If you’re a woman planning to take of the world, one of the most important decision you’ll ever make is choosing the right partner.
To avoid a regretful union due to your ambition, here are some relationship traits your partner must have.
A respect for women
There are men out there who simply do not believe a woman can achieve anything on their own. You must avoid them at all cost. Why? If you’re married to someone who underestimates or disrespects women, he is unlikely to support you or celebrate your wins. In fact, he will put a lot of effort into belittling you and you will find yourself in an abusive marriage.

Confidence
Your man does not have to be as ambitious as you, but he must never see your success as an automatic reflection of his own failure. Only a man who’s confident and secure in his masculinity will be able to cheer you on without constantly comparing himself to you.
Selflessness
One of the most important relationship traits you should look for in a man is selflessness. He has to understand the importance of sacrifice and be willing to do what he can to help you. A selfish man will only think of himself and if that’s the case, there won’t be any room for you and your needs.

Intelligence
Chances are you’re intelligent and that’s why you can’t wait to achieve so much. But you also need someone by your side to talk to, someone that mentally stimulates you. If you are with a less-than-smart man, you’ll find yourself seeking that mental stimulation outside your marriage. You and your partner should be able to have smart discussions if you really want to fire up your ambitions.
