I've been offered my dream job abroad, but my partner's career is taking off here in India. This opportunity could skyrocket my career, but asking my partner to relocate feels selfish. How does one prioritise and balance 2 careers?
If it were an open marriage or even the possibility of you two having a healthy enough marriage, I would advise both of you to pursue their respective careers. If it pays you both well, sync your holidays meet in each other's cities, meet anywhere around the world. Take WFH if available to spend longer times.
Unless you have children or plan to have children then you would need to be together for loooong.

Dreams are more important. Your partner doesn’t have to relocate till they feel the time is right. You do, even if it means short term distance.
Being a dependent, he is likely to find good opportunities once he rises in his career in India.

You can't balance both. Need to make a choice.
I would suggest moving abroad if you plan on staying abroad long term, better quality of life.
