I find ambitious men extremely sexy. Maybe it’s the sweat on their brow when they’re working late into the night, or their suaveness when they’re trying to sell their idea to a potential client. As interesting as ambitious men are, I’ve noticed a very big limitation to dating an ambitious man.
Ambitious men are usually very busy because they are focused on building their empire and are working on reaching their goals. As a result of their busy schedule, it is hard for them to find the time to date. There was a great guy I knew, and after we met each other the first time, we exchanged emails over the course of three months to try to plan a day to meet again. Three long months. And guess what? We still haven’t made concrete plans to meet. Each time he sent me an email, he made it clear to me that he’d love to meet me again, and he would proceed to ask me what my schedule was like. And each time I responded, it took days for him to respond, and each time would end with him apologizing because he had business functions or meetings with clients at those times. And thus, this went over and over again for months until I decided that I probably would not be very happy to date a guy with such a full schedule.
On the other extreme, I’ve briefly dated a guy who was finishing his degree at school. He quit his last part time job a few months ago and didn’t bother looking for a new one, so with just one part time course, this guy had a lot of free time. He was always demanding to see me while I was busy with work. Thoughts like, “Oh my god, Can’t you go and find a job?? Please??” ran through my head.
Nevertheless, both situations didn’t work out. I realize you can’t have someone who has plentiful time and lots and lots of ambition (as I have yet to meet him). And as much as I adore ambitious men, I also need someone who has the time to spend with me. It seems I need to find a balance between the two!
