I feel that I will enver be good enough for him...and that there are so many other women who deserve his love. I have no clue what I want to do with my life and to be honest...all I really want is to have babies. I am going to school right now...and I pay for tuition...I live on my own but my parents pay for rent and food. I just...don't really know what to do with myself...I'm scared to just give up school...because although I am not really interested in my studies...I am able to complete my studies...I dunno...I feel like there is something wrong with me...I'm not a girl who has any crazy high ambitions...yet I am with this guy who wants to be a doctor...i am definately not his equal  ...I don't know really what I am |
To answer your question here, I wouldn't sweat it if you're not as ambitious as your boyfriend.
My wife is an accountant and wants nothing more than a steady, reasonably well-paying job that she can stand, time to read books and watch movies, and time (when the time comes) to raise a family. I, on the other hand, recently went back to school, and am hyper-ambitious about succeeding in my chosen field. And we complement each other fantastically.
Two type-As in a relationship can end in disaster. The important thing is what you want out of life...and for your relationship, if your boyfriend loves you for who you are, then you shouldn't compare yourself to him. Few people fall in love with others who are exactly like them.
