[shadha]

Pushpa: What if you and your spouse had different ideas about your career paths that weren't compatible? How would you resolve it? Would one of your careers take 2nd place? Whose? Would you both compromise? How?

Seeing that he is commanded by Allah, swt, to shoulder the responsibility of being the maintainer, I would willingly but sadly put my career 2nd to his if a compromise is not able to be met. It would be difficult to swallow sure but priorities have to be kept straight and consistent.

Now that is not to say that it would deter me from pursuing a successful career, I would just have to find a compromise for myself that would benefit our marriage and also benefit me as an individual.
