[quote=Anonymous]OP -- I wouldn't look at it as 'he's going back on his promise and I'd never do that.' I'd look at it as -- he didn't know what it would feel like until he got there. Sure every senior wants to be partner. But the reality is once you make partner, the pressure completely turns and it's even harder. The commitment that looked good to him and you when he was a 32 yr old 7th yr looks different to him now - bc now he's older and maybe the hours and stress is a LOT more tiring than even 5 yrs ago; now he has a kid and another on the way and maybe when he was committing to you leaning out and him being partner, he thought he'd be ok with not being home much with his hypothetical children and now that it's REAL children, he realizes it bothers him and time goes fast and he's missing out. Just another way to look at it IF you want to give him the benefit of the doubt and not just assume that he's doing this to go back on his word.[/quote]
