We’ve all been there: a big project comes up that’s super important to your company (and your career), and it quickly becomes an all-hands-on-deck situation. Work shifts to priority number one, leaving everything else in your life to fall by the wayside. Don’t let a busy work life wreck your relationship. Here’s how to keep the peace at home when your to-do list gets crazy:

One of the first things that you want to do when you’re both crazy busy is compare your schedules. Look for any gaps where you both have an opening at the same time. When you find those gaps, reserve them for time together.
When you can’t find time to be together, you can still text. It only takes a minute to send a text. It’s a great way to say “I miss you” or “Thinking of you today.” It can totally make your partner’s day to receive a text like that.
When you don’t have time for a full date, plan a mini-date. Instead of dinner and a movie, maybe you would grab some quick burgers together or meet for a cup of coffee before you both go to work.
Give rearranging your schedules some thought. Can you switch your work hours up so you’re off at the same time? Take your classes at the same time so you have time off together? These are things that are worth thinking over.
As sweet as a text is, there’s no substitute for a handwritten note. A few little lines to share how much your partner means to you are more than enough. That’s usually the kind of note that gets kept and reread often.
When things get tough in your crazy busy schedule, remember that it will pass. You probably won’t be this busy forever. Knowing that it isn’t likely to be a permanent situation can be helpful and give you encouragement to pull through.
Instead of feeling sad about the time you don’t have, try being happy about the time you do have. It may only be seeing each other once a week but it could be worse, right? Make the most of your time together.
If you are confident that you have found the one, you should want to make small sacrifices for the wellbeing of your relationship. It’s possible to make your loved one a priority and not lose sight of your goals either.
