[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s totally great that sex and couple times are priorities for you, but just FYI, OP-“only” having 90 minutes a day of time with your DH per day is actually A LOT lol. My situation is not as complex as yours but many days DH and I don’t really get any couple time. 90 minutes would actually be very high for us on an average day.

Everyone should set their life up the way they want, but just so you’re aware, I don’t know of any couples with two jobs and young kids who: (1) spend significant time together every single day (as in, more than 30 minutes so); (2) have an active sex life; (3) work out every single day. In fact, I’d say I don’t actually know ANYONE who has the above.

It’s totally ok to prioritize those things, but your expectations of life at this season of life strike me as a bit unrealistic. You really can’t have it all. Most working parents with jobs and young kids are sacrificing sleep, exercise, sex, time together, house cleanliness, career progression, time with friends, etc.[/quote]

What is this couple time? Is this time after kids go to bed?

Why not work out together? Or why can’t Dh work out when op puts kids to bed?

I think what is more rare is for one person to work out everyday.[/quote]
