When Opposites Attracting Goes Terribly Wrong
Or ambition is stifled
The nature of an ambitious person shouldn’t be squandered. Work-life balance is important, of course, and in a good case of opposites attracting, the person who prioritizes family over career helps the ambitious one have more work-life balance. But they do not make the ambitious one feel bad for her ambitions. They do not see those ambitions as always in direct conflict with their happiness as a couple.
