Yor friend should ask herself if they could probably meet in between or if she could accept a guy who is like that for a husband. If not, it would probably be if they just break up so they can meet people who are suitable for each of them.

Another thing is she should ask herslf what's more important for her, ambition or her love for her bf? The answer to this will depend on what action she must take.

choclatee,

I think I've said this before...the key word is always compromise. If they can't do that they probably don't have a happy future together, one of them will always be unhappy with not being able to live their life the way they wanted to,

This differences could make them unhappy in the future. So unless they can come up with a compromise now it would be better to separate ways now.

The ambition or lack of it will get in the way of their relationship in the future. It's best that they settle this now. If they can't compromise, they have to accept that they can never be happy together so they have to break up now.

I wonder how did they get along so well to be lovers in the first place!
If your friend feels that she cannot see a future in the relationship then it should be left for her to decide. If she doubts, then there would be problems cropping up in the future for sure.
So, first ask her if she can lower her ambitions a bit and can live with her boyfriend adjusting to his way of living. The same should be asked to her BF.
Ask them to think about it and come to a decision.
Opposites attract, but this attractions should not cause friction.

Well, things will be different when they get married. They have to deal with serious issues and if they can't settle these issues now, it will be hard or even impossible to do when they are already married. They must learn to compromise if they want the relationship to work. If they can't really reach an agreement now, then they better separate.

they should talk about it and try to find a happy medium, what exactly are her expectations? Most couples can work with one being more abitioss then the other.

I think they need to learn to compromise on this issue. But if the husband will be supportive of her going for what she wants and she on the other hand, can handle her husband having a lower ambition, maybe it could work out.
