How do you stay connected with your busy partner?

[freelancermaria]

There will always be days when we are very busy at work. It is indispensable that we stay connected with our partners, even by doing a slight gesture that can make him or her smile and still feel loved and cared about. It can be preparing his or her office lunch or sending a sweet message. How do you stay connected with your busy partner?

I try to stay connected by keeping communication simple and steady. A few short messages during the day, a quick call when we’re both free, and making sure we set aside some time every week to catch up properly. It keeps things warm without adding pressure.

I am a busy mad, I work all day long, even during weekends. However, I work from home and my wife is stay at home mom, we have a 3 years old kit to look after. Since we both are at home, there is no issue in connection.

I'm very busy.

If I were to ignore time with family, I could easily get too busy to notice anyone.

But that sounds depressing. I wouldn't want to even entertain the idea of what that would be like.

So, I make time for my wife.

I make sure that any content days (hiking) include her with me and I take my time so she can enjoy it. I eat with her at the kitchen table and talk. I text her throughout the day. We're close and we stay close.

I think more people need to practice that.
