Stress is the problem we are facing now in our relationship with my boyfriend. Lately, he had been so busy with his work and rarely have time to communicate in longer time with me. How I wish, we can have more time chatting with each other. I am very tired too because of my job as a teacher and talking to him makes me relax somehow. But as of now, we cannot talk much.I feel so much stress now and I wish we can have more time.Unfortunately, as of now, I feel so sad that I feel my partner have some difficulties talking with me because of work.

How do you handle stress in your relationship? What do you usually do to overcome those stuffs?

Hi Annie, I hope you find some way to reduce your stress level as it is not good for your health to handle so much stress. It sounds like you guys work opposite shifts so this would be a problem for daily communication but it should make the time you do have to spend together even more special. Try to get together at least once a week. Then relax with friends or read to relax. This might be a good time to rekindle your friendships with people you stuck on the back burner as there seems ti be so many women that get so wrapped up with "the butfriend" they forget about friends and family. Peaceout and blessings.

Send messages letting him know that you are thinking about him. This might seems insignificant to you but it will let him know that even though you are not spending alot of time these little messages still fills the gap. Communication is the key of all relationship and when this starts to break down then a lot of things starts to happen. Don't take the busy scenario as one to lapse. happy

There are sometime that you both must consider the reality. He has to maintain his job. Your job is equally important. So stay there. Just see what happens.

Some personalities are more resistant to stress than others. Certain people have personality traits that cause them to over respond to stressful events.

I recognize that the stress in the relationship is a test to make sure that we can endure a lasting life together. If the stress is too difficult and the relationship breaks, then I'd have to move on. Being together with my guy for almost 10 years now, it still has its emotional stress. We just know that it's there to make us stronger as a couple.

You really have to ask yourself, it is honestly worth it? What am I gaining from being in this relationship? Does the happiness out weigh the stress that he adds to your life?

Personally, when we are arguing or getting into a heated discussion, I say I need an hour to cool myself down. Usually I'll take a walk or go somewhere else even if I just go into a different room and watch tv. Anything to take my mind off of what is stressing me out.

Hope you'll find what works best for you! Good luck!

Ohhhh I know what you're talking about. My boyfriend has been working a lot lately so all I get is a minute here or a minute there. Definitely not enough, from my perspective. But it is what it is. Either that or not have him at all. So it's definitely worth staying for me. I know it's temporary (I hope, according to him). But we'll see, I guess.

What I've done in the past and still doing when I miss him terribly (i'm very crafty - paper type) is I've created him an "I Miss You" card. Which actually takes quite a good long time, so that passes some time. Then I just write. Sometimes he gets the card, sometimes he doesn't. I've created a lot of paper-craft things for my boyfriend. Sometimes, I just don't feel like giving them to him.=P

I also run to minimize stress - but that's more personal.

Good luck!
