My boyfriend and I are too busy. I don’t like it. I don’t even know when this happened. When we started dating five years ago, it seemed like we had time to have a leisurely cocktail at one of our apartments before walking to an even more leisurely dinner several times a week. Not now. Nope—now, we’re lucky to have a night like that once every six weeks. Honestly, we’re just grateful if we are both home and awake for 90 minutes at the same time at night. An hour and a half to focus on each other feels like a gift from God. But, then again, we might be so exhausted that we can barely speak—so we just watch TV, cuddle, and look at each other with the understanding that we’d like to catch up but, we just don’t have the energy. I guess I’d rather have it this way than be a couple who has nothing to do and is always together. But still, it can be pretty crazy. Here are funny moments that insanely busy couples experience.
Saying, “We have sex scheduled for that time”
I’ve openly told people who asked if I could have coffee or drinks at such and such time that, “Oh. Nope can’t do it. My boyfriend and I have sex scheduled during that 45-minute period.” If we don’t schedule sex, we don’t have sex at this point.
