Sadly, this does effect our sex lives. My partner has a steady 9-5, M-F, kinda of work schedule. But he works a third shift at his job, meaning 6pm to 5am

I work in a retail environment, where hours at work, and my days off are constantly changing by a week by week basis. Even if they schedule 3 weeks in advance! >!!!!!!

99% of the time he comes home from work, Ive been asleep for several hours or have to get up in a hour or two. its a difficult schedule, it has effected our sex life to some degree...but not so severely that he doesnt fail to wake me up if he wants it and vise versa.

My boyfriend works the night shift so he usually sleeps all day long. I try to keep the same schedule so we'll always be on the same page but it's tough. Usually around 3-4pm I'm dressed and ready to go do something fun and he's still dead tired. When he finally does wake up I'm super tired from waiting around. I usually like sex in the morning hours and he likes it at night but he's almost alays too tired anyway. We've been struggling with it but at least we get along and we don't fight. It can get annoying though.

Before we used to have sex in the afternoon before the kids got home, now he's coming home and I leave by the time I get home from work we're both to tired and go right to sleep.

Very relevant post for me. I work third shift, she works first. Our sleep and sexual rhythms are on totally different schedules, and it's very difficult to work sex in some times. Not impossible...but difficult.

He's the only one working so this doesn't affect us.

yes. I work early in the morning, and she works in the evenings until late. So we do not have as much time together as we did before she started working.

we have the same schedule...but I have been thinking about the idea of sex dates to help us have more intimacy (we don't do it a whole lot). How does it work for you?
