Definitely not easy :) You usually don't have much time outside work during the first 4 days of the work (even if you are not traveling). One important thing is to make sure your girlfriend is aware of the nature of Consulting and is supportive of your ambitions. Having a partner can be a great thing to cope with the stress & burnout of this job. All this being said, usually consultants date consultants because of these reasons...
