[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My boyfriend and I have been dating for three years.  [b]He has brought up many times, my career choice[/b].  I am a FT nanny, and have been for almost ten years.
I love my job and feel fulfilled and excited by it- I work for a warm, loving family, make $65k/year, have no debt- and no worries.
[b]He feels it's an unambitious job, no career growth, etc[/b]-- The thing is, I do see where he's coming from and I'm not offended by what he says- but [b]I'm just not a career-oriented person[/b].  I put money away for retirement, paid of my car, and am saving for a home, and I am happy.  Am I missing something?[/quote]

He wants you to be someone other than who you are, for his own reasons (prestige?  money?).

Red flag - you should reconsider staying with him.  IMO.[/quote]

I agree.  I think you're doing fabulously!  I know a PP mentioned some other careers you could pursue but what will they offer that your current profession does not?[/quote]
