Working on different shifts: how to maintain the relationship?

She says her boyfriend works nights even on weekends and is always tired.

Doctor, I work during the day and my fiancé works at night, including weekends. When she’s out, she’s a mess. What can we do to keep our relationship healthy?

It’s really a challenge! You work during the day and at night you are more available. Your boyfriend works at night and, possibly, during the day he rests, or is very tired.

Your relationship, both emotional and sexual, could be affected by this difference in your work rhythms. What do I recommend? Try to enjoy these days off in a more relaxed way: for example, you can stay at home more, or go out for a walk, if this helps reduce the stress and difficulties of daily life.

It is important to take advantage of these moments of rest to recover energy and try, as far as possible, to re-establish emotional, emotional and sexual coexistence.

If all this is very difficult, perhaps it is worth considering, in the medium or long term, the possibility of both of you working at the same time, or taking advantage of holidays or longer breaks to try to make up for it.
