This goes out to all you married and long term couples. You’ve probably known each other for years, dated for years, and now you live together. It was and still is a very important step in your relationship. But I bet you never thought that living together would actually involve less sex and satisfaction. Why did this happen?
Well, to begin with, the most common problem the majority of couples face is that they put more and more emphasis on their job, and when they finally come home and can spend some time together they usually are too tired or bored to do anything. This can really put a damper on a relationship. So when did this happen? Can you remember how it was when you first started dating? You used to work to make money so that you could go out and have more sex. And now that you are in a steady relationship, and actually live with your partner, you don’t even seem to bother having sex, even though it’s literary just a step away from you.
My point is that your job is only as important as what it can do for you. The moment your job starts interfering with your couple’s sex life, you should stop and think it through and not just grin and bear it. Is being promoted really worth having no one to celebrate it with? Is that extra bonus really worth missing your Saturday morning snuggle inn? Or reading the morning Sunday paper in bead together? I bet if you stop and think, you’ll realize it’s not worth it. But if you truly are determined to focus more on your job and ignore everything else, please have a heart and tell your partner what you truly want so that they can find someone else.
