Being with a workaholic partner is no easy task given their hectic lifestyles, hurried pace of existence and always a jittery moment.  If you are very much in love, there is nothing much you can do but grin and bear. These little tips will help life sail smooth. 1. Be realistic Understand the nature of their work. If your partner is working in a high-powered job or something similar, they are bound to spend more time at work than at home. When you try and understand your partner's nature of work, it becomes easier for you to deal with it. 2.Do not be a wet blanket Do not go on complaining, cribbing and being grumpy the whole day.
