So I really value time. I think that’s why I don’t work a normal job to begin with. I look at it as we have 168 hours a week. We sleep about 63 hours a week(I should say her, I like to stay up a lot and sleep less) She works 40 hours a week+ not including over time hours. That’s 103 hours we don’t spend together plus that’s not including when she goes out on the weekends with her friends. So through life we will spend about 1/3 of our time together. I don’t know about you but I want to be as wealthy as possible and spend as much time with my family and friends as possible before I die. Work less, Play more. Work Smart, not hard.

Ok but if time is so valuable to you, you could work 2 more hours a week and then she could stop working without changing anything about your combined income. And then you could open up a bunch more hours to be together while also giving more time to her to do her own stuff.

If that still doesn’t fit for you, then you might just have different views on how much time you want to spend with a partner.

That’s the point of my post… she doesn’t want to spend more time together lol. She wants to work and loves her job, and now wants even more time apart
