There is just one thing and that's that our dreams don't align. I have a dream of the fastlane while she has the dream of being a cabin crew/flight attendant. I have tried showing her the fastlane and financial freedom and she even decided to start her own very small business. But her real dream is to be a flight attendant.
Am I exaggerating or is this a valid concern? Maybe our relationship can function for decades without having the same dream?
Take care of today. Support each other. The future has yet to be written.Hey guys,
So I have been in a relationship with my girlfriend for about a year and we have been living together for a few months. Things are really great and I really love her! We get along well, have a similar sense of humor, have similar values, and help each other improve and get better by for example working out together. We do argue sometimes but usually those are very productive and resolved easily rather than just throwing useless insults at each other. She is also extremely caring and even made me breakfast this morning!

This makes me a little bit worried that it might cause problems down the road when our dreams don't align like that. I am fairly inexperienced when it comes to romantic relationships so I wanted to ask people who have been in long-term relationships what your advice would be? Am I exaggerating or is this a valid concern? Maybe our relationship can function for decades without having the same dream?
Ideally, I don't want to lose her or end the relationship because everything is so good with her right now but I also don't want to be miserable in 20-30 years because I stayed with her.
Anyways, any advice is appreciated!
Supporting each others dreams is more important than sharing them. That's the "married twenty years" thought.There is just one thing and that's that our dreams don't align.

That is a very good point! Thanks for the insight! I haven't thought about that!You're talking about business dreams. What about personal dreams? Start a family? Core values?
My girlfriend's dream is to become a surgeon and she will probably do that all of her life. Not my dream, my vision is Fastlane like MJ discribes in his book. We support each other in every way.
She actually is a flight attendant right now and enjoys it which makes me happy.The other is noting she hasn't actually been a flight attendant, right?
