Depends. I think that should be everyone’s goal. To work as little as possible and have as much fun with life as they can. just depends on if she’s willing to be a whore to accomplish this.
but the idea of being with someone who doesn't really have anything in their life to invest themselves into and doesn't care doesn't sound very good to me.
Sounds like she is prioritizing herself over her career. Too many people put their entire identity in their job. She values fitness and exercise so she doesn't seem lazy.
That is what is screwed up about society today, we want to demonize people who have fun.
I agree with what this guy says.
Most jobs don't matter and you are lucky if you enjoy your job.
So I've been dating a girl for about 4 months now. She has a lot of good qualities, some being that she is smart and kind and values exercise and fitness. We are both graduate students. However, we were talking recently, and she said one of the reasons she hates graduate school and has no intention of using her degree is that she does not like working and wants to work as little as possible in life. She didn't say the following, but I have also observed that all she seems to really care about is having fun. She doesn't seem to have any real desire to achieve anything, advance her career, get good at a hobby, or anything like that. It's pretty much just all "fun."
What do you guys think about this? I am extremely driven and constantly trying to develop and better myself. I recognize I could probably stand to spend more time trying to just have fun, but the idea of being with someone who doesn't really have anything in their life to invest themselves into and doesn't care doesn't sound very good to me. She also basically has no interest in anything she's doing in graduate school and is just doing it for the credential, which kind of bothers me too. But maybe I shouldn't care? What do you think? We are both ~30 if that matters.
Based on what you said here, she might be wife/mother material. Understand that men and women view work and mission in very different ways. Women often drop out of the labor force to get married or have children. If she is not really interested in working, she might take her duties as a wife/mother very seriously.
Garbage
Nobody wants to work most of us have to. If someone does not want to I'm not funding their laziness.
Having a few years off for kids maybe OK but once they're in school why should you be the only one working.
That said if she is working now actions speak louder than words

Work to live.
Caring about health and fitness doesn’t pay the rent.
This chick is setting up whoever she marries into a life of supporting dead weight.
At least she’s honest….. To the OP - get out now bud. She is telling you that she will not help support her spouse/family.

Do whatever makes you happy OP but most employers could care less about you. Americans are overworked & don't make enough. & that's by design -- dismantling unions coupled with average CEO to worker pay increasing at alarming rates. Why not live to enjoy life instead of live to work for someone profiting a ton off of you. What does our generation have? Imagine paying what your parents did for college & then having their proportional wages & housing prices. It's not that we don't want to work. It's that work used to put you in a much better place.
a) passionate about socialism and b) someone who doesn't want to work at all. Blows my mind people can be so blind/selfish/self-entitled.
Look into Karl Marx, man invented socialism/communism as a way of not working.
Pretty astounding how people walking about spouting such ignorance. Instead of actually learning about Marx/ Socialism/ Communism you are simply parroting right wing talking points.
It's not about "not working" it about who owns the means of production.
These are the kinds of women who never give BJs. Good luck with this one. Once you get attention at work from a new hire and she offers to give you a knobber then YOU will stray.

Yeah, those who own the means of production don't need to work, therefore if one controls the state, and the state takes control of the means of production, and the state is a legal fiction, then the real people running the government don't need to any productive work. So, you chumps go overthrow the government for me, so I can be your new boss, same (really worse) than the old boss.

Oh, c'mon now. Marx simply married a wealthy woman.
1.) never said it was a career but it certain does pay the rent which was your criticism. Sometimes is pays every well.
2.) Hate to break it to you, grandpa, but most people have "temporary" jobs. Avg person has 13 jobs in their life.
3.) Here is the prize purse for the crossfit games. This is one competition and doesn't include sponsorships.
First place: $310,000 Second place: $120,000 Third place: $80,000
That’s three “winners.” What about the remaining thousand who just go home knowing their friends laugh at CrossFit?
Additionally…. From those six figure payouts, deduct a huge amount to be spent on “supplements.” All those Whatever Dottirs have traps bigger than NFL linemen.

Athletes….. lol.
prize money is 40 deep. Better than marathons. Also Take the L and quit moving the goalposts. You were wrong. They get paid more of their sport than you anyways

Depends, hows the sex?
Sex is stellar. She has full body orgaasms literally every time. Sex is easy for me to get, but it is admittedly great with her. Not worth thousands of dollars per year though imo since I can get it for free elsewhere. It is something to consider though.
