Who has a partner that works A LOT? And how do you keep the relationship (and sex) ALIVE?!

Question

Answer

My husband works 12 hour days 6 days a week, our relationship is pretty much just fine. We both know our responsibilities and where we stand. We have sex when we can when he is home, he has a high sex drive too. If he doesn’t get enough sex he does get frustrated but he understands that life gets in the way of things so we definitely make sure we don’t take it out on each and disrespect one another. I’m actually pretty have with sex once a week haha cause it was a lot more before and I had enough ahah

Answer

It’s definitely a struggle. My fiancé has a much lower sex drive than I do. We have had lots of talks about sex, and we had to find a happy medium for the both of us where we both felt satisfied. So, we always try and have sex 2-3 times a week as a minimum. You and your partner need to just find your happy medium as well. Talk to him and be open about how you feel and how often you’d like to ideally have sex.

Answer

My husband works out of town (about 5 1/2 - 6 hours away) and he’s only home on the weekends, I stay home with the kids so aside from mom stuff all week I like to have everything in the house done by Friday so that when he gets home the whole weekend is about us and our time with the kids 😊 
He wants me to rest and he wants to help with house stuff when he’s home but I feel like I miss out on time with him when we have to spend all weekend doing that crap. Balance 😊

Answer

I work Monday- Friday 7am-9pm. I get a 2 hour break in between but I still don’t see my other half. I then work every other Saturday and every Sunday 8-5. I still make time for mine. I still make time to clean the house. It’s not perfect but at least it’s not nasty either. We have sex before bed. And we spend quality time with one another when we do have time with each other. No phones. We go out on dates even if it’s just to dinner. We also have sex 2-3 times a week after I get off work. I go to bed at 11-12 wake up at 6. And do it all over again. It’s just how you make time for one another. Leave your phones alone and do things together.
