How would you rank the following in importance: family, career, love life? Why?

Career, family and love life. Family and love life are tied.

I think it's just mainly because of my culture. I'm from two countries where people are hard workers and I spend a lot of time working so I'm up all night because here if you don't achieve you don't make it life. So at this time of my life Career is more important but Love life and family are tied because I need to balance out my relationship with my family and with my boyfriend at the same time with me being at university.

I don't know if that really made any sense.

1. Family
2. Love Life
3. Career

All are very important, but family is forever. They’ll always be there for me. It was hard for me to rank the last two, but this is what I came up with 🤷🏽‍♀️ I’ve never experienced romantic love from someone so I don’t know what it’s like to be in love. But when I do, I feel like life would be different. More bright. Unless I’m wrong thenn... WHOOPS. Career is very important, just not as important as the people who’ll be in my life.

Relationships - Family - Career

I couldn't care less about my career but I love my family! I would ever let them get in the way of the one I love though! My girl comes first!

[Sonorous]

would never*

[Slim57]

Family, career, love life. Because I could care less about the last one

Love life, family, career. You need to prioritize your relationship with your spouse above your kids, your parents, friends, career, etc... When your relationship is out of balance everything else in your life will be too. Especially if kids are involved. While family and friends are very important, your relationship with your spouse/ significant other is the most important. Next priority should be your kids and other family and friends. Lastly work. Yes you need to perform well at your job, but your job is not the end all be all of who you are. If you pour your whole self into work you have nothing left to give yourself or to others and you familial and friend relationships will suffer and possibly sever.

1. Family (I only have my mother as close family)
2. My boyfriend
3. Career.

Simple reason, my mother is going to pass away sooner. She is getting older and I need to take care of her. Then my boyfriend whom is the love of my life. career comes last. I would rather prioritize my loved ones.

[coolbreeze]

Sorry to hear about your mom. I hope everything works out. Yes love ones are always important.

1. Family and career ex-aequo
2. Love life

My career determines my ability to provide for my family. So while caring and providing for my family is most important, pursuing my career may be more important than spending time with my family as providing for my family is more important than spending (a lot) time with them.
I d rather be able to buy my future child braces and correct their teeth than going to fish with them every other day.
Love life is 2nd place by a long shot.
Any woman in my life will have to accept that she will never be that she will be the single most important thing in my life. I can't have such egocentric people anyway.

[ChrisHumble_]

Fuck my grammar anyway. My smartphone too.

[Cynicaldreamer]

Hmm...
Career, family, love life

Career because you need a job to support yourself, and others if need me. Basically- you need money to function.
My family comes second as they support my goals and job.

And I have no love life so it's nonexistent to me, lol. But in this instance that's a good thing because it allows me to focus on my career and life more.

*need be

[witherwing]

Family
Love life
Career

I would rank love life and family on the same level, since my boyfriend is a part of my family as well. But my family has obviously been in my life longer. Career is not important to me at all and I only work to pay for my living. I don't plan on building a career at all.

[dantetheexplorer]

Career. Without a career, you will face more challenges trying to take care of the other two. If your parents get ill and you have to take care of them, having a career allows you to do that with less challenges. If you want to have a love life and eventual family, having a career allows you more options in both. Career is the root, the other two are the branches that bear the flowers.

[markscott]

family, love life, career. I love my family, and their welfare is more important that what I want. Love is important in life, it gives life much more meaning that most anything else. Career is important, and I did well in my career, but it was never the most important thing.

[anupamagrawal]

Family > Career > Love Life

Family is what supported me through the years and I can't ignore or go far to make a career, instead I chose to stay closer and work harder to support them when it is my turn.

Career is always important to fulfill your duties for your loved ones...

Why love life after career, without a career how can I ask someone to leave her family and stay with me. It would tear me if I can't make her happy and fulfill her needs.

[jennifer_bloom]

1. Career
2. Love life
3. Family

If I got married one day - I would not mind being a house wife but when I do something related to my career - I give it my best effort and devote all my time to it. I take everything seriously - no matter how small or insignificant it may appear to to others.

[MusicMayhem]

If you don't sort out a career, your family will lose respect for you, as will others. No girl will want you if you're unemployed. Jumping from job to job is too stressful. Having a career plan and earning more money to enjoy life's luxuries sounds rad to me. Certainly trumps being homeless.

[Anonymous]

Family- I love them and they are there for me.

Career-so I could have a stable life to grow and learn while making money and getting a home.

Love life-Now from my career and making money. I finally built my nest to make sure it’s a good home for a future family. But finding the right man is a lot harder than it seems.

[No_Archons]

career, then family, then love life (but really I consider love life and family to be the same thing once I have a family of my own). Career first because without that you can't afford to look after your family, and family before love life because love life is family at it's highest level.

[EmotionOfFear]

Family- The ones you choose to be close to, not always the one you're born into because that one can be shitty. 10
Career- Your life choice? Uh, yah. 9
Love life- Not required, but it is a natural human emotion. It's good to give into it sometimes, as long as you don't get hurt. 8

[lsjr16]

Career family love life. I think because I am 26 and trying to figure out my life that is why it is important. Family is always with me and love life well I think that will come when my career starts. Plus I am not really looking for anyone and summer is about to begin

[Spawnface]

Have none those. But if I did LF, F, C. Generally there's only value to anything after love or family, I'd put love first because family would include people I don't like.

[NerdInDenial]

Career, family, love. You have the most control in career and thus, becomes the most important. You can’t convince others to love you and you do not choose who is blood related to you.

[MemeSupreme]

Family (depending on who in it), love life, career. Some people will always look out for you and money is money it's replaceable but not people

[dannyboy1999]

At the current stage in my life, I think career and love life are tied. As I get older, family will take more priority

[crazycakes08]

Family, love life, career bc I feel like family will always have your back and so will your SO

[anon1903]

none.

I think I come first. Then my needs and wants. Then everything that makes my life beautiful and meaningful.

people come last in my list.
