Personally, me and some of my other guy friends have not been able to maintain a relationship while working on a startup.<p>I'd actually be curious to see if among entrepreneurs who have worked on a startup and also maintained a successful relationship with their significant other, if there's a statistically significant difference between male and female founders.
I would say "tested" would have been a better word.<p>It's been difficult at times, but like ToniVlaic said, you need to try your best to balance relationships, friends, family, and health.
No — my boyfriend of 4 years is also an entrepreneur and we both understand the demands of the business. My startup is stronger due to his support and help as well!
