RVASarah said it perfectly. Someone who won’t compromise at work is someone who probably won’t compromise in their relationships. I’ve already dealt with some guys who had to have everything their way all of the time. No thanks.

Thanks sweetie. Compromise is one thing, settling is something entirely different.

Why would Simone want to be with someone who thinks compromise means being a “sell-out?” There is a parallel between the “work self” and the “relationship self” here. If he won’t compromise at work, why would he in a relationship?
I guess what I am saying is that she, or anyone for that matter, shouldn’t have to settle. Go with your gut, Simone.

Hmmm… I’m just curious, but what does it matter? You’re not interviewing for a job with him, you are dating him. If you’re not going to work together then does it really matter if you don’t see eye to eye on work issues, even if you’re in the same industry? Maybe it does, I don’t know. Just some food for thought. It sounds like you had a great date though, I’m surprised you want to walk away.
