Like many of the other folx who responded to this statement, I could not possibly agree less. My husband is my cheering section and my biggest fan. He encourages me in my career, and I would not be where I am today without him.

Part of the reason I have made it to where I am is because my husband supported and encouraged me. He encourages and beloved in me more than most of my family. I do believe some relationships are toxic but not all and not by a long shot. This is a really lonely way to look at relationships and career goals.

Even more reason not to automatically reject a possible loving and supportive relationship.

It's possible to have healthy relationships while still going after your goals. Surrounding yourself with the right people can actually help you reach your goals rather than be a distraction!

If career advancement is your primary goal, then I can see that having commitments outside of your career could be perceived as a distraction rather than a loving sanctuary. Of course, that applies to friends and hobbies as well. It never occurred to me to ascertain whether a loving relationship might not be convenient. My husband and I are partners. We agree upon our goals and work on them together. Sometimes we negotiate and compromise. Sometimes my needs take priority, sometimes his take precedence. And yes, sometimes we argue. Even so, we face everything together and I can't imagine choosing otherwise.

I don't agree at all. I think it depends on people in a relationship and if they are ready for them. I started dating my future husband when we were teenagers. Both graduated with masters degrees from different universities. Both have different successful careers and we always support each other. And we need love and support all the time, not only when "you are settled perfectly in your job".
