TigerLilly78 Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 So my guy works over nights one would think this would be great for me as im a long time insomniac..lol but how ever im finding it rather hard to play swing shifts with my sleeping patterns. For instance when hes working I sleep nights for the most part and get up early to see him in the mornings. How ever when hes off we are pretty much up all night and sleep during the day im hopeing my body will get use to this but its getting hard. I want to keep on his schedule when I can to spend as much time together as we can but its taking its toll anyone else ever dealt with this? and how what did you do?
CarrieT Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 I lived with a man for 11 years who worked 6:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. It sort of worked for us because he would come home from work and want to decompress for a bit. I would get up early - about 5:00 a.m. and we would have breakfast together. He would go to bed and I would go to work. If I rushed home, we could have a quick dinner together before he went to work and I had my evenings to do homework, create artwork, or hang with my harem of GayBoys. Then we had weekends together which mostly involved me still waking up early in the morning and waiting for him to wake (around noon) for brunch. Honestly, our relationship would have ended a LOT sooner if we had had more waking hours together, but the fact that I didn't see a lot of him sort of made it more like having a very convenient roommate that I didn't see as often but who would take out the trash and feed the animals; leaving a lot of time to myself and with my friends.
Author TigerLilly78 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 Thanks for the reply carrie yeah I know what you mean I do like my alone time at night most of the time. Mine works 10-7 so it makes it hard even cause I have a small window at night after he goes to work until I have to be asleep to function in the morning after a while I can adjust to that tho. Im now finding its when he gets his nights off and hes up all night and im trying to as well thats killing me..I swear it seams he can swing his sleep all over the place and I could once to but now well into my 30s it seams harder..*sigh*
