day when we have jobs near each other so we can move in and start a family. It’s not fair to her or me to bet on an outcome that might not happen due to our careers. We both are career oriented, so it hurts a lot. For me even worse, because this is my first ever romantic relationship, and it’s been amazing.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
