As a woman who has been accused of choosing my career over love, I refuse to feel guilty for my decision. My mother raised me to stand on my own two feet and not to depend on a man. I'm not bitter from a past relationship. I am just realistic. My family, (meaning my mother, father, & etc.) are the second priority in my life (the first priority being God of course). I love my family to death and would give them the shirt off my back if I think they need it more. I have a good man, but he knows that since he has not made a promise before God (meaning marriage) to put me before all others in his life, he can't expect me to put my career on the back burner for him. I think most men want a woman who isn't looking for a provider. And it is because of my independence that he respects me. And you can't have love without respect.
