It sounds like your relationship requires a lot more work and effort, you two can still make time for each other for 'quality time' even if its only 1 day a week. You should schedule a day just for you two, no one else, just you two; or even set a date in the month if your work schedule is too hectic. Without this time to connect properly regularly you'll both start to drift apart.

Hey-howdy-hi! What's up? This is a common problem that a lot of couples go through...And erm, drinking is not exactly the answer to relieve stress. Perhaps Sunday is a good time to be together, or Saturday. Friday night, you'll probably be too tired, but even a few hours of a romantic comedy, some tasty snacks, a little lovin' up on each other, and talking about each others feelings on Saturday morning or Sunday night would treat you well. A few hours can change a stagnant relationship from being drab to fabulous!

Both of you need to sit down and MAKE some time for each other. And don't knock the beer...it helps sometimes to relieve the stress of a hardworked day. My wife and I both work. We always make it a point to find the time for each other, even if it means going to bed an hour later than normal. So, when you get home, go straight to the fridge, pop a top, sit down with your man and discuss the day and how it could be topped off with a night of wonderous sex!
