[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My boyfriend and I have a beautiful connection. both of us are marriage minded. There is one issue that’s giving me pause and I’d like to know what others think. I am ambitious and probably make a little more than him. He is somewhat traditional on gender roles. he doesn’t want me to work long hours, and I get the feeling he does not want me to climb the corporate ladder. I’ve told him in marriage I’d compromise on long hours. But I have this feeling he may generally speaking resent me for being ambitious down the road. I have no plans of stopping being career driven though I can dial back hours. Everything else is golden between us. Thoughts?[/quote] Couples therapy. You both owe it to yourselves to explore this. What is "somewhat traditional on gender roles"? That could mean anything from really wanting you to take his last name to expecting you to do all of the housework and quit your job to be a SAHM. You should figure this out now.[/quote]
