A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Me and my boyfriend that live together for a year and a half together almost for two-hardly see each other anymore.as of recently we have both been working a whole lot 50 hours a week each with one day off together, as for the other days I get up at 430am every single day and he gets home at 2am and bed at 3-430am, so we don’t see each other AT ALL while awake those days. It’s been like this for 3 months or so and we have only had sex maybe once in that timeframe- I don’t even think of sex anymore and don’t feel as close, is this normal? Any tips on What can we do to feel close and for me to have a want to have sex again? Neither of us can afford to cut or change hours

Could one or both of you try to change your jobs to get better hours? I know you said you can't afford to cut your hours but by cutting down on some of your expenditures would you be able to? Like if you move somewhere with cheaper rent?

If neither of you can change job or hours, you just will have to make do with what you have , which isn't that terribly little , after all : one day off a week for sex ,romance and companionship. It could be worse. You could be long distance,for instance. I know it does not sound much as advice , but you've got to be realistic , if there's no way to make changes at work, then you have to make the best of what you can have. Cut all the unnecessary distractions, at least for a few months ( visits to relatives,non-mandatory social events , dyi projects etc. ) and really focus on each other .
