What do I do?

I first joined this site over 15 years ago. I met several people then fell in love with a woman that made me feel good about myself. We had 10 years before she passed away and we were still in love at the end. It wasn't perfect, but we were happy with what we had. My one real issue was her refusal to change her job. She was unhappy with her employer, bored with her job and she refused to look for another one because of her weight. After she was gone I told myself that the next person I got involved with would have to be happy with her job and her profession.

I found someone on this site about 2 years ago. She was very happy with her job and she was a good person. Things were going fine but the last year her job has changed to the point where she is stressed, unhappy and working herself into an early grave. She says that things will change but all I've seen is things getting worse and worse. Trying to keep her spirits up has drained me, and I have given up. I will not go through this again.

So now I am worried that I am the problem. That I am attracted to people who are always going to be unhappy with their jobs. What can I do to change this? Maybe this is the wrong place to be asking, but I need to find some sort of answer that I can live with. It would be so much easier if I could just change and be a real asshole instead of someone who cares. Any helpful advice out there?

I found out last night that a friend I met on this website passed away a while ago. We had met just after each of us had suffered the loss of a spouse and spent lots of time helping each other through the various emotions we each felt. She had also been dealing with a chronic acute pain issue and had been taking medication to deal with it. She had really been a great source of support and comfort for me, and I had thought I was helping her. It turns out the pain and the depression became too much for her and she stopped fighting. I will miss her, and our long conversations. If you are having problems coping with issues please talk to someone, be it a friend, family, or even strangers who have suffered a similar loss. I wish I had done more.
