Sounds like a good decision on her part TBH. There's no way I'd hang around for a girl who was working 80 hour weeks without an exit plan in the next couple of years.

you should be making the same amount of money as 35 hours a week as you do working 80 hours a week

Might sound cynical but when a girl initiates that talk I have to ask if there's someone else. Just straight up to her face.

Unless she's clearly the needy type who is dying for a cuddle-buddy. But unless you're leaving town constantly for work and never see her, it just makes me suspect.

Its brutal for sure but if you have a goal and push through to the end it is worth it.

My worst hours were 8 years of 12-18 hours a day, 7 days a week.

It's probably not bullchit. There's no time to enjoy someone if they're working that much. There's no indication op will ever stop so it's a good call to split if that's not what she's looking for.

I dunno. I don’t think she would do that to me and then lie about the reason but, I could be wrong. Won’t ask her, just need to move on.

Lol, only a pussy puts a woman before his career/goals. This is the best thing that could happen to you. Grab your ****ing balls and put your head straight into the game. I worked 95 hours a week for the past year and a half.



Because if you put her first, it's only a matter of time before she starts resenting you for it. Putting your goals first, will ALWAYS have them coming back. Not true for the other way around.

You do have a choice. You only need enough money to have a quality life and you should be able to do that on no more than 40 hours a week.

Anything above 40 hours is NOT worth sacrificing relationships for.

You value whatever is going on at work over your relationship. Whatever that may be, the money, the prestige, the fact that you have an excuse to not get close...

Dont be a bitch and start guarding your heart and wasting your time phucking bitches left and right. Just see red flags beforehand, she probably didnt have strong feelings for you, her reasoning is bs. If there was distance I would get it, but schedule reasoning is bs.

damn tough chit chestbrah

after I graduated and got my CPA I realized the work wasn't for me, was putting in 70-80 hrs a week for 2 years before I went off into another field. See some of my buddies who stuck with it and are now making $150-$200k in their late 20's/early 30's but I still don't regret it.

Sometimes, you got to do what you got to do to get where you got to go. Let no one discourage you. Happiness starts with no one else but you.

It’s difficult for us to see each other during the week because of my hours and the fact that she lives like 30 minutes outside downtown, where I work and live.

I told her that my feelings for her were bigger than those inconveniences and we could get through it, she said it hurt her heart too much that it was so hard for us to see each other and it was really weighing on her. And, she wasn’t ready to love anyone or be loved by anyone as she has been through a lot in previous relationships. Sucks that she basically said I wasn’t worth it, that she didn’t want to get through the inconvenience of our schedule with me but it is what it is.

Hurts pretty bad, especially because she was the first girl I really let into my heart in a long time as I have always been really afraid of getting hurt like this so I generally have always kept things casual with women and tried having a rotation. She was different and I thought we could really have something great.

Unfortunately, didn’t work out that way. Gonna go back to guarding my heart and just seeing multiple women as I can’t really handle this kind of hurt in my life on a regular basis, already stressed enough as is.

She said she still cares about me deeply and wants me in her life but I can’t do that. Would hurt me too much.
****ty situation, but that’s life. Time to move on and go back to the bachelor lifestyle. Onwards and upwards fellas. Take everything as a learning experience and use it to be better and stronger than you were the day before
You've missed the purpose of the entire game.

You became vulnerable, weak, and 'let her in?' Are you a woman OP? She got her validation now it's on to the next. She never cared about you. It was all about her, about what you could do for her.
I told her that my feelings for her were bigger than those inconveniences and we could get through it
This is the most beta thing you could say or do. You were begging.

It's alright OP, you're 25, you'll learn.
