Any man who does this, is a fool. He is asking for trouble. Why would you not want to leave a man like that.
Are you not worth more? Are you not better than all of that? Do you not deserve better than that type of treatment? Go find a real man. One
who knows how to treat a special
woman. A woman of your caliber.

Well I have a hard time believing that this behavior came out of nowhere. I hope you didnt marry him thinking that because you go married it would get better. I hope thats not the case. Assuming you are not married you need to take a long look at what you expect/need out of a relationship and ask yourself if you can live like you are, in second place behind his career, forever. Chances are the answer is no. You have a couple options. Communicate with him in a nonthreatening way and let him know that you love him and want to be with him but you can't continue to feel like you take a back seat to his career and that he owes it to you to either A.) try to make some more time in his schedule for you or B.) Let you go so that you can find someone who is willing to make you their first priority because that is what you deserve. I really wish you would have specified if you were married or just dating/living together because that can make a world of difference in our advice but communication is the key no matter which it is. Don't be combative when you ask him because that will just get him defensive. Reason with him and tell him why you feel the way you do and what compromises you are willing to make in order to fix it. Good Luck

Well, considering my man is in the Navy, no. His job comes first, because it has to. When he's home, he's usually playing computer games, but we hug and kiss first. He occasionally comes over and hugs me, and vice versa. Even when there is little time in the day, it doesn't matter if you go out anywhere with him, it's just the time spent together. Rent some movies and cuddle up for the extent of a movie. It's not much, but it definitely makes a difference.

I'm in the same type of situation. My husband is always working and I hardly ever see him. It does piss me off that I rank lower than work, but I understand why he's doing what he's doing. It's a brand new business that's just getting off the ground and he's doing a lot of stuff beyond his job description at the office. The success of the busines means success for him.

Tell your man that you'd like to go out sometimes. It doesn't have to be a five-star restaurant. Be honest and tell him how you feel. If you don't, the resentment builds up inside you and poisons your relationship. It's a lot harder to resolve things when it reaches this point.

Well I would have to look at the situation as to why he is working so much. I spend a lot of time at work and not with my boyfriend because I am trying to save money so that we can have the life that we want together.

If your man is working hard to provide and do things so that you may have the things you want in your future you shouldn't be mad. But if that's not the case I would figure something out.

You should talk to him and tell him how you feel.

I would not be mad if he works but i would be mad at the fact that he does not try to even spend time with me at all.No one should ever feel alone in any relationship.the word relationship would not exist if it did not involve 2 or more people.Being that you feel this way and its obviously effecting you in away that your torn between giving up or staying, you need to let him know that his access working is putting the relationship in a hole and you don't think you can survive the loneliness and pain of his absence.Say Look,I understand you have to work to pay the bills and to keep things together around here but I'm lonely most of the time and I'm tired of when we (are) together we never do anything exciting like go out to the movies or get bite to eat at a romantic restaurant or take romantic walks on the beach board walk or park or something.Do su-um ni@@a!!The key thing is communication.

It would depend if he's taking care of all the bills at home. He has to work the way he does to support you and home. If you want more time with him and your not working then maybe you should consider getting a job to help him pay the bills. When he sees that then he needs to meet you half way and cut out some of his work hours to spend the rest of the time with you.

Women are too emotional about things and even the most independent woman wants some quality time with her mate. Things would get very lonely quickly because even though she may love him, that lonliness can get annoying. He is asking her to hold back a lot emotionally here, she may begin relying on other sources to fill that void.

Well, if you aren't working, then you should get a job so he doesn't have to work so much! But..if it's not a matter of working for the money..then I'd say I'd be mad!! Any guy who chooses work over his gf/wife/family is avoiding something at home. also, is it possible he's cheating? If not, I would try talking to him about it. After all, no one goes to the grave saying "I wish I would've worked more"...Good luck!!

Perhaps he does not take you out because he is tired trying to support you his wife. Afterall, isn't that what he is doing? If not, then he is using the job to get away from home for some reason.
