#1. The Programmer's lifestyle is Unhealthy

Most programmers' jobs are more like sitting on the butt all day even though they know the human body is not meant for sitting 8-10 hours without any break. And the junk foods they swallow without any natural protein or green vegetables, they suffer a lot in their later life for sure.

This is how this profession works. So they deal with stress and depression a lot, and as a partner, you will have some of those side effects too.

#3. Don't get bored when they play Games

Most of the programmers are more like gamers!

Do I even need to write anything about it? They got this whole new level of playing games. Expectations are not examples, though.

If they are between 18 and 30, they may spend way too much time playing video games. If you aren’t into video games, you’ll probably feel irritated all the time.

Another alternative is to become a gamer yourself, which will make you doubly attractive to your boyfriend.

#4. They can't say 'NO' easily because of their habits!

#5. Be ready to keep mum

There can be lots of days when you literally can not speak to your programmer partner because they would be busy thinking of some bug that they didn’t manage to solve.

It’s so common to daydream about programming programmers. They can not help themselves with it.
