Your Man Should Not be the Center of Your Universe
2. Build a life plan involving career and pursuing your passions and THEN see how a relationship would fit in.
I recently caught up with a friend who was completely engulfed in a serious relationship that didn’t work out. Without a relationship occupying his every thought and emotion, he began to realize all of the things like his education and time with friends he had placed on hold while he was trying to make a relationship work. Give yourself some credit: you are strong and have great abilities to multi-task. If your relationship (or the pursuit of one) is draining the energy from other important areas of your life, then it may not be worth having. Relationships require hard work, but they aren’t all work and having one doesn’t mean your career and other interests have to suffer.
