I am disturbed by this statement.

Where did you get this idea from? There is no need to feel that you have to be in a relationship to further your career. If you have a good support network of friends and family and lovers. There is no need to think like this. In my experience and from what I have witnessed from my acquaintances. Having a relationship can hinder your work progression more than anything.

Dont be afraid to fly it solo.

If you want a relationship then do so. Good luck to you. But when people sound like they NEED to be in one due to some sort of social pressure, it upsets me. "Behind every great man, is a great woman" is just some pro-feminist statement. It's not to be taken literally.
