Relationships entail that the individual you are with encourage you to be the best person you can be, but what if that person is your downfall rather than your elevation. If the one you're with doesn't support your decisions especially ones that will allow you to be more successful than what is their purpose?
At times your significant other may be jealous of your accomplishments because they haven't achieved there own and you have to be aware of this when it occurs. Misery loves company so if they are not where they would like to be sometimes unconsciously they hold you back. Either way, an expectation of a relationship is to have a supporter when things seem impossible. They encourage you to be the best, work hard and achieve what they know is within your reach.
If you find that the person you're with agrees with you being "small" and not challenging yourself than maybe this person isn't right for you. We all need a kick sometimes and when you have finally reached your goals you will look back and be thankful you were with someone who didn't allow you to settle but encouraged you to be the best you, you can be!

I like what you have to say here, but I need more content. We have heard this stuff before, from our parents and their parents. There has to be another part to the story. Think about how we find the right person, how do we figure out if the person we are talking to is even worth our time. People will always have good and bad qualities. We can break out the scales of justice to figure out if they are better than worse and if we can be a guiding light to their life. Haters come in many shapes, sizes and forms.
I don't think its hard to figure out whose on your team and who isn't. People who are miserable are usually very straight forward about that. I think being with someone is more than having companionship its about having someone bring out the best in you, they allow your light to shine bright without stifling it. GREAT EXAMPLE Barack and Michelle, you cant tell whose driving who to be better, it seems like anatural progression of two individuals. Neither stealing the others shine. That is true companionship, taking the drivers seat or seating in the passenger at any time can be anyones task but there is always movement forward!
