Do you ever feel like you are at odds with your love life and your work life? Do you find that sometimes you have to choose? Somhow you have to decide whether or not to work it in the bedroom or work it in the board room . I have always heard that there was a balance that you had to find between the two. To be honest, I don’tknow and I have never known how to find that balance. Usually if I had to choose between work and or school versus a guy I will always choose my job and school. Is that so horrible?
This takes me back to a guy I used to do homework with the beginning of my sophomore year of college. I remember, we did more talking than studying. This happened so much so, I got a D on one of my tests in one ofmy classes. I remember being horrified at this fact and telling myself I needed to stay away from this guy because I will flunk out and do poorly and have nothing. Of course this was extreme. When I look back , of course there were other things I could have done but the anxiety of flunking anything and my 19 year old emotional immaturity would not let me figure it out.
As for people who work long hours and have to be away from their families, how do you do it? I have no clue how to do this .I have found this in my behavior as I find myself dating more when school is not in session and when things are stressful at work I withdraw from dating or seeing anyone. These are the times that I go missing or find any excuse not to take anyone seriously.
I know that one day and one day soon I hope , I will have to give up being in the elements so I’m not the old chick in the club. When/if this happens, I have to figure this balance. What do you suggest? Does anyone else have this struggle ? Let me know
