Years ago, when my wife and I are both working, each of us is busy building a career. Though our worked had heavy demands on each of us, it recharged our relationship. I remember, even when we both work on overtime my wife and I would spent time going to the cinema, buying food and drinks and enjoy watching movies on the last full show. It was indeed a refreshing time, an outlet for both us after a tiring day at the office. We would take time to eat at a restaurant or have bowling on weekends. Having time with your spouse is a decision if you want to have a strong marriage. Simple things like sending a text message on break time is an easy thing to do and it will not be a waste of time. A strong marriage requires time and it should be a time well spent.
When both of you are working, stress from work is normal. Try listening to music or drinking a cup of tea or cold juice in a quiet place individually. A place that is far from the thought of unpaid bills and heavy loads of household chores. By giving time for each other to revive yourselves individually, it will prepare you to interact and talk to each other better.
Couples make the mistake of thinking their marriage will somehow take care of itself. However, unless you have the passion about building your marriage relationship, you will not end up with a worthy marriage. Partners who both have good careers usually face a number of complicated choices. Choices like are you willing to resign from your job for the sake of your children? How will you support each other’s professional aspirations? When major decisions like these are present, you need to carefully evaluate the choices and their consequences. Unless you make these tough choices together, you will end up in a struggle over whose career is more important.
