OK i have been with my bf for over a year now and the topic of marriage has came up a few times and we also have a new baby. I love him with all my heart and soul but lately he seems distant he works long hours and when he comes home he eats takes a bath plays with the baby and then goes to be without telling me so much as a good night. Should i be concerned about this or is it normal. We broke up once back in feb and it devistated me i felt like i lost part of me. So why are things to stressful now?

You say he works long hours; is this a fairly recent development? If so, he's probably just tired and maybe slightly depressed, so doing just the bare minimum (eating, bathing, sleeping and playing with baby) might be all he's capable of right now. Obviously he's interested in the baby; that's better than a lot of new fathers these days.
If the baby is really new (like less than 6 months, say) he's just getting used to idea of fatherhood. Trust me, I've been there and it can be overwhelming at first.
Also, is the baby always up when he gets home? If it is asleep, he might be inclined to pay you some attention (ahem!) instead.
As for normal, we all define that for ourselves; but I wouldn't say it was unusual for a new dad to be tired and not really want to be bothered (or to be a bother, for that matter) when he gets home after work. Give him some time to adjust...

I wouldn't necessarily say it's normal. Alot of people just get comfortable after awhile. He may not even realize it bothers you, so you need to tell him. One thing I have learned about men: they are not mind readers and sometimes don't even realize what they are doing is bothering us. Tell him before things get out of control. Communication is key.

I hate to say it but as a wife, My 1st instinct would be he's cheating. I don't want to make u worry but somethings obviously not right. Just come out and ask him whats going on w/him? maybe he's depressed? that could be it also.

A joyful identical-intercourse courting IS a common courting. It's common for a lesbian to be with a girl, simply as it is common for a heterosexual girl to be with a person. Anybody who says that your courting is not "common" is more commonly green with envy.

it's somewhat normal. men are responsible for taking care of the family. sometimes that can be stressful, but we don't want to put that on our loved ones. just talk to him. let him know how and what you are feeling. i can only say this works for me and my wife. talk talk talk.

feel lucky.........he is happy and comfortable with the relationship. but let him know that you would like a little affection now and then.
