How Do You Deal With A Spouse Who Brings The Laptop To Bed?
• Ask your spouse why he or she wants to bring the laptop to bed. It might be enough to point out that this behavior has been noticed and is causing you to feel that it’s coming between you both, or preventing you from sleeping with all the fan whirs, email pings, and keyboard tapping! • Assess your spouse’s reasons with kindness. If it is something like “because I’m too tired to do all this work at my desk”, then kindly suggest that they have their priorities out of whack. If they’re too tired to keep working, they’re too tired period, and doing work in bed isn’t going to improve things. Same goes for being “too sick”, “too excited about something online”, “too engrossed”; there is a time and place for everything! • Keep the talk light-hearted Have a good talk. Let your spouse know that you don’t like having the laptop in bed with the two of you, and that you consider the bedroom is not the place for a computer.
