This relationship advice for women will be relevant to you if you've identified the fact that you and your man have completely different passions in life that are taking you in different directions. Usually, this is a bad sign for things to come. How can you stay together and live under the one roof if you have different priorities in life, let alone spend the rest of your life with each other? It is possible and in this article, I'm going to explain how my wife, Elle, and I have been doing it for the last 5 years.
1. Our Priorities
My priorities are as follows: start a successful business, hire staff for the first time, travel to Ethiopia and get a sense of the depravity there, start my own charity fund to help the people who need it and win the Nobel Peace Prize (no, I'm not ambitious at all).
Elle's priorities are as follows: finish her MBA, enter a multi-million dollar company, reach middle to upper management, start her own firm, have kids (eventually), work until retirement then live off the superannuation.
2. Observations
Quite different, aren't we? Yet, we get along perfectly fine. We've talked about our goals and dreams and aspirations before but we don't see any clashes there. We love helping each other out and being there for each other.
We actually share one thing in common which keeps us together and that's ambition. We are both very driven. That doesn't mean that we don't feel like giving up every now and then. That's where we help each other out.
3. Accountability Partners
We are accountable to each other. We rely on each other to make sure that we are hitting our milestones and reaching our goals, day in, day out. If it wasn't for each other, we probably wouldn't be making much progress.
The fact of the matter is, we each understand how passionate we are about our own goals. I wouldn't dare think of replacing Elle with someone else, since she actually "gets" me. That's what makes it work. She actually wants to "get" me and she put in the effort to do so.
This relationship advice for women is relevant to you if you think that you have vastly different goals, dreams and aspirations from your man. You don't have to break up. Just support each other, be there when needed and most importantly, try to understand the emotional implications of those goals to the hilt. Your man will appreciate and love you for doing this.
