When work gets in the way of your relationship.

          Most of the time our relationship is build around our work schedule.  Designed by us so we get the most out of our relationship working around our schedule.  Sometimes however work will creep up and foil our plans.  Maybe it is mandatory overtime, or a problem that demands your attention.  These things happen and we can get mad about them and stomp and curse our bosses and our companies for taking our precious and valuable relationship time away.  However, for starters most couples need the job that you are having to work.  You can look at it angry or you can see that this little road bump is showing you how important your relationship really is.  Sure it isn't going to be fun working when you could be with your family and partner.  It will show you the next time though how important it is to plan and experience all the time together you can.  So go do your work and return knowing your relationship can grow from this.
