Breaking up is never easy.
But sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. This is especially true if your significant other works on Wall Street — and starts to show some very telling warning signs.
We get it. Finance is a demanding job. Your boyfriend or girlfriend might be busy, stressed, stretched to the breaking point, and not be fulfilling all his or her duties as your significant other. But there's a point at which the behavior becomes unacceptable.
To help you out, we've created a list of some common indicators that you're headed for trouble. If your significant other starts exhibiting any of these signs, you'd better run for the hills.
They start chewing tobacco.
The trading floor is a place where nasty habits go to breed and thrive. Because traders can't smoke there, sometimes they chew tobacco to get the buzz without having to go outside.
This is not OK.
They have only condiments in the refrigerator.
Ketchup is not a vegetable. This is not up for debate.
They use only Wall Street jargon.
Bankers have their own language, and it's all based on money, deals, and trading.
For example: "Upside of going to the Hamptons this weekend is that James is throwing a party at Pink Elephant, downside is that he's inviting my ex."
If your significant other talks like this about ... basically anything, let him or her go.
