When men experience success, conversely, their mates celebrate their successes without taking it personally. In fact, researchers found that women "reported feeling happier in the relationship when men succeeded." Does that mean women should stifle their ambition for the sake of their partner's ego? Of course not. Certainly women shouldn't keep their success a secret, nor should they feel inadequate when their mates experience success. So what should you do if he doesn't celebrate your achievement? Not much – his feelings are his problem, not yours. If you're considering marriage, then each of your feelings on traditional gender roles may be something worth discussing before taking the plunge.
