Generally, nothing over another. I'd rather prefer a balance. Life goes out of whack when you choose one over the other
But specifically in reply to your post errr....when the other person is FORCING you to marry them or give up your hopes/dreams/plans/expecations, its for their own advantage cuz they are not seeing your point of view, they don't care about what may be important for YOU. That ain't love man

That's pure selfishness. And they'll more likely be that way for the rest of your lives if you do marry them. You should run from people like that anyways!!!!

Screw that kinda relationship whether going abroad or not.
