How do you plan for staying in different job locations? Unless the girl’s Govt is in same city (may be some Central Govt job), it would be extremely difficult. But I know some people doing this, husband-wife in job in two different cities, in some cases, the work-from-home option helps, but what if that option goes away.

I am completely against the idea of husband-wife staying in two different cities, specially in the initial few yrs of the marriage. That seems like a disastrous plan to me.

Job is meaningless here. The culture and the values of her family and the circumstances of her childhood matters.

I know women who stood by their family even when they had better jobs
