A woman we'll call Emily once said he felt a sense of relief in the morning when her husband, Brad , went to work . The problem started with the fact that they work very different schedules.

who preferred to sleep until the last minute before it was time to get the kids to school - he was awake which was connected to caffeine and started talking , pontificate , or even lectures on politics , things they would work or anything else , got up this morning. Emily was the most convenient target .
The result? Sleep, de- caffeinated Emily - who has not been initiated to discuss further, let alone world events felt like she was attacked with diatribes morning and must respond. At this time, all I could really think about fixed breakfast for the kids .Moreover - and this is the point - key, just not on a personal level , as interested in some of your favorite topics , so to speak . Even at night , when he arrived, some of the same issues will resurface. He was fascinated by the rapid development of faster and smarter computers. He had strong political leanings. A teacher was frustrated public policies on education, which , he said, was not the best for the children he taught.
The list is endless , and when Emily boring ( because, of course , sometimes it was ) , he was frustrated.Couples, even support us, we can not wait to hear or feel the same passion - all topics , so that their problem was not unusual, but none of the solutions was so complicated that that. One day , Emily has only tried to explain to Brad that he agreed with almost everything he says about politics , etc ( although he admitted that his interest in computer technology was almost zero). She did not feel so strongly about them and had different ways of expressing their opinions. He added that the rants of special morning it felt like an affront to the senses.
At first, Brad fell ill and accused of being disinterested in the world around her, but she was encouraged to find friends and colleagues who have similar beliefs or even get involved in local politics a win- win, because he might try to take a decision about the things he believed , while finding new markets for their passionate about their feeling.
In a healthy relationship, your partner is often out, listen to their frustrations , beliefs and observations about what is happening in and out of her personal life. But often it does not work for them the only way out , especially when passions are perfectly aligned.
As for the difference in the preferences of planning, it was the easiest to solve. Emily admitted being the author to do the opposite : be careful to choose the last possible minute , when Brad was ready to go to bed , to raise questions about the preschools , a leaky roof, or what happened to be on your mind Both agreed to accept that Emily was not ready to talk before 7 am, and Brad was made for the day until 10:30 pm .
The respect that has different communication styles (as well as circadian rhythms ) , and work to find others who share his zeal on the issues can take a lot of pressure on your partner and the relationship , so that instead of focusing their differences , you can celebrate while focusing on what they have in common .
