I have had a girlfriend for the last two and a half years.
During that time she beacme insanely successful. And I am having difficulty being as successful. Whenever I am with her, I feel so small. :-( I have been trying to be a little less egotist for almost a year. The more I think about it, the worse I feel. We have talked about it. She says that though she would not like us to separate, but if I wanted to break-up, that would have to be my decision. I would have to leave her, beacuse she "can't leave me'"
We love each other. That is precisely the reason, we have been in a steady relationship despite both of us knowing this problem. But this thing has been eating me up for almost a year now.
Please, someone, help me. :-(

From what you are telling us she is not the problem, your self esteem is. I strongly suggest seeing a counselor or getting some therapy sessions. After that you will know what truly is bugging you. If you truly love her, why break up with her? Good luck.

Don't break up with her because she is successful! Work harder to be as successful as her, if that's what you want. I personally don't see why that's such a big deal. Just be happy with your woman, don't let money ruin a good thing. If you two really love eachother, money doesn't matter. My girlfriend makes more than me now, but it wasn't always like that. It won't always be like that either. There will be times when I make more than her, and when she makes more than me. Who cares? Not me, and not her.

the decision is yours.
It's crazy to break relationship because of you feeling small.
Take heart, if you work hard and think positive, things will look up on you slowly.
You should be proud of her rather than upset or jealous and one day, you will do well too.

If you love her it should not matter if she is more successful than you are. If you love her and she loves you. you need to stay with her.
