Do y'all think two extremely ambitious people can work in a relationship?

[Colin X]

I think yes if it's just them.


But once kids involved I think it gets trickier

that's what nannies are for.

i used to work at a tutoring center where the rates were $70/hr for K-8 and $80/hr for 9-12. 4 hour per week minimum. i got paid a fraction of that but that's not important.

the thing was i rarely saw parents. it was always the nannies that picked em up from school and dropped em to the tutoring center then the nannies that got em from tutoring and brought em home. i did their 2nd grade assignments from scratch while they played games on their iphone 6s, rose gold, 64gbs.

frank ocean addressed the topic on channel orange - sweet life (outsider's perspective of wealth), not just money (poor parents barking at their kids for spending a few bucks), & super rich kids (rich kids who have empty lives).

Only if the man is more successful. if the woman is more successful then everything relationship becomes a toxic competition.

I'm going through the same shyt.

Her job mean more to her than mines even though I dwarf her on income. I get why dudes don't wanna mess with the upward mobile women

Nah, I think the only way a relationship like that could work is if the career is the most important thing to both of you.


i think that forces you two to either come together and create a balance or say fukk it and leave each other.



But once you find that balance it'll probably work like magic if it's real.

U trying to convince yourself not me.


Personally I want a wife to raise my children to be respectable, hard working and frankly better than me. Ambitious women have that skill set.


So gotta let them be them. Let them try it out.


I almost posted this exact thread last night until I realized I have 100 more choices to her maybe possibly 5

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

I think so.

Simply put, yes. Two very successful people have to consciously focus on ensuring that their relationship remains a priority because, at the end of the day/your life, your family is what you will likely care most about.

I think it is also important for those people to outsource household duties when possible (so that their lives aren't just about work, cleaning, and running errands). For instance, have your groceries delivered, have all your laundry picked up, washed, and folded by a laundry care company, utilize companies like blue apron to take the fuss out of meal prep, and etc. In general, as much free time as possible should be devoted to spending QT with the other.

I also agreed with the person who mentioned an at home helper for the kids, preferably a grandparent or other family member. Regardless of your income or work status, it takes a village to raise a child and sometimes a third party is needed to balance schedules/pick ups and etc. We don't have to be super human; it's okay to acknowledge when you need help.

 

[Dorian Breh]

That's what I wanna find out

Wife up some psycho type A wall street banker type chick

What do you mean by this?

But I think it can work depending on how the guy is because usually can't stand when their wife/gf is successful because she doesn't "need" them. If the guy isn't like that then it can work out perfectly.

Ambitious women like u are great. U can't date men like me tho. I'm 100% positive you've been told to date like a guy because u know what that sounds like.

U pull whatever u can out of ur ass to show children will be atleast a point in ur life.


All I'm saying is. Be u I'm me


stop lying to yourself baby girl. Your trying to convince a person who u can't convince
