My Wife Is Senior To Me In The Same Office. It Hurts My Male Ego. How Do I Deal With It?

Ego is the #1 killer of relationships. It is easy to find a job but more difficult to find a loving partner who will support you during good times and not so good times. Your colleagues are making fun of you because you are not feeling like you and your wife are equals. Here is the new belief that will help you to be a loving partner: I, [add your name], now see and feel my wife as being an equal and therefore we committedly support each other as we grow together as a family and in our careers.

It's a tight rope walk if you choose to fuel the traditional perspective here and a cake walk if you choose the evolutionary one. Life is a trade off, so let's understand: 1. Ego is a sense of self-worth. A job hierarchy comparison with your spouse is not a yardstick to evaluate it, having a good job, in fact, should validate it. 2. Deal with your colleagues like you did with those schoolyard bullies..step back..it's probably a case of sour grapes with them. 3. Bask in the glory of being valued employees, act and feel like the power couple. 4. Your relationship stability depends on your common goals not your individual earnings, you are teammates not competitors. Cross the Ego bridge -Mental peace awaits you!!

The fact is; whether it hurts or it doesn’t, she will remain senior, so focus on your work. Focus hard to elevate yourself, nothing else helps.
