The love of my life and I met when she was in vet school in Oklahoma and I was living in Tulsa. 6 months into our relationship, she moved to Virginia to complete a 1 year rotating internship. In that time I moved to Denver, and in July of 2012 we closed the distance and happily lived together, madly in love, until now. I was laid off on January 2nd of this year when the company I had been working for sold the assets for which I was responsible.
I spent 3 months desperately looking for a job here in Denver. However, the crash in natural gas prices last year has really hammered the market for drilling engineers in Denver. Eventually, it became clear that I would have to leave Denver. I expanded my search to Texas, and had a job in Dallas within a week. I start on the 28th and I'm leaving for Dallas on the 26th.
She has only been in her first job after the internship for about 6 months now and really isn't in a position to leave right now. So I'll be making the move without her, but with plans to reunite in a year or so when she'll have a more marketable resume.
This has obviously been absolutely devastating. She cries almost every night, and it's gotten to me a few times too.
This is going to be so very hard, but we know that we want to spend the rest of our lives together.
