**Update #2**
I got a job offer that will allow me to stay in Kansas City! I am awake late the night before my first day on the job in Wichita knowing I have this job new job on the table. Last step is background check and drug screening, which should not be a problem. I want to wake up and put in my two weeks notice, but I feel super weird because I haven't even started yet lol. The new job does not start until the beginning of August, so I have some time. I am itching to turn this page in my life and debating just taking this next month to get myself together. Been a wild and hectic(for me) couple of months so far.
***Update***
KC has been great, but training has come to an end and they want me to relocate again. Here is the update.

For some backstory, I have been working at the same retail store for 10 years now. I have moved up along the way after graduating college, and I now have a chance to move to a larger city 12 hours away for a promotion. I currently live in Mississippi with my GF, and my main goal has been to get out of Miss. for years now. Problem is, my girlfriend of four years has a fairy successful small business she is running here, and does not want to leave it or her family behind. I have to choose by tomorrow to stay and hope for a promotion here, or take the one offered to me and leave her behind. Ive been racking my brain all weekend weighing the pros and cons. I am afraid I am locking myself into a lifetime of Mississippi living if I dont take it, or losing my long term Gf if I do take it. She is currently being supportive, but I realistically know how a long distance relationship would end up.
I know the decision is mine alone, but some perspective or insight would be appreciated here.
