Hellz yeah, the answer is to pair up with a climber. You've always got a climbing partner, and someone who's willing to belay you for days while you figure out the sequences on your latest proj, and vice versa. You sleep warmer at night, too. Perhaps having a non-climbing partner would be OK, but both of you would need to be willing to compromise. But if you can't meet in the middle as a couple, you're hosed anyway, so you might as well call it quits and find someone more supportive or understanding or what have you.
