It's an interesting idea, but there was simply nothing likeable about the woman. She was completely selfish and entitled. I understand she suffered from a health condition that she had no control over, but she acted like that meant that everyone else must completely adapt to her, rather than finding some sort of compromise.
The man changed his life completely to suit hers, and she wasn't able to set an alarm the one time he wanted to do something during the day? I mean come on! Even a "normal" person manages to get themselves up out of bed at odd times when they have to, e.g. To go to the airport, or for whatever other reason. "Normal" people like nurses have schedules that change wildly, and they adapt. Couples where one person works days and the other works days manage to make things work. It just takes work, the ability to see things from the other's POV, and the ability to compromise. Is it easy? No, of course not. And sometimes people can't make it work, even though they try. However, these people were supposed to be newly in love. You know, that phase of love where you'd do anything to spend more time with the other person... What's she going to be like 20 years down the road, when love has changed/faded. She'll still be a selfish, entitled brat who throws a tantrum when a restaurant won't make her a custom meal because she wants breakfast at dinnertime.
