No ;-) You need to balance it as good as possible, love life, family, 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!

No, my boyfriend (now husband) has been my co-founder for 3 years now.

Personally, me and some of my other guy friends have not been able to maintain a relationship while working on a startup.

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.

It's been difficult at times, but like ToniVlaic said, you need to try your best to balance relationships, friends, family, and health.
