I need my significant other to have a life of their own. This means their own friends, recreational activities, and dreams. I would never want someone to dive into a relationship with me and sacrifice everything else they have going for them. I work a seasonal job where I travel a LOT and so finding time with my girlfriend is difficult (especially since she works too). It would be amazing if we had more time together or were geographically closer but I really wouldn't change a thing. Some of my peers have girlfriends visit a lot or wives living with them who don't work or have their own social circles, but I just don't think I would be able to really love with someone who would sacrifice their entire life for me.
