I am in that situation now but the good thing is I am able to balance everything. I never hear any complaints from my employers and my partner. I always make it sure that I give my best in both worlds.

career is the number one priority cause it gonna bring money and without money life and even love become impossible. the other partner should understand this equation very well and think twice before asking such a thing. well, there is an exception, if the own business thing gonna bring a good amount of money like the old job and it is 100% guaranteed, there is no wrong to go for it and it is better since it is gonna give time to enjoy life and be with the family. the bottom line is, it is all about money.

Well career comes first because our relationships depends on our careers. If your career is good and you are getting always success then the relationships also are very effective and it also gives you good knowledge of the working so that you can join business when you feel you have got enough skill to excel in your business.
