I don’t have any friends I can openly talk to about this without them judging my husband so here it goes,

My husband works very hard, 4 12s in a row every week in the coal mines so during those days we don’t see each other much let alone get intimate. On the 4 days he’s off we usually only get 2 nights of intimacy because I work as a photographer, im college online and I’m a stay at home mom to our 3 year old.

I have to choose between sleep, school, editing my clients stuff and intimate time. Is it wrong of me to want sleep sometimes over intimacy? I know he has needs but I’m exhausted.

He gets mad when I don’t want to every time our son is asleep or I won’t get up at 6:15 when he gets home in the morning. Mind you our son goes to bed around 2/3 due to my schedule.

I just needs words of encouragement or advice.
