Take both paths! You can have a great relationship AND build your dreams at once! Did Bill Gates divorced with his wife? No. Did it prevent him from pursuing his dreams wth microsoft and his foundation to help poverty?
"He met his wife in 1987 at a Microsoft press event in Manhattan. She was working for the company and later became one of the executives in charge of interactive content."
Bad example. Bill Gates was notoriously work-obsessed. I remember reading about how in the 80s he had a girlfriend who left him because of what he called "8 hour turnarounds", meaning he had to be at work 8 hours after he left it. He didn't get married until he was the richest man in the world. (I think. Wikipedia says 1994. At any rate he was certainly a billionaire by then.)
