Been there, done that. Eventually you grow to hate the job too, and will become bitter and angry. Good luck with that. 👋
fix it. find a common ground. if you're stuck together might as well work on your interpersonal skills. might not work with this one but might improve your relationships overall
I learned that you have to just push through it. Even if that means working harder... but people will notice. And at a certain level you have to show maturity and try to fix it. Try, try again. If it doesn't work then complain to someone and tell them all the steps you've taken to try and fix it.
It probably is.

Yeah I don't hate my CW on a personal level. But he is really hard to work with and it is dragging me down to the point we are both in a delicate situation with my boss. And I don't want to put the blame on him. Don't want to lose my job either.
I’m in this same position. I don’t hate my partner as a person but she doesn’t want to push anything creatively. Which leaves the majority of our ideas lacking and sub par. I’m afraid she’s holding me back and I have no idea how to fix it.
^I’m basically at a point where I’ve tried everything I know to get her to open up. I’ve started taking on projects alone to separate myself from her.
Starting to land in this area as well. I feel like I'm carrying my partner through life. Like his mom...
I feel you JAD1, I give him hw and he never does them. It's a one person party.
Anyone with partner issues: Talk to your supervisor if possible. If your issues are affecting your work, chances are they've noticed. There's a shot they can separate you.
GCS1, I hope I wouldn't hate the industry, I want to fix it.
