perriwinkle Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 The question -- career or love? -- is kinda of an irritant for me. It was "the excuse" or "alibi" my ex used when she cheated on me. She was abroad for just three months when she suddenly changed. She became less enthusiastic to communicate with me, and her reason was she was always tired because she was focusing on her job, her career. Yeah right! She was tired because she was already dating and sleeping with someone else. Till the very end when she broke up with me, she kept on lying saying she just wanted to focus on her career. Heck, she even used that reason with her mother. Kina-career Nya ang love ...sorry bro,move on, you deserve to be happy, you don't deserve someone like her. Quote Link to comment

somenightsof2012 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 carrer muna... i believe we can always find love anywhere in the world... but if you are a believer of one true love drama...then that's a different thing... in my experience..a man and a women can fall in love many times in their lifetime... so look for a work / a job first that would satisfy your needs..rather than keep on seeking for love...for modern day love right now needs money to keep it sparkling...

*Jessie* Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Getting both is a great present anyone can get. But if and only if I have to choose just one, as of the moment, it would be career. Quote Link to comment
babymaker Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Career women do not appreciate marriage. The concept of marriage is finished for career women. What only matters is if a woman / women bears your babies and how much resources you can split between several women. If you are a guy with money and you want true marriage with lots of children, marry a non-career woman who believes in traditional roles and wants to start bearing babies beginning in her prime child bearing years (18-24)... meaning... NOW... no delays. Quote Link to comment

Edmund Dantes Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 In my last relationship. I did not have to choose. We helped each other reached our goals. Naalala ko nung time na hirap na hirap ako itaguyod publication ko at lagi ako nasasabon. She was at my side. Aantayin ako lagi makaauwi late at night. Lagi pinapalakas loob ko. Naniwala na I can make it lalo na nung panahon na wala na akong tiwala sa sarili ko. In a way utang na loob ko sa kanya nakarating ako dito Kaso, bakit kung kelan natupad ko pangarap ko, saka naman sya mawawala sakin ng ganun lang. Quote Link to comment

kanglin1 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Career from the responses that i read, it seems that mostly the responses are made from the standpoint or viewpoint when one is still single. how about if you are already married? what if career advancement for either you or your spouse is putting a strain in the relationship (i.e. neglect, lack of time, insensitivity). would you pursue your career goals at all cost possibly including damage to your marital relationship, breakdown of the marriage, broken family, separation/annulment? if driven to a point or spot wherein you have to choose between your career and your marriage/family, which would you choose and why?

DorkVader Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I am at the later stages of my career. I have a lot of catching up to do. I prioritized family over work when my kids were little. They are now in middle school and college. I guess I am lucky enough to still have the opportunity to advance this late. It is a relative thing. Priorities differ according to circumstances. So fast forward mode for me before the homestretch. Quote Link to comment
