When you're in a relationship? Does your profession make an impact on your relationship or dating life in good or bad ways?
Schedule wise
Some people work weekends nights holidays are even on call 24/7
Some people work regular hours and well like teachers have summers off but bring home so much work
The wages too earn can sometimes be good or bad and job security
The computer techs bein the main repair guy even at home
Construction workers would be so damn tired but fit too
My husband used to work 80-hour weeks when we were newlyweds. It was horrible.
Some jobs, you just have to accept that you are "marrying the job." Doctors have their "on call weekends." Fire and police spouses know the risks involved. A preacher's spouse knows that their weekend starts on Monday, etc.
Yep, I posted in another thread that I used to date a pilot. We tried to rekindle it again this year, however with us living 4 hours apart and his erratic schedule it just didn't jive. I work a typical 9-5 Mon-Fri job, and it seems he's in a different time zone every day of the week.
Yeah, I dated a service member. Not the lifestyle for me. It takes a lot of patience and understanding to date someone in the military because their job will always come first. I learned that pretty early on.
It sure does. Stress, hours on the job, and travel all can take their tolls. Plus certain professions attract a certain kind of person. Hey, I cut my teeth in the biz at a company that had 27 employees. There was all kinds of boozing, dope-smoking, and fooling around going on.
I mean, there were three separate affairs between employees while I was there. After one two hour margarita lunch, one of the senior staff members was going around to all the guys in the office, closing their doors and demanding they do her on the desk. There were client trips to strip clubs, you name it.
Hell, during my three years there, I had four different female staffers make passes at me. But I kept my nose clean, something I regard as a minor miracle, given how much partying was going on around there.
I don't know if I would say that it affects the "outcome" of the relationship - but everything about us affects the relationship itself.
Outcome is the wrong word I used I mean like impact. I know every job affects us but im asking if it does affect your relationship/dating life in a good or bad way?

I guess I don't think of it as good or bad. It is what it is. I've had good relationships and I've had not as good relationships - and I've had the same kind of job/jobs through all of it.
