[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re not a gold-digger for wanting a guy who is more ambitious.[/quote]

No, I'm not a ge digger. That's such an awful thing to say. I love this guy and want to marry him. It just bugs me because he seems like he is afraid to really put himself out there and know what he wants and get it. He isn't stupid; he has a masters degree from a great program. He is just too intimidated to get out there and figure out a career path that's lucrative. [/quote]

You need to be supportive of him or move on.  My DH for 23 years was unemployed with no transportation when we first met. After six months he got a job with the local government, low paying but honest work.  In a few more years he got a job at a bank as a bank analyst.  The bank paid for him to go back to school and get an MBA in finance.  Fast forward and he's now an SVP at a major bank.  If you are serious about this person and want to spend the rest of your life with him, you will have to be patient and provide him with the support he needs to move forward.  I'm also a working professional and DH and I make a comfortable living.  You also need to come to the table with something too and not expect him to carry all the weight of your relationship.[/quote]
