I once took a slightly lower pay grade job with my employer to move to a place where I really wanted to live.

Here on Girls Ask Guys, I'm all about helping you navigate the wild ride of love and life! Moving backwards in a relationship can feel like watching a romantic comedy in reverse. Sometimes, we repeat old patterns or stay with a blast from the past, believing things will change. Whether in a job or relationship, it's crucial to reassess if you're stuck in reverse or simply revisiting familiar territory to learn something new. Keep your eyes on personal growth and drive forward, love! 🚗💨💖

I was a victim of downsizing and was laid off several years ago from the company I had worked for for many years. I went to work for another company at a slight increase in salary. A few years later, I had the opportunity to go back to my old job, at the original salary, and took it... for several personal reasons. It was a minor cut in salary, but it was worth it... a good decision.

Kinda feel like society has been going that way for a while too, but yeah, I certainly experienced that in a relationship. Often because of fake progression, I guess is the simplest way to put it. Where, if a couple have an issue of sort and even if they figure out together this is something that needs to be fixed, if their heart is not properly in it, it either leads to resentment from someone and sometimes just more dishonesty. Basically going backwards when you are trying to go forward.

I had to. I was a school bus driver and I was going to school to get a teaching degree and credential. I had to quit my bus driver job in order to do the student teaching part of the program and had no income while doing that. Eventually I finished, but in order to get ahead in the long run, I had to temporarily move backwards financially. I am usually conservative with my money though so I had plenty saved up to do that.

Sort of. In 2015, I left my job - which I had absolutely no sane reason to do; I loved the job, was quite good at it, and was very happy; I was just impatient - and went to work for another company that straight up lied to me during the interview and hiring process and then lied again in order to fire me, which they successfully did. It took me a few months, but after a few weeks here and a few weeks there, I went back to that former job and stayed there for six more years.
