'I'm leaving you in favor of your sister' <---What!?

Good afternoon guys,
Would you help me here?
If I tell my girlfriend that I'm going to leave her for her sister? 'In favor' fits in?
Or:

I'm going to leave you, in purpose of dating with your sister.
Or:
I'm going to leave the house now in favor/in purpose/in objective to do X Y Z. Do you understand?
I need to find word!

I hope this is a hypothetical example. I'm leaving your for your best friend. I'm leaving this job for one closer to my house.

  • I'm leaving your for your best friend.
  • I'm leaving this job for one closer to my house.
  • I'm leaving now so I can get to the bank before it closes.
  • I'm leaving you so I can pursue my life-long dream of professional ant farming, and it wouldn't be fair to you to make you wait for me until it became profitable.
