[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. This is not BS. I actually ended up divorced because of this issue. While dating I find that men seem excited/interested in me being an overachiever in the beginning, but down the road it becomes an issue. It is as if the idea of a career woman is great to them, but the reality is something they can’t handle. Examples include:

-resenting that I’m unwilling to relocate given this area is the epicenter of good jobs for me
-expecting prompt texts and drawn out conversation while I’m working
-dismissing my professional expertise (it’s in something that everyone interacts with like say being a doctor)
-advising me to not go for better opportunities
-getting annoyed that I am thoughtful and therefore have my own independent opinions[/quote]
That list is rather annoying and has less to do with your successful career and more about a personality trait. Also, the relocation would only be an issue if you are casting your net in waters not near your home.

Men are pretty simple and if your interest in them, and what you enjoy as a couple, is greater than sharing your glorious accomplishments/conquests within your career you should have little problems.[/quote]
