So I turned down a job. I took a long time to think about it. I did all the numbers, PROS and CONS. I didn't want to turn it down, but right now in my life it just seemed like the best choice for my family.
HOWEVER, I can't stop thinking I screwed up... I can't stop running the numbers that show I would make more money, or that I have better benefits. I can't stop dreaming that this job would be more fun, or more satisfying (which of course I have no clue about).

Honestly when I told the guy I wouldn't be taking the job I fell on the floor and sobbed.
I really need to get over it, but can't seem to feel like I screwed my whole life up.

Thanks for the help.
