Dating : You Should Be More Important than Your Partner’s Job

h2>Dating : You Should Be More Important than Your Partner’s Job

The most obvious reason is that intimate relationships are beneficial for your health while workaholism doesn’t only deteriorate the workaholic’s wellbeing but also leads to relationship conflicts. When the workaholic is the man, it also perpetuates gender and power inequality.

Fancy some evidence?

This Harvard study found that, regardless of social backgrounds and life experiences, more socially connected men are happier, healthier, and live longer. They also have sharp memories well into their 80s if they’re in a securely attached relationship. The findings were also presented powerfully in this famous TEDTalk.

Another study on happy marriages found that “being married could improve your likelihood of surviving a heart attack and is associated with reduced length of hospital stay.” On the other hand, workaholism has been found to be linked with work stress, regardless of gender, and negative states, “such as anger, contempt, disgust, guilt, fear, and nervousness”, which are further linked with anxiety and depression.

Also, if you look up common regrets in life, working too much and not spending enough time with loved ones are usually at the top.
