Or just wait till she goes to sleep and stay up all night and work when the house is quiet. You might not be getting enough sleep but the money and the will to succeed has to be the motivation to do it.
so....ive been working hard on my first few sites, feeling focused, determined, and optimistic, but my gf of 3 years is stressing the shit out of me about being on the computer "too much".
after i get off work and hit the gym, i have about 3 hours of internet time on week days and as much as need on the week ends, but she is putting a major guilt trip on me about not spending enough time with her. she hates it when im on the computer, so now even when i do set aside work time, i know shes pissed at that very moment and it fucks with my focus. even on the wk ends now, as soon i get up to get on the pc she makes some smart ass remark or sighs or something to let me know she isnt happy about it. on one hand, i can see her point, this thing is taking up a lot of my time and that def cuts into the time we can spend together. on the other hand, ive got some fucking goals and ive got a long ass ways to go. hell, i feel like the time i do have to work isnt sufficient.
not sure what im expecting by writing this, i would just rather vent this out to people who understand the kind of dedication, and damn near obsession it takes to achieve things sometimes. ive tried to explain this to her, but she just doesnt get it. if it were up to her, id just go on with my mediocre 9-5 gig and spend all my time with her.
im sure some of you have similar experiences?...

i was the same way about my now husband. he spent alot of his free time working on his sites and i felt sort of neglected.
i knew he HAD to work so as a way to spend time with him, i started my own website and we worked across from each other at night. the first site i made now makes $xx,xxx.00 a month and it allows me to NOT work. if you can't beat 'em, join 'em...
now we have a business creating sites and monetizing them together. win/win for both of us.
