[quote=SHESGOTTOBE,260559]Hmm…I could have sworn I saw a thread with the same title before. ^_^” To answer the question: No. Not necessarily. I know so many successful women around me who’ve been married for at least 25 years and still counting. I think it is because they have confident husbands, meaning their husbands are not in any way feel threatened/intimidated by their successful wives. I also know women who worked while their husbands are going to school to study law or get their masters degree. I work with one woman who holds a very important position but she would not hesitate to leave early or take a day off if it concerns her family. She has 3 college kids. I’ve always wondered how she’s doing it until I met her very supportive husband. I also work with another family man who has a very supportive working wife. The whole family including their grandchildren and great grandparents go on vacation for a week every year. It guess it boils down to supporting each other to be the best that they can be and that is only possible if there is real love in the first place. It’s like a team working for a common goal. Not only is it easier but it comes naturally to support someone you love. It also depends on the society’s general attitude towards working women. I think the problem starts when some people forget that work is just a way to make a living. There are some men who are so engrossed in their jobs (working 14-16 hours a day, including weekends) that their children barely know them. By the time their kids are grown up, their kids treat them with cold shoulders because the fathers are virtually strangers. Is it really the success that destroys relationships or is it the attitude and character of the individuals involved? Some people are just not capable of handling their success while others feel tremendous insecurity around success. ^_^ [/quote]
