How many of you out there find that you can have a ...decent relationship with someone in/outside of your own field of endeavor? In my experience, I've done best with someone who has the same GENERAL educational background as I, but is not involved in the same job area. I'm an Engineering Writer, which gives me a background in English and also EE. My current SO is na EE; if he wants to discuss the latest software bugs he's fixed, I can understand what he's talking about...but I won't argue back about how I woulda done the fix differently.... ingrid
