3) Figure out how to tell girlfriend that I'm not going back to law school.

[/ QUOTE ]Hi Pete - Just be sincere.

My guess is she is going to think you should finish law school. (I do too). I have to tell you I'm very happy I finished my education and found meaningful employment.

But to each his own.

Yes everyone thinks I should finish law school, but I just don't think I have it in me. And I understand the desire for gainful employment -- it's what killed my previous incarnation as a dedicated poker player and drove me into law school in the first place. So I'm thinking I'll teach high school english between sessions.

Pete, if she loves you she will support you in what you want for your future. Just be open with her about your feelings. She may not like it but no one wants the one they love miserable. It sounds like you have no desire to be a lawyer. Ultimately you need to do what makes YOU happy not what makes others happy.

There is nothing wrong with teaching. You have great hours and it is emotionally rewarding. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
