Working women often find themselves losing out on the romantic aspect of their lives. Here’s why:
- You’re misunderstood by others.
Many people have the wrong idea about you. They believe you to be arrogant, pretentious, and full of yourself. They only perceive you as a professional woman. They only see your job title in a bad light.
- You are regarded as overly “conservative.”
People instinctively cringe when you discuss your job, profession, and level of workaholism with them. Certain people consider successful women and workaholics to be prudes and excessively conservative.
- Working drains your energy.
You actually lack the energy needed to go out or date after work. You devote so much time and effort to your job that you entirely neglect maintaining a social or dating life.
- You intimidate other people.
As usual, you’ll scare others and make them incredibly envious. They see your work title on LinkedIn and your nice desk and immediately assume the worst. They don’t see you as a real human being. Instead, they regard you as an alien.
- Our world is still sexist.
Sadly, the world in which we live is still very, very sexist. Things often don’t appear to be improving fast enough. In this topsy-turvy world, people will assume you’re a spiteful hag simply because you’re successful. They’ll question you about your lack of cheerfulness and the fact that you aren’t preparing them a snack in the kitchen. This kind of conduct would drive ANY woman away from dating.
- There is not enough time to “play the field.”
You spend what little free time you do have with the people you love, your family, and your friends. You don’t have time to keep going on Tinder dates.
And honestly? You don’t want to.
