Do you want to marry/date someone thats in the same job field as you are?

Poll

Would you?

Do you want to?

Pros, things in your day job could be resolved easily with the help of your partner.

Cons, being annoyed about your job at home.

Thats all I can think of.

but wouldn't she get super bored being alone most of the day.. (js but that's how some women resort to cheating, can't let them be too lonely lol)
Aslong as shes not a stripper/escort/similar job, then I don't really care.
My partner wouldn't have to be a professional musician as such, but ability to play a musical instrument/an appreciation of similar types of music that I like would def be a bonus! :musicus:
I plan to marry a billionairess and not have to work anyway.
I wouldn't mind.

Cheating is not a problem. Divorce is always an option. Their boredom is not of my concern.

Why?
I think it'd be more interesting if we were in different fields. I think I'd like to marry someone who was a corporate lawyer or something (cause of suits :tongue:)
I wouldn't really mind because I'd learn things from them as well and conversations might be more interesting?
Yeah why not I guess

You sound like a pretty selfish person.

What will be, will be. Love is unpredictable, so you have to be flexible, to reap the best outcome possible.

I wouldn't mind tbh. It would be even better if we worked at the same place as well so that we can be together more often.
Either is fine. I do like the idea of someone else in an education based field though as it's the sort of profession that's often best understood (and the hours, working at home etc. better tolerated!) by someone with a similar job.

lol that's a bit selfish, your "wife" is a human being too btw..
Nah, not because I don't want to be bothered about work at home, but I just think having some variety would be nice, they could tell me about all the cool stuff they did at work and I could talk about all the boring stuff I did :daydreaming:
