Woman Stands Firm When Boyfriend Pressures Her to Quit Office Job to Be ‘Free’ and Live Off Grid, Resulting in Ultimatum About Their Relationship

While in relationships, you always want to be on the same page as your partner, share similar values, and even have the same movie tastes. It may seem like petulant or superficial compatibility, but I think they're more important than people realize. I couldn't imagine having dinner with my boyfriend, and being disappointed when I realize he's vegan and we can't share anything. Or having a movie night and absolutely cringing about their movie suggestions. Those are just tastes, what about life values? 

If you and your partner don't share the same life values, things will definitely get tricky. This is exactly the situation in the Reddit thread below. The original poster (OP) is a woman whose boyfriend appreciates…a bohemian, nontraditional lifestyle. Though he has strong feelings regarding how one should live their lives, he pressures his girlfriend to quit her job to be free like he is. Well, push comes to shove, but she doesn't quit in the end.
