Does Anyone Have Any Successful Relationship Stories Out of Undergrad Into IB?

Wanted to spread some lightheartedness on this thread since I’ve seen a good amount of negativity this week.

Does anyone have any successful relationship stories that started in university. Everyone says how tiring the industry is, and how you have to make time for others. Curious to see if any relationships survived!
