Yeah and frankly it's a bit of a red flag to me now whenever I see one partner sabotage (whether intention or not) the achievements of their significant other. That's not to say that their girlfriend is lacking moral high ground, but rather it may not be an optimal coupling. A good partner will naturally encourage you to be your best self and you will encourage them similarly.
This. The definition of a partner over time shifted from someone who does stuff with me and eats dinner with me and watches movies to someone who understands my goals and dreams and supports and pushes me to get there and vice-versa.
