In Honor Of Near Miss Day: Relationships I’m Glad I Escaped
The workaholic narcissist
Ambition is definitely attractive, but I dated a may for whom his work was his whole life. His career was his identity. He based his value—his sense of self-worth—on how his career was going. Translation: being a good partner was low on his priorities list. If I asked him to miss a work event to, oh, I don’t know, spend my birthday with me, I was accused of getting in the way of something great. Yeah, yeah. Whatever. There’s something to be said for enjoying life, too.
