Are you dating a freelancer? Or are you having a freelancer as a spouse? This can be one of the hardest things to do or situations to go through. If there is one relationship that you will hate to love, it is dating a freelancer. I know you are now thinking the worst about me. But that is right. If you are not married and working online, I’m sure you can attest to this. It is not easy to date someone who works from home and barely has some time for you. If you are planning to date one, here is why you will find it harder than giving birth.

He is too busy
A freelancer is ever working; Yes you heard me right. He is either searching for clients or busy working on the current projects. If you thought it’s only people who work 9-5 who are always busy, you are wrong. There isn’t a time that you will find a freelancer idle. This makes it harder to even have a little time to go out on a date.
You can’t surprise a freelancer
We all love surprises, and we often surprise our loved ones with little gifts. If you are dating a freelancer, don’t ever try that. Instead, you will be the one to be surprised. You might go in and find your fiancee working in pajamas.
Your fiancee freelancer may not respond to your messages
You are used to sending messages and getting replies almost instantly, right? In the freelance world, it is different. Your friend might not respond to your calls and messages that you send. In fact, most of the responses are automated. You won’t like it if you get automated responses throughout the day and an apology at midnight.
He won’t commend your good looks
You went to visit your boyfriend today and expected him to say, “you look fabulous.”You will be shocked to learn that he won’t even look at you. Maybe because you arrived at the time, he was just doing a rush job or having little issues with his computer. Well, that is how we work. We sometimes fail to notice some things around us.
Your wedding day might be rescheduled
A freelancer doesn’t work as a 9-5 employee because he is the boss of his job. But don’t be surprised if he invites you for dinner but ends up leaving you at the restaurant just five minutes after arrival. Not only that, he might reschedule the wedding day several times because he has an urgent project he must complete and beat the deadline.
The night is not always a time for sleep
Are you used to sleeping at night? Dating a freelancer may not be easier for you. We all know that night is time for rest. But that is different with freelancers. He might be working at night because that is the most productive time for him and sleeps during the day.
Your sweet stories may be a total waste
So you went out with your friend the other day and realized he wasn’t paying attention to your stories. Don’t blame him. That is what makes a freelancer complete. He is always thinking about work. He walks around with his laptop and can start working even when you are in the middle of an important discussion.
If you had any intentions of dating a freelancer, you now know that it isn’t an easy task. It is even harder than giving birth. But if you think you can be what your fiancee is, then go ahead.
