10 Things You Should Know Being a Workaholic Partner
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. They have their
own tensions. Being negative tends to aggravate the situation for both of you.
Look at the positive side and try to cheer up. This way they will be grateful
to you for being supportive. Positive reinforcement always comes out a winner.
3.Quality
versus quantity
Spend
quality time with your spouse. Weekends are the best time to be together and
bond together.
4.Spring
a surprise
Unexpected
gifts are the most cherished. Your partner will relish the moments when you
surprise them with a nice home-baked cake.
5.Don't
compare yourself with others
Everybody's
priorities are different and everyone has different work goals. If your spouse
is working hard and spending more time at work, it means they are concerned
about improving the way of life the two of you lead.
6.Ask
your partner to spend time with you on weekends
Make
good use of weekends by being together and doing things that will help the two
of you bond better.
7.Surprise
them at times
You
can surprise them with a visit during lunch or coffee breaks. Bring a cup of
warm coffee along with muffins that will brighten the day.
8.Do
not force responsibilities.
The
worst that you can probably do to your partner is always reprimanding that they
have responsibilities. Understand that they remember their role, but just may
be unable to give enough time to it.
9.Establish
a fixed routine
Simple
habits like walking together or cooking in unison can keep the communication
rolling for a happy time. Decide on how much time both of you can spend on an
everyday basis.
10.Find
mutual hobbies
Hobbies
a couple do together helps them connect.
Thus
following these steps will definitely ease your life with a workaholic and you
will emerge a winner.
