Cynthia McFadden's Marriage Could Not Survive the Commute
In response to: Have you ever relocated for a significant other's work? Would you be willing to sacrifice your dream for that of another?
Yes, I moved to Baltimore in the early 1990s with my then-husband, who was offered a wonderful job running the Baltimore Sun. I commuted on the train to New York to work. One day I looked up at the Penn Station clock. It said it was nine o’clock. And for the life of me I couldn’t figure out if it was the morning and I was supposed to go to work, or if it was the evening and I was supposed to go home. The marriage did not survive the commute.
