When couples face major life decisions and competing dreams

My husband and I are trying to decide whether to move across the country for his dream job, and we've both started pretending we're more okay with either outcome than we actually are. I can feel us both performing certainty we don't have because we love each other too much to be the reason the other person doesn't get what they want.
