spouse working on nights..

what if your spouse’s nature of work is such that he goes to work at night..or works from home at nights five days a week or six maybe…that takes out weekend only…sleeps the day and can only spend evenings with family etc..will it disturb u ?? how will it change your lifestyle?? or it wont bother at all??

Re: spouse working on nights..

If you are not working, you can flex a little bit of your time to spend time with him. Like you can also be up till late night and sleep in late during day.

Off course this is only possible if you dont work and you dont have school going kids or other family members who need your assistance during day time.

If its something that your spouse has to do for a longer period of time then you get used to the routine. As long as I remember, my dad has worked night shifts.. umm for the last 10 years at least. We got used to that routine and so did my mom. You adjust your life accordingly.
My husband is doing night rotations for the past few weeks and its not easy. I am not used to that anymore. Its a temporary thing. If it is something he had to do forever, then maybe things would be different.

You adjust.

wont bother at all.

if i'll get a chance to have that routine of night shifts then i will do it too....if good money is coming then why not.

It's gotta suck though. I can imagine sex life being affected.

Re: spouse working on nights..

initially it might be inconvenient but you adjust. Aren't evenings the best time to spend as a family together?

Re: spouse working on nights..

I hope this isn't something that's for the long term. You'll be able to adjust eventually if spending time together/ hanging out is concerned but graveyard is just not good normally. People can't function at their optimal best. Their circadian rhythm is thrown out of whack and there are certain hormones that are produced during the night when one is sleeping that get affected.

Not to scare you or anything... inshallah it's not for the long term.

Re: spouse working on nights..

Nights are made for something else...

Re: spouse working on nights..

If anything watching movies on Lifestyle has taught me, it's that if your spouse is working at nights, then he is cheating on your. That, and if he is a doctor, then he is cheating on you. Oh and don't let baby sitters into your house, they will seduce your man who is a doctor and works nights.

For people who have never seen Lifestyle channel, consider yourself lucky. It's a TV channel for womyn (and gay men), and every movie tends to play on womyn's insecurities. If it's not husband cheating, then it's man in the attic. If not that, then it is getting fat or ugly, or something related.
