love and career cannot go in one..

I also think that my friend. It is not possible to go in the two way.

hi, i dont believe that love and career cannot go in one because i have many known people and neighbor that had a good career and good job too,i think that they are more lucky only than other people who dont have this kind of luck.

Hmm, I don't think so. Because, I had this classmate way back in high school; She was our valedictorian - a very bright girl, and very happy in love( not sure if totally happy) but I know she was able to maintain her spot as top1 in our batch while at the same time, having a love life. I really envy that girl because I had the opposite case. I tried in high school but it seems that interfering love with some other concentrations in my life fails both or the other way. Or maybe, I am just unlucky with love. Until college life, I tried again but I did failed again. This time, I failed a subject, because I became lazy studying and spent my whole focus to this crush of mine. That was so stupid of me! But I thank God I experienced that, at least now as I go on with my life, I already knew my priorities, and its not about having a love life as of the moment.

They don't go together well because both of them take a lot of commitment if you really love the person or your career. You would like to involve in them as much as you can. Therefore, when you involve too much in your career, your partner is likely to be ignored by you for most of the time. Some people can stand this but most can't. For those people who can, their partner will probably have success in their career as well as can stay with the one that they love. Some people just remember their lover all the time and cannot focus on work. Then, obviously they won't perform well in their work but can keep their relationship with their lovers quite well. Hence, I think they usually cannot coexist but they do in some rare occasion.

Because its not the career its the love of money that we fall in love with. We replace our love of each with the love of money. That love is the root of all evil. That means we choose money over the one we love, you see it all about choice. It can work if we really wanted it to. Love is perfect it can't be replaced, its unconditional, its all up to us. The choice is not between love or career its between love and money. We can have both its our choice.

Hello there airasheila, In my opinion, I think that they can bought co-exist with one another, in this time of age most of the time people are getting successful quickly and it is just inevitable. So it is important that in love both are understanding of one another and is supportive so that they can be both successful in life and at the same time also successful in there love life. Compromise and understanding is key.

well you are right, about that, my husband wants me to work more then anything, he says it takes 2 incomes to make it and he is tried of scrapping by.. for now i am gonna try and put forth mmore effort on mylot and antoher site i do and try to make it a parttime job.. along with house work and cooking that is all the time i would have.. i cant get a reg job because im trying to get my disability for bi polar disorder..

i think, it's not fro all people. i know some people who are both successful with their careers and love life. i am too. i am a working mom and i have a good marriage. my work is never a hindrance to my husband and i. the thing is you need to set priorities and it is up to you how you will balance them. it is not easy but it is possible.

In my case that is what happening for now. I am in good relationship wherein both of us are happy but not in terms of career. Though what we can do is to work hard for it in order for us to achieve our goals in life. I know someone who is very successful in career and she is even a professional who has lots of recognition. But too bad her husband is not that good to her as she is not being treated well.

Yes it is very hard to be able to balance both. It a person is able to be reasonable with both their career and their love life things can work out. It's when things are unbalanced that it's hard. For example we all generally have to work in order to take care of ourselves and our family. Say both partners work full time forty hours a week. Well after work it should be family time. But if a person continues to work after that time then the family or partner gets neglected. It's possible to have both you just have to be organized with your time.

Look, why is it that the light and the dark are one? You can have both love and career as long as you manage them both. Don't stress yourself in this kind of situation, just live your life to the fullest. That's what everything and everyone counts for.

I think this is only true depending on the persons involved. We probably just heard a lot of stories that confirms this, however, I'm sure there are many success stories we just haven't heard or read. The thing is pop culture has always sensationalized this issue, and it feels like both of them (career and love) are against each other. It is not. They are two separate entities which one should never mix together in one question. Both involves making hard choices, but to be honest, to make hard choices is actually part of success in both career and love. What I don't like about this is that people often equate career as something that can equate love in the list of priorities. Career can be a means to supporting your loved one, and love can make you feel inspired so you can thrive in your chosen career. If you see one AGAINST the other, then clearly, that would be a problem. However, if one views it to SERVE each other, then that's just golden.

Maybe because both of them needs attention but you cannot serve both masters at the same time. You can either be great at one but not so great at the other. A successful career often denotes a busy life and so it has no time to either look for a potential partner in life or be attentive to his/her partner. So the love section is unsatisfied because she/he felt neglected. If you go for love, you are so busy making your partner happy that you forget to pay attention to your work and climb the ladder towards success because having a partner in life and happy about it would very much feel like you have it all. You feel contented and some boss will never be happy with a person who has a low drive in the work. I would also agree that balance is the key but it is very difficult to achieve and to maintain. But that's how life is.

This is not the case for all.There are the people who are able to manage both love and career successfully.I saw so many people like this.The thing which we want to do to get success in both the things will be dedication.U should be so much dedicated to your work or studies or whatever.U should have some aim in life.Then love will not be a problem to get success in career.
