Dating as a business owner/busy professional – genuine discussion

Hello everyone, hope you all are having a great Sunday!

I would really appreciate your valuable feedback on a thing. Let me give you some background to why I am asking this question since it's about dating as a business owner/busy professional which is a bit off topic but something I believe is very important for us business owners.

Many of my friends who are running their own businesses or working on their career feels just like me the excitement working on their businesses/career. It is easy that some parts of life get less attention. The part that many feels is most sacrificed is their social life, and to be more specific their dating life.

We have discussed the challenges of balancing the time for it, meeting people who don´t quite understand your mindset or busy schedule and finding that right person for you. I hate to see amazing people like them miss out or not feel truly happy with this amazing part of life just because they have ambitious work life goals.

I have realized that this is something I am very passionate about helping others with and I plan to do that in the future. Before I can start I want to truly understand the situation and challenges for us business owners when it comes to this. That is why I am asking for your valuable feedback.

Can anyone relate to this?

What are some of the challenges dating as a busy professional/business owner? (This doesn't have to be because of what you do for a living but can also be more general challenges we experience.)

What would you wish to improve the most when it comes to this part of life?

I understand that this is a bit private topic so if you don´t want to comment but still want to add some valuable input feel free to send a message. It will of course be kept only between us. There will be no sales pitch coming at you. I just want to hear about people’s experiences. Thanks so much and looking forward hearing your thoughts!
